What the hell is racist about assimilating into the local culture? Also, you seem to be very unfamiliar with radical islamic schools in Britain.

> What the hell is racist about assimilating into the local culture? Forcing someone to assimilate just because the other person is "not from here" certainly is racist. > Also, you seem to be very unfamiliar with radical islamic schools in Britain So what? Radical religious schools are nothing new, in fact they're a price of having religious freedom. Did you forget the Irish history? Boiled down, religious war. And even today, every major religion has their boneheaded backwards-oriented buffoons which don't shy off from corporeal or capital punishment - the Catholics have Opus Dei (and whatever more is going on in Vatican, but I won't go down that tinfoil hat now), the Jews have the Orthodox movement, Islam the Salafists, and for what it's worth people also kill and maim in the name of Buddhism and Hinduism.

  > Forcing someone to assimilate just because the other person is "not from here" certainly is racist. Certainly they have no need of going to a place where they cannot adapt to the local culture? They crossed many otherwise peaceful countries. There's many other places where they can go to where they can keep 100% of their cultural habits with no friction with anyone else. Moderate muslims have no freaking problem with playing along with local rules. It's always some radical jackass pretending that every other muslim is getting as offended as he is by the suggestion and some braindead panel show or journalist playing along with it. > So what? Radical religious schools are nothing new, in fact they're a price of having religious freedom. Nice bait. Some of these schools are riddled with all sorts of abuse of its students, including physical. Passively letting muslim kids get educated, abused and raised by islamists in your own territory is a far greater betrayal to these kids than it would have been to put them in a school system where they don't hear about islam at all except in the context of "here's a list of the major religions in the world, here's the main ideas about them, I guess nobody can really be sure about what's out there after all, right? So let's all try to get along, and if someone is trying to get you to kill for your religion, you turn them in to the police, because that's very messed up. Also, atheists are okay people tips fedora." > lel what about christian past or people elsewhere fighting back after decades of terror Hey, how about you give me a list of present day British Christian suicide bombers, or Hindus or Buddhists causing terror in Europe before you give me this false equivalence garbage. It's so strange that Hindus and Buddhists are turning violent only where they have extensive conflict with radical Islam, colour me very surprised. > Opus dei My friend, you need to put those Dan Brown books down. They aren't even good.
