Oh and I hate to break it to you, we already see over 600K sexual assaults a year in the US.

Yes, he is.

And that excess of emotion is causing him to think irrationally, buck logic, and spew strawman arguments.

One cannot be a PC BS liberal and think critically, which is why they must lie, deflect, etc...

Oh the irony.

What's the straw man argument again?

Our Constitution protects ALL religions, not just the ones you like.
Please read my post you quoted then get back with me.

Like I said: Islam's rep IS getting worse and worse; either it makes some HUGE changes or at least the Sunni kind WILL be banned as being terror causing. OTOH the Shia kind and especially the Sufi kinds of Muslims DO have a better rep.

Oh......... as you said, liberals NEVER do that.
Um, thanks for putting words in my mouth that I never said.

If someone commits a crime, they should be punished for that crime, even if they are a Muslim.

Stereotypes are largely accurate. If they weren't they wouldn't be stereotypes now, would they? You yourself "stereotype" the minute you walk out of your home.

A 1000 men assaulted women in Germany. There has been ONE arrest. So your theory is fine but it doesn't work in real life. What happened in Europe was not "migration", it was a wholesale invasion. They just decided they are not going to wait and rushed the border. Now that they are in, they'll stay. Like here, no politician over there has the stomach to expel anybody no matter what they do.

Some of us would like Western civilization to remain western civilization.

Not really, I would say those that have an irrational fear of Muslims are way too emotional.

Yes, why not blame 1.5 billion people for the actions on the few. That seems rational.
