Wow... what a racist (religionist), bigoted rant based in nothing but fear of scary brown people.
Some quotes from the longer article:
Quote:
I therefore will propose to the Congress tomorrow the following measures, which shall be called the American Freedom from Islam Act. - With the exception of immediate family members of U.S. citizens, diplomatic personnel, and temporary visitors for business and other legitimate purposes, all entry into the United States of foreign persons known or determined to be followers of the religion of Islam, whatever their nationality or country of residence, shall cease.

Quote:

The United States shall encourage the voluntary departure of Muslim naturalized citizens and their native-born descendants by offering all Muslim person over the age of eighteen $50,000 each in a one-time fee to give up any claim of U.S. residency or citizenship, to return to their native land, and never to seek to return. The federal government will assure that departing Muslims will receive a fair market price for their real property, investments, and other property that they must sell prior to leaving the United States.

For these reasons further steps are needed, aimed not just at stopping and reversing the growth of jihad support in America, but at stopping and reversing the growth of sharia in America. And to reverse the growth of sharia in America means to reverse the growth of Islam in America, through the forcible or voluntary departure of sharia-believing Muslims.
Therefore I shall propose these additional measures: - Any legal resident alien who advocates or adheres to, or who on investigation is reasonably suspected of adhering to, the sharia law shall be deprived of his resident status and removed from the United States;
- No resident alien who advocates or adheres to, or who on investigation is reasonably suspected of adhering to, the sharia law, will be naturalized as a U.S. citizen. In order to be naturalized, Muslims will be required to state under oath that they totally reject the Islamic doctrine of sharia and have no association with pro-sharia activities.
- Any naturalized citizen who violates this oath shall lose his citizenship and be removed from the United States.
- Any mosque or Islamic center in the United States that promotes or seeks to spread the sharia law shall be closed.

But wait, it gets better:
Quote:
But now we need to consider a further problem. The measures enumerated so far will inevitably be attacked as in violation of the First Amendment to the United States Constitution, which states that Congress shall make no law prohibiting the free exercise of religion. Therefore, in order for the measures that I've proposed to stand and not be overturned, we must have a further law stating that the First Amendment does not apply to Islam, does not protect the free exercise of the religion of Islam, because Islam is not only a religion, it is a political movement aimed at establishing tyrannical power over non-Muslims, and specifically aimed at overturning our Constitution, laws, and liberties. However, even such a radical law would not get us out of the woods, because it also could be overturned as in violation of the First Amendment. Therefore, in order for the measures I have proposed to be truly secure and not threatened by constitutional challenge, we must go to the highest level of our political system. We must pass a Constitutional amendment that prohibits the practice of Islam in the United States. Through such an amendment we will be saying that Islam is incompatible with our existence as a society. We will be making a fundamental statement about the kind of society America is. |
Apparently, according to the writer, America is (or should be) a society that bans entire religions from existence within its borders, based upon irrational fear of terrorism.
Oh, but wait, the writer later clarifies this to make this speech even less worthy of serious debate:
Quote:
|
When we first became aware of the Islam problem, the focus of course was on terrorism. Then after a while we realized that even if there were no terrorism, there would still be jihad, covering all kinds of aggressive Islamic actions short of terrorism. But three or more years ago, I and others began saying that even if there were no jihad, Islam could still take over via the peaceful spread of sharia. |
So, the writer is advocating that America
should outlaw the peaceful spread of particular ideas, merely because he does not like them.
I see no point in mincing words here, so I'll cut right to it:
I am disgusted that such a human being as this writer gets to call himself an "American" and a representative of my people merely because he fell out of his mother onto American soil. This man has no concept whatsoever of what being an American means. His writing is an affront to the very heart of what makes my nation great - that ideas are to be heard and debated, that by the process of hearing and debating ideas, the best ideas will rise to the top and make us greater as a whole.
