Well, that headline sure wasn't misleading at all.

Kinda what the mayor said - integrate. But people like golimar aren't going to quote faithfully, are they?

Our Constitution for liberty is in direct conflict with their religion of intolerance, oppression and hate.
Turn the other cheek in this conflict, and your head gets lopped off.

Our constitution, even though it says government must tolerate it, the people won't and will not tolerate the religion of Satan... of pure evil.

The constitution restricts the government from taking any action. It does not forbid the people from taking it head on.
A Holy War is what they want. A Holy War is what they will get. It is a time to bear arms and remove the evil elements from society as the constitution intended.

Go for it. And get out there and get it done. Start murdering innocent people cause of their religion. You will be shot dead in the street like a dog if you become said murderer.

Texas is 22 million people or so. How many terrorists has Texas produced compared to the Muslim population of the UK?

Fun Fact: The leader of that march is Anjem Choudry. Several of his followers have committed terrorist attacks on UK soil. Including the beheading of British soldier Lee Rigby. He also refers to the 9/11 hijackers as "The Magnificent 19" and is current facing trial in the UK for his vocal support of ISIS and possible recruitment for ISIS.

TOTALLY the same thing.

But LOL all you want. Plenty of people insane asylums who LOL for no reason except in their damaged minds.

Passive tolerance is basically "I'm different from you and you are different from me. Let's agree not to kill, assault, or be dicks to each other." Live and let live.

However, some cultures are explicitly supremacist. A good portion of schools of Islam and Muslims are downright supremacist and not only clash with the host culture, but also with other groups. There have been violent clashes in Europe between Muslims and Hindus, Muslims and Sikhs, Muslims and Jews, Muslims and black Africans, and so on. But not so much between Sikhs and Jews or between Hindus and black Africans.

I don't mind Multiculturalism, but it is not compatible with every culture nor Identity Politics. If you come as an immigrant and your outlook is how your new country owes you something, then you are not compatible with Multiculturalism.
The bold makes no sense.

Scores of Africans, outside of North Africa, ARE Muslim. So-called "black" Africans, for the race-centered types.

Senegal is 95% Muslim. Mali is 95% Muslim. Nigeria is 50% Muslim. Benin is 24% Muslim. Ghana is 18%.

Islam has a long history in Africa - East, West etc. Stop classifying non-Arab Africans as non-Muslim. You couldn't be further from reality.

The Mayor of London agrees with you, assimilate but keep your culture.

If you want to keep your culture, stay in your culture.
