Bipartisan Senate group proposes ‘no fly, no buy’ gun measure

And the crazies can be influential too to a degree, as they have influenced the followers of Trump, and all those demonstrators at Charlottesville and elsewhere.

Forgiveness is a release of emotional attachment to what we experience as hurt. Forgiveness is beneficial primarily for the forgiver. The understanding should be remembered; emotional clinging to the past is not needed, although we often do it. Understanding that, as Jesus said about those who crucified him, "they know not what they do", or like the African-American Christian victims of Dylann Roof who forgave him, forgiveness and transcending hate is possible.

 If that's what you believe and how you view things, why do you support the idea of giving more Islamic's the right to immigrate to this country and support the right of Islamic immigrants to remain living in this country after seeing/experiencing  what a few Islamic crazies have already  done? Gee, I've never suggested we that we ban all Islamic's or round them all up and ship them back to where they came from.

Have you ever been in Dearborn, Michigan, which has one of the largest concentrations of Muslims in America? It is a much safer place than the southwest side of Detroit. The southwest side of Detroit is a cesspool, with prostitutes offering themselves, drunks and addicts wandering about, drug dealing, and sexually-oriented businesses. Dearborn does not have that. There is typically a Dearborn police car at the city limit, and the cop in that police car is there to bust anyone who brings Detroit depravity into Dearborn. The Muslims insist upon a family-friendly community.

I could live with that. I would rather hear an Islamic call to prayer than be offered drugs or a 'trick'. Better the mosque than the whorehouse, right?

Dearborn is a no-go zone -- if you are a drunk, pusher, addict, pimp, or whore. Otherwise it is a safe haven. I have had a drink in a nice, quiet Irish bar there... but I was not there to get drunk.

Many Christians and Jews like things that way. I certainly do!

If you think that there has been terrorist activity there -- there was. Some extremists were caught with materials intended for a bombing. The target was a mosque, and the terrorists are associated with the fascistic Right. Note well: the terrorists of 9/11 stayed clear of Dearborn. Someone would have been reported.
The ideal subject of totalitarian rule is not the convinced Nazi or the dedicated Communist  but instead the people for whom the distinction between fact and fiction, true and false, no longer exists -- Hannah Arendt.
