Fox News Talk Show Host: Ban Muslims from the US

This is from right wing fringe guy, but if this continue it will happen. During the WWII Japaneses were put in camps.

Tucker Carlson: I Have ‘A Lot’ Of Muslim Friends, But It’s Time To Ban Them In The U.S. | Crooks and Liars

Fox News host Tucker Carlson asserted over the weekend that it might be time to close the border to Muslims, even though “a lot” of his friends practiced the religion.

As thousands gathered in France on Sunday to support the magazine Charlie Hebdo after it was attacked by terrorists last week, Carlson wondered if the rally would make a difference.

“What exactly does it mean?” Carlson asked. “What exactly going forward will this accomplish?”

“This is an Islamic problem we’re facing. It’s become rigid, it’s become doctrinaire, fundamentalist, and the world is suffering as result,” the Fox News host continued. “At some point, the Obama administration is going to step up – or some subsequent administration – and call the problem what it is, which is a religious problem.”

“Not all Muslims, of course. Most are peaceful and decent people. We all know a lot of them. But there is a species of the religion that has gone completely off the rails, and until you say that out loud, it’s kind of hard to address it.”

Moments later, Carlson argued that France was having a problem was terrorism “because it has the largest Muslim population in Europe as a result of its immigration policies.”

“Is it time to re-think immigration policies in Europe and, by the way, also here in North America, to pay attention to the country of origin?” Carlson opined. “Is it a good idea to let a lot of people from countries where violent Islamism is rife come to this country? What do we get out of it?”

^ Very extreme and premature response. However, there will be more and more demands from the western world for these kinds of measures if “Islamic” terrorism does not abate.

Re: Fox News Talk Show Host: Ban Muslims from the US

It’s Fox News. What did you expect?

Re: Fox News Talk Show Host: Ban Muslims from the US

I am surprised that it wasn’t Bill Maher.

Re: Fox News Talk Show Host: Ban Muslims from the US

As much as he bashes Islam and other religions, I doubt he would ever propose that.

Re: Fox News Talk Show Host: Ban Muslims from the US

BBC News - Apology for ‘Muslim Birmingham’ Fox News claim

Re: Fox News Talk Show Host: Ban Muslims from the US

Does anyone really watch these pro.grammes?

Re: Fox News Talk Show Host: Ban Muslims from the US

Let’s not start apologising for mindless fascism. This ductile apologia is no different from terrorists or their apologists who want the innocent majority to pay the heaviest price for insane actions of few. Your post reminds me of fanatics who simply shrug their shoulders and say 'well if West doesn’t stop carpet bombing our countries, expect few more London buses being blown off. Enough of this toxic attitude, right?

Many people don’t want to acknowledge and understand this but Muslims themselves are the biggest victims of prolonged terrorism as well as growing Islamophobia (which seems to be attracting apologists at an alarming rate). But if the big, mighty all tolerant, freedom and human rights loving West (especially all saintly USA) want expel, prosecute and ban innocent Muslims, then fine. Go ahead and do that, but before they do that, they need to stop hating the Nazis and painting them as bad guys.

Re: Fox News Talk Show Host: Ban Muslims from the US

This is not the first time when HOAX.. i mean FOX news has claimed this. They are sick and one propagandist media owned by extreme conservatives. Wut else one can expect from them

Re: Fox News Talk Show Host: Ban Muslims from the US

Yet it is the most popularly watched ‘news channel’ in the USA, or my information is 2-3 years old and incorrect?

Re: Fox News Talk Show Host: Ban Muslims from the US

Nicely put, Jolie. Although appears otherwise, this guy is on the same side of the spectrum as the terrorists. They breed on fear.

Re: Fox News Talk Show Host: Ban Muslims from the US

Quite true. It is entertainment. We watch it too. :stuck_out_tongue:

Re: Fox News Talk Show Host: Ban Muslims from the US

Hold on a bit and it might come out considering the way he is going. In fact, fox has been chummy friends with him for some time when it comes to islam. Lets not forget that he pals around with people like Ann Coulter who said that ‘we should invade their countries, kill their leaders and convert them to christianity’.

I imagine two kinds of people watch Faux news. Old men who are living in 1960s and they are looking forward to US sending a man to the moon. And people like miss teen usa from sc who thinks people can’t locate US on the map becuse they don’t own a map… like such as…

Re: Fox News Talk Show Host: Ban Muslims from the US

Who the f listens to Ann Coulter?! Many times I thought Bill Maher was actually making fun of her on his talkshow. You might be right though, I have noticed his growing dislike for muslims. He may not be too far behind Fox news.

Re: Fox News Talk Show Host: Ban Muslims from the US

There is a third kind, who watch it for the comedy.

Re: Fox News Talk Show Host: Ban Muslims from the US

Yes, on believing in christianity and being a republican?, but he has said it many times that people like her and hirsi ali get what islam is really about. Now that is another issue that hirsi was deported from netherlands because they couldn’t verify her horrible family, horrible islamism story. But all is well as she was rescued by american conservatives.

Heck, I think Salman Rushdie comes out as an intellectual and actually was on the bit that I watched for this past Friday with Carly Fiorina. That is to say something that he wrote that garbage book satanic verses that probably got more publicity due to ayatollah death threat than anything else.

Re: Fox News Talk Show Host: Ban Muslims from the US

That is the only reason that I survived Glen Beck one time for 10 minutes.

To think a bit, I think it was probably Jon Stewart parody that makes Glen Beck bearable to me now. If you go in cold turkey, then you want to lobotomize your frontal lobe among other things…

Re: Fox News Talk Show Host: Ban Muslims from the US

Anytime they need to bash Islam, they immediately dial Hirsi Ali and Salman Rushdie. They must be on their speed dial or something. I don’t listen to Hirsi Ali anymore. It seems like she gets paid a lot to suck up to republicans. I didn’t know she got deported. That’s news to me! I read her story a long time ago and I still feel bad for her. However, she goes and talks about Islam as if her experience applies to every Muslim woman, which is not true but people believe that. They WANT to believe it.

Re: Fox News Talk Show Host: Ban Muslims from the US

Such responses give credence to the view that such threats are fabricated by the US to justify interventions internationally, just as they did during cold war with commie threats.
