After the Fort Hood incident is it time to boot all Muslims out of our military?

How can we ever trust a Muslim with a gun again? We will always have to ask ourselves is he a REAL American or has he listened to the call to religious war by his Muslim comrades? Speaking of Muslims and our inability to trust them in positions of power, do you think it is time we take Obama out of office as well? How can we trust Muslims? If you say we must trust them, just tell me how to do it.

Update:

Chewy Ivan

You are a complete tool. The Pro-Life movement does NOT endorse violence, nor do they as a group endorse gun ownership. They also have NOT called a Holy War against anyone. Your comparison of the Pro-Life movement, a group of people who seek to prevent the needless slaughter of unborn babies through peaceful protest and legal legislation with militant terrorist who routinely commit mass murder only shows how stupid or crazy or both you are.

Update 2:

Quirk,

You liberal idiot. How dare you compare the people of New York and Catholics to Muslim terrorists. There are no Catholic leaders calling for killing the non-believers, nor is there any New York group seeking to take over the world or kill all who get in their way. It's idiots like you that make this sort of violence possible by being so bone headed stupid!

Update 3:

Mark F.

You sure seem to think you are smart for a tire boy in a grease monkey shop. How much do you earn? Maybe you should go to school and get a real job and stop wasting our time with you dimwitted attempts at being clever.

Update 4:

Kat,

As a Navy wife I appreciate your opinion. I also salute you and your husband for your sacrifice and service to our country. I am however concerned that perhaps your thoughts about your Muslim neighbors and their intentions towards Americans and in particular your husband as a serviceman, may be overly optimistic. I hope you are right. Remember though it only takes one nut with a gun to end your husband's life. And don't kid yourself, ats Muslims your neighbors are being urged to do so everyday.

Update 5:

Tori,

The fact that you are a "proud member" of our military requires that I thank you for your service to our country. However the stupidity of your answer requires that I comment on the sad shape of our military. First of all our country hasn't been around for 400 years "in slaving" (enslaving) Black. Your spelling is awful, your understanding of history laughable. If you are truly an example of the brains of our military, God help us. By the way I am not a bigot. I have Muslim friends. When a Muslim is in a trusted position in our military even after he shows signs that he is an enemy is a REAL problem. It is one thing to be tolerant. It is another to be stupid. The fact that he went off and started killing people tells me that someone somewhere wasn't doing their job. Maybe they were too busy being tolerant at all cost no matter what. I say the lives of those killed at Fort Hood was too high of a price to pay. Maybe the Muslims shouldn't be in our military?

    You damned right it is. How much more proof do we need that this is an intolerant and violent religion that promotes mass murder? Killing the infidels (those not of islam) is part of their teaching. How many more of these sadistic acts do we need? This isn't the first time this has happened and people forget. A few years back some muslim marine threw a grenade killing his squad in the name of islam. **** these bastards. We're suppose to trust them with rifles, machine guns, explosives, and other sensitive information. We can't trust muslims. They are too f*cked up. Yes one day there will come a time when we can get along but it won't be any time soon. The christian crusades were just as disgusting and it didn't get better over night. Timothy was a messed up dude and it's not in the bible to murder a sinner. I love how everyone uses the same example over and over and over. WOW you people can name 1 person! 99% of all terrorist attacks come from muslims. Is that so hard for the liberals to grasp? Sorry but it starts just becoming the law of probability when it's that often. They make up such a small portion of the US military that they are not needed and we are better off without taking the chance. I'd more than welcome gays over f*cking terrorist.

    An officer ? Of the Law or Officer of the Military? So the order got here from the white condo? Wow! Sick! It is unusual that MSNBC and NBC and so on.. do not duvet all of the Radical Muslim terror plots that get busted within the US- and prevent calling them what they're Muslim Terrorists! For a few cause our government does not wish humans to understand there's a Religious motion known as Jihad - and they're Muslim Terrorists.

    Ahhh, I love the smell of bigotry in the mornings. You know, it's this same type of intolerance that you and many other people share in this country that started the crusades, in slaved black people for 400 years then lynched, raped, and dogged the race for over a centuary afterwards.This same type of bigotry started the trail of tears, forced Native Americans onto reservations while taking everything from them in return, put Japanese Americans in internment camps after Pearl Harbor, and caused pretty much every country on this damn planet to hate us. Keep it up.

    I think maybe we should kick you and your kind out of this damn country or send you to Pluto.

    We can't trust them...not until someone, anyone, in the Muslim community comes forward and denounces the radical factions of that Islamic religion that on one hand claims to be a "peaceful religion" and on the other hand produces hatred such as we saw in the recent Fort Hood shootings.

    Who is speaking up for the Muslim community and disclaiming these fanatics?

    Or...are these actions that are killing Americans being condoned?

    btw...this IS America...no one gets "booted" out of here.

    But, we must be aware of the fact there are certain "factions" within our communities who hate us, want to kill us and who pray five times a day for their "god" to give them the strength and the resources to do just that.

    Thank all of you for posting questions like this.

    I seriously underestimated the depth of delusion that our teenagers face. Based on this staggering ignorance, I've put together several classes on Islam for my Marines. ~60 Marines will get about 5 hours education to counteract this mentality, and guide them towards a mindset that will help us win wars. Make no mistake: your bigotry is poison to American warfighting.

    Seriously, no sarcasm intended: thank you. Though your mind may be too far gone for help, you ended up helping anyway.

    I live in very populated Muslim community.There isn't one day that I see my neighbors sitting on their front steps with their machine gun in hand and waiting for the americans to get home. So they can shoot them at close range and watch them bleed to death. This isn't about trust. This is about an isolated incident. Get Real. I am sure there are people in this country you don't trust

    Muslims have no place in civilized society and can't be trusted. They are taught to kill all infidels. They should not be allowed to enter our military, our colleges or our country. Seems that everyone has forgotten 9/11. We have enough nutbags in America (like T.McVeigh) as it is without letting nutbags from other cultures come in here and cause even more problems! America! Love it or leave it!!!

    Last year when a Christian soldier killed 5 of his comrades were you leading the charge to boot all Christians from the armed forces?

    I thought not.

    Your just another bigot, and not even a very quick one since about 150 people beat you to posting more or less this same question already.
