As evidenced by immigration and refugee bans?

1. In Europe? I'd say, at the moment, "Europe" should be defined in Webster's as "no good deed goes unpunished".

2. Have any bans withstood court challenge in the US thus far? Are any documented Muslim immigrants at risk of being expelled or deported? You seem to be equating "not doing more" with outright hostility.

We have been tolerant of people of the Muslim faith , many of whom have been silent or inactive in the face of horrendous crimes committed by radicals in their midst. They need to be more active in helping stop the atrocities.

what a shock..the whole family were ISSIS followers..
Manchester bomber Salman Abedi apparently wasn't the only member of his family to harbor extremist views as Libyan officials arrested the suicide bomber's father and two brothers, and uncovered what investigators called a plot for a new attack.

Hashim Abedi, who was born in 1997, was arrested in Tripoli on Wednesday evening by the Libyan counter-terrorism force Rada on suspicion of links to the Islamic State, and was planning a new attack on the Libyan capital, a government spokesman told Reuters on Wednesday.

My thoughts and prayers to the victims of Manchester and their families. Anyone on this board ever wonder about something like this taking place at HPSS?
I did think of HPSS during this news.. in the area of how petty I thought it was to have such a stringent bag and security policy.

I think these bastards will find a way no matter what we do.. and still.. I guess I can live with losing a little bit of freedom if it might catch one of these guys before they act

I always felt that way about my interest free loan on the overpayment of my taxes (which results in the eventual refund) throughout the year.

If just one penny of one dollar of said loan helped pay for the bullet used on 5/22/2011...I'm cool.

it already happen twice in the US, in Florida and CA.

No reason to think it couldn't happen anywhere else.

Just think about that next time someone complains about too much security at games and events.

The problem is much of the excess security is focused on people walking past the dumpsters with a beer in their hand and not blocking aisles in the lots. If the emphasis was on safety and security, I doubt there would be a complaint.
