Your proud Republican statesman, convention speaker, and 2016 VP finalist Newt Gingrich, in his own words:

 

http://mediamatters.org/video/2016/07/14/fox-newt-gingrich-calls-muslims-be-deported-if-they-believe-sharia/211594

 

We should frankly test every person here who is of a Muslim background, and if they believe in Sharia, they should be deported. (...)

 

Anybody who goes on a website favoring ISIS, or Al Qaeda, or other terrorist groups, that should be a felony, and they should go to jail. (...)

 

Look, the first step is you have to ask them the questions. The second step is you have to monitor what they're doing on the internet. The third step is -- let me be very clear. You have to monitor the mosques. (...)

Great, great guy.

A longtime Wichita Mediterranean restaurant has found itself in the middle of a social media storm started earlier this week after a diner posted on Facebook that the restaurant should be avoided because it’s owned by “A Muslim named Muhammad.”

“So much for eating here ever again,” the post read.

The post was shared and re-shared, and now a group of Le Monde supporters have planned a Wednesday night meetup at the restaurant to show its owners support – and give them some business.

"Le Monde" means "The World," exposure to which would do the typical small-town Kansan or Nebraskan some good.

Meat & potatoes are fine foods. So is shawarma, curry, confit du cannard, feijoida, lahmacun, hummus, dolmas, paella, baba ghanouj...

If nothing else, different cultures in your town mean different, often better food than you're used to. Stop being xenophobic for entirely selfish reasons if you have to. Just enjoy some good food.

Funny, you want to deeper gun laws, even banning them, to stop the deaths but yet you have no problem letting these people into this country without being checked out? lol, gotta love this mindset.

 

 

Think about this for a minute.. further restrict law abiding citizens, but give free access for those who have potential to kill massive groups of Americans...

What? We're letting "these people" into our country without checking them? That's ridiculous!!! There is no way that can be true, can it???!

 

What is wrong with us!!!!!

 

edit: After looking long and hard (like 15 whole seconds) I found this link. https://www.whitehouse.gov/blog/2015/11/20/infographic-screening-process-refugee-entry-united-states.

 

Reminds me of the old slogan, "POP, POP, FIZZ, FIZZ, oh what a relief it is!"

Anyone has the potential to massive groups of Americans. That's not exclusive to Muslims. So do we have to test everyone?

 

For a country so averse to government surveillance, a lot of us sure don't seem to mind if it's done to the scary brown people...

http://www.centerforsecuritypolicy.org/2015/06/23/nationwide-poll-of-us-muslims-shows-thousands-support-shariah-jihad/

 

 

According to a new nationwide online survey (Below) of 600 Muslims living in the United States, of those polled a significant minority embraces the supremacist notions that could pose a threat to America’s security and its constitutional form of government.*

 

The numbers of potential jihadists among the majority of Muslims who appear not to be sympathetic to such notions raise a number of public policy choices that warrant careful consideration and urgent debate, including: the necessity for enhanced surveillance of Muslim communities; refugee resettlement, asylum and other immigration programs that are swelling their numbers and density; and the viability of so-called “countering violent extremism” initiatives that are supposed to stymie radicalization within those communities.

 

Overall, the survey, which was conducted by The Polling Company for the Center for Security Policy (CSP), suggests that a substantial number of Muslims living in the United States see the country very differently than does the population overall. The sentiments of the latter were sampled in late May in another CSP-commissioned Polling Company nationwide survey.

Islamophobia huh? LOL So many ignorant fools who seem to have their heads up their own .....!

 

Nothing irrational or insane about being afraid of Muslim nuts! And when 20% of the world's 2 Billion Muslims support and agree with this crap, Yes, it seems quite reasonable to fear their lunacy. Sharia Muslims avow to overthrow the American government and do not follow or obey our laws. They are simply enemies of the people and government of the United States and should be deported or arrested and jailed for their treasonous acts against the country.

 

This is NOT phobia. It is real as can be and alive and well and spreading throughout the world and particularly in the United States. The FBI and Hillary protector Comey has declared there are literally hundreds of on going FBI investigations of radical Muslimes all over (in every state in fact).

I highly doubt 600 Muslims represent the population of American Muslims. The fact that the authors don't give their methodology casts further doubt on their claims as well.

Newt Gingrich embraces notions that pose a threat to the United States Constitutional form of government....

 

That said, since we are talking about Muslims throughout the world. Let me mention again, as others have, that ISIS has killed far more Muslims than any other group of people. The Iraqi forces, Syrian forces, Syrian rebels, and most other groups fighting against ISIS are also made up of a far majority of Muslims.

 

ISIS is a radical Islamic group, everyone knows that. That is not doubted by ANYONE, no matter how hard Trump tries to sell that idea. But, the world is at a crossroad. We, as in the world, can either bunker down and wage ware on Islam and let this thing get really, really ugly. Or we can all recognize that ISIS, although self-identified as Muslim, does not begin to share the same ideology as almost all other Muslims. If we act strategically and carefully, to bring in the overwhelmingly majority of peaceful Muslims, who would be more than happy to help make the world a safer place, we can limit the recruitment of future attackers.

 

Please understand, I have no problem whatsoever of using military forces against ISIS, which is already happening. I have no problem checking the background of refugees, which is already happening. I have no problem with people turning in suspicious behavior, which is already happening (although, to a fault in several instances. I believe the government should look at the Internet industry and with the help of its leaders try to minimize, if not eliminate, ISIS' propaganda.
