        Would you live in a Muslim majority country? No? Probably because they are mostly all #Shitholes where people (especially woman) live under the misogynistic, barbaric and downright dangerous ideology known as Islam & sharia law. #

        Probably is hardly proven reasoning. Do you have any idea which countries are mostly Muslim? Do you realize that there are more women in government in Afghanistan than the US?

        Islam is not compatible with western culture. They cannot coexist with the west. This town manager should not have been fired! Eradicate Islamic ideology from from this earth!

        How would you say Muslim-majority countries rank to U.S. on civil liberties?

        Conservative American Christianity isn’t compatible with American values.

        I mean he’s not wrong. Look at Europe. Also Islam is not a race. Lots of religions have problems adapting.
