Since you called me out, YES, I think Trump would call for the beheading of Islamic terrorists caught on U.S. soil.

Beheading is not a style of execution that we would use, but I would certainly go for the death penalty.

What is DUMB is trying to make a point about immigration by comparing stopping immigration from a country and blocking immigration based on religion. Kinda goes against one of the foundational reasons for colonists coming here.

Nobody said Iran was a religion and it was compared to nothing. Just a statement of fact.. You're just ranting again. Definitely a dumb assumption on your part.

Lets talk about this for a minute.
How many people say America is a Christian nation ? Yes, about 70% claim they are; but some are not
How many people say that the top 1% don't care about the "bottom of the totem pole" workers - sure some actually feel that way but many do not.
How many try to be PC and only use the term "Native American" Sure some want to be refered to that way, but others prefer to be called Indians.
How many believe that TV is a total wasteland - Of course there are many bad TV programs - a lot is a waste of time - but there are good programs - there are Chrisitan programs which have brought people to Christ.

bottom line - We all often use phrases - that appears to be 100% - but we realize that in a literal sense it is not absolutely true. Lets face it - we all say the Sun rise - when literally it does not.

But when a Muslim is referred as an ethnic group - we get the ideal.

And IN THE LIGHT - do you really believe that Trump would call for the beheading of Muslims?
Simple yes or no will do.


Will I vote for Trump - if he is the Republican nominee - YES!


However, since I am not a Republican - I will NOT be able to vote in the Empire State R- Primary.

Just a shame. But again , a lot of you voted for a man who has no problem with everyone knowing he rejects Christ. Voting for Trump won't be much of a slide.

It's at the point where I can't take people seriously who entertain him becoming President.

Lol:

Republicans Denounce Trump But Opposition Stops There

"Republican Party leaders have been quick to denounce Donald Trump's idea to ban all Muslims from coming into the U.S., but while they condemn his latest bluster, their protestations stop short of steps to try to ensure Trump is not the Republican nominee.

The fear of angering his loyal supporters or risking a general election divide of the GOP has Republicans delicately trying to mitigate the backlash of his controversial plans without driving his supporters closer to Trump and further away from the party brand....."

Why so much Jewish fear and loathing of Donald Trump?

"There has been extraordinary, almost unhinged anxiety among some Jews about Donald Trump’s campaign for the GOP Presidential nomination. It has no solid basis, but unfortunately it does speak to their profound neurosis and alienation from the historic American nation.

It’s worth asking how, from the general Jewish point of view, Trump departs from the ideal presidential candidate. This ideal candidate is (1) predictably and fanatically pro-Israel; (2) predictably liberal/Left on social issues, particularly anything related to immigration and multiculturalism; and (3) in need of big campaign money contingent on satisfying (1) and (2). Jeb Bush, who was the early favorite of Sheldon Adelson and theRepublican Jewish Coalition, filled the bill quite well. But Bush now seems to be fading, with Adelson leaning toward Marco Rubio—he of the Gang of Eight Amnesty/Immigration Surge bill and saying all the right things about Israel and the Middle East.

Trump could hardly be more acceptable on Israel, given his statement that “We love Israel. We will fight for Israel 100 percent, 1,000 percent. It will be there forever.” [When it comes to Jewish ties, no GOP candidate trumps Trump, by Uri Heilman, Times of Israel, August 8, 2015] On the other hand, he does not come across as an ideal neoconservative candidate, having stated that he would not have invaded Iraq (strongly promoted by Israel, the neocons, and the Israel Lobby), opposes using US force for “nation-building,” another favorite neocon policy and one of the rationales for the Iraq invasion, and for his recent statements on Syria—that Putin’s support for Assad makes more sense than the US policy (“we don’t even know who we’re backing”)[Trump on Putin Controlling Syria: ‘OK, Fine,’ Him Fighting ISIS ‘Wonderful Thing,’ ‘Very Little Downside’, Breitbart.com, September 29, 2015

Additionally, of course, Trump has long-term business connections with Jews, Jews have highly visible positions in his campaign, his daughter has converted to Judaism and his grandchildren are being raised Jewish.

Nevertheless, despite all that, there have been many instances of well-connected, high-profile Jews expressing extreme anxiety about Trump. It seems to me that the common denominator here is nothing less than that they see Trump as undermining the elite consensus on immigration...."

Just a friendly reminder that there are other political parties in the US than Republican or Democrat.

But anyway, if I'm not mistaken, it was NOT shut down. They just limited the number of folks who could come in based upon the number of folks who were already here from a region.
Could you please document that? I believe you ARE mistaken.

Trump's campaign released a statement today saying Trump would be "the healthiest individual ever elected should he win the race for the nation’s highest office."

http://www.bloomberg.com/politics/a...be-healthiest-president-don-t-ask-for-details

Because he says so.
