So unfortunately your pathetic meme reply is not valid.
Oh, for a second I thought you were concerned about western culture being "invaded".

Lol. That's really going to protect people from terrorists.

That's not France, you dumbasses. The cops have "Police" in ENGLISH on their shirts.

While that area is beautiful, those rocks are not at all comfortable.

Funny how you introduced the word invaded and put it in quotes to give the impression that I used the term in my comment when I in fact did not. I also never mentioned Western culture, I mentioned Western nations, which perhaps you fail to recognize encompasses more than just America.
I'm sure you knew that, it's just a common tactic from your ilk to use memes or platitudes to try and discredit and ridicule those with differing opinions or worldviews as xenophobes. You perfectly exemplified my original point with your idiotic response.

France is concerned about it's declining western culture. Good for them.
Ultimately though, the only impact this will have is when it gets featured in Dabiq and mentioned in some suicide bomber's martyrdom video.

The way to "protect Western Culture" probably isn't letting huge swaths of a foreign culture into your country and systematically oppressing them and depriving them of their free religious exercise. Just my $.02

The irony.
I get criticized for calling out xenophobic attitudes by the person calling for homogenous populations.
Please, go on.

Moslems. Don't start no sh*t, won't be know sh*t.

What are you shrugging about, exactly? Try putting your thoughts into unambiguous sentences instead.

You got criticized for posting an impertinent meme and then putting words in people's mouths.
Where did I call for homogenous populations and do you suggest that blunting the mass immigration of a particular religious group whose values run contrary to those of Western liberal democracy and in many cases outright call for its overthrow is tantamount to xenophobia or calling for homogenous populations?
Try not responding with a meme or emoji and try not to misrepresent the words and ideas I've put forth when you respond. You seem to struggle with that in your sanctimonious replies.

Legislating something doesn't make it right, or in some cases even legal. Prohibition, The Nuremberg Laws, the Code Noir, Jim Crow, etc... were all legal at some point. I think you would agree they stripped freedoms from people.

How exactly is that lady on the beach a barbarian? There are an estimated 100,000 ISIS members out of 1.6 Billion Muslims. That's .00625% of the Muslim population. Most of them just want to live happy lives and raise some kids. This lady was chilling on the beach in France not making some political stand.
I work with a ton of them and yes this happens, more often than not, with the ones who "just want to live happy lives and have kids".
But again you do have the ones that want to splurge and do everything Americans want to do. But i find they are more like baptists. Why will do all that when they are the only muslim around but when another is there, they go back to the muslim ways.
