No. No. No no no no no:

Trump won’t rule out special ID for Muslim Americans noting their religion

‘Some people are going to be upset’ Republican frontrunner says, adding he would consider warrantless searches of Muslims and surveillance on mosques

Donald Trump would not rule out tracking Muslim Americans in a database or giving them “a special form of identification that noted their religion”, the Republican presidential candidate said on Thursday.

“We’re going to have to do things that were frankly unthinkable a year ago,” Trump told Yahoo news reports in an interview.

There are good reasons why they are frankly unthinkable, and none of those good reasons have changed.

“Some people are going to be upset about it, but I think that now everybody is feeling that security is going to rule.”

What security? And what does a person’s religion have to do with security anyway?

He said he would consider warrantless searches of Muslims and increased surveillance of mosques. “Certain things will be done that we never thought would happen in this country in terms of information and learning about the enemy.”

A while ago (back when I was “guest post”) I wrote this piece, The F word. The F word in question was Fascism. Please don’t go there America.
