Best regards, and keep up the good work fighting for our gun rights. We’re gonna need em.

We can expect Muslims to accept and live within the American political traditions and still respect their right to worship as they please. I don’t see the two things as mutually exclusive. The problem in Europe is that Europeans aren’t forcing their Muslim populations to live within the bounds of their political traditions. There’s a big difference between accommodating ones religious beliefs by an employer respecting the religious traditions of its employees, and acquiescing to entire communities practicing Sharia Law, or by demanding the culture at large submit and cater to Islamic standards of behavior.

I’ll wager my house that you will never see a Muslim in the US military get a medal for throwing himself on a grenade to save his infidel buddies. Ain’t gonna happen, evah.

Read the blogs from Sweden, Denmark, Belgium, France and the UK. Just read the headlines. When Muslims are 3-5% of the population things start getting decidedly less civil around them.

Nothing good is good is going to come of our (or the West’s) attempts to pacify Islam by pretending that they want to be pacified, or by pretending that they would give their Jewish or Christian co-workes the same consideration if the situation were reversed. Which they clearly don’t (no non-Muslim in their right mind wants to go live in Pakistan, Yemen, or even Turkey).

In not too many more years Americans are going to start being very sorry that we’ve imported tens of thousands of Muslims who don’t want to be – Americans.
