This is a good thing for this reason: it is better to expose muslims in another country than in the U.S. And as mayor of London, he will be in plain view. He will feel entitled—even pressured—to be an authentic muslim (i.e. radical).
The entire world will now see this radical for what he is.

The problem is they are not taught how to be Americans anymore. I learned this about 20 years ago when I served on jury duty at City Hall and the Korean immigrant on our jury didn’t know what the 5th Amendment was and once we told him about it, rejected it outright. What’s the point of that?

The Indians in my neighborhood dress very poorly but own huge SUVs which they cannot handle. The women can’t see over the steering wheel and the men don’t know how to maneuver in the parking lots. It’s actually comical.

A lot of freepers live in rural areas and suburbia and I think get a skewed vision of cities nationally and int’ly from news reports.

No, it isn’t. This is one Muslim mayor (as opposed to a Muslim president twice btw). Calm down.

This is not the start of any conquest, he is a (slippery dodgy) Labour politician of Muslim faith. I don’t trust him, but he isn’t an Imam or Bin Laden MK2.

The difference is that 95% was sympathetic to what the Nazis had to say. Poor analogy.

1-—We needed that manpower.

2—Overall, immigration has been good or ok for the UK since then. Its the one group causing problems. Prior to the 90s it was black vs white racial tension. Which has healed itself. Other groups like Sikhs and Hindus have been great. HK Chinese. White groups like Greeks, Irish and others.

Disappointed.

But this isn’t the start of the end of the UK etc etc. Its one slippery Labour politician. I am more worried that he is Labour than Muslim.

The fight continues. Starting 23rd June.
