When these Zombie Jihadists kill enough of us, it will happen. It will be during Trump's eight years.
Come on, when the President or the Congress creates the law that says no Muslims can come to the US, and then some Muslim already in the US challenges that law, how does the government argue that Congress has not made a law respecting an establishment of religion?
Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion
I'm curious what would be the government's argument in court. I'm not saying I agree or disagree with idea, but how can you ban Muslims (or anything remotely close to that) when the 1st amendment basically says you can't make laws about religions?
People get killed by guns each year, and the Left can't ban guns. That's because
the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed.
Maybe zombie jihadi murders in the US go up by 10x next year, and lets say many of them are home grown US-born Muslims. Lets say the rest are all Arabs, Pakistanis and whatever else you want, but the thing that unites them is Islam. America is in uproar with a disgust over the Muslim lunatics and their terror incidents.
How you going to ban Muslims without making a law about a religion? People get killed by guns, and gun control laws get thrown out at the Supreme Court all of the time. If people get killed by Muslims, Muslim control laws (or whatever you want to call it) seem likely to get tossed as well.
I know you really want it to happen. I'm just curious how you think it will pass the constitutional challenge?

All I can think of is .....
1- You'd need to argue Islam is not a religion, and thus not protected by the 1st amendment. This seems tough.
2- You'd need to target citizens of Islamic nations rather than the religion. But then you're going to miss French Muslims, English Muslims, Russian Muslims, etc. And you're going to have a hard time getting Indonesia and Malaysia on the list. And if the list of banned nationalities was 100% "Islamic nations", you're probably going to run the problem of making a law about religions even though it technically restricts specific nationalities. The intent is clearly directed at Muslims.
3- Constitutional amendment? Yeah, right.
Maybe it's not interesting discussion to you, if so fine, no problem. But you've brought this up so often perhaps you've considered it?
