I’ll throw this right back up here, along with the implied it takes immigration to make the diversity actually occur.
Let’s hear some personal reasons why some of you are such ardent defenders. Not interested in Raj is a xenophobe or we are a nation of immigrants (what country isn’t if you go back in time). There must be some personal reasons unless some of you have merely staked a position to defend against all adversary.
Yes, we’ve covered this completely retarded blanket policy before. 100M muslims in India, ginger jihad in the UK, 10M Chinese Muslim, all banned. All retarded.
I’ll say again what I’ve said beforw. Cutting off all travel from a specific state or region for strategic purposes is fine. Cutting off travel based on a religion, which isn’t logistics possible, is retarded.
I’m out of word at this point, it’s fucking retarded.
Yeah serious shit. Watergate was 1 break in. This is a campaign to incite violence and commit voter fraud running for months and perpetrated in multiple states.
Because I don’t have to look too far back to see where I came from.
A better argument would be that many of the best and brightest world changers immigrated here or were first generation born and made America the leader of the free world, but that would be disingenuous.
I don’t think we should blow the doors open, but we shouldn’t slam them shut.
Sure, you know they might be secular people fleeing a hell hole they don’t want to go back to. Or Yazidi, or Christian, or Hindi, or fucking Zoroastrian. That’s a real, historically verified and observed reason people emigrate, and it happens quite often and especially during conflict
But we already know he has no clue how to analyze or assess evidence or statistics.
That’s complete bullshit and you know it. I used to work with a professor who was muslim. He brought tons of intellect and talent to our core facility. He published a ton of research. And there are more like that. Don’t say stupid shit. Try not living in fear, it’s fantastic.
Well again, I don’t feel like we are defending the super liberal diversity at all costs program. I’m not opposed to controlling our borders at all.
I am opposed to people misusing statistics, articles, and oblique support for a surveillence state, and fearmongering. I know that’s not what you wanted to hear but that’s why I keep responding–you’ll notice I’m not responding to pat because his opinion, while it shares quite a fair amount with raj’s crazy, is much more nuanced and pat has demonstrated the ability to reason, think, and respond intelligently. All of these things are things I believe in.
And again, I’m not opposed to filtering immigration and certainly not opposed to stopping illegal immigration.
This is a great post to explain why they object so much. They all know that one Muslim guy with a heart of gold and are unaware how vile the bottom third of Muslims truly are.
When they hear the words out of Trumps mouth it sends them into fits of rage because they can’t stop thinking of that one Muslim with the heart of gold
This is what their tolerance brings them in the end of course
@therajraj - need you to weigh in on this. Shouldn’t we be concerned your presence in our country is diluting our culture? Why are you afraid to answer the question?
If the premise that we must shut ourselves off from an entire region of the world and an entire religion because some small portion of them might turn out to be responsible for violence and death of American citizens…
Do we have to shut ourselves off from everything that will result in violence and/or death of American citizens?
How do you feel about the Second Amendment, raj? Should we get rid of all the guns in the States because some of them will one day be responsible for the deaths of American citizens?
