Every immigrant to our nation, from the Irish, to the Eastern Europeans, to the Catholics and Jews, to the Chinese and Japanese, to the vietnamese, have all faced racial hatred, yet they overcame it. Why? Because we as a country we ask these new immigrants to prove themselves to be Americans first. It wasn't just a loving change of heart that we as Americans accepted people of other races and countries, it was because they PROVED themselves. The Nisei and Issei proved themselves in World War II with their actions in the 442nd Battalion....you think anyone will ever suspect Japanese-Americans of being disloyal to our nation after that?
Yet, the Muslims are expecting us to accept them at face value without proving themselves to be Americans first. We had the same suspicions when there was heavy Jewish and Catholic immigration to our nation. Yet they proved themselves to be great Americans and, as a reward, they are allowed to worship freer than they would have if they stayed in their home country. The Muslims in our nation need to understand that. Until they can prove they love America more than they love some twisted ideology that is dedicated to destroying America, they'll always be suspected. As long as Muslims here in America are upset about 9/11 ONLY because they're afraid of how badly they'll be treated, instead of strongly condemning the terrorists who performed this despicable act, they'll never get the acceptance they so dearly want.
Like all immigrants to our country, Muslims need to show that they can add to our nation. You can talk about Civil Rights until you're blue in the face, but until you can show you belong here, you'll be suspect. Here in the South, Sam "Bam" Cunningham, FB for USC who ripped through Alabama in 1970, did more for Civil Rights in 3 hours than Martin Luther King did in 15 years. Why? Because it showed Southerners how stupid the "racial superiority" garbage was and accepting African-Americans as equals has its benefits.
Every Muslim-American needs to ask himself, "What am I doing to prove myself to be a good American?" If they're not, and wishing a Caliphate on our great nation, they need to go back to where their ancestors came from.
They learn that in weekend schools for the purpose of reading the Koran.
You'll never hear about it of course.
