I agree with Richard and you also.....But it may be the time to clearer define this aspect so it is a standard that is Black and white in todays environment. We have so many Conservative, liberal and just nut jobs that twist the meaning of our laws on this aspect it might be good to define the boundary's a little more.

Remember this is America not Saudi Arabia..... We were not founded by Muslim's but by Judeo Christian beliefs. We embrace all religions but they do not embrace us. You have to have a 2 way exchange to make things work. Might just need to put a speed bump up to slow them down and make them think twice about harming our country and people.

Understand...but I worry about the "McCarthy Effect" with our current crop of incompetent, Chicken Little legislators. I think it's already covered in the Oath of Allegience, anyway.

"I hereby declare, on oath, that I absolutely and entirely renounce and abjure all allegiance and fidelity to any foreign prince, potentate, state, or sovereignty of whom or which I have heretofore been a subject or citizen; that I will support and defend the Constitution and laws of the United States of America against all enemies, foreign and domestic; that I will bear true faith and allegiance to the same; that I will bear arms on behalf of the United States when required by the law; that I will perform noncombatant service in the Armed Forces of the United States when required by the law; that I will perform work of national importance under civilian direction when required by the law; and that I take this obligation freely without any mental reservation or purpose of evasion; so help me God."

FWIW, I went to the USCIS web-site and took the citizenship test--scored 100%. It didn't seem all that hard to me; there were just a couple of questions I had to think much about. Here's the link.

I missed one. Alaska was the 49th and Hawai'i was number 50. Good test though!

I wonder about the name of this thing: Jihad prevention act. Doesn't seem to be a good title for what the wording of the act says. Jihad, as I understand it, means different things to different people- and isn't limited to insurrection to form Sharia law. Think we are being very strategically ignorant here.
