You know Bill--I don't even care if they integrate or not. They have a right to live their lives as they see fit. But they don't have a right to see that MY life is lived as to how they see fit. If the Jack-ass above is trying to school me on how to think---he's WAY OFF in his thinking.
I think I do understand your point here. We don't want murderous fanatics imposing their fucked up principles on the rest of us. And certainly not in western countries. And I agree.
That's it in a nutshell, Bill. I grew up here. I've ALWAYS been free. I'll not give it up for those whom I referenced OR those home grown types either.
The right wing is always making it sound like we have to keep up our guard against sharia law. And I suppose we do. But has there been a single case in the US of any state or local government giving in to these Muslim demands? It seems to me that it's mainly the right trying to gain power by making us afraid of a non-issue.
I'm sure that's true. It happens all the time. Muslims=oooo scared. Ebola= oooo scared. My remarks were because of what I saw on 60 minutes in a country that now seemingly has enough of the radical muslims to start calling for the end of their parliamentary system. And to begin telling citizens how to act in neighborhoods of their adopted country. But, I agree with you about the constant stirring of useless topics by the media.
my point, is that neither do you. also you, like media pundets scape goating them, speak of sharia law, as if this were some document or collection of documents with which you have some familiarity. if so, you could you possibly post a link to these documents so that the rest of us might be similarly enlightened?
Documents are not the issue. Homicidal religious maniacs and those that live in a free country and claim to want it to NOT be a free country was my concern. "my point is is neither do you," What? Can you please, please get it through your head that ahhh --- I really don't know what you're trying to prove with me. You pal--are a true knucklehead. Done.
neither do you "have a right to see that MY life is lived as to how" YOU "see fit". documents become an issue when you claim them as an excuse for scape goating.
OK. One more. If I happened to mention that most serial killers are white--would you then jump on me for slandering the white race?? See, this is what you are doing. I'm talking about a certain kind of religious maniac--ie: a CERTAIN PORTION of a particular religion believes it necessary to kill others for their own reasons. NOT ALL adherents OF THAT PARTICULAR RELIGION. Some believe that the freedom that they, themselves enjoy in western countries should be curtailed and/or ended----which means even for themselves. Ironic. AGAIN====JUST SOME.
Hey--I don't care how you live your life. Not at all. As a fellow human, I wish you well---but that's it.
So do you have the same hissy fit every time you drive through a county that can't sell liquor on the Sabbath?
For sure these muslims must have been dimmed out of the political/historical sidtuation, an making up stuff nowhere written about the Sharia Law. They know Sharia Law was voted upon at first; then subjegated to.
I have seen a documentary about it. It is appalling. I'm really surprised that British society is putting up with this shit. I don't think Muslims would dare to do the same in the US. They all know Americans have the right to carry guns and fire in self-defense. They are tightening immigration now as a result, but it sucks for non-muslims since its collective punishment of a sort.
What you saw on 60 minutes, Muslims holding signs wanting to end democracy is tolerated, because we do shit on them in the rest of the world, theres a certain amount of guilt there. If instead of Muslims holding signs about sharia law it was Nazis holding signs about erradicating non Aryan races how differently would everyone else react? Its a threat that can culminate in and bombs on trains and such, but never into WWIII type stuff. I'm more worried about the way Russia has been acting lately, or what would happen if China ever descends into civil war
Surely religion is a part of culture? I don't think it's at all easy to separate the two, especially in this case, because without Islam there wouldn't be any concept of Sharia law, Jihad etc.
