That's not a good idea.

It's an overreaction to a minority of people who cause trouble for the people for the loads of people who have there religion and don't go around blowing shit up.

When Shelly Shannon in 1993 killed Dr. George Tiller, you didn't see people call for deporting all christians.


It also doesn't work, as long as there are countries with less-than-stellar security around their long-range armaments.

Nice try, but you having a black friend doesn't change the fact that the stuff you're posting is blatantly racist.

Eh. Ethnically, one can be defined as having English heritage through a simple DNA test.

Not justifying their argument, just that it's not pseudoscience.
