Stop repeating propaganda. There is nothing, literally nothing in the Quranic rules on polygamy that casts polygamy as an act of mercy to widows, or encourages marriage to second wives who are widows.

The poster to whom you are replying didn't even mention the Quran. But, you really showed that straw man you are debating.

I'm sure the Irish, Belgians and Fomanians appreciate the sentiment. I take it you've never been to these places and don't know squat about any of them?

Well, I've never been to "Fomania."

100% of rapes in Norway in past five years have been committed by foreigners. Is this what we are making space for in our lives? No thank you. You can't say people are being paranoid or making it up. The secret is out!

FALSE
Most committed in Norway are committed by Norwegian citizens and three quarters are European citizens. The police study states it on page 52.

I believe it but I wouldn't have if I hadn't heard what the mayor of Cologne had said after the attacks and also if I hadn't heard about Sweden and Germany covering up the sexual attacks. Apparently there were numerous attacks over the Summer in Sweden and they kept it quiet. Many of the Middle Eastern countries are anti-women and have laws based on their religion that women must wear hijab, must sit behind a curtain at funerals, can't drive, etc... Separate AND unequal. When it comes to Western women - forget it - they are deemed as "loose" and therefore they seem to think it is okay to rape and sexually assault them. The Persians that came 30 years ago assimilated quickly and effortlessly and I have many friends that are Persian and they left this culture purposely because they opposed it. I fear we won't be able to assimilate the migrants and refugees though.

Saudi Arabia would be good.

They wouldn't touch them with a 10,000 foot pole.

Of course they would, and they have. Depending upon how you're counting, they've accepted from thousands to several million refugees.

They should go to a country with a backbone - like Russia or Japan. Do you honestly think that Russians or Japanese will put up with this crap the way German ninnies and Swedish bed wetters do?

Some of you guys are so ignorant it is incredible.

That's not the most trustworthy source, but even so it describes something much different than the earlier allegations. That's not to dismiss what it describes which sounds pretty horrible if it did indeed happen, but it's just not what was previously alleged.

Do conservatives automatically dismiss anything from the New York Times, Huffington Post, Daily Beast, etc. the same way liberals automatically dismiss news reports from certain right-leaning websites...regardless of what the actual truth is?
