First of all: you are crazy: The security steps before entering any air plane are the same EVERYWHERE, South America, Central America, Europe, Asia...EVERYWHERE!
There no country called America; there is a continent, yes, but not a country!
Islam is not a faction, it's a religion! (No, I'm not Islamic...) and it's certainly not a dilemma! What's wrong with you!
You might not be the only one feeling that way; you might be 2 or 3 (including Bush...or "mister Danger").
You are so close-minded that it sounds kind of stupid (actually, it sounds more like a joke...)
I hope you change you're mind, I hope you have (the opportunity) to travel to any other counties and realize how wrong you are...
With this comment posted on (or against) part one; I will begin this second part. First; I’m glad we still have the opportunity to practice free speech in America to date. Judging by the events in Venezuela, (it won’t be long if these radical control freaks have their way) America will fall victim to dictatorial designs. Freedom of speech will prove costly just like it did under Stalin, Lenin et al of the Communist, Socialist persuasion in Europe as we note from history lessons.
And; speaking of which; another lesson is needed in this part also! It seems that our critic either knows not; or refuses to know; the true history of America and the reason for its existence? But; first we need to clarify a few things. One; I am a very well traveled individual. I have traveled extensively, domestically and foreign. I have passed through severe check points both entering and exiting the foreign country of visitation. I expect this in most foreign countries, and; experienced it prior to any 911 incident. And; second; I do not live in a vacuum. When I write on something, I know whereof I speak. My curricula vitae will attest for that. But; this is not the point or bone of contention at this time.
And; speaking of immigrants; what is required of any immigrant? What did a former SCOTUS judge have to say about immigrants?
“Supreme Court Justice Louis Brandeis, immigrant and first Jewish member of the Supreme Court, said that Americanization required that the immigrant adopt "the clothes, the manners and the customs generally prevailing here" and that he adopts "the English language as the common medium of speech." But, Brandeis said, this is only part of it. "(W)e properly demand of the immigrant even more than this – he must be brought into complete harmony with our ideals and aspirations and cooperate with us for their attainment. Only when this has been done will he possess the national consciousness of an American." (Coulter, 2007: WND) Now; what part of this is incomprehensible?
Now to belie the country continent fallacy; America was and still is (for now) a country with real borders. Albeit; these are now at risk with secret legislation and designs to make this one continent and; borderless from Latin America to the Artic Circle! Wonder what set of numbskulls dreamed this one up? Anyway; most likely some lunatic fringe socialist minded secret society! (You need to read Brotherhood of Darkness for more information on these whackos!) Originally; America was an escape from everything wrong in tyrannically run countries. We see this governmental disparity in many European and Islamic run countries yet today! America was founded for/in freedom and to remain free was the original intent. And; try as they may; some still want to make America a slave country to this day, a colony! Some even see America as another third-world country!
Now; the contention seemly lies in making the immigrants follow the rules of immigration. Many immigrants are still willing to endure the lengthy process of becoming Americans, and; I’m glad for them, and; welcome to our country! But; others of lesser degree want the easy lazy route paved with hand-outs and freebies to be their choice of entry! Sounds like that worthless Socialist driven Democratic Party to me! And; I’m afraid the Republicans are following the path of least resistance also! Which is easier; making the illegal immigrants return to their country of origin or; giving them a free pass? Less processing, no round-up, zip, zero nada! Hit the easy button and viola-done deal!
What’ wrong with America today? Plenty! We have whiners and crybabies galore. We have people with sensitive feelings (or; so they say) that cannot or will not stand for the truth to come out about them; period! You tell them they have no clothes (or character) and they want to label your verbal assessments as bombastic or; tag it as hate speech! Or; you don’t know what you are doing or saying! Labeling or stereotyping you is in itself a form of neutralization or reverse propaganda! But; afterwards they who practice such; can feel good about themselves, because; they have requited you for their supposed injury! The truth is losing ground in America, because; history revisionists have rewritten the actual real time struggles America endued to become a country of freedom; into discombobulating diatribes and; fairy tale happenstances. No longer is the battle cry for freedom sounded in America! Now; its fall down and prostate yourself before the enemy! Good Grief!
Oh! And; that religion of peace; Islam? Islam is not a religion of peace! Islamic religion is a religion of forced compliance. Where have you been? Like an ostrich, with your head in the sand? Who’s feeding you this propagandized bovine scatology? And; you are swallowing this B.S. hook, line, and; sinker! And; closed minded? Me? I don’t think so! Rational thinker? Yes! Balanced thinker? Yes! Weigh the facts first? Yes! And; using facts to substantiate my dissertation; that’s me! I just don’t speak off the top of the head or engage in verbal diarrhea; as do some! Think and; then speak or write!
