That media reports things very differently depending on religion and race. There are in fact just as many white British terrorists as there are Muslim ones, they are instead murderers though. When was the last time you heard of a non white murderer? If they are black they are a gangster. If they are Muslim they are a terrorist. If they are white they are a murderer or mentally ill according to the media.

Terrorist groups and individuals are not exclusively Muslim and less than 1% of Muslims participate in extremist/terrorist groups.

 @9FCPBSSagreed…7mos7MO

The percentage of Muslims that are also terrorists is so minute, you’d be better off screening people with a known criminal record

 @9FCKYY7agreed…7mos7MO

You can't impose different rules on an entire religion based on one single event that happened to a different country 20 years ago

 @9FCJX8YConservativefrom Illinois agreed…7mos7MO

Goes against human rights as it is banning an entire religion from even attempting to immigrate to the UK

 @9FVB9VCLabouragreed…7mos7MO

To discriminate a certain group of people goes against the Human Rights Act and English Law. There are many bad people in all range of groups regardless of race or religion and to target a certain group is despicable and horrid.

 @9FNQQGBagreed…7mos7MO

The attack on Muslim immigrants in the uk genuinely shocks and scares me. There are just as many terrorists from any other religion than just Muslim. It’s not the religion but the individual themself. Yet Muslims are projected to be “dangerous” or a “threat” on the country.

Muslims are not a threat. Any individual can be a threat. But many naive and inconsiderate individuals refuse to believe that an English person could be a threat to a country. They are just deemed to lack mental capacity and in some cases that could be true. But I guarantee you if that was someone of a different nationality the word “terrorist” would be written all over the daily mail and news.

 @9FK7TQKdisagreed…7mos7MO

Traditional Muslim values and culture do not align with traditional British values and culture. The respect of our culture is usually not forthcoming. It would be equally wrong to push tradditional British values on Muslim countries.

 @9FGVHYCdisagreed…7mos7MO

Current screening is not up to standard. Even 1 in a 1000 is still 1 too many when we talk about the safety of citizens.

 @9FCZWFJagreed…7mos7MO

If an English person killed a bunch of Spanish people because he was some kind of religious fanatic would it be fair to ban all British people from Benidorm?

 @9FCCL33agreed…7mos7MO

 @9FC8K5Sagreed…7mos7MO

Well it goes against human rights act because there being treated differently because of there religion

 @9FC6NWLagreed…7mos7MO

in 2021, the number of reported xenophobic hate crimes in the UK was 28889, with 3459 occurrences specific to Muslims.

Islamophobia is actively promoted by the campaigns run in places such as Yemen.

 @9FC55QZagreed…7mos7MO

People in Syria, many of whom are Muslim, are struggling with the brutal Civil War and need to migrate to keep themselves and their family safe. They have no ill intentions, but because of a select few, there are people who think they shouldn't be allowed to enter the country.

 @9FBC4SZLabouragreed…7mos7MO

Not only would the 2010 equality act make it illegal, An N15 study in 2008 found that most of these terrorists are not even devout Muslims. There are many other groups like the KWP(Kurdistan worker party) and the Neo-Nazi "The base". Have all Kurd's and Americans been banned from coming to the UK? We should be focused on stopping the cause not the syptom.

 @9F9NWFSagreed…8mos8MO

People shouldn’t have to stay in dangerous places or places they don’t want to stay at just because of our own issues with the screening process

 @9F9F9Y8agreed…8mos8MO

Making it illegal for muslim immigrants to travel to the UK would not tackle the issue that the UK has killed thousands in their wars in the middle east.

 @9F55KRNdisagreed…8mos8MO

Some minority factions of Muslim religion call for the death of all none Muslims. Anybody can walk in and you've no idea who they are.

 @9FFWJBSagreed…7mos7MO

Just because people are of a different race and religion it doesn't mean they are dangerous, think about all the wars that people in the west and of a Christian religion has started compared to those who follow Islam.

 @9FD36J3agreed…7mos7MO

Many scientists and doctors are of muslim background, so if you ban all muslims then you’re cutting the UK out of scientific research and flourishing

 @9FHXYPQagreed…7mos7MO
