Unvarnished Truth

Like in much of Western Europe, there is a growing cultural clash occurring in the United States as a result of our shift towards favoring Islamic immigrants over other cultures. In particular, honor killings, clitoridectomies, Shariah law, terrorist incitements, and face veils (niqabs) are but a few of the Islamic practices that cut across the grain of our American culture. 

John Hinderaker of the Powerline blog has faced this issue head on and bravely suggests that the United States re-evaluate its current immigration policies with the unvarnished thought that “the most prudent course would be to end immigration from predominantly Muslim countries, with exceptions for adherents of other faiths –Christians, Hindus, and so on – who are fleeing persecution.” For his full discussion and rationales see: Cultural Differences, Assimilation and Immigration Policy.

This suggestion surprised me a bit for I have not seen it elsewhere so boldly expressed. However, I too feel that, for the indefinite future, this immigration policy change makes supreme sense.
