I'll Pass On This Cultural Enrichment

David Strom:

Noting that not all Muslims will slit your throat or rape your daughter is hardly an argument for the continuation of mass Islamic migration. That some Muslims integrate and that many of their children do well in school is a trivially true fact that tells you absolutely nothing other than that individuals are different, and even within groups that statistically are more likely to collect welfare, commit crimes, rape girls and women, and attack people who don't share their beliefs, there are plenty of good people.

So what? You don't make public policy based on the exceptions, or even the bare majority. If importing vast numbers of people, a third or a half of whom will cause enormous problems and drain the public purse, you should not do it. It's no different than following a policy where we let all felons out of jail under the correct assumption that some of them will never reoffend.

If I told you that 42 percent of a group whose members under 35 (the vast majority of Muslim immigrants fit into this category) believe that violence against anybody who disagrees with them on their religion deserves to be assaulted or killed, would you recommend importing millions of them?

Obviously not. It is insane. It's the basket-of-apples problem. Would you buy a basket of apples where 42 percent of them could poison you, hoping that the ones you eat or feed your children won't be one of them?

And that's not all of it: studies show that the second generation of Muslim immigrants are MORE, not less, radicalized. And mosques are often led by the radicalizers, and the mosques are popping up everywhere.
