    A small country in which 400 have been killed by Muslims in the past year, and thousands of young girls used a sex slaves, might do something to protect its citizens from terrorists. So you would think.

    Thank You George Washington, Ben Franklin, Adams family, Paul Revere, Thomas Jefferson, etc, etc...

    For revolting from the tyranny and blindness of the British Crown (Seems still to be blind).

    Thank you for the Declaration of Independence, The Constitution, the Bill of Rights and myriad other writings defining who we are.

    Thank You for bringing/allowing us these unalienable rights granted by OUR Creator.

    AMEN!

    Thank you for reminding us to be grateful for all of the men who've fought for our freedom, and thank you for reminding us that without the care that the Founding Fathers used in crafting documents such as the Bill of Rights, we would be in serious danger of being in the same place as GB is now.

    Most Americans take our freedoms for grated, unfortunately. They have no idea what live in other parts of the world are live. Who would have thought, just a few years ago that what has just happen in GB could have happened.

    How can Islam ever reform itself? And how will it ever self-destruct? The Quran trips anyone who seeks to improve Islam. Political correctness has made Europeans follow along behind their progressive leaders such as Merkel and the Euro bureaucrats with bovine acquiescence.

    I agree with Phillip Parrish, candidate for Governor of Minnesota, who says that Islam is not a religion:

    "A long-shot Republican gubernatorial candidate is getting national attention for writing that he does not consider Islam a faith and that it is “the antithesis of the Constitution.”

    “I separate Islam from the word faith because faith takes belief and Islam requires only submission.” “...Islam, Sharia and the Quran are the antithesis of the U.S. Constitution.”

    Minnesota gubernatorial candidate under fire for calling Islam “antithesis of Constitution”

    I was there very briefly at the end of October. It is world class. For me it is only three hundred miles away and I want to go back and spend time so that I can examine every item. It is no sin to be poor but it is very inconvenient.... Hotel rooms are in short supply so we had to stay in Cincinnati suburb Blue Ash.

    400 terrorists arrested last year, don't know.

    You got that right - really glad Americans have this codified instead of the way the UK does it by "common law". That country did think up concepts like the First Amendment but it's not on paper and they can amend it by a simple majority vote, not by ratifying an amendment, which takes years.

    Free Speech has always been more restricted over there, and the Second Amendment is kaput - the Brits have been grabbing guns since the 1700s, political correctness kills.

    Yes because those school kids in Florida last month were killed by policital correctness weren't they?

    And the OP claimed that 400 people were killed by Muslim terrorists, not that 400 were arrested

    I don't know where the OP got the number from, either.

    In a way, yes - the shooter had been reported to the FBI and the school authorities over and over again:

    Political Correctness Is to Blame for Parkland

    even saying at one point what he was going to do, yet they did nothing to stop him.

    Broward County, as you know, is a Democrat stronghold, and the Democrat Sheriff had a policy of not arresting non-white students. So, yes, you are correct that Obama instigated political correctness was at the heart of the problem in Broward County.

    It does just that. I literally kills. There is nothing correct about it. It's simply repackaged Marxism.
