Mercer: A Muslim Ban Won't Kill Americans -- Accepting Them Might
[WND] CNN’s Jake Tapper wanted to know if there was anything that could have prevented the murderous rampage, in Manhattan, by a Muslim immigrant who had been recruited to live in America for no good reason. Once upon a time that was known as a rhetorical question. To ask the question would have been to answer it.Broadcaster Mark Levin was no less obscurantist. You can’t bring certain individuals like the culprit, Uzbek Sayfullo Saipov, into the U.S. because ... of their governments, Levin raged on Fox News. There’s no way to vet individuals from chaotic countries with ineffective governments. Sure, you can vet immigrants. Find out which faith they practice. Mark should have said, "You can’t bring Muslims into the U.S. because of their faith. It predisposes them to violence," which is pretty much what President Donald J. Trump stated during his 2016 campaign. The president’s first limited, immigration moratorium has expired. Let us hope that, following the murder-by-Muslim-immigrant of eight pedestrians along Manhattan’s West Side Highway ‐ Saipov ran them over in a rented pickup truck ‐ the president follows through, in the teeth of treasonous opposition, and expands the original "travel ban" beyond the six Muslim-majority nations to which it applied. For a Muslim ban is neither illogical, immoral, nor un-libertarian. Posted by: Besoeker 2017-11-03 |
