It wasn’t a Muslim ban. If it were he would have banned countries like Saudi Arabia.

You ignore the people killed by illegals as fentanyl because your side loves it when Americans are murdered. Yeah just sod what leftists do best take away peoples rights.

killed by illegals as fentanyl

Doesn't matter whether it was or not, you know what I'm talking about. End of.

So, when an individual takes drugs willingly, someone is trying to kill them?

But when someone points a gun at them and shoots.... "your side loves it when Americans are murdered".

Good job. You just killed Vegas.

I guess organized crime will have to go back to numbers, then.

Im not going to agree with letting unvetted potential terrorists in our country because some of them might play five dollar blackjack at Harrah's before they start shooting ICE Agents.

A "pause"?

Think about it, $1 trillion, that's $1,000,000,000,000 a year. Divide that by 365, that's $2.7 billion a day.

The US national debt is at $38 trillion. You'll just make that billions worse every day.

How many Americans should die to avoid that pause?

Do you think a person in Europe who is calling for the death of Americans is going to have social media that says this, and provide it to the US?

All it requires is that someone provide an email that isn't connected to their social media. How would the US find out? Just say "no social media".

That's why we need a pause to figure out how to vett visitors.

 

[Correll]

How would you even do that

ai search almost certainly.

Keywords or phrases like "america racist" or "get a apartment/job".

 

[sparky]

There is nothing proprietary about the internets ,ergo no privacy is violated

~S~

 

[martybegan]

Citizens of those countries will have to provide the data for the Visa Waiver Program, that's the controversy.

Oh. Right.

marty.

I forgot he doesn't read. My bad.

Again, a PROPOSED rule. lets see if it actually gets implemented.

 

[Zincwarrior]

lol, sure pal. Proof?

Do you have no concept of of the tourism business?

 

[dudmuck]

I'm not pro-mass immigration. However this isn't what we're talking about.

Trump wants to protect the US.

How's he done it?

His "Muslim ban" that banned a total of ZERO countries that had participants on 9/11.

He's given a drug trafficker a pardon.

How many British people do you think are going into the US on a 90 day visa free and then murdering people? The US has enough murderers (15,000 gun murders a year) to not worry about British tourists.

papers please

‘The whole thing disgusts me’: Australians ditch US travel as new rules require social media to be declared​

Visitors will have to reveal at the border all social media activity over the past five years

Visitors will have to reveal at the border all social media activity over the past five years

Australians are abandoning travel to the US, and boycotting World Cup matches there next year, as the Trump administration flags new rules that will soon require visitors to hand over their social media history when applying to enter the country.

In a notice published on Tuesday, the US Customs and Border Protection agency (CBP) said tourists to the US from 42 countries including Australia would have to reveal all of their social media activity over the past five years under the new rules, which are up for a 60-day review before coming into effect. It would be a part of the application for a visa waiver under the ESTA application process.

The rules were drawn up in response to an executive order made by Donald Trump on the day of his inauguration in January which purported to “protect” the US from visitors, instructing that visas should be denied to anyone with “hostile attitudes toward its citizens, culture, government, institutions, or founding principles”.

Australian tourists have described the US mandate to sweep social media posts, as well as collect comprehensive “high-value data” on family members such as phone numbers, dates of birth and residencies, as “horrifying” and “draconian”.

But travel data reveals Australians were already avoiding the US before the detailed rules were announced. They have changed travel plans to avoid entering the US and even moved reunions with family members to other countries.

In 2019, the last free year of travel before the Covid-19 pandemic shuttered borders across the world, more than 100,000 Australians would regularly arrive in the US each month. That figure is now consistently in the low 50,000s, and below 50,000 for the first time last month, figures from the US department of commerce show.

Funny shit hearing from the pro China party. You know what China do to those speak out in favor of Tibet? If not ask Brad Pitt, Richard Gere, and Harrison Ford.

You do if you are one of the millions of people who are employed in the tourism industry.

Dont forget the emergency services industry. With fewer anti-American "tourists" coming in, there will be fewer terrorist attacks.

We'll still have plenty of tourists.
