    I find your admission that people should be on guard for Muslim terrorists a step in the right direction for seeing them for what they are.

    There's a difference between being on guard, and making mistakes along the way in an attempt of being on guard.

    That truly has to be one of the most retarded claims I have seen in awhile, but I think I owe it to you to break it down:
    They have the right to assemble, they have the right to speak, they do not have the right to injure others or destroy the property of others. That isn't a nuanced distinction, it's a broadly obvious line of demarcation between lawful, and lawless, behavior.

    Technology could be used in addition to travel restrictions. I wouldn't lose hope on the travel bans, it's early yet.

    You make Islamophobia sound like it's an irrational thing. It's not just terrorism that people are worried about, but Islamic culture in general which is antithetical to western values. You can't combine freedom of speech with a culture that gets triggered by cartoons, for example.

    ISIS is just the most prominent problem with Islam. Like I stated above, they go ape **** if people draw a cartoon, or say anything critical of Islam. When Mohammedans show that they have outgrown their barbaric customs and reactions to criticism, then we can reconsider.

    Nope.

    There very quote you cited proves otherwise. It is a blatant attempt to criminalize free speech. Try reading your own posts. develop a whole-of-government approach to reducing or eliminating systemic racism and religious discrimination including Islamophobia, in Canada,

    This clearly means using government to quell whatever is considered racism and islamophobia. Which are nothing more than highly ambiguous and flexible terms which means whatever a left winger does not like.

    Then you better complain about Canada's anti-semitic hate speech laws..
