Destroy the premise of this country and we'll be consumed from within. It seems a certain percentage are hell bent on that course, so have at it.

But note this quote from attorney James Donovan who defended Russian spy Rudolf Abel.. "If the free world is not faithful to its own moral code, there remains no society for which others may hunger."

The solution most certainly is not reducing the vetting time by 80%. In what world would anyone consider that a reasonable course of action? When one of those commits an act of terroism killing thousands will those that support reducing vetting time by 80% man up and admit to their catastrophic mistake? Most likely they will shrink into the shadows or worse yet blame those who are tasked with finding the proverbial needle in the haystack in 80% less time. I have no probelm with LEGAL immigration and have stated so numerous times down here but I am certainly for seriously vetting of those coming from parts of the world where terrorisim is an everyday occurrence. To your point . The number and magnitude of attacks today far far exceeds those of the groups that you cite. Failing to accept that and yearning for days long gone is dangeous and grossly irresponsible.
