Like it or not, Islam is the second largest (in population) religion on the planet. I happen to completely despise Islam and all it stands for and, yes, I see the radical, violent elements of it as my enemy. However, it IS a religion and practice of it is protected by our First Amendment.
You see, unlike elements of both the Left and Right, which want to trash the parts of our Constitution that don't suit their, albeit, different purposes, I'm a true Constitutional conservative. I believe in preserving, protecting, and defending 100% of the Constitution.
There are many lawful ways to deal with the Islamist threat in our country without trashing the First Amendment. All your pretense that Islam is not a religion does neither you nor the conservative movement credit.
However, it IS a religion and practice of it is protected by our First Amendment.
And that's what needs to change for Islam. as it's specifically designed to install a violent and oppressive government to overthrow that very document which you say protects it right now ... :-)
So what would the lawful ways include? I used to agree with you but now I would exclude Muslims from joining the military, the FBI, the CIA and perhaps other agencies/etc as well. They cover, aid and abet for their terrorist buddies.
Right, so according to you, all religions, even if they include murder and human sacrifice should be allowed to flourish unfettered by government interference in the US.
There are lawyers who say you are wrong. Once the purpose becomes political violence, it is no longer freedom of religion.
