Donald Trump urges Muslims 'to turn people in'
bbc.com ^ | 16 May 2016 | BBC

Posted on 05/19/2016 1:15:40 PM PDT by Trumpinator

The presumptive Republican candidate in the US presidential election, Donald Trump, has called on Muslims to work with the police and "turn people in". In an interview with the UK's ITV, Mr Trump said he was not anti-Muslim, but "anti-terror".

He was reacting to remarks by UK Prime Minister David Cameron that he was "stupid, divisive and wrong" in calling for Muslims to be banned from the US. Mr Trump made the call last year, when he was not the party's front-runner.

He insisted that when he called for an immediate temporary ban on Muslims being allowed into America, there had been criticism only from politicians. Millions of people from all over the world had called in, he said, saying "Donald Trump is right".

Asked whether he would re-phrase those comments in the light of the controversy they caused, Mr Trump said: "It got people thinking. Whether it's good for me or bad for me, I don't really care."

Go to dailymail.com and read comments about sharia/muzzies with articles about them. Many not happy from not only there but worldwide.

Yes, I realize the Daily Mail is generally right-wing. It just messes up my computer with all those pop-ups, audio pop-ups, etc.

You know, it only came across my feed once about two days ago - it had the word community in it. The problem with FB is that if you don’t immediately jump on something it disappears into the ether. I wish I could help you but that’s all I’ve got.

I wish Trump would say “I’ll also ban all stupid people from coming to the US so don’t even think about it, Cameron.”

“Trump is defining the battleground, and then even winning the war before the battle even starts.”

It’s been called, The Trump Effect. It’s what happens when a real leader arrives upon a scene where eunuchs and other emasculated wussies have been in charge for too long.

They naturally begin following that leader. Interesting how that works.

GWB never stood up for himself when people in US Congress and etc. called him every name in book. And yes he knew muslin was not ROP. And he could have shut borders after 9/11 and there would not have been one word said about it. Our border patrol has there hand tied and can’t do there job.

Well you are right. But Dubya was too invested in open borders to shut them down. Frankly its amazing to Me that an army of Al Queda hasn’t walked across the southern border and started blowing stuff up real good already.

Like I (presciently?) said — evangelists can complete the breaking of the spell.

They are all (or mostly) too busy embracing 'gay rights' and run 'seeker' churchs.

That, and his pushing amnesty and calling the minuteman heroes vigilantes.

oh, and expanding entitlements.

if W wasn’t a moron by IQ, he was by his actions. As are all RINOs.

No they aren’t all or mostly, but they do not strike a high profile. The high profile people are not the measure of the rest.

Don’t you think it sounds more like Alahwahoo Waxbar?

I could easily shoot at that sound,.......gratuitously even.

As citizens, We have become the sacrificial offerings to Islam, just as the victim of the Aztecs would have his heart ripped out.

Our politicians are allowing Islam to take its share.

When I was a kid in the sixties, this was unthinkable.

It’s time to push back before it’s too late. Push back Trump style, 110 percent.

It’s time to revoke every green card for every Islamist. Send them all back to the Islamic hell hole they so revere.

sorry for the late reply - busy end of the week..

2006 the Dems took control and systematically, methodically, cr@pped on everything that was good and anything that was going to interrupt their "shenanigans".

GWB believed he was doing what was best but the entire way the GOP operates & positions itself was in the process of being rendered obsolete.

Effective, outcome based plans & policies, staying out of the mud, rising above the boorish & abusive behavior from the Left - done. Elections will be popularity contests void of true presidential substance. And if the winner wants to remain in power, they must be willing to fight tooth and nail, at the drop of a hat.
