Donald Trump’s Proposal To Halt Muslim Immigration Is Prudent, Wise, Brilliant and Long Overdue…
The Conservative Treehouse ^ | 12-8-2016 | sundance

Posted on 12/08/2015 3:30:45 AM PST by sheikdetailfeather

After decades of culturally-dominating politically correct drum-beating that numbs the average psyche (from accepting common sense), it might take a few minutes for the prudent position of Donald Trump to sink-in.

However, once you get beyond the trained instinct of hysteria, and focus on the substantive request, to: “shutdown Muslims entering the United States until our country’s representatives can figure out what is going on” – it actually makes a great deal of sense.

uch a position is really not the least bit controversial, and that’s exactly what makes it so brilliant on many levels.

Of course, if you are not willing to accept the concept of Islamic Jihad – and/or if you are unwilling to accept that Islamic Terrorists have been targeting us for the past decade – well, in that instance Trump’s position might seem controversial. However, for the rest of us, it makes a great deal of sense.

Ok. Lets try this again:

ANY muslim coming into the country he wants to put a halt to that until they can get a grip on who they are so althought he did not specify Kurds, that no doubt would include them for the time being............

Anyone who is a U.S. citizen who converts to Islam is not going to be rounded up and deported.

People forget “Nine Eleven” & the Twin Towers crumbling &
people jumping/falling because they HAD NO CHOICE. It was
either jump/fall or be burned alive and suffocated in the
blazes and black smoke. Three Thousand human beings in the
multiple attacks that awful day . . . . .

See, my point is that a blanket ban will need to give way to certain exceptions. Problem is, Trump doesn’t think a couple steps beyond his statement.

Seem to remember the brother of the Godfather in Chicago basically stating that a certain percentage of American Citizens must die in order to bring about any transformations the Creature wished to proclaim. Apparently this is the only way the congress critters, talking heads, and the black boy could make this possible.

GO TRUMP GO CRUZ ~ you win or we’ll ALL be dead.

Yes. It may have to be fine tuned.

Trump: Shut it Down.

JUST IN: "Trump is calling for a total and complete shutdown of Muslims entering the United States" pic.twitter.com/5ST0qyge09

  — Oliver Darcy (@oliverdarcy) December 7, 2015

As I said in a previous post, we have duties and obligations to American citizens -- but we have absolutely none at all with respect to non-American foreigners, and we can act in our own ruthless self-interest any time we feel it's necessary, or even just advisable.

Islam is obviously going through something right now. It might be a phase. It might pass.

But it's insane to keep on pretending that everything's just going swimmingly with Muslim immigration to the West. It's not, and it's Orwellian to continue attacking people for speaking this basic truth about it.


Ralph Peters on Fox: Obama is a "Total Pussy." He got suspended for two weeks.

Why? Give me a break on the idea that it's some major breach to say "pussy" in its metaphorical, non-biological sense these days.

If you want to make the point, give him a 48 hour suspension.

We're well past the point where we should be patrolling ourselves to make sure we're "respectful" to this utterly disreputable simpleton pussy.

Everyone: His spokewoman, who is either dumb, or revealing Trump's actual stupidity, says this policy would apply not only to foreign immigrants, but to US citizens abroad trying to re-enter the US after a trip overseas.

When asked by The Hill whether that would include Muslim-American citizens currently abroad, Trump spokeswoman Hope Hicks replied over email: "Mr. Trump says, 'everyone.'"

Well that is so exceedingly stupid and blatantly anti-constitutional that I doubt Hope Hicks knows what she's talking about, or if the not-terribly-scholarly Trump even listened to the question.

But I am glad we're discussing this.

It's pretty clear that the Establishment, in both of its wings, right and left, has taken the position, without ever actually thinking about it, that we cannot discriminate about who we let into this country based on group characteristics.

The Establishment has internalized the idea the anything even vaguely "racist" is the worst evil possible -- even worse than murder, as AG Loretta Lynch recently informed us (in that anti-Muslim speech is apparently the "greatest fear" she worries about).

But we act against groups all the time in foreign policy. If we slap tariffs on Chinese-made goods, we are not giving each Chinese manufacturer a due-process hearing to determine his guilt in the trade breach, or his level of personal support for the regime we're punishing.

When we go to war with a country, we are declaring war on millions -- the great bulk of which are non-combatants, and many of whom, maybe almost half, would take personal satisfaction in seeing their leadership tried at the Hague.

The 1965 Kennedy immigration act deliberately skewed immigration to favor the non-Western world, in a planned attempt to make America less white, and less Christian.

When exactly did this particular political goal of the left become not only beloved by the left but by the the establishment right as well?

There is no law that says we must accept a certain level of immigrants from, say, Libya. Well, there is a law, but it's merely that: a law pushed by Ted Kennedy to try to make America more multicultural.

We can change that at any time we feel it doesn't serve our interests.

I happen to believe it hasn't been serving our interests for a while.

Yet the typical people scream "racism" when we come to any conclusion, beside Ted Kennedy's, about what our immigration policy should look like.

The problem, then, is anyone "respectable" is filled with these stupid ideas transmitted uncritically like diseases from the Leftward Herd to the Rightward Herd, and the only sort of person capable of challenging the Herd Non-Thought of the enormously stupid, inaccurately-named "Elite" class must be someone who is, by nature, utterly disreputable.

And then that gets us to the problem we're faced with, in which a man who is palpably unqualified by experience or temperament to be the president of the United States is simultaneously the only person of any prominence capable of brushing aside the cheap, insipid religious dogmas of our secular priestly castes and speak a (stupid, rude form of) the truth about things.

Funny how when I said it a long time ago along with the requirement that we bulldoze mosques here, I was considered to be radical. School systems threw me out YEARS ago for providing solutions to illegal immigration and islam. Oh well...

Trump has forced them into alignment with Obama.

They always were secretly in alignment with Democrat philosophy. It is now out in the open.

I disagree with this. islam can NOT be practiced here, period due to what the Koran teaches.

....How about Americans who for whatever reason, convert to islam...

The incomplete Mecca Muslim’s do not appear to be violent and angry like the Medina Muslim’s.

Too many people have died, from the Russian airplane bomb, to Paris, and now SB!
We NEED to figure out where the Muslim anger is coming from, and why

I have been watching OAN more and more and love the show “The Daily Ledger” with Graham Ledger. He interviewed a man on his show last night named Shahram Hadian and he is a former Muslim from Iran who is now a Christian Pastor here in the U.S.. I found this on youtube about the refugees:

Shahram Hadian discusses Syrian refugees on Kevin Miller show Nov. 24 2015

Exceptions are fine. Mistakes are ok too. The main point is to stop the majority of the future terrorists from entering. We can deal with the exceptions by keeping tabs on them and especially their religious "leaders".

The policy will be temporary but last until CAIR figures out a system to turn in terrorists and reward and protect anyone who turns in terrorists.

Why would an American convert to a religeon that says NOT to pledge allegiance to the USA but to Sharia? Yes, strip them of their vote. Why let a sworn advocate of the downfall if the USA have a vote to destroy it?

The GOP establishment is ranting and raving that Trump's policy is against the first amendment. The first amendment as I understand it pertains to American citizens. Non citizen foreign nationals, illegal aliens don't enjoy the benefits of citizenship.
