Mikey typically ignores important facts. The big one in this case? NONE of the terrorists who have attacked the US have slipped through an unguarded point in the US – Mexican (or US – Canadian) border.
When Mikey uses the terrorist argument he is using the fear tactic common with sleazy political hacks. Which pretty much describes him.
IMO the danger is beyond borders.(we do need authorities to do all possible to try to secure our borders). The British soldier slaughtered yesterday in the suburb of London, 200 yards from the British Artillery Barracks in Woolich, by 2 Nigerians born in England, was a homegrown Jihad terrorist murder. The soldier wore a charity “Help for Heroes” hoodie, and it was 2 pm local time in a sunny day city attack, and it took police 20 minutes to arrive at the scene. This could be happening anyplace in America, especially where populations attend Mosque services with Imams who preach violent Jihad.-Law enforcement and military must stop the Politically Correct “surrender” MO and start identifying sources and followers of radical Jihad, and start keeping tabs on potential murderers instead of keeping tabs on reporters and conservatives using the 1st Amendment in peaceful modes.
Total deaths to “terrorists” since 2001, hmm, about the same as the number of people killed, EVERY DAY in the U.S. with guns handled by “good old Americans”! Crips and bloods, and hundreds of other gangs in the U.S. kill each other with little regard for bystanders, because they want their “turf” for themselves.
Hmm, sounds about like Ramirez and those pointing their fingers at Muslims, Sikhs, or anyone else not part of THEIR “gang”, ethnic, religious, or “political”.
The biggest flood coming through that “porous” border, is supplying drugs to the U.S. because the “war on drugs” is just as big a waste as the “war on terror”. Much of it comes in by semi-truck through legitimate checkpoints that can’t keep up with the flood. Also, the flood of PRESCRIPTION drugs being illegally sold, because supplies are manufactured far in excess of legitimate quantities, doesn’t get much play, because those “corporate persons” aren’t regulated nearly as strictly as needed.
We do have some serious problems in this country, but “radical Muslims” sneaking across our borders, aren’t really one of them. Fear mongering IS among those most serious problems.
btw, Onguard, get McConnell to put a stop to his side filibustering, or threatening to filibuster, almost every piece of legislation, or Boehner deliberately inserting absurd amendments to legislation in the House, and things may move forward.
A terrorist does not wear a sign saying terrorist. He wears student visa, then refuses to leave or go to school, he uses refugee, but fails to complete the process, he uses visitor, then refuses to go home. They obtain “legally” all the docs they need to make it here so they can sit and wait for orders or make money to build an operation. INS cant do anything this as the countries they come from are listed as “Too bad there to send back”. Outrage will follow from those folks going OH HELP THESE POOR PEOPLE. They just want a better life. When they find it is not a hand out then they get disenchanted and are rip to make into a terrorist to at least get some AIR time and be famous.They are already here as Boston showed. It just when they strike will be the question. US laws protect them and you from illegal government stuff. It does not mean we know it just nothing we can do till a LAW is broken. We are not NAZI Germany.

The terrorist parody is at least recognisable as a human being.

“As long as we keep foolishly accepting muslims into our military and within our borders we will remain far more vulnerable than necessary.”
When do you suggest we start building internment camps for Muslims? And do we have enough room at Guantanamo?

If someone wants to be a US citizen, we should be honored to have them.
There have been 37 deaths in the US from terrorism since 2001. Less than from sharks. I would be happy to deny sharks citizenship.

Because Canada and Mexico are crammed full of terrorists, then again Al Canada is clearly in the middle east and Mexico is clearly in Asia
You gotta love it when society really has no idea of where it is on the globe
