it's so ironic to me that people who stand so staunchly behind their second ammendment rights don't seem to give a fuck about the first.

I don't recall the 1st am saying anything about the rights of non Americans.

Godfather.

and in your eyes someone who is born in America and has never lived in any other country....can be designated a non-American, simply because their parents were born in a different country?

I m pretty sure when you pledge your allegiance to a terrorist organization that is at war with the United states you instantly lose your citizenship.

I'm pretty sure he's not suggesting only deporting those who have pledged allegiance to a terrorist organisation

I'm more than pretty of the same. GF has very clearly indicated multiple times that he doesn't want Muslims in America. He didn't just mean non-Americans, he didn't just mean Muslims with terrorist leanings. He wants all Muslims out of America and he wants all Muslims locked out of America (i think he seems less sure about how in the hell this could be done, but he wants it). He has specifically said this more than once. I don't understand the desire to try and minimize his statements. Is it because they are just so totally uncomfortable that people can't even believe someone could really think it?

Is that true about instantly losing citizenship if you swear allegiance to a terrorist organization???? Or did you mean figuratively? That doesn't sound right.

In my case, I wanted to be 100% sure of what he's suggesting before I judged him accordingly in my mind and allowed such judgement to colour any future interactions. Also, yes, I am perpetually determined to think the best of everyone and I do struggle sometimes to accept that other people can hold opinions which I find to be abhorrent. I have difficulty wrapping my head around it and sometimes need a little convincing that some people should just be written off in that regard

GF...

You are way off base, man.

You've taken a disturbing turn for the worse. As much as you tried to justify your opinion as legitimate as anyone else's... it's not. It's extremism at best and saddening to hear from you.

I've defended you many times and vouched for what I think is your true character, but this latest revelation is indefensible. I still like you, but I hate your viewpoint.

ummm I'll give that some thought, thank you.

Godfather.

Peace brother!

if you and I sat and talked about the muslim and gun rights in our country you would probably find that I'm a little flexible, here on the train is a little hard to be flexible because folks take what you type and add to it .....so forgive me for having a little fun with it, yeah I know that's bad but in real life that's me, my experience with muslims is very limited I never met a muslim who wasn't rude towards me not that I've met a lot but that along with news and social media..I'll tell ya they don't seem all that inviting.
anyway man have a great weekend and be safe.

Godfather.

Yeah, it took me a while too - I kept assuming there must be some kind of qualifier in there that made it not so awful... but I finally get it.
(Just so you know, I more meant that for McGruff. Sorry, I know your post was the last one, I just meant to agree with your response to him )

the only thing we can do is rid ourselves of these people in our country.

Godfather.

As this was missed last time, and as you keep bringing this 'solution' up, I'd genuinely be interested to see how you would answer these questions...

goldrush said:

Godfather. said:

how else would we get a handle on the terrorism committed by "home grown muslims" ?

Godfather.

Just to play devil's advocate for a second... Suppose that the US gave in to all the hate-filled propaganda being thrown around about deporting Muslims:

1. Where do you suggest 3 million people should go? Before you say "back to where they came from", remember you are also including American-born Muslims in this

2. How do you propose they get there? Will the US foot the bill for mass migration?

3. If (again, devil's advocate), all 3 million people are a danger to the rest of us, what gives the US the right to force that problem onto another country? "We have decided that these people are dangerous, they're your problem now. See ya!"

4. Who's next? Once the Muslims are all gone, who do you deport next? How many others have to go for you to create your perfect country?

1) back to the country of their parental origin.
2) yes, and worth every penny but those who have money will be buying their own ticket.
3) look at my answer for question # 1
4) any person who enters the United States illegally.

ahhhhh that was fun ! what else ya got ?

Godfather.

I am not sure a terrorist group counts as a foreign state or its political subdivisions.... would be an interesting debate, but I don't know how that would hold up in court. I guess it would depend on the terrorist group. If it has taken over a government or has declared itself as one in a region during war, then I assume it would likely apply, but otherwise, I'm not so sure. But if it did count, I wonder if that would include American terrorist groups? I assume American terrorists get to stay Americans no matter what.
These rules more seem written for the cold war era, when people would do shit like defect to Russia. I wonder when they were written.
