Is it wise or unwise to be taking immigrants from nations that have populations hostile to us?

I know theliberalvoice is a liberal on issues other than this, but I really want people to start suing liberal groups who insist on immigrants from people from hostile places, and hold them personally accountable if they commit acts of terrorism..

Why are Muslims attacking us? You'd think they'd be happy we have a Muslim president.

I doubt a real lawyer would ever pick up that kind of lawsuit.

Of course he's not a Muslim, his name is Farooque Ahmed. Sounds like a typical right-wing Christian nutjob, right?

It's just a coincidence that all these terrorist attacks and attempts and plots are committed by muslims!

I'm sure probability theory can explain that.

You should review the US immigration rules; it is virtually impossible for non-skilled workers to get into the US (legally). The refugee and green card lottery systems being the exceptions.

Kuwaiti or Iranian doctors have just as much of a right to pursue their dream of living in America as Australian and Russian doctors; are you suggesting otherwise?

I guess those Hari Krishnas are at it again.

Did they call this guy a Muslim "extremist" yet?

Did he give a reason why he wanted to attack the subway system in DC?

Must be his own personal "jihad".

Is it a "right" or a "privilege" to emigrate to the United States?

The "right" to have the privilege to move to the USA.
