    The problem, to me, is that you have identified and fixated on a single, and only, incident where is can be blamed on IS so called followers, and yet seem to ignore the numerous shootings and bombings that have occurred and were committed by natural borne none Muslim "terrorists":dunno::coffee:

      He was targeting Muslim Syrians in response to Obamas edict allowing 10000 Syrians immediate entrance into the US when he made the statement. And his exact words were "until we can figure out what the hell is going on". The next day was when he said the words"temporary ban on refugees".

      I watched it live on TV too (I have relatives in Brooklyn and there were no phone lines to contact them on) and, afterwards, I travelled out and visited my relations and Ground Zero and laid flowers for the young man from my home town who happened to be in the building. You are quite right it was horrific.

        Deviating from the OP, but I'm not really sure that vetting immigrants, moslem or otherwise is the problem, here in the UK at least, its often the ones that are here already that turn terrorist.

        That over used word, "Radicalised", which basically means someone who isn't getting things their own way and are gullible enough to join.

        Of course its all our faults, the local population, for not accepting them and making them feel like outcasts.:scratch::lunapic 130165696578242 5:

        Its time we stopped blaming ourselves, and told them to integrate or or get out, and the more that get out, the better it will be.

          Well, you must be of a saintly nature, "M", because most of the Human race's personalities.views/opinions/fears are formed by the circumstances we experience and live in, the people we meet, the influence of other people and the actions we see them carrying out, during our Life:heehee:

            What is your solution Chuck? Should we hate everyone just in case? If you needed emergency medical treatment and a tan skinned bearded doctor arrived to help you, would you send him away just in case he was a Muslim and wanted to blow you up? What if you knew someone that has genuine reason to fear for their life, exhausted after fleeing on foot, the arrive in unfamiliar land, miles from all they know. Would you send them back to be beaten and raped, just in case they might have walked all that way to blow you up?

            I thank you Chuck. I did have mixed feelings but you've convinced me that there's a good reason why some people are suspicious and distrustful of us. I think I now have a greater understanding of the intricacies ofthe situation, and why the leftist do gooders I criticised earlier have felt pushed to go to such great lengths to demonstrate that not all of us hate without reason.

              Errr, not exactly, you were referring to individuals rather than different races, nations, etc, so you were being "singular" rather than "plural":dunno::heehee:

                    Might have :whistle:

                    However, my response was to your comment "The Human Race ...... " (sweeping statement) ... and as I am a member of it, I felt I could answer for myself.
                    In your "saintly" post, you referred to "most of the Human Race". The only thing not mentioned was ... instinct ;)

                    I don't think that is the impression that the outside World got:dunno: If Mr Trump is the best that the "GOP" can offer as a future President then they're in trouble.
                    He seems to deliver speeches with a "look at me, I'm here" approach. For some reason he reminds me of Mussolini who pulled all sorts of pompous expressions and stances when making a speech, have a look at some to the WWII tapes of him when standing on a balcony after a speech, he could be Mr Trump's Dad!!

                        As I said before, I am not a Trump fan. Having said that your impressions should be taken from fact not some media pundit or talking head who have there own agenda and are liberal to the core
