clicked thread knowing op would compare banning firearms to banning cars

and it happened, what an anticlimactic scenario


Well, what other solution do you propose?

Not allowing third world savages to enter the country / shutting down mosques that preach hate aren't viable options btw since they're racist.

we classify animals by species, not behaviors.

i'm not sure why people dont understand why "animals" is a blanket offensive term for an group. I mean, call people animals all you want just dont get surprised when people they're associated with that you didnt reference get pissy.

im glad to know you're just another person only interested in observing and bitching, rather than actually making the world a better and safer place. you catch more flies with honey than vinegar.

massive numbers of muslims sympathize with terrorists, many of them also sympathize with victims of islamic terror. these two categories aren't mutually exclusive no matter what implications you falsely drew from the hack stats you seem stuck on. pulling muslims over the fence to the non-terrorists side is possible.


That's mostly what I meant, and the labeling gets worse down the line when ppl want to separate non-terrorist muslims from muslims that have verbalized some sort of support for terrorism.

/e it's a bit like why Obama didn't want to use the phrase radical Islam iirc

It's always been that way. If it ain't the Muslims or the IRA it's the druggies and the gangs. Like many capitals it's a place people go to get rich or get lost. It's not a place for people who care about people.

I dont think that 'we' can do very much to pull muslims over the fence from the terror-supporting to the non-terrorist side - they have to do it on their own, they need to find the inner strength to leave violence and extremism behind.

When it comes to dealing with Islam, I see two main tasks for us:

1.: Separate the non-terrorist muslims who are willing to integrate into our culture from the terrorism-supporters and integration-refusers. This is where the dividing line should be placed, and not between muslims and non-muslims.
2.: Protect us from those muslims who hold and/or support extrimist beliefs, and from those who refuse to integrate into our culture.

Converting doubtful candidates who are on the fence is a minor subtask with lower priority. Nice if we can pull it off, but it would be naive to expect this to happen in meaningful numbers.


Get the cia out of the middle east and stop interfering on behalf of the oil companies and you would not get half the hate you do currently.
Open support and sponsorship for israel is also not winning any friends.
