First off, not all muslims are radical, except in the regard that they, oh so radically, believe something slightly different than the popular Christian belief.

Secondly, as you seem to have pointed at, Dalek, it's your own damn faults! Not because you let them in, each one of them has their own story, and each one of them has a reason to come - some good, some bad, an extremely small percentage hurtful. But, rather, it's your fault because you are not integrating them in a beneficial way! You're setting them further and further apart from yourselves, causing much increased hatred as a result. The US doesn't act much more beneficially, in that we expect them to be exactly like us in every regard, and, in fact, often get angry when they don't. Canada, on the other hand, accepts all different cultures and actually encourages them to share it! There's nothing beneficial about a static culture - it must be dynamic! That's, actually, the whole point of open source software (sorry, had to plug it)!

True on all counts with the exception of Islam at this point in history. Not that all Muslims are radical but the radical elements have risen to the top of their particular food chain. Of course most are, like most humans, the go along get along sort. However, if we look at the upper tiers we discover either rabid frothing as they demand recognition of their religion as law OR more common, acquiescent silence to the issue of mad bombers and Jihad Joes. Of course the fact that the current flow of Islamic thought makes it impossible for non Muslims to live among them in peace, oh well, let the games play out.

Of course cowardly Europe is to blame as much as we in the U.S. are for refusing to secure our borders in time of war and want as well as deciding that those south of the border are inherently too inferior to follow the law or learn English. How else can one explain treating invaders in the way we do? How else can you explain Govt. documents in Spanish INCLUDING BALLOTS!

Tolerance (Without limit) is the last virtue of a dying civilization.

...Sorry, I had to. But at least now I know it's out of my system. And knowing is half the battle.

I'll second that. It really bugs me that so many damn things are in Spanish these days. Best T-shirt I ever saw: "Welcome to America. Now SPEAK ENGLISH!"

What gets me is these people for the most part don't even bother to learn it.

I at least took four years of french before taking a trip to Paris and the country side.
