I hope the Mets lose every game they play the rest of the season and next season, too. ‘eff ‘em.
They not only allow this muzzie vermin to throw out the first pitch, they had him wearing a Mets uniform when he threw it!
An insult to all those who lost family on September 11, 2001.
Context is everything and those who say that we must get used to terrorism must be challenged to provide the context that provides the foundation for those views.
If the person means, “I think we’re stuck with terrorism even if we remain hyper-vigilant, stop immigration and deal harshly with proven collaborators,” that’s one thing. It is perhaps just a realistic assessment of what lies ahead whatever we try to do. But if they mean, “we’re going to support unlimited Muslim immigration and view terrorism as a natural consequence of slow-motion jihad so that fifty or a hundred years from now, your countries will be Muslim,” then that’s not on, and we need to move past the p.c. barrier to naming that reality and we need to get political leadership that will fight against that goal.
And if it’s just the French politician’s likely reasoning (this is too hard, I want a short work week) then boot that kind of idiot out of office also.
This Muslim mayor needs to get the message (and he won’t get it in Londonistan) that by and large, the populations of western countries don’t want any more of this and are ready to take whatever action is needed. Muslims who are not inclined to terrorism or cultural supremacy could do themselves a favor by getting off the fence and ending this ambiguous talk they like to use which is usually, “this doesn’t represent us and now we’re going to be victims of a backlash (which never really happens).”
We can live with a small minority of law-abiding people of any background but the people have the right to determine policies that will maintain cultural integrity, whether it’s on this issue or things like illegal immigration. These are our countries, we don’t have other places to go if things go wrong here, as our immigrants have had the good fortune to find. There is no North America or Europe that we can escape to, and we need to make it clear to elites that they don’t get to make these calls as if they had been elected and appointed to do so. That should be the main outcome of this presidential election, and while long overdue, it will be a good start on getting things right in the future.
