These guys would probably be as tasty as other folks.
The problem is once you decide you need security, how much is enough?
The real solution to this overarching problem is government control of all communication channels because there is greater danger from outsourcing our own citizens than there is them trying to come over.
As long as you are okay with that.

If I had my way I would begin treating this "radicalization" like we do with sexual predators. If one is caught trying to fly out of Canada to join ISIS, or do anything else that warrants special terrorist attention, then they are to be declared dangerous offenders under Canadian law and are locked up indefinitely. Then they can spend then next twenty or thirty years trying to figure out how to convince us that they aren't dangerous.
Yet our murder rate is lower now than it was in the years leading up to the end of capital punishment. Funny how that works. The death penalty would have 0 effect on people like this guy, the one a few days ago or the mass shooters. They generally wind up dead, not captured. You cant scare someone with death when they are on a suicide attack. I still feel perfectly safe in downtown Ottawa.
I heard that annoying voice from the commercials when I read that. I havent seen one of them in years. Weird how those little things apparently stay with you.
I think the thing with terrorism though is that we live in a society that cannot accept that it will always exist.
Even one death is one too many and we believe we can actually prevent terrorism from happening.
That could be difficult given in criminal cases the burden of proof is on the crown, not the defendant.
It's not about creating a fool proof system. These nuts will always exist. But we need to have the guts to stand up to it and declare no tolerance for it.
I hear what you're saying.
I just don't think there is any type of conflict strategy that would resolve the issue.
We need to focus on strengthening our own through education and good will.
Did you get high and watch Brazil?
Just fill out a 27B/6 and let the Ministry handle them.
Or how about the terrorists in Columbia who actually agreed to a truce with the government?

And there you are folks. This is what you get with unbridled Muslim immigration. Lying fanatical ****wits like this clown who devoutly follow their 6th century Bedouin death cult and in the process destroy the Canadian values and freedoms we have enjoyed for generations. Jesus Christ, people had to show up an hour early for the Oilers game tonight for extra security pat downs in case Abdi or Mohammed or some other follower of the religion of peace tries to murder the spectators.
Like jumping on a plane or publishing critical religious opinions, one more freedom like the days of taking your family and strolling Parliament Hill is gone thanks to Islam.
And Locutus, why is this idiot even here? He has threatened people on this forum which is a pretty clear violation of the rules.
I'm not going to sully your flags at half staff thread but I disagree. The ones who did the killing have interpreted the Koran correctly http://www.thereligionofpeace.com/quran/023-violence.htm. It is the Muslims who do not kill the infidel who the ones misinterpreting.

Speech from Prime Minister Stephen Harper:
My fellow Canadians, for the second time this week there has been a brutal and violent attack on our soil.
Today, our thoughts and prayers are with the family and friends of Corporal Nathan Cirillo of the Argyll and Sutherland Highlanders.
Corporal Cirillo was killed today - murdered in cold blood - as he provided a ceremonial honour guard at Canada’s national war memorial.
That sacred place that pays tribute to those who gave their lives so that we can live in a free, democratic and safe society.
Likewise, our thoughts and prayers remain also with the family and friends of Warrant Officer Patrice Vincent, who was killed earlier this week by an ISIL-inspired terrorist.
Tonight we also pray for the speedy recovery of the others injured in these despicable attacks.
Fellow Canadians, we have also been reminded today of the compassionate and courageous nature of so many Canadians, like those private citizens and first responders who came to provide aid to Corporal Cirillo as he fought for his life.
And, of course, the members of our security forces in the RCMP, the city of Ottawa police, and in parliament who came quickly, and at great risk to themselves, to assist those of us who were close to the attack.
Fellow Canadians, in the days to come, we will learn more about the terrorist and any accomplices he may have had.
But this week’s events are a grim reminder that Canada is not immune to the types of terrorist attacks we have seen elsewhere around the world.
We are also reminded that attacks on our security personnel and our institutions of governance are, by their very nature, attacks on our country.
On our values, on our society, on us, Canadians, as a free and democratic people who embrace human dignity for all.
But let there be no misunderstanding, we will not be intimidated. Canada will never be intimidated.
In fact, this will lead us to strengthen our resolve and redouble our efforts and those of our national security agencies, to take all necessary steps to identify and counter threats, and keep Canada safe here at home.
Just as it will lead us to strengthen our resolve and redouble our efforts to work with our allies around the world and fight against the terrorist organizations who brutalize those in other countries with the hope of bringing their savagery to our shores.
They will have no safe haven.
While today has been, without question, a difficult day, I have every confidence that Canadians will pull together with the kind of firm solidarity that has seen our country through many challenges.
Together, we will remain vigilant against those, at home or abroad, who wish to harm us.
For now, Laureen, Ben, Rachel, and I join all Canadians in praying for those touched by today’s attack.
May God bless them, and keep our land glorious and free.
he has? haven't seen any reported posts or complaints about it yet. have a link for us?
