<Also, the rules that you throw up as examples of racism, such as not allowing the Palestian spouse of an Israeli Arab to move to Israel, are neither racist in intent nor of long standing. They were implemented recently, because several suicide bombers had married Israeli Arabs to gain access to Israel.>
Recently, a Pastor at a church in a neighboring town, got irritated about repeated burglaries at his church. So he got a gun, and shot two of them. In the back. Killed both, one in the church, one outside as he was running away. Now, let's say you disapproved of the Pastor's methods, and wanted to stop similar events in the future. How would you go about it? Would you advocate allowing no Pastors (and maybe no Priests or Imams as well) into the community? Some Pastors shoot burglars in the back, so all Pastors must be controlled and kept out? He was also a white man. Maybe we should expel all white men from the region, to solve this problem. Or maybe just all the male Pastors (I think we can trust the female ones). Do you understand why the Geneva Conventions label collective punishment a war crime?

BTW, a jury of Alaskans acquitted the Pastor of all charges (a verdict I agree with). We are gun-loving libertarians.
