Liberty Island Mini-Mall
As long as we're going to abandon one of our national core values we could go ahead and sell the Statue of Liberty for scrap. We could get, maybe $225k for all that copper and another $60K for the steel superstructure. Then we could turn Liberty Island into a mini-mall kinda thing. I'm sure we could get a Starbucks, a McDonald's, a Subway maybe even a Baskin-Robbins.

Re: Liberty Island Mini-Mall
Which of your core values says that you cannot protect your ideology or close your borders to those who would undermine it?
The same one that DOES NOT say that all Muslims are terrorists until proven otherwise.

Re: Liberty Island Mini-Mall
The issue is not so much terrorism. It is preventing those who are bringing an incompatible ideology, Sharia, into the country and who will try to undermine ours.
Give a listen to the last link I gave.
Why would I want to listen to another religious nut case spouting incompatible anti-American ideology, Christian bigotry, without regard for what it means to have an all-inclusive First Amendment in this country and who is still trying to undermine ours.

Re: Benefits of Islam
Apologies to all; individual apologies are available upon application (shouts out to Coyote and AZPaul3...).
???
I'm sure if you have gotten crosswise with me I more than deserved it. No apologies requested or necessary.
Like many old-timers, I sometimes find myself watching younger folks stubbing their toes with grim satisfaction...
So it's not the med adjustment after all. You're just crotchety.

Subtle Benefits
The niqab gets a bad rap but is actually quite versatile.
