Armed Protesters Surround Florida Mosque To Oppose ‘Islamization of America’
Big Government ^ | 11/22/15 | AWR Hawkins

Posted on 11/22/2015 6:40:15 PM PST by markomalley

On November 21 a group of armed protesters surrounded a Irving, Florida, mosque to oppose the pending influx of Syrian refugees and the “Islamization of America.”

Some of the protesters had AR-15 rifles slung across their shoulders while others carried bolt action rifles popular for their long range accuracy. They explained that they were not carrying the weapons for offensive purposes, but to defend themselves in the event that things went badly during the protest.

According to Fox 4, protest spokesman David Wright said, “We are here protesting Syrian refugees coming to America [and] protesting the Islamization of America.” He is convinced that the opposition he and fellow protesters show is “popular” but people “are scared; they are scared to stand up and say anything about it. They are scared to come out to a place like [Irving] and stand in front of a mosque and protest Islam.”

Way to misconstrue the point.
I’m referring to some twit preemptively executing random Muslims before any of the latter do anything warranting combat.
There are a lot of millions of Muslims in this country right now, and heads are not rolling. I’m concerned as anyone that terroristic badness is looming, but am not opting for “kill them all and let God sort them out” any more than you are right now.

You might feel like a Bostonian who saw his/her fellow Americans enjoying a Traditional Marathon blown up.. not by “crock pots” but by other means of sadistic destruction.. you might “feel” like an American whose arms and legs were ripped off, children killed people’s lives destroyed by Islamist terrorists who were soley supported by the tax payers of Massachusetts!
That is how you might feel…if you had brain in your head.

So you're ok then if we rape your daughters as punishment for them being raped?

Perhaps you would like to send them a strongly worded letter? I'm certain that would work.

I'm afraid the nice world you live in is dead.

We are going on the offensive.

My concern is that both will happen, and soon.
Media is stirring up hysteria. Some are just biding their time, waiting for the inevitable nutcase to take the first step and give them the excuse to crack down hard on us. The pushback will be...

I’m absolutely up for a 1,000,000 men with rifles in DC. No one would need to say a thing. Show up, stand at attention for 1 minute, and leave.

The ‘tone’ in DC would change over night.

sure. we should sit on our thumbs and moan about things on forums and do nothing until they come to take us, and our children, to the camps.

Because, dear God, we wouldn’t want to be a ‘nut’.

Oh, I see. You're the "I prefer to be boiled alive slowly" type.

I don't give an F.     Bring it on. Push back THIS.

If they have the ability to "crack down hard on us" they WILL! Why appease them, hoping for mecy? IT AIN'T COMING!

ug. How many times to I have to post in this forum that terrorism is an irrelevant distraction.

It is the mouse to the elephant.

The grim reaper is islamic immigration and birth rates. Because ALL muslims from ALL sects believe that ALL governments must come under sharia law.

Plaster the mosque with bacon strips in and out and let loose a group of swine in the interiors to foul the place. Listen to the Muslims bitch. Then do it again and again and again to these Saudi funded terrorism preaching centers. There are lots of mosques and we’ve got even more bacon and pigs.

> People need to be lined up at the ports of entry instead. Pretty hard to do when they are flying them in on Fed Ex planes and delivering them in LA in the dead of night, loading them on buses and heading north.

That I understand. And Fedex needs to be shamed for putting profit over the safety of the American people. Need film crews on the ground to capture it and insider contacts who can provide proof.

> I don’t think that specific Mosque is under suspicion. Those guys should really go down to the one in Tampa.

oh they were very upset that the Sharia Law Court did not take hold in Irving. The Muzzies monitor and talk about the mayor there every chance they get. They hate her. And its not just Muslims that keep tabs on her locally. Its all over the U.S.

Well the guys do have what appears to be AR15s slung over their shoulders and I can’t see a lefty doing that. I don’t think they should be out there dressed in Army fatigues unless they are in the military. It sort of sends the wrong message IMO.

This SHOULD be happening everywhere in America. If people realized how much danger they are about to be put in it would be.

> However, it is sometimes a fine line between open carry (legal) and showing a weapon as a display of force and intimidation (illegal).

i agree. People are "up in arms" right mow because of ISIS and all of the other terrorist groups that are targeting Christians and Jews and have shown they will kill without hesitation This in addition to all the division created by a Manchurian Candidate infiltrator working under the employ of an American hating socialist who's been proven to be funding the discord over here by activist agencies intent on destroying whole cities using racism and setting up groups to try and confiscate and demonize our guns. We know why. Having said that I don't think its a good idea to stand outside places of worship with loaded guns as it sets a precedent that can be used by the other side as well and could be used by the left to further diminish 1st amendment rights. People need to use their brains wnd think things through to their full consequences otherwise it ends up being a point for the other team if you act like they do.

> Sadly, Obama would order the Pentagon winnies to call out the 82d Airborne Division, the 101st Airborne Division, probably Seal Team 6, the Green Berets, and the Washington Redskins to surround the White House to protect his lying, skinny butt.

Caesar thought Brutus had his back. He did...: )

Sheez.....all I said was these folks are going to far. if I knew you'd start filling your Depends over it, I probably would have posted what I said, anyways.

I know what Islam is. Probably more than you do. I am also aware what they have done In Europe and anyplace else their numbers get to a certain level. It's a religion that's still stuck in the Crusades era mindset. But I see nothing in the article that says anything the Mosque or it's attendants have raped or caused mayhem. As long as anyone practices their faith peacefully and doesn't seek to force it onto others, I have no problem with them. I guess I believe in freedom to practice your faith peacefully and the concept of innocent till proven guilty. You don't and that's your business.

In short, these demonstrators are kooks

So now what to do with every swarthy guy with a back pack?

If we were talking about better checks on student visas, periodic follow up visits with Immigration, or even just humor the Russians on their intelligence on the Boston bombers - that I would go for.
