Quote:Thank you for discussing the root of the issue. I disagree with your position and this is probably worthy of a separate thread. I don't feel we should be embracing them. They should be embracing us. Ask not what your country can do for you, but what you can do for your country. It is their religion that overwhelmingly commits acts of terror. They should be in the front lines condemning, reforming, and doing whatever they can to end the inherit violence and oppression that comes with Islam. They should be the ones assimilating to American cultures and freedoms. They don't, though. You hear it from security officials and reformed Muslims themselves that the community at-large will turn a blind eye to suspicious behavior and rhetoric. You see it here, Europe, and the middle-east. In France, where it is getting very bad, they are shutting down Mosques because of the level of extremism permeating their communities.

 

We can go on about this at a deeper level, but really should be another thread.
