I agree with this in principle, but for Europe especially it must be taken in context of mass uncontrolled immigration and the fact that as few as 0.1% of Islamists (though that number is probably far higher) shooting people and blowing things up can really destroy their host society posthaste.

Undoubtedly the vast majority of Muslims are good people. Who want nothing to do with terrorism. Who love their kids and want a peaceful life.

But what does that matter? Who cares about them? They are irrelevant to the discussion.

The issue is what happens when you allow hundreds of thousands or millions of people to stream into your country (already straining to the breaking point social services) and a few thousand of them are violent Islamist jihadis and a few hundred thousand more support these people financially and morally.

You got problems then. Because the reality is that it takes very few people going essentially violently jihad-crazy to essentially incapacitate a whole society (not to mention just how many more of even the non-fundamentalists truly hate women and want very much to oppress them).

Look, I wish everything could be peach ice cream and fucking unicorns, but life just isn’t that way. Wishing it were doesn’t make it so. Actually, that makes it even less likely.

Again, understand that if you allow unrestricted mass immigration into your country from Islamist-infested regions, this will result.

That some or even most Muslims kiss butterflies or help old ladies cross the street means precisely nothing and is completely irrelevant to the discussion and misses the point entirely.

I remember using Terraserver (over dial-up, no less) in 1998 It was the coolest thing I’d ever seen a computer do. It was the first computing application I’d seen that gave a human a completely new capability that was not present in any way prior to computing.*

Funny how Microsoft had all this great tech and novel ideas and really never did anything with any of it.

*Computers made many things faster prior to this in my life, but did not give me a completely new superpower. Terrasserver did.

The attacks in Paris show both the real effects of allowing a bunch of anti-Enlightenment radical Islamists into your country and the folly of bombing brown people into freedom.

I refuse to coddle moronic liberals or idiotic conservatives. Both sides are wrong.

The best move is to transition to renewable energy so that regions invested in Islam can live their 12th-century lifestyle in peace.

If you accept large numbers of Islamists into your country uncritically, this is going to happen. Simple as that.
