Hero Stands Up To Future Muslim Nightmare

Virgil Goode, a Virginian Representative in the US House, isn’t afraid to stand up and fight for America. Goode wrote a letter to his constituents to explain his concerns about the possibility of Muslim hordes living in our sweet country. He was reacting to the frightening controversy over the first Muslim being elected to the House and deciding to be sworn in on the Koran.

In his letter, Goode warns Americans that the US has to close its borders in order to guard against the Muslim hordes. If not, there will be more Muslims and those Muslims will be elected to Congress. Goode goes on to narrate an incident that occurred in his Washington office recently. It seems a Muslim student stopped by and asked him why he did not have the Koran up next to the Ten Commandments on his wall. Goode was not amused because he loves God. He claims he told the punk:


"As long as I have the honor of representing the citizens of the 5th District of Virginia in the United States House of Representatives, The Koran is not going to be on the wall of my office."


He really set that fictional student straight. And may I say, it is about time fictional students like him were put in their place. Goode is fighting the good fight in other ways also, having proposed an amendment to the Constitution to make English the official language of the US. He believes that if things continue on the current path we could end up like Canada. Which, I think is bad?

Here is the full text of the letter.


Thank you for your recent communication. When I raise my hand to take the oath on Swearing In Day, I will have the Bible in my other hand. I do not subscribe to using the Koran in any way. The Muslim Representative from Minnesota was elected by the voters of that district and if American citizens don’t wake up and adopt the Virgil Goode position on immigration there will likely be many more Muslims elected to office and demanding the use of the Koran. We need to stop illegal immigration totally and reduce legal immigration and end the diversity visas policy pushed hard by President Clinton and allowing many persons from the Middle East to come to this country. I fear that in the next century we will have many more Muslims in the United States if we do not adopt the strict immigration policies that I believe are necessary to preserve the values and beliefs traditional to the United States of America and to prevent our resources from being swamped.

The Ten Commandments and “In God We Trust” are on the wall in my office. A Muslim student came by the office and asked why I did not have anything on my wall about the Koran. My response was clear, “As long as I have the honor of representing the citizens of the 5th District of Virginia in the United States House of Representatives, The Koran is not going to be on the wall of my office.” Thank you again for your email and thoughts.


Thank God somebody in Congress cares about America, I was beginning to worry.

I think a removed-from-context quote sums up this position nicely:

We need to stop illegal immigration totally and reduce legal immigration and end the diversity

I propose making everyone entering the USA swear on the Holy Bible at their port of entry that they accept the baby Jesus to be their personal lord and savior. And then branding them with a big fucking cross on the forehead.

Or better yet, why not the Constitution?

I don't get this.

The use of the bible is supposed to imbue a sense of fear in the person swearing an oath on it. To make them think that God is going to fuck their shit up if they weren't being sincere, or if they renege on the deal.

But that loses its power if the person doesn't regard the bible as holy or having authority. You might as well make non-Christians swear an oath on a handbook of a Ford Focus.

Keith Ellison should be required to swear his oath on the Quran - not forbidden from doing so.

As for "ending diversity". Multiculturalism is a failed doctrine. Anything taken to an extreme is unhealthy. The dark side of diversity is segregation, but what about the bright side?

We don't require anyone to swear "on" anything in this country. Ever.

No it's not.

Coming from one of the most ardent extremists on this board, I think that's fantastically ironic.

What the hell are you talking about?

The moment he exits Congress, he will be slapping that Qu'ran *all over* the walls of his office.

I'm not extreme, I'm moderate. I am a loud, vocal moderate in a generally left wing environment. To a leftist, moderate views are "extreme". But that's a perspective gained from their political position.

The influence of different cultures enhances our society. Imagine living in London if all you could eat was traditional British food and all you could listen to was Anthony Newly.

However, if government coddles and emphasises cultural differences, it ends up creating cultural silos.

Our national culture must not stifle other cultures. Other cultures should enhance - not subsume - our national culture.

Nope. Not ever. Or not anything religious anyway. See US Constitution Article VI sec. 3 and Amendment I.

Moderates see things in shades of grey and are able to understand the perspective of both sides of an issue before coming to a decision on his or her own personal take. You do not see things in shades of grey or demonstrate the ability to understand and incorporate nuance or subtlety. You see things as black and white. You are an extremist. To be fair, you are not the only vocal extremist here, but you are certainly not a moderate on the vast majority of issues that you seem to post about.

As for diversity and segregation, what you're actually arguing here is that the way multiculturalism has been pursued in your country has not worked the way you'd like it to work. You have not made an argument that multiculturalism is a "failed doctrine".

What difference is there between this Virgil Goode and an Saudi-arabian muslim arguing that woman shouldn't be allowed to drive or get an higher education. Same extremism..different religion

Incidentally, how does a court impel a nihilist to tell the truth? I suppose there are purgery laws...

No - that's just the namby-pamby, wishy-washy, panty-waist moderates. I am a militant moderate!

When championing decency and common sense, I don't want or need to make concessions to the stupid or evil. And with the far left and far right converging, I don't have to stare at shades of grey to spot repugnant extremism.

But enough about me....please!

Its failure in Britain is reflected in closed communities, hostility between cultures, shitty single culture schools, the indulgence of religious extremists and municipal facilities having to print literature in every language known to mankind. It has lead to "us and them" resentment and the rise of groups like the BNP.

Don't get me wrong - going too far the other way produces exclusion and resentment, as witnessed in the Paris Intifada.

That's why I suggest the moderate route.

Maybe I am misunderstanding what this man is trying to say, but... Does this mean we should also deport all of the Christians as well and go back to worshipping the Religion that was already in place when The Roman Catholics got here?
