The Danish People’s Party, an anti-immigration and nationalist group that supports the center-right government, says Denmark should halt immigration from Muslim countries, citing the threat of violence from Islamic extremists.
In an interview published Thursday, deputy party leader Soeren Espersen told the Berlingske newspaper that Muslim migrants should be barred from entering Denmark for four to six years because “we need a respite after recent terrorist attacks in Europe.”
Martin Henriksen, another senior party member, confirmed to Denmark’s TV2 that it was the group’s stance.
Critics including the opposition Social Democrats lashed out at the proposal, saying it wrongly conflates mainstream Muslims with Islamic extremists and compared it to Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump’s plan to ban Muslims from entering the U.S.
Government officials didn’t immediately comment on the proposal.

Anyone with common sense knows for the time being this is the answer. The reason the Dems don’t want to even admit there is a problem is they care more about building the voter base then protecting us American citizens. Until we get an administration who will even admit there is a problem and fix it we need the ban.

What do Muslims do as immigrants to the US? Answer: they come together in larger groups, buy up the old churches and turn them into mosques, get into local politics and take over, then institute Sharia Law. The Mayor of London, now a Muslim, literally requires men and women to be separated, just as in Islam’s Koran, and Londoners, apathetic and distracted, can’t be bothered to pay attention. It was intentional policy to turn Americans into mindless zombies, and it worked. Americans have “happily” handed over America to those quite willing to put the mindless zombies out of their misery. The Clinton Crime Family has no intention of protecting Americans from their gross mistakes. President Obama is a Muslim, and has done all he can for the dominant form of Islam, as well as signing Secret Deals with Iran. President Obama’s policies of letting millions of Muslims into the US will be continued and expanded by the Clinton Crime Family. You can remain asleep, or you can choose to wake up and do something.
