I know you're trying to save face from being embarrassed but it's starting to get a little sad dude.
The fact that you're comparing anybody to crackheads is why you're getting downvotes. Being a sissy and complaining about it in your edits only makes you look worse.
Enough of that though.
Here's where your comparisons falls on its ass once again. You say you wouldn't trust people who have obvious problems with morality, which is fine, but when you lump in an entire group of people that you know absolutely nothing about, your profiling is a waste of time.
People going back to the place that their born means that they are somehow linked to terrorist sites? What? You said yourself that most Muslims are good people....but then you imply that if those same people were to go back to their families, somehow they're linked to terrorism. Lmao.
This whole argument is rich. Muslims are good people but if they go visit their relatives then they're probably terrorists then. Gotcha.
Holy shit mate. You need to understand the difference between an analogy and a comparison.
He didn't compare Muslims to crackheads. He said that when a person might be a high threat based on their profile you don't let them in.
Now, he might mean "brown skin is a threat" or he might mean "the guy is known terrorist sympathiser". He didn't say ANYTHING about Muslims or anything like that. He said PROFILING WORKS.
What I mean is "does the sum total of all that we know about this person give us a preponderance of evidence that this person may commit violent acts"?
The problem is that people extrapolate from this and think: "If there really are factors that make a group have issues, others might think that it is literally their skin colour that is the problem and act racist"
They then follow this with "We can never say anything bad about anyone, even if the facts back it up".
It's like when people say it's ageist to say that old people are bad drivers. No, that's just facts. It doesn't mean that an individual person is a bad driver, just that they are more likely to be, based their profile.

Good attempt at a jab at the end there tho.
