Oh no sir. That did not begin the attacks. That already happened, to me.
I did not ignore the bulk of the legislation. There is part of the legislation that applies directly to the topic of this thread. The entire piece of legislation is huge and not going to be discussed here. You are free to discuss it at your leisure somewhere else. Please stop trying to derail this thread or change the topic.
Yes part of the OP is original material. You accuse me too quickly. My claim is not false, the law is quite clear.

US constitution only applies to us citizens it does not apply to immigrants they have no protection under the constitution.If they did immigration laws would be unnecessary and handled by US courts.
Ultimately the oresident of the united states has the ability to block any class from entering the united states.Thus option has been used before it can be based on anything religion affiliation country origin doesn't mattrt.However this option wont be used especially since the president is pushing for immagratio. So arguing the legality of it is silly if another president takes office and decided to use thus option then it would be valid to discuss.Bottom line immagtation under current laws is decided by the president and as such its his responsibility.

If the extremists are such a small percentage it would seem like the vastly larger group of moderates could stop the extremists any time they wanted to. But they don't. I wonder why that is...
Why don't the the majority of responsible American gun owners ever stop these mass shooters from creating havoc?
Obviously, the bad apple spoils the bunch... right back at ya mate.
We try to, every time we have cause to. And sometimes we are successful.
That does nothing to advance the topic of this thread, however.
Not from me, I simply pointed out the glaring errors in your logic.
There is no legal precedent to support your borrowed position regarding 414 and in fact, legal precedent gives us the exact opposite. the 14th amendment guarantees equal protection under the law which means the 1st amendment can't be dissected or misappropriated to disenfranchise any particular group based on religious background.
Sure, part of it is but the rest is not then, correct? there are no citations. That violates T&C

Well, I personally think it does a great deal to "advance the topic of this thread".
300 million guns in the US, yet the "responsible" gun owners are powerless to prevent psychopaths from flipping out and cutting down innocent people in there prime, for no good reason.
Why are you not holding yourself to the same standard that you expect of people who practice the Islamic religion?
If it was religion as a whole you had the problem with, then I would fully agree... But your just hypocritically pointing your finger at Islam.
What about all the Catholics that preach against using protection during sex, claiming its a sin in over populated disease ridden African countries?
Or hardcore Zionists who claim to be genetically superior and more entitled than all other races?
Its all relative and technically goes against the act mentioned in the OP... So you can either make the claim that people of 'all' MS religions should be banned from entering the US. Or just admit your whole argument is based on a false premise.

The thread is about immigration. It has nothing to do with the people already here that you keep trying to bring in to the discussion. If you want to talk about nut cases shooting people in this country, please find the appropriate thread.

Back in the day we in the UK had years of terrorism from the IRA.
Did we ban ginger irish people from coming to the UK? nope.
Did we fear all irish ginger people..nope.
Did we look at ginger irish people thinking they could be a terrorist no.
So why do you do the same with Muslims?.
The percentage of fundie muslims who will hurt you is tiny the chances of a muslim terrorist hurting you is tiny.
You are much more likely to be attacked in the USA from a lone fundie christian so do you want to ban christians coming in also?.

You were the one who asked the question of why peaceful moderate Muslims can't/don't stop the tiny minority of fanatics who carry out acts of terrorism... I'm merely asking the same question, why don't you hold yourself to the same standard?
Unless you can answer that very simple question, anything else you say is just hot air and a waste of my time.
On the surface you can make statements as you did here. But there is more to it than that. There are numerous videos showing islamic people stating very clearly that the method is to invade and increase in numbers until they can overpower and consume any who oppose them.

Yeah, but the kids of the Muslims who immigrate to the western world, end up being far to concerned about the just released nike airs or newest iphone, to have the slightest interest in giving there lives for some 3rd world primitive cause.
Your fears are totally unfounded by reality... you still recognize reality, right?
I know its hard to comprehend when your overcome with irrational panic.
