Mark and Nancy Dawson think Muslims should be removed from the United States.

GREENVILLE, N.C. —  Mark and Nancy Dawson think Muslims should be removed from the United States.

The couple drove an hour and a half from Seaboard, North Carolina, for Wednesday’s campaign rally for President Donald Trump. They arrived early, setting up some lawn chairs in the shade of a tree as temperatures climbed toward 100 degrees outside Williams Arena. 

“I think Muslims should be kicked out of the country because Sharia law is not conducive to the Constitution, period,” said Mark, a retiree in a camouflage “Trump 2020” baseball cap and a T-shirt emblazoned with the words “United States of America: Love It or Leave It.”  

“I don’t hate them,” Nancy, a retired IBM programmer, said of Muslims. “I just think they should go back where they can be together and have their own country and their own religion.”

The Dawsons’ vision of mass deportation didn’t feel like much of a fringe position at Wednesday’s “Keep America Great” rally in Greenville. When the president took the stage, he reupped his call for four Democratic congresswomen of color, all four of whom are American, to “go back” to the countries they came from.

That Nancy said. It was when he tried running for President.

It’s a totally fake statement trying to turn their virulent racism into a pseudo benign well wishing remark.

perhaps longer than these two dimwits ancestors have. Ignorance knows no bounds even if you worked for IBM. They should study up on their history.

Muslims already can be together in a their own country; it's called the United States of America. Oddly enough, that very same privilege is extended to Southern Baptists, Catholics, Jews, and Atheists alike. Perhaps you should look around and see if there isn't another country you'd be more comfortable being a part of?
