Right. Just like Christine Quinn was not allowed to march as an openly Gay person in the NYC St. Pat's Parade, but could and did in the DUBLIN parade? Look it up.

Poor analogy, but that's all the Democrats have left to aid their Islamist allies.

Westboro showing up here today does not help the conservatives. Also not much being said from the mega churches,, specially in Orlando's Bible Belt. Only heard from one. Least one in the city,,, hmm but the carnage is only the shooters fault. Agree with that.

Evidence of its harm can be seen — written in blood — from Iraq to India, from Serbia to Sudan, from Fiji to the Philippines. It is scary how easily so many people can be brainwashed by sheer repetition of a word.â€

LOVE, LOVE, LOVE this quote!!!!! EXACTLY how I have began to feel just unable to say it in the correct words.

OMG!!! This is so funny!!! If the mores are so great that's why they had the renaissance and not Europeans, that is why they have such great countries, not the Europeans.

Why does Zimbabwe suck? Why does Samoa suck? Why does Kazakstan suck? When I say suck I mean have no decent economy, no decent infrastructure, no decent health care, etc. It's because the PEOPLE! The people make a country what it is! The people make the laws, the discoveries, the culture, the EVERYTHING about the country. So if the country "sucks" it's because the people. Why do you want to bring these people to the great country you live in? They stick together and just turn the areas they live in into the countries they came from. And usually aren't even grateful, and from all the aid they get turn into entitled, rules don't apply to me "people".

Yeah, actually, I've never heard anyone say that "all Muslims want to chop your head off".

You have to be obtuse not to get the actual sentiment expressed or intellectually dishonest to pretend that you do not.


Honestly, I don't think we need any imported Moslems in the US. That doesn't make me a racist, nor does it mean that I believe that all of them are evil.

However, and I don't see any liberals discussing these notions

1. Why do we need to accept hundreds of thousands of people coming from a backward land and in possession of a backward ideology?

2. How will these people improve or otherwise enhance our liberal democracy... i.e., what have they to offer us and our society?

3. Why should we admit as immigrants people who dislike us and who hold an ideology that is incompatible with our basic ideas of individual liberty?


Yes, the US was established by and is a nation of immigrants and descendants of immigrants.

BUT, we have always, from the very beginning, had immigration laws and regulations. We have always (at least up until about 1965) controlled our borders and considered carefully who we let in.

The US Constitution is not a suicide pact.

Did you happen to read my thoughts on the fact that Muslim birth rates could fall in line with other birth rates by then, or the Muslim ideology could undergo a modernization influenced by Western ideals by then, making the threat of laws against homosexuality moot?
I cherry picked nothing. You on the other hand are trying to argue that I should have waited until you made that second post after YOU realized you were wrong, and even then you were still wrong, because 33%(26 million) comes no where near "Most likely be in the majority "
