I live in Michigan, but I am a Muslim from Syria. There, I committed a "crime" that was punishable by death - and not just any death, but a slow death after torture and starvation. My offense was helping wounded civilians deprived of their right to medical treatment because of their political views.
I looked at my children and thought that I didn't want them to suffer because of me. So after a very long process, in 2012, we moved to the place I thought would provide them safety and freedom: the United States of America .

When ISIS began to spread its terror across the world, I knew that there would be some backlash. I never, however, imagined the scale of it, especially in America.

Trump's words can be heard all over the world. He is the Republican front-runner for President - a prominent figure who many people believe speaks for the U.S.
He speaks, crowds cheer. This leads many in the Muslim world to conclude that his statements represent the majority opinion of Americans.

This guy — and all the others — needs to go back home and fight for his country.
What a fake sob story. So much hyperbole, do they think people will even believe what they are reading.
He should go back to Syria if it’s so bad here.
I don't want them in a concentration camp. I just want them out of my country.

If a faction American citizen zealots coordinated themselves here in this country, we would eradicate them. This is our home. We will defend it and have always defended it, all the way back to when Paul Revere galloped, screaming for his countrymen to grab their arms and be ready to fight.
If their is a faction of zealots in your country, YOU deal with them. Don’t come here and try to turn this into the same turdhole you left.
Handle your business at home.
Multiculturalism and ‘diversity’ don’t work.
That in the West, Muslims have no safe place to practice their religion freely or real sense of belonging, so they should emigrate to the land of the caliphate.
More disassembling from the religion of pieces.
In the East, infidels aren’t safe and are subject

Muslims, quit your sniveling.

OF COURSE there are REAL refugees out there who wish to leave the fighting BUT...until such time the Arabs/Muslims/Persians/Indonesians and other Muslims within the US hold a HUGE vigil or march, where they come by the millions and OPENLY CONDEMN the heinous acts of their brothers & sisters ALL OVER THE world, AS FAR AS I AM CONCERNED, LET THEM GO PROTEST AND CRY SOMEWHERE ELSE! WE ARE SICK AND TIRED OF THIS SO-CALLED “RELIGION OF Peace”, WREAKING HAVOC ACROSS THE PLANET.
Openly condemn your murderers and we will THINK & CONSIDER admitting you into this great nation, though it is currently led by an amoeba...
