“Is Cain saying that a community can abrogate property rights (a Muslim using his property as he sees fit) or abrogate the actual practice of Islam?”
Regardless of what Mr. Cain says, your post raises valid and relevant questions.
And MY answer is, YES, at some point The West must ban the practice of Islam, and quite possibly may have to expel all Islamics from its midst.
If The West wishes to survive, it has no other alternative.
BTW, I’ve not really considered Mr. Cain a viable candidate. But he is saying here what needs to be said.
Mr. Cain wants The West to win.
I do, as well.
Just sayin’...
Those who forget the lessons of history are doomed to repeat them. The problem with your sentiment is the necessary intrusions to make it happen. Once Islam is outlawed, and its practice moved underground, how are you going to discern who is practicing Islam in secret and who is not? Even Spain's Christian citizens suffered greatly under the inquisitional powers set upon discovering who was doing what in secret.
If you outlaw Islam and do nothing, then it's an impotent gesture that will do more harm than good. Once you ban the practice of any religion, the only way to make good on your proscription is to come down like a hammer on your citizenry, because the practice will move underground. You'll find the citizens of the formerly free USA under the same sort of government scrutiny seen in inquisitional Spain or 1970's China. You wouldn't like it.
