Human rights of all Americans

Newt Gingrich: Merely Visiting An ISIS Or Al Qaeda Website Should Be A Felony. He also wants to deport anyone "of Muslim background" who "believes in Shari'a". Together, these two policies would attack the human rights of all Americans.

Islamic law (Shari'a) denies basic human rights; it is as odious as the former US "Jim Crow" laws that denied equal rights to blacks, and the ban on abortions that many religious fanatics seek to impose. However, freedom of speech calls on us to respect people's right to advocate policies we disapprove of, even those. The first step in showing how wrong they are is to respect human rights ourselves.

However, foreigners don't have a human right to come to live in the US. I therefore advocate requiring all immigrants to affirm a commitment to human rights, as an audio/video recording that will be published, as part of getting permanent residency in the US.
