ACLU: Muslims face more scrutiny for citizenship
Associated Press ^ | Aug 21, 2013 12:52 PM EDT | Amy Taxin

A government program to screen immigrants for national security concerns has blacklisted some Muslims and put their U.S. citizenship applications on hold for years, civil liberties advocates said Wednesday.

The American Civil Liberties Union of Southern California said in a report that the previously undisclosed program instructs federal immigration officers to find ways to deny applications that have been deemed a national security concern. For example, they flag discrepancies in a petition or claim they didn’t receive sufficient information from the immigrant.

The criteria used by U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services to blacklist immigrants are overly broad and include traveling through regions where there is terrorist activity, the report said. …

Well you’ve got to make them citizens. How else can you claim that not all citizen are Christians, and then use that to eliminate Christianity from any public manifestation?

You beat me to it. I would revoke the citizenship of those here and send them back to wherever they came from. Islam, like Communism, is incompatible with a free society.

In addition to illegally trafficking in food stamps for years, Mohammad’s store operated illegally after the secretary of state canceled its business license in 2009 because of Mohammad’s failure to pay the business’s taxes.

Well, here's a picture of a possible future Muslim immigrant to the United States, showing his love for egalitarian democracy by burning a Christian church:

Screening is the least we should do. Outright bans would be preferable, which is what we had up until 1965.

“Screening is the least we should do. Outright bans would be preferable, which is what we had up until 1965.”

An outright ban is what we would have if the GOP had any value, which it doesn’t. Rather than repeal the disastrous Immigration Bill of 1965 they want to double it, and more.

Because of the Muslim policy of taqiyya, no answer to any question or any oath they take can be trusted.

ACLU: Muslims face more scrutiny for citizenship

Well, D'OH!

It is not rocket science to see what islam is, clearly and hostile in the extreme. A useless culture bent on self destruction. As their intended targets, we should do everything in our power to help them self destruct.

Stop all foreign aid in every form to the killer culture!

Immediately, if not sooner.

In my humble opinion, 95% of all muslim "citizens" are sleeper agents. Sorry if that is unfair to the other 5%, but the health, safety and well being of my American fellow-citizens always have, and always will come first.

Absolutely NOBODY who belongs to a hate cult should be allowed to set foot into this country.

Islam is the ultimate hate cult therefore no Muslim should be allowed in or to remain in our country.

The ACLU sure is a leopard that never changed its spots.
I am for socialism, disarmament, and, ultimately, for abolishing the state itself… I seek the social ownership of property, the abolition of the propertied class, and the sole control of those who produce wealth. Communism is the goal.

— Roger Nash Baldwin, ACLU founder

Indeed, I consider Islam the 21st century Nazism.
