ok cool, I really didn't knowI was kidding . .about you having white privilege
Guessing people take a look at muslim majority countries, and don't want that brought here fucking with what makes the west a great place to live.It's odd that people want to ban mosques and severely curtail the right to practice certain religions in the west. It basically amounts to 'look at these shitholes, let's copy what they are doing'.
It's never made much sense to me.

That's the unfortunate thing. Or rather unfortunate that Islam is attractive to the lowest peoples.Which includes freedom of religion.

Not really. When you let shit into your house, you get a shitty house, much like muslim majority countries. I'd much rather keep a nice house, principles be damned.I'd say it's a pillar if a free society and a far superior system to a religiously oppressive one.
I just don't see the logic in copying the policies of shitty places in the hope it will make nice places better. That seems backwards.

Muslims are better off in the USA than in any Muslim country.
This fact drives leftists crazy. ROFL
If you say so. I like living in a free society. Doesn't seem shitty to me.
Keep thinking that and your "tolerance" will see that you kneel before the people you fetishize.
This country needs conservatism to preserve and protect what is good about it. Period. We can exist without leftists, but without us the left eats itself and simultaneosly gets invaded and toppled thanks to itself.
You seem to be hostile to the principle of freedom of religion. Ironically a communist ideal you seem to have adopted, despite your rambling about leftists.
Edit - ironically you version of conservativism advocates a radical depature from your constitution and the principles your country was founded upon. Delicious irony.
I think I read same things about Russian Muslim regions of North Caucasus (like, if you grow your beard, you may get police attention for that). One mma fighter from Russia (from North Ossetia if I'm not wrong, lives and trains in US) said in interview that USA is much better for Muslims than Russia. In US you can grow a beard, preach etc and no one throws you in jail for that.Its not even just the minority sects and beliefs that get persecuted nor is it only Salafists and Islamists doing the persecution. In some countries even if you subscribe to the majority beliefs you might be targeted for being too religious. Growing a beard or attending mosque too often could get you targeted in some of the secular dictatorships like Baathist Iraq and Syria, Egypt, and Turkey to name a few.
You're far more free to be a devoutly religious Muslim in the US than in many of those countries where the mere fact that you're above average in religiosity can put you on the state's radar.
