    Not offensive. Plenty of people say offensive things. It's about specifically inciting hatred based on an 'protected attribute' such as race, gender, sexuality, religion etc. The same things you can't be fired for, basically.

    Pamela Geller got barred from entering the UK.

    So for being offensive?

  • There a 1.6 billion Muslims in the world.

    Choosing just 2% from the data below of Muslims believing that terrorism could be justified often, we come up with 320,000,000 million camel fuckers that believe terrorism is justified often....the population of the U.S.

    Did that help you liberal simpletons put things into perspective?

    (36 vs 64) 64% of Muslims in France believed it could never be justified, 19% believed it could be justified rarely, 10% sometimes, and 6% thought it could be justified often.

    (30 vs 70) 70% of Muslims in Britain believed it could never be justified, 9% believed it could be justified rarely, 12% sometimes, and 3% thought it could be justified often.

    (17 vs 83) 83% of Muslims in Germany believed it could never be justified, 6% believed it could be justified rarely, 6% sometimes, and 1% thought it could be justified often.

    (31 vs 69) 69% of Muslims in Spain believed it could never be justified, 9% believed it could be justified rarely, 10% sometimes, and 6% thought it could be justified often.

    In mainly Muslim countries:

    (55 vs 45) 45% of Muslims in Egypt believed it could never be justified, 25% believed it could be justified rarely, 20% sometimes, and 8% thought it could be justified often.

    (39 vs 61) 61% of Muslims in Turkey believed it could never be justified, 9% believed it could be justified rarely, 14% sometimes, and 3% thought it could be justified often.

    (57 vs 43) 43% of Muslims in Jordan believed it could never be justified, 28% believed it could be justified rarely, 24% sometimes, and 5% thought it could be justified often.

    (72 vs 28) 28% of Muslims in Nigeria believed it could never be justified, 23% believed it could be justified rarely, 38% sometimes, and 8% thought it could be justified often.

    (31 vs 69) 69% of Muslims in Pakistan believed it could never be justified, 8% believed it could be justified rarely, 7% sometimes, and 7% thought it could be justified often.

    (29 vs 71) 71% of Muslims in Indonesia believed it could never be justified, 18% believed it could be justified rarely, 8% sometimes, and 2% thought it could be justified often.

    John Esposito, using poll data from Gallup, wrote in 2008 that Muslims and Americans were equally likely to reject violence against civilians. He also found that those Muslims who support violence against civilians are no more religious than Muslims who do not.[28]

    A 2010 Zogby poll reported that 69% of American Muslims supported stronger laws to fight terrorism.[29]

    A 2013 Pew Research Center poll asked Muslims around the world whether attacks on civilians were justified. Globally 72% of Muslims said violence against civilians is never justified, and in the US, 81% of Muslims opposed such violence. About 14% of Muslims in the nations surveyed (and 8% of Muslims in the US) said violence against civilians is "often" or "sometimes" justified. 26% of Muslims in Bangladesh believe attacks are either somewhat justified or often justified, 18% in Malaysia, 7% in Iraq, 15% in Jordan, 29% in Egypt, 39% in Afghanistan and 40% in the Palestinian territories.[30][31][32] The survey did not include some Muslim nations, such as Iran, Saudi Arabia, Algeria, Yemen, Syria, and Libya, but did include densely populated Muslim countries such as Pakistan, Turkey, Egypt, Nigeria and Indonesia.[33] According to a 2007 poll conducted by the PolicyExchange think tank in Britain, nearly 60% said they would prefer to live under British law, while 37% of 16- to 24-year-olds said they would prefer sharia law, against 17% of those over 55. Also, 36%[34] of 16- to 24-year-olds British Muslims believed that those converting to another religion should be executed. Less than a fifth of those over 55 think so.[35]

    So how did Trump incite hatred?

    The only hatred I saw come from all this was from leftists and democrat/republican politicians..hatred toward Trump.

  • oth, Carter banned immigration of Iranians back in the day. I think liberals agreed with that.

    But let a non-liberal knee jerk about banning the immigration of Muslims, well, that's "offensive".

    We can't let the whole world come here to live - there isn't room. Control it, and freaking VET

    every single one.

    I still say, all this wailing over what Trump said, that was dumb, and that German Christian family

    was refused to be allowed to stay in the U.S., and the obamao regime fought and fought

    to make them go back to Germany.

    I mean, seriously?

    Cal there is a difference between banning immigration based on national affiliation vs. religious affiliation.

    War in the Middle East? The refugee problem? Isis?

    Have I misunderstood you?

    I'm curious, do you believe the US bears no responsibility for any of these things?

    I'm pretty sure all these problems existed in the middle east hundreds of years before the conquerers set foot in America. But yes, we are embroiled in thousand year old conflicts so to some degree we are responsible but what excuse did muslims use to murder before the west was a thing? The line of succession of Mohammed? Whether ali or Abu Bakr was better?

  • Os - of course there is, but is it any better to say that we should ban

    all immigration from all terrorist countries?

    Like I mentioned earlier - there is a huge political aspect to too many people

    who look to Islam. Terrorists have been proven to have inflitrated the mass immigration

    movement. It's beyond banning from a country. What else is there to do?

    Put a hold on ALL immigration, just as to not profile Muslims coming from radical countries.

    oh the math!! the horrible math!!! It's not like there's a calculator function that's been on all phones for like 20 years or something, like how sweet would that be? I should totally patent that idea.

    we're definitely stirring the hornets nest of shit though wouldn't you agree? Yes those old conflicts have always been there but at least for some time they were confined and isolated. Now because of brilliant foreign policy strategy we're introducing the whole planet to what a non secular fuckhole the midde east is.

  • Again i'm calling for a military blockade of the middle east. Erect safe zones in places so that military equipment is kept out of them for the most part. That gives a sort of refugee haven where these people can go and have some semblance of safety. In the other places, let them fight. Like the jap dude in Godzila, let htem fight.
