For some it may be, I choose to avoid it.

Don't ask me to defend an idea which I do not subscribe too.

we are going in circles now

Because of you.

if you choose to avoid it then surely you don't think that the propensity of emigrants from a certain area to be terrorists should be a factor when setting immigration policy?

I wouldn't use it if I were in charge, but then I'm not in charge now am I.

you wouldn't ever use it?

Unless I knew without a shadow of a doubt that the specific person trying to emigrate was a terrorist I would not use it.

what if we had a hypothetical example where 50% of the population of a country are terrorists who will carry out attacks on infidels if they are allowed into the united states

And that is where the conversation becomes pointless

it isn't pointless because i am getting to the heart of the principle

the tankie is talking again

great

Well, based on the hypothetical you presented, we know that 50% are terrorists, and in order to know that we must know who they are, so we know who we can and cannot let in the country.

let's say god came down from the heavens and told us that 50% of the people are terrorists

and we don't know who they are

🤦 🤦 🤦 🤦 🤦

should we place further restrictions on immigration from this country

Where done here, this is retarded.

meratrix do you understand the value of a hypothetical

I have a hypothetical

Do you understand the value of a slightly realistic hypothetical.

suppose god came down and said 100% of people are terrorists

the point of the hypothetical is to see if you hold this principle as an absolute

the idea that we shouldn't generalize

I don't believe in god.

checkmate

it doesn't matter

he exists in this hypothetical

if 50% of people were 'terrorists' it would be a civil war

not in the sense i am saying owl

they hate infidels

it could be a peaceful muslim nation

That is also true, @NightOwl In which case, @versterven , it is now a war.

why are you so insistent on dodging the core of the question

i'm not trying to get a "gotcha" or whatever i am trying to understand your position

Because I am not interested in answering a pointless retarded hypothetical that exists for the purpose of a gotcha moment. That's why.

but that's not why it exists

it exists because the tankie needs to beat off

Greetings fellow Alt-Right Kekistanis, how are we doing today?
