You might be accused of profiling, but not a slur by any stretch of the imagination.

"If I said, "We have no way of telling which whites are good and decent people versus those who would destroy our country", then you would consider THAT a slur?"

Yes...if by saying that you were to imply a disqualification of ALL whites as you are with Muslims.

"We know that many Muslims mean us harm, and the nature of the religion is such that we cannot reasonably establish which do and which don't. Sorry, that's the way it is."

Yes.

It is just a fact of life. We know that many Muslims mean us harm, and the nature of the religion is such that we cannot reasonably establish which do and which don't. Sorry, that's the way it is.

That is not true. The vast majority are too busy living their lives.
