If we register all Muslims in the US, how about we also register all Jews in the US?
I mean, the vast majority of American Jews are liberal and Democrats ... wouldn't that make sense to those that that are trying to create a Christian conservative republican nation?
Judaism has its roots in the Middle East, can we really trust them?
Yes, the question is not "Should there be a database?", because there already is. Muslims have been singled-out, registered and put under surveillance secretly for a long time. Any pretense that their rights have been respected, is false. What Trump has threatened, is just a more open version of what has been done to them previously. It's a necessary part of a fascist takeover, to brand a minority as an enemy and blame them for the troubles of a society.
some context:
the number of Americans killed by Christians since 9/11 is around 200,000.
number of Americans killed by Muslims since 9/11... 3,000-ish?
Muslim Americans seem to have much lower murder rates than native citizens, but they have a higher super villain/terrorist rate. I get that people are afraid of these rare super villains. But this terrorist rate is really extremely low no matter how you look at it. What we're scared of is the fact that mass killing ability is so easy to achieve for any nut job.

The 200,000 you mention. Is that from murders, gun violence etc?
I've never been effected but I think that if a loved one of mine was killed in a terrorist attack on US soil I'd be hurting more for the simple fact that my country let me down in protecting my loved on.
