Your "faction" is a "fraction"
The number of crazed Muslims running around America randomly killing people is very small. The biggest threat right now is gang related killings which we just shrug off. I didn't say don't fight both but the resources allocated to fighting terrorism is misallocated based on the actual threat
Over 8000 murders in the US last year with a few dozen by terrorists
That tiny fraction makes up a lot of people. And like I said before, many of them are terrorist sympathizers if not terrorists. Without the antiterrorist apparatus that we have terrorists would destroy the country. We're spending all this money to combat terrorism because it's a deterrent and the threat is legitimate. Gangs aren't looking to inflict mass casualties all over the country. Terrorists are. They are at war with America.
There are 2 million Muslim in the US
As a group they lomj higher educated and more law abiding than most other groups
We need Muslims. We need them in our military. We need them aiding police forces
We don't need them. This country survived for long time without muslims. Also very few of them serve in the military so I don't know what you're talking about. The negatives outweigh the Positives by far. We're safer without importing them.
We do need them....especially in the military, Homeland Security and fighting terrorism
Our troops are in strange territory hostile to Americans. Not having soldiers who can speak the language and understand local customs is a detriment. You need soldiers who can interrogate prisoners, read the language, and ask questions of the local population
Muslims are very important to our military
Yet very few muslims serve the military.
Minuscule Number of Muslims Serve in US Military as Share of Population
I know....the Military has to do a better job
