IM WRITING HIS NAME IN REGARDLESS OF WHAT THE BALLOT SAYS
S.J.WYou seem to be forgetting that within the middle east it's mostly muslims killing muslims. (and that IS doesn't even own a Quran...) And America has killed more civilians than IS, Al Queda, whoever have killed Americans. But thank you for bringing up the 7/7 bombers. However, you seem to be forgetting about the IRA, they killed 1696 people over their span trying to make Ireland a republic. Or did you not hear about them because they're white? Point is, every aspect of the politics and religion have terrorists. Some receive more air time (Islam) because it can persuade people into thinking the war within the middle east is a good thing. Ever since governments learned that people don't like war (Vietnman), the media tries so hard to paint this picture of why we need to invade other countries, so people don't protest and they lose power.And why the fuck do you keep bringing up Karl Marx? Democratic socialism isn't fucking communism you idiot. Are you so much of a close minded idiot that you can't even accept the fact that they are different?
It is not just Muslims killing Muslims, it is also Muslims killing religious minorities. Look up who the Houthis, Kurds, Yazidis, and Druze are. Some are offshoots of Islam, others Christianity, and others Judaism. It is not just ISIS targeting these groups.
ISIS does not "own" a Quran but they follow the Wahhabi/Salafi version of Islam. Wahhabist versions of the Quran are the most published Quran on the planet thanks to Saudi Arabia. It is an extremely pious version of Islam and it is what almost all radical Islamists adhere to. It is the version that truly discusses jihad.
Some of your posts make me want to bang my head on my desk they are so ignorant and off-based. You lack a concrete understanding of international relations, the relationship between media and government, and a lot of historical connections to current and past events.

Thou shall not convert by way of the sword, also the Quran gives women, I believe more rights than men. ( although I could be wrong on that I'm remembering that wording for what was told to me about 2 years ago) I tend to ignore him, or tell him about how great it was to banging his mother, usually works pretty well.

The world doesn't revolve around you learn to read and learn how to post up a proper study. You mad bro? That is a quote that is actually correct from the Quran so no you wouldn't have said it.

That's wrong then. I don't know who Didier Francois is but he is an idiot. ISIS whole agenda is based around establishing a caliphate that was discussed in the Quran, they follow sharia law which is again found in the Quran, and they use the Quran to justify their violence. Their leader, Al Baghdadi used to be an imam and received his pHD in Quranic studies. Now, not all members may be as devout as their leader, but the members who have been with ISIS since it was known as Al-Qaeda in Iraq most certainly are.
onenerdykidEspecially when their mind is full of nonsense and hatred. Speaking your mind is only good quality if you have good things on your mind. Flying off the handle with racist tirades based on illogical fallacies is not a good quality to have and certainly not a quality befitting a world leader.At least Bernie is a candidate who does speak his mind and has positive ways to improve our society at the same time. If people are interested in a candidate who honestly speaks his mind, he is a much better choice than Trump.
illogical fallacies is redundant

Didier Francois was a journalist captured by Isis and in his months of capture he said he did not see any qurans. For a group claiming to be so devout as Isis it seems strange they don't own a quran

I am going to guess and say they held him captive, as in he had little to no freedom to move around and observe. He also seems to lack the any knowledge about the religion or even the ability to do any research. You do not need a Quran to pray, this is not Christianity. Prayer for Muslims does not require sermons like services in a church, it requires simple recitations that are quite often easy to memorize. There can be Imams who will lead recitations, but it is not a necessity.
Please, do some research on Islam as a religion before you talk about it. It is so very different than Christianity.

But doesn't it seem strange that a group that claims to be all about Islam doesn't even own a quran? And nope, Islam and Christianity are in the same book in my opinion. Both dumb, regressive religions like every other religion and I can't pray for the day that religion of any kind is no longer.

He is making an assumption about a group that is over 20,000 strong which again, makes me question his intelligence.
And yes they both may have repressive elements and lots of hypocrisy, but they are not practiced in a similar manner.
God, for someone who considers oneself liberal and openminded you certainly are not.

Islam is similar to Christianity, both believe that:
- There is only one God. He is the Creator and Sustainer of the universe.
- God sent prophets such as Noah, Abraham, Moses, David, Joseph, John the Baptist, Jesus, etc.
- People should follow the Ten Commandments and the moral teachings of the prophets.
- Mary, the mother of Jesus, was a virgin; therefore Jesus was born miraculously.
- Jesus Christ is the Messiah and he performed miracles.
- The Old testament/Torah and the new testament/Gospel) are holy scriptures.
- Satan is evil; therefore, people should not follow Satan.
- An Anti-Christ will appear on Earth before the Day of Judgment.
- Jesus Christ will return by descending from Heaven and will kill the Anti-Christ.
- The Day of Judgment will occur and people will be judged.
- There is hell and paradise.

This is a very simplified version of the similarities. Muslim's do not take the Old and New Testament to be the true teachings of God, but rather a corrupted and incomplete version. The Quran is the non-distorted version. They also do not see Jesus as the final prophet, that is Muhammed. Depending on which sect is questioned, the Anti-Christ will be killed by either Jesus or another important religious figure, Muhammed al-Mahdi.
Obviously there is overlap, but to say they are not as similar as their exterior would indicate. The Hadiths and Sharia law are VERY different than the 10 Commandments.

I mean, lets not forget this
Public Policy Polling also polled Democratic primary voters: only 19% of them said they would support bombing Agrabah, while 36% said they would oppose it.
I think it has more to do with the idea of support vs opposition versus the fact it is a made up city....

Yeah I know its bad on both sides of the table. I just think its funny that in general Americans are for bombing a city without even knowing what or where the city is, as long as it sounds middle-eastern. And people wonder why the world hates us...

I'm 100% on the trump train. Hilary/Sanders would be an Obama 2.0 if not worse which is what this country does not even remotely need.
People hate success and rich people in America today that is just fact. I respect Trump for developing a multi billion dollar company. He is a very very smart man and would be very beneficial for this country.I look up to Trump and hope I can be half as successful as him.
The fact someone can vote for one of the most corrupt politicians in US history (Hilary) is mindblowing...not to mention she brought in her Husband now, who was IMPEACHED. Good example to set for this country...

Idk if you took a civics class but forcing Muslims to have identification cards would never hold up in a court case, and refusing to admit Muslim immigrants due to their race is unconstitutional.

Triple post but to further pick apart your argument I can give one quick example of the top of my head that they contribute to society, HHRD was put as one of the top ten charities in the U.S., a Muslim charity mind you. Sears tower (Willis tower) in Chicago was designed by a Muslim...

Cool...a couple muslims out of the millions contributed to our society. The vast majority of them refuse to integrate with our culture and demand demand demand we change our ways to suit theirs.
How about this....62% of illegal immigrants (From all countries) are on welfare. The reason they come to Germany, US, Britain, etc is because they have the best welfare. Its quite obvious.
I'd be more than happy to have these people come into our country ONLY WHEN EVERY SINGLE HOMELESS VETERAN is given free housing,food, etc as well.
We need to help our own before we help others. The world is not the same as it was around WWII when we experienced our last major immigration wave

okay im going to pick apart this argument. apart.
For the most part muslims integrate within society. It depends on which country they come from. For example, muslims from Iran or countries with dictatorships hold values that more regressive than those muslims who come from turkey or Tanzania. Aswell as there's a clear correlation between western values and muslim immigrants to where they hold higher value of things like freedom of speech and other core western values than compared o the country they are migrating from. This clearly shows that they are integrating.
You can read all about muslim integration here.
Secondly, I find it rather hypocritical of you to condemn migrants who are on welfare but praise Donald Trump for using tax loopholes. Let's not forget that the average American pays more money to government subsidies than they do for welfare. So who are the real welfare queens? Migrants just trying to better their life, or big corporations that you ever so seem to love. Let's also not forget that welfare actually helps people create a better life for themselves. Think of welfare like an investment.
I'm going to assume you're republican, which means that your chosen political party hasn't voted to help the homeless or veterans in a very long time. Why is that republicans only seem to care about vets and homeless people when it suits them and yet won't vote for any bill actually helping homeless people and the vets?
LonelyNot to mention that the UK is currently debating banning trump.That's one of our closest allies if ya didn't know
That means something's wrong with the man
No, it means there's something wrong with the UK, that's been clear for a while. More Muslims from the UK went to fight for ISIS and other jihadist rebels in Syria than are in the whole British military. They don't like focusing on the Trump statements that are factual.
Meanwhile, no justice for all the 12-15 year old girls in Rotherham, no justice for the girls in Cologne, no justice for the murdered in Paris. The enemy is in their backyard.
An ISIS fanatic attempted an assassination of a police officer today in Philadelphia. Two "refugees" were arrested yesterday in Houston and Sacramento for being part of ISIS and other terrorist organizations.
And Trump is the one who should be banned?
"To find out who rules over you, simply find out who you are not allowed to criticize"
-Voltaire
CampeadorAnd say what you like about the man, but he just went into Burlington, Vermont to a sold-out crowd, a few blocks from the Sanders HQ.
One of the things that bothered me about him speaking at the Flynn Theater in Burlington, is that upon entering the theater all attendees were asked if they were a Trump supporter or not. If you said no, I support Bernie, you were denied entry even if you pre-booked and pre-paid or had a legit ticket and waited hours in line out in the cold. That's just straight up wrong on many levels. So it should come as no surprise that he had a full house of supporters (theater only seats 1,400 btw). Most of the supporters in the theater, he had bused in.
I also watched the speech he gave that night online, and he sadly (yet unsurprisingly) had nothing at all to say about his policies or plans. He just spoke about how awesome he and his supporters were, how good he is at making money, and made fun of anyone who was not on the same page as him. It really was like watching a high school popularity contest made up of ignorant asshats.
I have absolutely no problem with people disagreeing with Bernie. But if you do (especially if you are a presidential candidate!) have your shit together and bring cogent arguments to the table. Barking nonsense that only appeals to the most ignorant people this country has to offer is doing no one any favors.

These people are coming to leach off our welfare and not only that they are not leaving their evil stone age culture behind but trying to bring it with them.
The straws people are clutching at to defend these people is ridiculous.
FURTHERMORE Muslims who have been in the west for generations/decades honestly aren't that problematic its only the newcomers who are preaching their hate and supporting radical Islam. Just stop letting them in period you are not only screwing over the regular non muslim people but you are fucking the good muslims who embrace Western values and don't support radical Islam letting in this trash.

"These people" are trying to get away from a civil war that's been going on for the past 5 years and has killed over 320,000 people. Sounds like a pretty reasonable reason to want to move? The systems that are in place are the reason these people end up in the welfare system. I know professionals (teachers, professors, doctors, nurses, etc) who have ended up working minimum wage jobs or on welfare because their qualifications and experience isn't recognized. You think that's what they want?
I deal with newcomers every day. None of them are preaching hate or support radical Islam. Quit making ridiculous blanket statements about an entire group of people.
Attitudes like yours are the reason the rest of the world thinks American's are racist, intolerant rednecks.

So, if you'd be so kind, explain to me why they risk life and limb to reach countries like Germany and Sweden? Shouldn't they be content in the first nation they enter that is not at war, i.e. Turkey?
Once they try to leave Turkey for Europe, they are no longer refugees, they are opportunist economic migrants. Turkey is not at war, and as such, those migrating from Turkey cannot be labelled refugees. You cannot deny that almost all of them are going into Europe solely for welfare benefits, and in many cases (as it was in Cologne), to sexually assault European girls.
But I suppose reality is "racist".
