I am also more alarmed than before. The language is very troubling.

IF ONLY the worst thing Islam inspired was some stupid signs and protesting soldier funerals. IF ONLY!

IF ONLY leftists gave 1/10th the derision to Islam that it does the Westboro Baptist Church. Or Catholicism. Or the snake charming Evangelicals. IF ONLY.

Finn_Jarber You said "people who don't assimilate". Germans were a good example of such people.
again, we're not discussing Germans, are we?

Quote:
Not sure what you are saying. Your son worked in Afghanistan, and they had no papers......What does that have to do with anything. If you don't have papers you can't apply to enter the US.
If you were born in the dessert, you have nothing, about when you were born, how old you are, nothing, so how can these people be properly vetted? What, by their word?

Quote:
My point was to show you tourist visas are NOT vetted, and we have 75 million tourists coming and going. Most 9/11 attackers were here on tourist visas. So, which is a bigger danger, unvetted tourists or vetted immigrants?
70 million tourists, coming and going, so who is watching these 70 million people to make certain, they return to their countries? This is extremely negligent, careless, and down right stupid....!

75 million tourists, wow...and what is the time frame on that, a year? A week, a month, 3 months....?

Not my party. I am independent, and do not toss words like that out unless someone first proves they are indeed a racist, like by calling someone the "n" word. If you can justify calling people terrorist sympathizer with nothing to back it up, then knock yourself out. All it means that we won't have a whole lot to talk about.
Not my party either, I'm independent also, and I've never called anyone a name for their political affiliation....however, many here and everywhere in the U.S. do...I was using you, in general...you call someone a name, and judge them, eventually it's going to backfire....

Did you ever call someone a neo-natzi?

There is no difference. YOU are asking for mosques to be burned down. You won't do it yourself, so you ask others to do it.

The Constitution prohibits Trump from doing it, so you'll have to do it yourself.

The U.S. isn’t Noah’s Ark. We don’t need immigrants from every country. We have ENOUGH diversity already in this country, why do we need a diversity VISA program?

Just follow and enforce the current immigration law and we will get enough diversity.

If the people of Manhattan don't care about getting slaughtered on the street (or in the office or on the bike path), then why should I??
I guess I just don't care.

The constitution does not prohibit it, and even if you could make that argument, there are exceptions to many things in the constitution when it comes to safety.

Still don't know what you are saying. If they don't have papers they are not coming here. What is the big deal about them having papers if they live in their own dessert?

70-75 million per year. It is a huge industry in US. There is no way to follow them all around to make sure they return. What are you going to do? Put an end to it? Well over 10 million Americans would lose their jobs, and more soon after. 7.5M are directly employed by that industry, and millions more by industries who support tourism.
