CNN headline, "Iranian Leader: 'Death to America' refers to policies, not the nation. ... Slogan is backed by reason and wisdom." I was personally at a meeting recently and heard a woman crying as she spoke, "I grew up here, I knew everyone here in my small town. In the last few years we have been targeted as an area to place muslims who will never integrate and do not want to be American. They want to be a community separated from us. A few days before this meeting there was a Muslim man riding bike with a saber hanging on his side riding through the neighborhoods, there is an alarm in our community, we do not feel safe. I have never even considered having a gun in my home - ever. I now feel the only way to protect my family is to carry a gun so I got my permit to carry."
We used to be the "Great Melting Pot", our schools now teach we are the "Great Salad Bowl" where the lettuce stays the lettuce, the tomato stays the tomato, ect. Which America do you want? Al Franken, Amy Klobuchar and Rick Nolan think it is a wonderful idea to give billions of American dollars to Iran as well as nuclear capability, while our government is "targeting" rural areas for placement of hundreds of muslim refugees, who are 75 percent men between 18 and 30. Billion dollar question: Why isn't there a billion dollar deal with Iran to help or take these Muslims who are displaced by ISIS? Or any other Muslim country? Because they know there are many terrorist's in the "refugee" camps. Our government is going to place them here, common sense is not common. Shame on you Al, Amy and Rick for selling out our children's America.
