Exactly. My point is tolerance is not a one way street. If Muslims are not prepared to grant equal rights to religious minorities living among them, we have no obligation to allow them to use our democratic freedoms to subvert the very basis of our society. Taranto overlooks the point that our secular rules of civilized behavior are really rooted in Judeo-Christian concepts of right and wrong. Muslims are welcome to live here as long as they accept those concepts. When they reject them, they should be removed from the West.

So long as they _remain_ Islamic, Muslims will NEVER “accept” those “concepts”.

What, then, becomes the only solution for we of the West?
