There is a place for laws and supervision - Yes. However, where the state can exercise a real benefit to the people is in its ability to protect its citizens. Killing bad guys and detouring bad guys is what the state is for. Everything else as far as I'm concerned is a garnish.

I don't want to decide. I want the state to protect me and you from anyone or anything that would seek to destroy us or enslave us. I think Islam seeks to accomplish one or the other.

If we wanted to get philosophical I would say they are not true Muslims. When they honor our military and participate in the GWOT they dishonor Islam and therefore - No, they shouldn't be deported. I think the time will come when we will have to put the Muslims in our midst to a loyalty test. I'm am not suggesting we "kill" those who fail the test (like the Nazis would), but rather we deport them.

Yeah, maybe.
Perhaps, it served to get your attention.
