[[I have no problem with Muslims participating in government if they love this country. ]]
Not to belabor this issue endlessly- but one quick point i want to make- a while ago, there were surveys done with muslims in America- both Americans converted to islam, and muslim immigrants- and they were asked if they supported enacting sharia law alongside American law, and If I’m recalling correctly, an astonishing 50+% that were being honest said yes-
They were also asked if they support the practice of Jihad in islam- and an eye opening majority also said yes- (Keep in mind, many likely said no fearing their answers would expose how they really felt- but even still- a majority still said yes)

Almost 1/2 of American muslims surveyed felt Americans should face the death penalty if they insult islam- and again- this was just the % from those being honest-
Those were some seriously high % admissions- and like i said- the true numbers were likely higher- but some felt they should not reveal what they really thought in the survey likely-
As I said- not all muslims are bad folks, but my goodness- it seems like practitioners of islam go out of their way, by and large, to harbor anti-American sentiments while hiding it from the public- I remember being shocked by the survey results- As I had no idea so many felt that way about America- the country they claim to love- which obviously is not true- many it seems do not love this country, and would like to see OUR laws superseded by islam- they way it is in other countries like France- where there are ‘no go zones’ where muslims set up their own sharia laws and french police are afraid now to confront these places- so they just stay away and allow the muslims to run those districts their own way
That is why I don’t think muslims should be governing districts around the country- While there are nice loyal muslims, We’re seeing complete takeovers by muslim communities around the world- who eventually get to a point where they ignore local law, and set up their own, and it all starts with compromises- or people turning a blind eye-
Taqiaa is no joke- Those practicing it will stand there and swear up and down that they love the country- yet deep down inside they feel just like the ones that were surveyed- it’s pervasive in the islamic world- and a stated goal of islam is to take over wherever they go- This is a real thing- it’s happening- no other culture does this really- islam is a whole different kind of ‘religion- There are places in europe now where women can’t even walk down the street in broad daylight because of muslim who invaded that country and boldly expressed the fact that they were not there for peaceful purposes, but to take over- That’s from just the vocal ones- who knows how many feel that way- well, we actually do have somewhat of a gauge- according to the survey
