we discriminate against consuming spoiled food....driving on flat tires..and any number of other matters which could be detrimental to us.
we discriminate in favor of rational choices, as a rule.
the concept of discrimination has been wildly misconstrued to be a vile negative thing. Its isnt,
Syrian Muslim refugees in Sweden chased away Christian refugees from Syria.
You try to help these people and then they stab you. They are absolute demons.
What happens when the world runs out of Christian countries to run to?
The Slovaks are practical people. I grew up around them.
More power to Slovakia and their common sense!
Slovakia gets it. So do Poland & Bulgaria.
What does Eastern Europe know about Muslims that thickheaded Western Europe doesn’t?
Let’s be honest. It is like “discriminating” against a cobra in favor of bunny rabbits.
I went to a party last year put on by my wife’s co-workers. I knew one woman was Iranian and had my guard up. We got to their apartment and low and behold there are crosses up on the walls in every room and a painting of the last supper prominently in the living room. Turns out they are Christian Iranians run out by the Shiites. Great people, industrious spiritual and great sense of humor. The husband took me outside and taught me how to smoke a hookah. All in all I had a great time and made new friends.
Damn straight. Sane and intelligent people discriminate all the time. Heck, "discriminating" (as an adjective) used to be a compliment. In this case, they're discriminating decent folk from mohammedans, and excluding the latter. Doing otherwise would be stupid.
RE: What does Eastern Europe know about Muslims that thickheaded Western Europe doesn’t?
They are geographically closer to what was then, the Ottoman Empire.
It was a Polish-Lithianian general, Jan Sobieski (Later King of Poland ) who led the West to victory in the Battle of Vienna. Had the Muslims won, ALL of the Europe would be Muslim today.
I know there are fine folks everywhere.
This is not one of them.
I have always felt that discrimination was a very good thing; it keeps us from doing stupid unnecessary dangerous stunts, keeps us away from ignorant dangerous people, keeps us away from dangerous places.
It is a valuable survival trait that unfortunately a lot of our citizens seem to have lost due to PC thought patterns.
the very use of the word seems to create some rather “pavlovian” responses in a fair sized slice of humanity!
sixty years ago... an automaker might have used this as a Headline!
Discriminating Drivers Prefer.....Rolls Royce....[ your brand name here ]
Today...were virtually ORDERED Not to “discriminate”....as though doing so was like yelling fire in a theater
