Yet another reason to close our Southern Border.

Talk about societal implications: In Hispanics, you've got the most fertile race in America, the second most violent race, and the race with the second lowest average IQs. In Islam, you've got the most violent acknowledged religion in the history of mankind [where competing religions, like marxism, are understood to be unacknowledged].

This could be a recipe for disaster - kind of like pouring gasoline on a fire.

""You can be Mexican and be a Muslim and be happy," she added."

Isn't that special. Go practice your "MEXICAN/Muslim" philosophy in Mexico then! Where is the ?/Muslim outrage over the tenants of their philosophy that leads their "faithful" to murder innocent men, women, and children. Where is the outrage that teaches the world is divided into two spheres. The believers and the infidels and that the infidels are to be converted or destroyed.

I must admit that I have become a tad bigoted since 911 and I don't want any of the bastards in this country. Gives me no solace to reach that conclusion but Islam, contrary to the converts views is not a religion. It is a socio/economic/political system bent upon world domination or destruction.

Want to practice your Muslim faith ... do so else where is what I feel. There is no reconciling Islam with our capitalistic/republican philosophy. Those that try are only deluding themselves, in my not so humble opinion.

Bad news for the gop.......

counting on the Hispanic vote.......

Doesn't "la raza" means "al Qaeda" in Spanish???

Deport them and close the border. We should only allow immigration from 1st world countries except in extrodinary circumstances anyway.

The number is drawfed by the number of Hispanics that are becoming Evangelical Protestants. That is the much bigger story.

"One of the things that brought me to Islam, that I think is so beautiful, is that Muslims come from all nations," said El-Kassir, whose husband is a native of Lebanon.


Uh, yeah. Hey dimwit...SO DO CHRISTIANS, AND YES, JEWS TOO.

And in her world Catholicism is only made up of Irish? This is probably one of the goofiest comments in the whole piece. Of couse there is her "intrigue" with the dress of Muslims in her high school. Sounds like a child that lacked some guidance in religious matters and became intrigued much like Johnny Taliban became intrigued with Islam. Well at least now she has a nice, middle Eastern slavemaster, I mean husband, to guide her.

The question needs be asked: "Whom do hispanic muslims see as the prime infidels and therefore want to kill the most?"

[Clemenza]

Oh, PUHLEETH! Give me some numbers. There is NO rush to join the Islamic faith among Latins (they ARE NOT one race by the way) here in New York or in Miami, where I lived surrounded by South Americans.

This is the sort of story that would get the tin-foil hat/Aztlan Rising crowd who view Latinos and Muslims as evil forces.

"You can be Mexican and be a Muslim and be happy," she added. "You don't have to be torn between two things."

"But best of all, you can be brain-dead and be Muslim. You never have to think, because all of your actions are dictated for you. It's just so liberating to be free of all the burdens of having a life.

And of course, there's always Allah's Lottery, that if you win becuause you completely sacrificed yourself to him, you might get to spend eternity in an eternal brothel, having fun all the time. Oh, wait a minute...I forgot, I'm a woman and don't qualify for that. They have beautiful perrenial virgins there and have even less respect for me than here on earth.

Well, whatever, it's still nice not having to think."
