Talking about dealing with problems...

------------------
Chinese government authorities have banned Muslim children from attending religious events during winter break, in a county in western China that is mostly populated by Muslims.

The notification for the ban has been posted online by the education bureau, as authorities step up their suppression of religious freedoms.

How many posts before some of the dopes start weighing in that they wish we'd do the same thing here?

I think it will be ignored for two reasons. One, they hate Trump so loving China is popular. Two, China is doing a no no. So, best to pass on bye.

For both liberals and conservatives, hating China is politically correct.

I don't have a problem with whatever China wants to do in China. For better or worse America's constitution doesn't allow banning islam inside America but it certainly allows for banning foreign muslims from entering like we use to do.

What gets me is many of these countries don't offer free movement and American cultural practices to enter their countries but demand America cater to their free movement and culture.

I'm not a dope, and if we weren't a dopey nation we'd amend the constitution and specifically exempt a least one "religion" from being a bona fide, protected practice.

This is a major set back to the millions of people wanting to immigrate to China.

The UN needs to get on this right away.

I agree with you there. How Scientology gets away with it is a mystery.

I have said this a million times but Muslims in America are not the same as Muslims in China. I have been to Turkey, Nigeria and UAE, clearly Muslims are different from each other, even in Nigeria Muslims in the South are different from the north, Turkey Muslims from major cities are different from the rest of the country, etcetera. Same with Muslims in the U.K. Muslims in china live isolated from the rest of the Chinese are bordered by fundamental Islamic countries, and live in predominantly Muslim dominated areas, Muslims in America are the exact opposite, Muslims in most of Turkey aren’t fundamental at all. Bosnian and Albanian terrorists are almost unheard of, same with Indonesian and Indian terrorists, same with Malaysian terrorists (all the we countries have terrrorism but to a much lesser degree). Even countries were we have had attacks from before like Central Asia relatively have very few terrorists.
