Muslim ban already having effect

"David Duke/Westboro Baptist/Nazi/Racist/Sexist"- you guys are seriously dumb when it comes to the issue of immigration. Facts and reason don't matter to any of you. All you've got are the same tired insults.
It's not a coincidence that anti-immigration nationalism and racism are very commonly associated. The arguments are always strikingly similar, no matter what time period they are made, and always supposedly with the best intentions.
 
I'm convinced that you are a true believer, but you are no more convincing than the racist fucks who you so dislike being lumped in with.
 
Department Of Homeland Security Response To Recent Litigation
Release Date: January 29, 2017
For Immediate Release
Office of the Press Secretary
Contact: 202-282-8010

WASHINGTON – The Department of Homeland Security will continue to enforce all of President Trump’s Executive Orders in a manner that ensures the safety and security of the American people. President Trump’s Executive Orders remain in place—prohibited travel will remain prohibited, and the U.S. government retains its right to revoke visas at any time if required for national security or public safety. President Trump’s Executive Order affects a minor portion of international travelers, and is a first step towards reestablishing control over America's borders and national security.

Approximately 80 million international travelers enter the United States every year. Yesterday, less than one percent of the more than 325,000 international air travelers who arrive every day were inconvenienced while enhanced security measures were implemented. These individuals went through enhanced security screenings and are being processed for entry to the United States, consistent with our immigration laws and judicial orders.

The Department of Homeland Security will faithfully execute the immigration laws, and we will treat all of those we encounter humanely and with professionalism. No foreign national in a foreign land, without ties to the United States, has any unfettered right to demand entry into the United States or to demand immigration benefits in the United States.

The Department of Homeland Security will comply with judicial orders; faithfully enforce our immigration laws, and implement President Trump’s Executive Orders to ensure that those entering the United States do not pose a threat to our country or the American people.

Do you not see any unintended consequences from this action? We have people who have PhDs who have lived here legally for many years and never been convicted or charged with a crime who can't re-enter the country. We have children waiting to be adopted who will be American citizens who are unable to come here right now. There's just no way this thing was thought through fully or very well. Do you not at least acknowledge this?
 
Just heard a trump supporter on NPR say that religious liberty was just something new that "has come up with all this PC culture".

Sure, and hopefully these issues you're mentioning will be fixed promptly.

Says facts don't matter to people with opposing viewpoints. Believes President Trump and his administration. Wonders why people think he full of shit.
 
RJ thinks we have a Muslim ban. Does RJ know that most Muslims do not live in the Middle East?
 
Two weekends. Two large worldwide protests.

RJ thinks we have a Muslim ban. Does RJ know that most Muslims do not live in the Middle East?

 
Is there a primer on the facts here? Looki g for a real news take on what is actually happening.
 
Giuliani is not part of the administration. Muslims are still welcome in the country, just not those from the countries listed. Indonesia has over 200 million Muslims. Still welcome.

So you're saying Trump isn't delivering on his promise to ban Muslims?
 
Giuliani is not part of the administration. Muslims are still welcome in the country, just not those from the countries listed. Indonesia has over 200 million Muslims. Still welcome.

And this isn't accurate either. It is a 90-120 day pause. It's administration was totally butchered and was carried out in the most ridiculous fashion possible. But it isn't a ban for even these seven countries.
 
Do you really believe (a) he is saying he is going to ban Muslims with this order, and (b) he could ever do this legally?

I believe he's trying to set the stage for a Muslim ban in order to do what he was voted into office to do.
