Don't worry, I'm sure it was just someone with a mental illness unrelated to the religion of peace. Perhaps we can offer the driver refugee status, presuming he lived through what was no doubt a traumatic episode for him.

Yes because refugees are the same thing as terrorists. You don't sound stupid at all.

We haven't had terrorists come here as refugees, genius?

Bastards come from everywhere.  I think we knew that.  Kent is no exception.

In his mind it's a rampant problem. Of the tens of thousands of refugees we've accepted the vast majority of them are terrorists and if they're not terrorists they're certainly planning on committing terrorism in the future.

Nevermind the fact that refugees are escaping radical islamofascists. That doesn't matter.

That would be why I almost never mention it...

Let in a refugee who turned out to be a terrorist.

Yes. We're usually in the process of trying to depart one or two, though we clearly don't always discover who they were. That's because it can take years to get final approval from our incompetent court system.

Oh look. They were being deported. It's almost as though the system does what it's supposed to.

So you've gone from mocking the idea that refugees might be terrorists to proudly congratulating our system for trying to remove them, even if it takes more than a decade in the courts? Do you realize we've been trying to deport Harkat since 2002?

Has he attacked anyone? There's a reason these things take time. If he were to break the law in Canada, he would be dealt with immediately. The problem is you want people dealt with before they break the law. You want a different set of laws for immigrants than the rest of us.

Don't tell me what I want if I haven't said I want it.

He's been either in prison or under house arrest and observation for over ten years now as the case winds its way through the court. These things take time? You're a hell of a lot more patient than I am. How much have we spent on this guy, his lawyers, our lawyers and the courts to get rid of him now?

He lied to come here - from a safe third country, btw. That should be more than enough on its own to boot him out immediately.

He's been in prison and under house arrest. Sounds like our legal system is working just fine. I'm not sure what your concern is about.

Firing squads have been outlawed?
