Islam and the United States don’t mix well; don’t let in Muslim immigrants
When the Supreme Court shot down President Obama's executive order on immigration, it was a step in the right direction for controlling our borders (on all sides). Then President Obama had a news conference to explain his view on immigration and said the following.
“When a person is willing to hug and honor the American flag, then the American way is to welcome them into our country.”
However, he failed to add that they must make a 100 percent effort to become legal. If they do not, they should go back to their place of origin. If you are undocumented and cannot provide evidence as to your love and honor to the flag and true belief in what America stands for, then you must go back to your place of origin.
No one should be allowed in this country if they follow a religion that directs them to hate and kill infidels. No one should be allowed in this country if they are not willing to serve in our military and fight for this nation. No one should be allowed in this country if they treat women as slaves and dictate no freedoms for their children.
Any religion that believes in Allah then cannot believe in our one true God. This person, or these people, need to go to a place or country where that is condoned, and that is not here.
Immigration stops at this point of conflict. You either love this country and its people and ideals, or you leave.
You are not allowed to profess you religion and beliefs on our principles; these represent opposites and conflict.
