You read that correctly. Immigration of those who practice Islam is, by definition of law, illegal in the United States of America.
The Immigration and Nationality Act, passed June 27, 1952, becoming public Law 414 established both the law and the intent of congress regarding immigration of aliens to the United States, and is still in effect today.

Cool now we can keep the Christians out as well seeing how their religion also says to convert everyone. Op don't quit your day job and try to become a lawyer because you will then starve.
If you had the slightest idea what you were talking about, I might be concerned. As it is...
The law is in regard to immigration. It has no bearing on US citizens.
And for the record, I was raised catholic but no longer belong to the church. Not once in my entire life did anyone associated with the church ever demand, or even request, that I try to convert anyone. Not once.
I would advise you not to give up your day job, but I really doubt you have one...

Just because you wish it to be doesn't make it true. The US constotution applies to US citizens. All rights are granted through immigration laws meaning they can be changed. So you fall under the french constitution if your not french? Don't be silly
So you fall under the french constitution if your not french?

This Public Law 414 garbage was a viral campaign that has been debunked already.
Simply put, the rumor maintained that Muslims as a group were ineligible for admission to the United States based upon a law that prohibited entry to any alien who "belongs to an organization seeking to overthrow the government of the United States by 'force, violence, or other unconstitutional means.'" The meme didn't directly reference the Islamic State (ISIS) as the organization in question, instead suggesting that Islam itself (particularly because of Sharia law and adherence to it by devout Muslims) was a prohibited group.
The meme's basic claim hinged on the tautological assertion that adherence to Islam alone constitutes participation in an "organization seeking to overthrow the government of the United States by 'force, violence, or other unconstitutional means.'" Most major religions involve basic, agreed-upon sets of tenets by which their faithful live, and no widely-accepted understanding of Islam encompasses a prohibition on following the laws of any country or advocates the overthrow of government.

True Islam can not assimilate to western society as it demands all society assimilate to Islam.
Chapter 109 of the Glorious Quran contradicts your assertion completely.
You are quoting outdated verse. See below...
Qur'an (8:39) - “And fight them until there is no more Fitnah (disbelief and polytheism: i.e. worshipping others besides Allah) and the religion (worship) will all be for Allah Alone [in the whole of the world ]. But if they cease (worshipping others besides Allah), then certainly, Allah is All-Seer of what they do.” Translation from the Noble Quran
Qur'an (9:29) - "Fight those who believe not in Allah nor the Last Day, nor hold that forbidden which hath been forbidden by Allah and His Messenger, nor acknowledge the religion of Truth, (even if they are) of the People of the Book, until they pay the Jizya with willing submission, and feel themselves subdued." Suras 9 and 5 are the last "revelations" that Muhammad narrated - hence abrogating what came before, including the oft-quoted verse 2:256 -"There is no compulsion in religion...".
Ok Verse 109 is "outdated" but Verse 8 & 9 are still applicable...
Have fun with your thread that isn't about learning about reality.

Three words nullifies your ignorant argument. Freedom of Religion this applies to everyone not just citizens. I would try to explain this at a level you can actually understand but my crayon app isn't working.
Maybe because this thread is predicated upon the blanket punishment of an entire group of people based on their religion? The premise of this thread, like every other thread on ATS seems to be these days, is "Muslims are criminals." This is no different than saying "Christians are criminals." The fact that Islamophobes can't see that speaks volumes.

Why are you so afraid?.
Why do you guys always assume its fear and/or hate? Why has discussion of prudent safety for all become hate speech and bigotry?

I don't wish to derail the subject of this thread, but it is my understanding that the Quran is not arranged into a chronological order like the Bible is. Just because some Quranic text comes before or after other text doesn't indicate the original order as it came from Mohammad. I don't have a horse in this race, but you would need some in depth study to determine which of these verses came first (if that even matters). Perhaps, as many Islamic apologists would point out, the context of these verses need consideration in order to determine what is truly mean by them. Then it would have to be proven that these verses only apply to a given situation and no others.
