In reply to the discussion: Obama: Why I won't say 'Islamic terrorism' [View all]True Dough
(17,841 posts)9. Man, I like this place more and more every day
I realize there's not an overwhelming response here so far but on a couple of boards that I frequented in the past there would be a few alt-right types frothing at the mouth about how all things Islam are inherently dangerous ("religion of peace" was their never-ending mantra) and how allowing any refugees to come to the U.S. would be a disaster, similar to how Trump always tosses around "disaster."
Have a great weekend, all!
