"I have friends who are..."
It's the classic defence of a bigot, no matter what kind of bigotry that is being discussed, The problem is that there is always an arbitrary "but", a seemingly reasonable exception or limitation to protect the known from the unknown. It's about playing on people's fears and It's how a failed painter from Austria brought about the Holocaust.
If your friends had lived somewhere else and your country had implemented the Trump campaign book, would you have accepted that they were not let in when they wanted to visit you?
Hyke is right. The only way to stop the radical Muslims from entering is to stop everyone from entering. It's completely unreasonable, of course, and completely mad, but there is a logic to it that you and Trump lack. You'd then only have to deal with the madmen already inside the country, not that it has been going brilliantly so far, but still. Trump would never accept it, though, because he is all about playing on people's fears and stopping everyone would be too obviously irrational.
Odeon I am not defending against a bigotry I do not have and I would this makes your slimy little point rather moot.
Again you talk about the Trump campaign book. Any reason? No seriously, any at all? As I have not taken a position on the Trump campaign book, why are you mentioning it to me?
How is Hyke right? I have not thought for a moment that saying to people trying to immigrate "Halt, are you Muslim?" Is going to stop every Muslim immigrant. If ISIS is going to lie about their reasons for immigrating and disavow being a part of ISIS then I should imagine they would disavow being Muslims as well, right? The fact that "I" bought up many impracticalities that "I" could see many times, makes it a little strange to see you say that "I" thought it would stop all Muslim immigrants. In fact it would look completely disingenuous of YOU. Hyke is interjecting in a callout she has not followed closely but you have.
I would have to deal with Madmen in America would I? Any reason I may have to? I think if the FBI has nearly 1000 active US Based Islamic Extremists then they are probably not doing a great job and any freeze may allow them to dedicate more time to getting on top of these. Me? No I can agree in principle with an idea though. That idea was NOT the campaign book was it Odeon?
As for protecting from the unknown. Please tell me this lady has a poor insight into the danger of Islamic extremists moving into countries as a form of hijrah
Tell me that you know better than she and that this is an unknown danger.
Are you right or is simply an uneducated, ignorant or stupid woman who doesn't know what she is talking about ?
Perhaps this lady is no expert either? In fact perhaps you know better and more expertly than her, right?
Come on tell me about this unknown threat?
The problem here is that pointing out a problem is not bigotry. The Emperor has no clothes and you can (like you do with your internationally headlined "Rape Capital of the world" AND swimming pool and rock concert crisises) dismiss and minimise an issue and believe the Emperor is wearing the finest silk.
If we can be rational and logical enough to conclude that there is a real problem, that is a great start.
If you can then appreciate that with an issue like this there cannot be a complete eradication of the problem, then we can look at how to reduce the problem.
From this more enlightened standpoint, we can throw things out there as things to consider in principle. I think fixing vetting systems sounds fine to me. Preventing Muslim immigrants temporarily from coming in until these vetting system are fixed sounds extremely reasonable.
That does not prevent any Muslims from coming in forever and nor does it mean that Muslim immigrants cannot immigrate in a different country in the meantime. There is NO constitution obligation that ANYONE HAS to have the right to immigrate to a country. It is a privilege.
In the case of a Muslim Immigrant freeze, it would be an inconvenience.
It is like getting a travel warning not to go to a country. Yes you had your hopes dashed. Yes it means that despite all your organising and expectation you have to delay but that is life. So you wait or make plans to go somewhere else instead or in the meantime.
None of this is bigotry. You are making no sense. Please start making sense.
