    Well, you're the one who pointed out that Islamic extremism isn't the only problem in the US. Do you not believe the prevalence of absent fathers in African American communities is one of these problems, given what we know about its corrosive effect on a child's life chances?

    You appear to be suggesting that a President shouldn't be allowed to talk about one problem because there are other problems. This seems odd.

    That certainly wasn't my intention. But if you look at it that way, he's the one saying that Theresa May can't focus on terrorism, yet still be able to admonish him for his ridiculous tweets

    Louis Theroux did one of his documentary things about gun crime in the Afro-American community in Chicago. Or was it Detroit? Or somewhere else.

    No matter. It was deeply depressing.

    Provocative, certainly. But there's a kernel of truth to it.

    I was surprised to see that Milwaukee is rapidly becoming the murder capital of the USA. This seems odd. Everyone in Happy Days and Laverne and Shirley seemed so nice.

    Of course he should be allowed to talk about Islamic extremism, but he should do so without ever referring to Islam

    I suppose so. Although Chicago certainly seems proud of its criminal heritage.
