[Steve_McGarrett]

But this is the absolute first time the country of religious freedom, where people of a specific religion are banned from entering "the Land of the Free"!

I have learned that some people will honor the Constitution when it's convenient.

so? it is not the first time that the US has imposed barriers to people of this or that origin or this or that affliction from entering the USA-------a kindergarten mosque
education is enough

First Amendment-US Constitution

Enough said.

you think you made a point? I do not see it

 

[kiwiman127]

Ok, put on your thinking cap. It's not that difficult.

Learn something:

In the modern era, federal immigration law has generally cited religion to protect and welcome refugees facing religious discrimination by other countries — not to advance discrimination by the U.S. In 1980, for example, Congress passed an amendment to the Immigration and Nationality Act to protect some potential refugees facing "fear of persecution" on account of their "religion," among other factors.

And what of the folks your dear leader banned from coming to the country during the ebola epidemic, was he also being un-American, or was he trying to protect the American people against a known threat?

so you are comparing a religion to a disease?

while I agree religion is a mental disease, the comparison really doesn't hold up.

People with a communicable disease are banned from immigration to the USA for the sake of the health and welfare of the population of the United States. Persons
originating from lands in which the educational system justifies the murder of americans can be banned for the sake of the health and welfare of the population of
the United States

This left leaning media is playing everyone for a joke. and as we see it's working just as they plan.

Hillary and Bernie not only doesn't have to hold any DEBATES but they get a skate over everything they say because they are throwing you a bone everyday on what Trump says. what a said state our country become when the media can be the leaders of it

Democrats want to ban all Republicans from running for president, right?

Seems DemoRATS have a history of these sort of things!

This is just a reminder to all the liberal Democrats out there wringing their hands about Donald Trump’s latest comments. from Front Page: During the Iranian hostage crisis, Carter issued a number of orders to put pressure on Iran. Among these, Iranians were banned from entering the United States unless they oppose the Shiite Islamist regime or had a medical emergency. Here’s Jimmy “Hitler” Carter saying it back in 1980. Fourth, the Secretary of Treasury [State] and the Attorney General will invalidate all visas issued to Iranian citizens for future entry into the United States, effective today. We will not...

This one has hit the echo chamber.

If Carter allowed Christian Iranians in, but not Muslim Iranians....you'd have a point.

And historically, citizens took it upon themselves to run the Mormons out of the country and into what was Mexico at the time.

No.

Fox should ban Jaun from ever speaking on television.

Except no one really does that. But you keep trying to pretend that our disagreements with the Middle East are about religion and not politics... you keep doing that. YOu keep trying to turn a war against a few thousand nuts into a war against a religion.

here's the thing, WHEN ISIL is defeated, it will be defeated by other Muslims, not Westerners.

 

[Rexx Taylor]

Trump should of brought up Banning Dead People And Pets From Voting !

That's nowhere near what Trump is calling for.

You want ban all citizens of the nation of ISIS from entering, fine. lol

"the thing" ???? the fact that muslims engage in internecine violence and destruction does not mitigate the fact that they consider terrorism against
non muslims to be a holy endeavor.

ISIS has killed more Muslims than non-Muslims. Why would they do that if there is no difference one Muslim to the other?

 

[Bruce_T_Laney]

If you don't see the difference between prohibiting entry to citizens of a particular foreign country and banning entry, to include US citizens reentering the country, to all members of a particular religion, then you're a fucking idiot.

Wait, you're a fucking idiot anyway. Carry on.

As King of the Idiots of the world I would kindly ask you refrain from claiming the OP'er is from my group of people because even though I am a proud idiot the fact remains the OP'er is slower in the head than a Albino Chimp with Down Syndrome!

Also there is a big difference between denying Iranian visas versus denying visas from any country if the individual is Muslim but the OP'er will not understand that and double down on stupidity!

 

[NYcarbineer]

Why was the most damaging aspect of the Iraq war the civil war between Sunnis and Shiites,

if there is no difference between one Muslim and another?
