Activists in New York City unfurled a massive banner across the base of the Statue of Liberty on Tuesday. The message, while perhaps lacking the lyricism of Emma Lazarus’ iconic “New Colossus,” could hardly be misinterpreted.

“This was first conceived in response to what’s been called the ‘travel ban’ of the Trump administration, which I think flies in the face of the founding principals of the United States,” he told to me over the phone.

“I think the Statue of Liberty is our best symbol of the role that immigrants have played and continue to play every day in this country,” he added later.

David said that, while unfurling the banner at the statue’s base, his group was met with overwhelmingly positive feedback from tourists—many of whom appeared to be from outside the United States—visiting at the time..............................

Damn straight!

Yeap we're known as the melting pot of the world, and many of our ancestors were refugees fleeing from oppression. We have a lot of Americans in this country that have forgotten that.

Damn straight!

I prefer to "blame the right" for our warfare-State economic paradigm, in the name, allegedly, of national security and alleged, times of War.

Back then, lots of jobs here and no welfare system. Now the refugees start off on government subsidies. Some eventually get jobs, some don't. How many more poor and needy do we take in before we say enough is enough? We have more unemployed than jobs the way it is, and the safety nets are overloaded. Things have changed since the Statue was put into place.

Your a muslim...How can you not see?

See what? ......

That Trump and the people that follow him don't like you.

We don't like him?

The Jewish author of the article must certainly demand that Israel open its doors for anyone besides Jews. Unless he is a hypocrite...

I'm sure hoping these bleeding heart activists are the first casualties when the death cult does in America what's its already doing in Europe.

Wonder how long it will take these morons to realize the death cult is just that. A death cult that will kill you without a moments hesitation.

I'm sure the dead in Paris, Nice and San Bernardino would agree.

While grown up in NYC every year there was a school field trip to the statue of liberty and at the base is the inscription:
"Give me your tired, your poor, your huddled masses yearning to breathe free, the wretched refuse of your teeming shore. Send these, the homeless, tempest-tossed to me, I lift my lamp beside the golden door!"


That meant a lot to us as most were first or second generation Americans

Too bad it's just poetry.

Every Nation has immigration laws. Try to go to Canada illegally, or Mexico, or Russia, or Cuba. You will be thrown in jail, and the penalties are far more harsher in those nations, than here. Better yet, try to illegally enter a place like Turkey or Spain, or Saudi Arabia.

Lol, Trump likes all Americans and is working to make everyone's life better. He has already done more for minorities than Obama did.

Oh no, We are fully aware of "The Melting Pot"

You have to want to be a part of it.

If not, you don't get to be in the pot.

So people wearing Burkas, who believe in THE CHURCH AS STATE; who believe in beating their women, having sex with dogs, goats and children, should immediately be rejected.

Islam is incompatible with America's Principles of Individual Liberty and Religious Freedom.
They have their own countries to turn in to Islamic Shit Holes.
They are unwelcome here as much now, as they were unwelcome when Thomas Jefferson was president and called them "The Scourge of the World."
