"The Supreme Court announced Friday it will take up the case against the latest version of President Trump's travel ban, which bars entry in to the United States for residents of six majority-Muslim countries.

The court will hear arguments in April and is expected to issue a ruling by June." http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2018/01/19/supreme-court-announces-it-will-rule-on-trumps-travel-ban.html

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Number_of_terrorist_incidents_by_country [wikipedia.org]
    2016 numbers:
    UK, including London: 104 "incidents", 9 deaths, 20 injured
    US: 61 "incidents", 68 deaths, 139 injured
    France: 26 "incidents", 95 deaths, 470 injured.

    Terrorist attacks in the USA are already as common as terrorist attacks in London and France.

    Before immigration fom certain countries, the various native American tribes may have terrorised each other, but does it really count as terrorism when it's another tribe?

    The US has a lower rate of "incidents" per million than either France or UK, roughly 0.2 "incidents" per million people as opposed to almost 0.4 per for France and 1.6 per for the UK. I'll have to retire to the fainting couch at the thought of just how violent the UK must be.

    Also this is about concentrated areas of Islamic immigrants. If you move one in, it's not a problem--If you move a ton in and they make a "no go" zone, do some acid thrown in face attacks, some gang rape activity, then build a mosque--You get the mayor of London saying terrorist attacks are "part and parcel of living in a big city".

    Do you fear a BOMB?
    Are there Muslim no-go zones that you can't enter if you're anything else where you live?
    Have you heard of young girls having acid thrown in their face for rejecting having underage sex with Muslims?

    Terrorist attacks: Various.

      There's a Muslim no-go zone by me called Dearborn. I head over there every now and then since the only decent arcade around any more is in the vicinity. They always let me in no problem, and often they'll even sell me delicious food.

      Now, Christians otoh. We have a big no-go zone around Holland and Grand Rapids. I call the whole area bat country. Those Dutch, lemme tell you. You know how copper wire was invented? Two Dutchmen got into an argument about a penny. They'll throw acid in your face and charge you for the acid! (Plus hazmat fees, delivery charge, storage fees, etc etc.) And their food sucks!
