[quote=jsteele][quote=Anonymous][quote=jsteele][quote=Anonymous]Perhaps when Jeff, and/or his wife and kids are victims of Muslim Terrorism, his tune will change.  It is one thing to be compassionate and care about human rights, it is another to be blindly ignorant of the fact that many of the Muslim refugees and Muslims in general hate America and want to destroy us.  They even hate liberals and would blow your Muslim loving backside up in a heartbeat if they had the chance.[/quote]

Wow, such bigotry. What evidence do you have that many of the Muslim refugees hate America? Really all of you supporting bans on Muslims are cut from the same cloth. You are unable to see Muslims as individuals. To you, each and every one of them is a potential -- if not actual -- terrorist. You literally can't perceive a Muslim being anything other than a terrorist.

I've never understood why allegedly loving someone is supposed to be an insult. Do you take pride in hating instead? Not many years ago you probably would have called me a "n-word" lover.

OMG. Because at least one of us has suggested a compromise - with humanitarian aid delievered to refugees - until we can vet them more reliably, now we're accused of calling you a n------- lover? And remember.... we're talking about a TEMPORARY ban from countries where terrorism is rampant, not a ban on all Muslims. And you're talking about hate? Are you unable to see the hatred and disgust you're demonstrating for someone who doesn't agree with your approach to the Syrian refugee situation but still demonstrates support for their plight through a different - and temporary - solution?

Unless you have called me a "Muslim lover" then you probably would have also called me an "n-word lover'. I understand your need to respond to every post whether it was directed to you or not -- frequently multiple times -- but at least try to follow the conversation.

Temporary prejudice is no better than permanent prejudice. If there is a refugee from a country in which terrorism is rampant and that refugee can be vetted reliably, why would you block him? Based on what you have said, you would block him because of his religion. Yet, you deny having religious prejudice. It is true that we can't vet every potential refugee reliably. But that does not mean that we can't vet any of them reliably. In the case of Syrian refugees, those coming to the US have been in camps for years. What does the existence of terrorism or lack thereof in Syria have to do with them?

I congratulate you on finding a way to put pretty wrapping paper on your religious bias. But, we only have to tear that paper away to see what is underneath.
