Extremism Has Spread Into The U.S?

And I'm not referring to Islamic extremism. There's an article I've just read which suggests that Trump and his supporters aren't that different from ISIS.

Terrorists like ISIL are trying to divide us along lines of religion and background,” as President Obama warned recently. “Prejudice and discrimination helps ISIL and it undermines our national security.”

Isn't this Trump's strategy? Stirring up emotions and creating divisions?

Yes, the packs of rabid trumpeteers running around murdering anyone they come across is shocking.

Imagine what we have become when insisting the government enforce laws, protect us from enemies foreign and demestic is viewed as extreme.

From your post.. Either you’re with us, or you’re with the terrorists (or the infidels). The key to this strategy is the adversary’s vitriolic hatred and violence, which sends the moderates fleeing to the extreme.

Sounds familiar ? Either we agree with the liberals or we are RACIST, BIGOTS, or ISLAMOPHOBIC..

I've touched on this in another thread and there doesn't seem to be a middle ground. If you think the borders should remain open then your a terrorist. If you think they should be closed your labelled as a racist.

Is that really the case? Of course it isn't and things aren't that black and white are they? (Pun not intended)
