BIGOT - A person who is intolerant to other people's opinions. Lol.George Washington Letter
George Washington and his Letter to the Jews of Newport
The original of Washington’s Letter to the Hebrew Congregations of Newport, Rhode Island is small in size, but its impact on American life is immense. In 340 well-chosen words, the Letter reassures those who had fled religious tyranny that life in their new nation would be different, that religious “toleration” would give way to religious liberty, and that the government would not interfere with individuals in matters of conscience and belief. Quoting the Bible’s Old Testament, Washington writes,
“every one shall sit in safety under his own vine and figtree, and there shall be none to make him afraid.”
He continues:
For happily the Government of the United States gives to bigotry no sanction, to persecution no assistance, requires only that they who live under its protection should demean themselves as good citizens, in giving it on all occasions their effectual support.1
When he wrote this particular letter in August of 1790, the new President must have been aware of the effect it would have on the fledgling nation. He could not have known the extent of its influence today. The history behind Washington’s Letter not only gives us an understanding of the values of the early colonists and our Founding Fathers, but also insight into two fundamental tenets of American democracy: the separation of church and state, and the right of individuals to believe in and practice their religion.
Trump will destroy the basic fundamental right of this nation -- which is freedom to worship without government persecution.
When Christians, Jews, and atheists are no longer being persecuted and are able to live freely and equally in Muslim nations, we'll entertain the idea accepting Muslims into our nation.
Who the fuck cares whether you "entertain the idea of accepting Muslims"?
You don't get a say, bigot. Muslims will continue come to this nation and make up an important part of American culture, whether you like it or not.
Perhaps "raging anti-American asshole" is a more appropriate term. Or "prejudiced piece of shit".[/QUOTE

And 70% of the world is not Muslim. Who knows what might happen if we got our act together. Incidentally, China has recently declared war on Isis too.There are one billion Muslims in the world. We can't win a war against all of them.

You can refuse to entertain the idea of accepting Muslims into this country as much as you want, but that's not going to stop them from coming.
Maybe yes, maybe not.
It's odd that we conservatives are not the ones disputing the value of people speaking and arguing their ideas, but instead it is you, the libs, confident in the power of his side that wants to dismiss debate and the contest of ideas in favor of MIght Makes RiGHT.
You take internet message boards way too seriously, dude.
This isn't a "debate", and the fact that I'm dismissing you clowns and your fear-mongering doesn't mean I'm "silencing" you - nor am I using "MIGHT" on you.
If you're so into the free exchange of ideas, why are you bitching and whining about what I'm saying?
BIGOT - A person who is intolerant to other people's opinions. Lol.George Washington Letter
George Washington and his Letter to the Jews of Newport
The original of Washington’s Letter to the Hebrew Congregations of Newport, Rhode Island is small in size, but its impact on American life is immense. In 340 well-chosen words, the Letter reassures those who had fled religious tyranny that life in their new nation would be different, that religious “toleration” would give way to religious liberty, and that the government would not interfere with individuals in matters of conscience and belief. Quoting the Bible’s Old Testament, Washington writes,
“every one shall sit in safety under his own vine and figtree, and there shall be none to make him afraid.”
He continues:
For happily the Government of the United States gives to bigotry no sanction, to persecution no assistance, requires only that they who live under its protection should demean themselves as good citizens, in giving it on all occasions their effectual support.1
When he wrote this particular letter in August of 1790, the new President must have been aware of the effect it would have on the fledgling nation. He could not have known the extent of its influence today. The history behind Washington’s Letter not only gives us an understanding of the values of the early colonists and our Founding Fathers, but also insight into two fundamental tenets of American democracy: the separation of church and state, and the right of individuals to believe in and practice their religion.
Trump will destroy the basic fundamental right of this nation -- which is freedom to worship without government persecution.
When Christians, Jews, and atheists are no longer being persecuted and are able to live freely and equally in Muslim nations, we'll entertain the idea accepting Muslims into our nation.
Who the fuck cares whether you "entertain the idea of accepting Muslims"?
You don't get a say, bigot. Muslims will continue come to this nation and make up an important part of American culture, whether you like it or not.
And nothing like saying that those who disagree with him don't get a say to show intolerance.
Well done.
Perhaps I should clarify.
You guys can "say" whatever ridiculous fear-mongering nonsense that you like - but angrily posting on message boards won't change reality.
