    What instrument does he/she play? Depending on the answer, he/she may be a terrorist.

    There are exceptions that can be requested.

    It is a ban from seven countries, not based on religion. There are also exceptions for certain individuals.

    It is not the first time this has been done. It is just the first time that anyone here has cared about it.

    again, you are wrong. Rudy Giuliani, the architect of this ban, went on record on VIDEO stating Trump asked him point blank how to legally ban muslims from entering the US. You simply cannot dispute that.

    I can if it is all people, minus the exceptions, from these countries. It is a pretty simple concept.

    No one said it's not a fact. It's apologist.

    So are you telling me when a person tries to board a flight or go through customs they are not asked for a passport but instead what religion they are?

    the intent behind it is clear, and has been stated by the person who constructed the ban. FACT.

    You didn't answer the question.

    If the people are being asked their religion it is an issue. But if their passports are the deciding document then there is not.

    If the people are being asked their religion it is an issue. But if their passports are the deciding document then there is not.

    it's the wrong question. during the ban, NO ONE was being permitted to board a flight from any of those countries. the people being detained who were already en route were asked their religion, and their thoughts on Trump as president.

    and, the ban document reads that exceptions will be made for those being persecuted for their religion, but ONLY IF THEIR RELIGION IS A MINORITY IN THEIR REGION. what do you think that means? that means no exceptions will be made for muslims, only christians.

    come on, man, you can't seriously believe this shit the right is feeding you?

    Right is feeding me? Sorry bud, I don't watch TV.

    I fully support a ban, based on home country. It is long overdue and hasn't gone far enough.

    But I am also the guy that would eliminate all foreign aid and bring our troops home. All of them.

    I see you didn't address any of the other content that proved you were incorrect.

    Last weeks episode of This American Life is pretty heartbreaking.

    This week we document what happened when the President’s executive order went into effect temporarily banning travel from seven countries, and we talk about the way it was implemented. A major policy change thrown into the world like a fastball with no warning. It’s hard not to ask: “What just happened? What was that all about?”

    If/when they argue as to whether the EO is constitutional or not, an AG will argue that discriminating based on religion is unconstitutional.

    Well maybe they can revise it to include SA and other terrorist breeding grounds. Up the count to 40 or so.
