US Proposing to Require Review of five Years of Social Media for Foreign Tourists Entering the US

[martybegan]

I simply asked if you agree w/what they want to do here in this instance.

Not the extremism of "do you disagree w/all of Trump's policies." #SMH

I gave you my answer. You want to put me in a "gotcha" situation like any other lefty **** would.

You think foreigners are going to do this to take a trip to Vegas or Disney World?
Would you?

How many foreigners go to China as Tourists, where the government probably does the same thing?

Trump proposes a lot of things. How did that audit of Ft Knox go?

We need to audit the printing presses. And not with an auto pen.

Who knows. We are not China. China is authoritarian dictatorship. I certainly am not going there for tourism.
Answer the question. Would you do this just to go to Vegas?

I don't have to as I'm a US citizen.

People do it to see China.

I doubt it will be applied to day of arrival tourists.

Again, this is a PROPOSED RULE, that you are harping on like it's already happening.

Panick-tard.

Really? I expected better from you Marty.

US could ask tourists for five-year social media history before entry

The plan would affect people from countries, including the UK, who can fill out a form in lieu of a visa.

There is the word "could" in one of the very articles you linked, you ******* moron.

I was in China a few years ago and subject to no such search.

Yes, because its in the reporting period.

Why are you so angry and insulting about this?

We have FIFA coming up. This will hammer FIFA tourism.

That you know about.

Did you have to get a Visa ahead of time to go there?

How long ahead of time.

The Chinese government doesn't have to tell its OWN PEOPLE what it does, you think it would tell Gwai?

 

[martybegan]

Yes, because its in the reporting period.

I am pointing out that you are acting like this is already happening, and you misrepresent who it will apply to.

This won't do jack shit to FIFA attendance, Football fans would strangle their own brother to get tickets to their own Countries world cup games.

If you want to go to China, you have to stop by an embassy or a consulate and get a Visa. I don't know about social media though.

There are going to be some games about an hour from here, but I can't be bothered with the traffic (and the expense) (and I don't like soccer).

I didn't have to do that. I went to a place here in town that specializes in assisting with visas. They gave me all the paperwork to fill out and then submitted it on my behalf. Took about a month if I recall.

Convenient. Last time I went I had to wait in line for hours and hours in NYC.

That still means they had your info for a month....

Didn't wake up on the bright side of the bed this morning?

 

[BackAgain]

Same


I am not disagreeing for personal visas. This is about simple tourism. And its not a babble. Its a government rule thats been put up for public comment.

I don’t want even a tourist to visit here if they have a history of disparaging us. A tourist can be a terrorist, too. Why grant them any right to be here if they hate us?

Last time my relatives and chinese nationals got together we were busily killing them.
