As soon as they finish completely gutting the bill of rights.

Amendment I
Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.

It is even the first few words of the first one.

When their religion says it's OK to kill non-believers, I have a problem with that.

Most organized religions have passages about killing those who worship other gods being ok.

Hassan sentenced to death. Will it ever come to O's desk, and will he have the stones to sign it? Or will he Hickenlooper out?

Um, where the hell are you getting this? The Bible doesn't say it's okay in genera (there's a big difference between saying "make no graven images" and "go kill anyone who doesn't worship the way you do") and I don't recall any similar injunctions in Shinto-ism, Tao-ism, Buddhism. In fact, the Ten Commandments specifically say, "thou shalt not murder." Hell, even the Greek and Norse gods didn't say "go kill people that worship other gods".

You must not have understood the historical context of the Tanakh or the Bible. They were not open-ended directives.

Deuteronomy 17:12-Anyone who shows contempt for the judge or for the priest who stands ministering there to the LORD your God is to be put to death. You must purge the evil from Israel. Exodus 22:19-Whoever sacrifices to any god, except the Lord alone, shall be doomed. 2 Chronicles 15:12-They entered into a covenant to seek the Lord, the God of their fathers, with all their heart and soul; and everyone who would not seek the Lord, the God of Israel, was to be put to death, whether small or great, whether man or woman. Deuteronomy 13:7-If your own full brother, or your son or daughter, or your beloved wife, or you intimate friend, entices you secretly to serve other gods, whom you and your fathers have not known, gods of any other nations, near at hand or far away, from one end of the earth to the other: do not yield to him or listen to him, nor look with pity upon him, to spare or shield him, but kill him.

Islam is a religion. It's no more of a terrorist organization than Christianity (which also went on a murdering spree of everyone who wouldn't convert, a few times)

There's a distinct difference between "Christianity" and "Catholocism".

Dave, that's Old Testament historical context, not the path Christians are to take in their daily lives.

Deuteronomy 1:1
These are the words Moses spoke to all Israel in the wilderness east of the Jordan—that is, in the Arabah—opposite Suph, between Paran and Tophel, Laban, Hazeroth and Dizahab.

The Bible isn't just a bunch of words that can be thrown around in an argument. Context is everything.
