I'm only gonna say this once, and I hope it sinks in: England is NOT America! And America is not England! Do you even understand that?

English Law is bound up pretty much in the writings of precedence contained within the walls of the Old Bailey, visible in that footage next to Big Ben. The British system has long proven a refuge for foreign displaced persons as well as governments, from Askenazi Jews all the way back to a century ago (culminating in the Balfour Declaration in 1914), to entire governments-in-exile, such as the Polish government during WWII. The fact that Islamic Jihadist extremists have sought refuge there is an indication of their own status as displaced persons - not governments in this case - alienated from their own respective middle eastern countries. Do you even wonder why? Do you even care?

The United States, on the other hand, has its own Constitution, which spells out very clearly the freedoms of all peoples of all religions without official restraint or censure, as well as laws protecting us from their respective abuses.

I don't know what the Brits will do to handle their obvious 'Muslim problem', but from everything I've ever learned of the Brits, you can rest assured they will be handled - with the same sense of justice and fairness they could ever find here.

I am getting sick and tired of the demonization of Islam in America! If you insist on living in ignorance, proferring upon all other fools who will listen to your damnable xenophobic nonsense, with its dramatic music specifically engineered to gin up the paranoia, do us all a favor, will you?

Keep it to yourself. We're all stocked up on crazy right now, since this whackjob Hassan cut loose with automatic pistols on his fellow soldiers.

We don't need anymore crazy today. You're not helping.

That's already happened, genius. When he was alive, the Ayatollah Khomeni called upon all Muslims to "kill Americans wherever you may find them"...So did Saddam Hussein, as President for life of Iraq...so did Osama bin Laden. I'm sure I'm forgetting a few, but you get the idea.

Muslims all over the world (and there are 1.5 billion of them) did NOT rise up in a bloody orgy of Christian murder, they DID NOT kill Americans all over the world in other countries - only the fanatics did these things, and never with the blessing of the leadership in Saudi Arabia. They stand against such violence, although they are (understandably, I think) very nervous about how Mulsims will be treated by westerners for the actions of a few.

Today, Khomeni and Saddam are both dead, Saddam Hussein by hanging, found guilty of Crimes Against Humanity by the World Court for gassing Kurdish civilians, and for other warcrimes. Osama bin Laden is still alive, but of little worry. Al Quaeda is cash-strapped, meaning only one thing: Lack of interest among the world's Muslim populations.

After Saddam's hanging, there was no outcry for Christian, American, western, or even Israeli blood, and indeed the Royal family of Saud pronounced the sentence just. There were no reprisals of any kind, worldwide.

Most Muslims are actually better citizens than some Christians - and who says America is a 'Christian nation' anyway? Predominantly Christian-oriented, perhaps, but personally I think we should get away from that.

I want to see America become a primarily secular nation - freedom of religion does not necessarily dictate that any one religion be dominant.

A secular America has nothing to fear from any religion, no matter how strident a religion it may be.
