Wondering What People Think

HATE TO BREAK IT to you, but you simply can't tell by looking at a person whether said person is an adherent of the Islamic faith. If you're lucky, you can tell by looking at any given human being its approximate age, gender, and perhaps even place of origin, but certainly, not the religion. That we keep inside. Moslems wear everything and anything from dockers to blue jeans to three piece suits, to sweats, and they range in color from light to dark, from young to old, male, female, and all other gender options, what ever they are at any given time. If the United States ever decides to adopt Donald Trump's foreign policy and exclude Islamic immigrants from American soil, any among them wanting entrance will need only place a check mark in the "non Moslem" box, and get in. Sometimes you have to wonder where people get their ideas, and how long they spend really thinking about them. The Great Wall of Trump comes to mind. As it snakes along the south side of the Rio Grande, how tall will it be? How thick? Of what material will it be made? And how, above all else, will we ever stop people from climbing over it, digging under it, or blasting through it? If we station guards along the wall to protect it from abuse, we'll need quite a few guards. With that many full time guards, we might as well station the military along the Rio Grande, in which case, we won't need a wall at all. Sometimes you wonder what folks are thinking.
