Trump’s Proposed Muslim Immigration Moratorium Is the Wrong Response to Political Correctness

The answer is this: You don't know.

Neither do you, you snarky, pompous, bitter witch.

No one knows what anyone will do in the future, but I KNOW THAT SCOTT WALKER will not be President and you will be bitter FOREVER.

[Cincinatus' Wife]

...This is the reason we need a leader who speaks “straight from the shoulder” and tells it like it is. I am, like many of you, complete disgusted with the politically correct crowd who pussy foot around a subject by using PC words instead of hitting right between the eyes with what you have to say. Tell it like it is and stop all the PC BS.

"Tell it like it is" - like how wonderful Hillary is (was, will be)?

​Donald J. Trump Statement on Preventing Muslim Immigration

(New York, NY) December 7th, 2015, — Donald J. Trump is calling for a total and complete shutdown of Muslims entering the United States until our country’s representatives can figure out what is going on. According to Pew Research, among others, there is great hatred towards Americans by large segments of the Muslim population. Most recently, a poll from the Center for Security Policy released data showing “25% of those polled agreed that violence against Americans here in the United States is justified as a part of the global jihad” and 51% of those polled, “agreed that Muslims in America should have the choice of being governed according to Shariah.” Shariah authorizes such atrocities as murder against non-believers who won’t convert, beheadings and more unthinkable acts that pose great harm to Americans, especially women.

Mr. Trump stated, “Without looking at the various polling data, it is obvious to anybody the hatred is beyond comprehension. Where this hatred comes from and why we will have to determine. Until we are able to determine and understand this problem and the dangerous threat it poses, our country cannot be the victims of horrendous attacks by people that believe only in Jihad, and have no sense of reason or respect for human life. If I win the election for President, we are going to Make America Great Again.” - Donald J. Trump

Sounds perfectly reasonable to me, how about you?

[Cincinatus' Wife]

Such a mouth on you.

[Pietro]

"What about the interpreters who've laid down their lives to serve our warriors downrange and now find themselves under imminent threat from jihadists?"

Is the author speaking of the people obamam abandoned in the field to the gentle ministrations of ISIS?

That ship has sailed and those folks have learned a valuable lesson, albeit their last.

[jobim]

I finally watched that film recently. But Andy Griffith was a fraud,
consciously hoodwinking the people. Is this what you accuse Trump of?

[USS Alaska]

Such a mouth on you.

So true, but in contrast with you, my mouth comes with a working brain and Trump isn't my first choice.

Go Cruz {please wifey, don't back Cruz} you bring a curse along with your wicked witch keyboard.

[Cincinatus' Wife]

It’s “reasonable” until the shoe is on the other foot and the “wheels of power” start going into churches saying there are religious extremists there (note, “religious extremists” has become the Left’s preferred usage).

[Pietro]

Hardly, I'm pointing out that the LEFT thinks Tea Party conservatives are the extremists...

And so they send the IRS, the FBI, the FEC, the EPA, and OSHA after us.

And then they lie about us in the media, they tie us up in court w/ nonsense lawsuits, and our own erstwhile allies, the GOPe that benefitted from our votes, has stuck a knife in our back.

But I think you're right, we should try and get along w/ them.

[ripley]

“More anti-Trump blather.”

Question:

Since when is the entire world entitled to the benefits of the American Constitution and since when is it a violation of the Constitution for the sovereign United States of America to regulate immigration?

Just asking.

[euram]

You didn’t even read his post, it doesn’t even mention “religious extremists” anywhere in it.

Let the left use “religious extremists” all they want, we know which side they are on anyway.

[Cincinatus' Wife]

Who said Trump used it? You must consider that every time you scream for more government dictates (for protection), you lose more freedom, and that is why Obama/Left is letting this fester (gun control, “green” control).

[Tucker39]

David French doesn’t even understand the problem, let alone having a clue to its solution. This situation with muslims is not merely one of PC. It isn’t like we Americans simply prefer a different sports team from the muslims. No. It goes much deeper than that.

Our REAL problems with islam are written in its own by-laws, if you will. There are numerous commandments in its sacred book, instructing muslims that no other religion, or absence of it, should be allowed to exist on the planet. Other faiths and/or non-faiths are not to be permitted on Earth. And every effort, overt or clandestine, MUST be made to bring islam and its shariah law into a position of holding absolute sway over every human soul everywhere.

And while its final goal is for every living earth dweller to be converted or killed; its initial drive is to acquire political and civil sway over the entire planet. It is commanded to subvert, infiltrate and overpower every people group and every inch of real estate on the planet. ANY and All means may and must be employed in the doing of it.

Masquerading as a religion of peace is merely one of the myriad tactics to be used. Lying, deceit, subterfuge and all other imaginable tactics are permissible and considered highly moral in the islamic conquest of Earth.

The recent atrocity in San Bernardino, CA is a shining example of how muslims are commanded to, and DO operate in the advance of islam. If outright immediate overthrow is not feasible in the targeted nation; muslims know they are commanded to commence the overthrow by stealth. They are commanded to insinuate themselves into the targeted civilization. To adamantly refuse to assimilate or accede to its laws or customs. To demand special concessions in the name of their religion, and give the outward appearance of becoming peaceful, submitted citizens.

Meanwhile, they are commanded to secretly arm themselves with every possible weapon or tool available, in preparation for the moment when, by command from afar or by their own volition, they suddenly rise up and kill, maim and terrorize every possible non-muslim they can, with personal death in the name of their god being highly preferable to capture and/or imprisonment.

And that is precisely what the two in San Bernardino did. Meanwhile, such muslims or sympathisers as Obama and the numerous muslims installed by him into positions of power and influence in our government; do everything in their power to portray these atrocities as mysterious aberrations, with no possible clue as to why they took place; and by hook or by crook, to import more and more such individuals from foreign nations into our Country to continue the efforts of islam to overthrow and destroy our civil government and religious faith, using our very freedoms and liberties as weapons against us.

Not every muslim coming to our Country is commited to personally engaging in acts of violence and terror; but every man Jack of them, as a submissive muslim, is in perfect agreement with those who are, and will demonstrate it by refraining from ANY real meaningful opposition to it, by word or deed.

It is against this operation of treasonous intrigue that Donald J. Trump is the LONE, perfectly lucid and valiantly courageous person to declare that he understands all of the above. And to voice the obvious truth that since islam has been permitted and even assisted in commiting these atrocities, and in the establishing of untold numbers of sleeper cells and clandestine terrorists such as the California couple into the very fabric of our Nation; the first step to take in our own defense, is to immediately HALT the flow of additional muslims into the United States until we can acquire some semblance of knowledge and control over who is here, and what they are up to.

Hopefully, an adequate majority of voting citizens have come to understand the true predicament our Country has been led into, and and are prepared to stand with Trump in halting its advance, and in taking the severe measures required in reversing and removing the danger.

[Cincinatus' Wife]

But I think you're right, we should try and get along w/ them.

Nice twist. That's what I love about how you argue, if I don't support one thing, I'm naturally against everything. So.... I must agree with Trump and cheer him on.

[jpsb]

"I would expect such a proposal from an Constitutional Ignoramous like this from DJT."

What the USA needs is more Muslims! /s

Paradoxically and oxymoronically, the only good Muslim is a bad Muslim.

[palmer]

NPR tried that this morning. They interviewed some CAIR terrorist sympathizer who had the gall to equate Muslim and Christian extremism. I didn't smack the radio but I quickly corrected my liberal passenger who thought that was ok.

The problem with Islam is that it promotes Israel hatred (all Muslims hate Israel, even "moderate" ones), it protects the friends and families of terrorists who don't turn them in, it promotes debauchery and degradation of women here in America because their own sins are temporarily "hidden" from Allah here, but evemtually they must atone with jihad.

[FreedomPoster]

Thanks. I had seen that, or parts of that, posted here quite a bit, but did not have the original source for it. Bookmarked.

I've read your posts on this thread, and I think I understand your stance. What I suggest,
if you haven't read him already, is read Sundance at Conservative Treehouse. He has
been framing this campaign accurately, in my opinion.

As Conservative Constitutionalists, it is incumbent upon us to examine how we have
arrived at the state we are in: how did we get here? The globalists & GOPe backed
Bush 1, worked
with the Clintons, backed Bush 2, backed McCain and Romney
and have worked with Obama. They set down the groundwork to make Bush 3 the nominee, but if he doesn't
make it with the help of the multiple "splitters" then Clinton 2 will do. The only person
who can call his own shots, is outside Wall street and the globalists, and who has support
accross the political spectrum, is Trump.

Cruz has appeal to Conservatives, but has some
baggage that will prevent him from winning the general election. I still wish for him to be
VP. But Trump, given the stakes of this election - ie crucial like no other in our lifetimes
- is the only one who can keep the globalists & elitists at bay. Who knows for how long.
