There's many a truth amongst the numerous words in that comment. Methinks you miss a great deal because you refuse to read the detail, your concentration is limited to a defensive position only. Islam is indefensible.

Sorry about the format, I don't know how to correct it.

The ENTER key can help, or put <p> or <br><br> where you want to put in paragraph breaks.

I'm not defending Islam.

What I'm defending is the right of American citizens to be secure from being detained and fingerprinted based only on their religion, legal activities, etc., without so much as even probable cause being given.

If so-called "conservatives" can't understand the danger in that, I fear for our Constitution and America itself. When did it become acceptable for the government to single out citizens who have not been charged with a crime, based mainly on their religion? And if anyone says "September 11, 2001," then it seems the terrorists are winning to some extent.

What happened to American (and Australian) optimism, defiance, and independence? Why are we so willing to sell out our hard-fought protections for some short-term false sense of security (I note that nobody has explained clearly--on TTTWD or this one--how fingerprinting these travelers would have made us safe)?

The arguments about what Islam is or isn't are not my point of dispute--even if Islam is Satanism, the fact is that the strongest fight against it is to maintain our own strength--our own strong Constitution and personal protections/rights.

I daresay that anyone who thinks "a democratic republic that protects its' citizens rights" is a weaker nation than "one that maintains internal security with an intrusive government" is at the wrong website.
