Hey, let's keep immigration WIDE OPEN, especially Mooooslim immigration!
We must prove we are not RACISTS by keeping the borders wide open and not enforcing immigration laws AND by INCREASIN LEGAL immigration. In fact, it's better we die than to be accused of being a RACIST! Or even a patriotic NATIONALIST!

Duh.

Getting arrested is a fairly good deal for terrorists from third world cesspools: a cot and three good hots a day.
Lower the quality of the meals to pork and raw potatoes, and maybe they'll think twice about arranging car bombs.

Seriously, the arrested get not only room & board, but medical (it looks v. bad in the papers if they die in custody) and dental care. They are safer on the inside than we are outside.

Why would a punk from a third world nightmare not want to become a terrorist in America?

Shahzad became a naturalized citizen of the US a year ago? Who makes those decisions?

Take a look who the president is.......

Look into his background and you see a life long assocation with moooslim, communists, anarchists, etc.

At least this time the press has been honest, identifying the perpetrator as a "Pakistani native" rather than a "New York Man." I get so sick of headlines like "Massachusetts Man Indicted in Terror Plot" and thinking, "gee, were Sully and Fitz going to blow up Yankee Stadium 'cause the Bosox are 5 games back?" Then you read the article to find the Massachusetts man was named Muhammad Ahmed Abdul al-Hallal Jihadi or something like that. In such a case, calling him a Massachusetts man is a poor description, even if he was holed up in Brookline while waiting for his fertilizer to be delivered.

He's was identified as a "Connecticut man" in some papers--sorry.

JohnD| 5.4.10 @ 6:32PM

Damn, I thought maybe the press was coming around to telling the truth. At least some identified him as a Pakistani.

He's a registered Democrat, too; probably had an Obama bumper sticker on the back of his SUV. (Credit to Rush).

There has to be a PC term in there somewhere.

Peace challenged?
Allah Inclined?
Terror Oriented?
Virgin Motivated?

Mayor Bloomberg won a third term as Mayor of NYC at least partly because of his anti-terrorism policies. He has lost this reputation totally now in this case and on his accepting the bringing of KSM trial to NYC except for the costs. Morally Bloomber g has made a final decision now--not his final final decision mind you. He is now a Democrat. Not declared but by insinutation. But waite when the tables are turned he will morph into a RINO mode. With guys like this we are not safe !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
