From a comment to this post at Scott Adams’ Blog:
Observation: Since before humans were humans, they formed tribes and fought for resources and territory.
Liberal Hypothesis: we can all live together regardless of culture.
Problem: The hypothesis isn’t scientific, as it doesn’t explain past data.
Experiment: Mix Westerners with Moslems
Experimental results: horrifically murdered little girls, hundreds injured. Repeat experiment, get same results in France, Germany, Sweden…
Liberal Conclusion: Get used to your children being killed, “we’re all in this together”, the hypothesis is not shown to be wrong.
So I know some folks find Crowder hard to take, but I found this particularly entertaining. https://www.louderwithcrowder.com/white-women-cultural-appropriation-burritos/
We have one large problem to overcome and until it is done nothing will happen of a positive nature in resolving the Muslim Terrorist question. Our main problem is that we have a very, very strong tradition of believing in freedom of Religion and respecting other people’s right to practice their religion. This is one of our country’s greatest strengths but in regards to dealing with Islam and Islamic terrorism it is our greatest weakness. Until we are prepared to view Islam as an existential threat to our civilization and threat it as a competing political, social and economic way of life and fight it accordingly we may be able to maintain the balance we are suffering through right now but we will never be rid of the problem. Islam must be fought like Nazism not treated like a fellow supporter of our way of life.
When it comes to Islam we have 4 choices:
1) Submit to Islam.
2) Move to a different country where Islam hasn’t taken root.
3) Pay protection money and be a second class citizen. What
is known as a dhimmi.
4) Be killed.
See, you do have choices. It’s not so bad.
Given Islam’s tenets 2 may only be a short term option.
leftists will argue that muslims aren’t given the opportunity to assimilate. That’s why we have incidents like Fort Hood or San Bernardino. Same argument they make for all their beliefs (socialism) when they don’t work.
The reason we should not call it “radical Islam” is that it is not radical. It is main stream.
