A Federal Judge Just Issued a Stay Against Donald Trump's "Muslim Ban
A federal judge in Brooklyn issued an emergency stay Saturday night against President Donald Trump's executive order banning immigration from certain predominantly Muslim countries, temporarily allowing people who have landed in the United States with a valid visa to remain. The ruling—a stunning defeat for Trump at the end of his first week in office http://www.motherjones.com/politics/...-federal-court

What is the Mother Jones? Is Mother Jones a credible source? Mother Jones would be considered more opinion than news. If you are looking for unbiased, straightforward news I do not think you would like to use Mother Jones as your source.

If you ignore the fact that one of the major parts of his flagship policy has just been halted, or the mass global protests against him, or Sean Spicer's disastrous first few days as Press Secretary, or pretty much everything else that's happened, yes

Jewish groups weren't thrilled with the timing of Trump's actions:
Washington (CNN)Many organizations that advocate for refugees slammed President Donald Trump's executive action Friday imposing "extreme vetting" on those fleeing to America, among them Jewish groups that took particular exception to the day on which he signed it: Holocaust Remembrance Day. "It's repulsive," said Mark Hetfield, president and CEO of the Hebrew Immigrant Aid Society, a faith-based nonprofit dedicated to resettling refugees in the United States. "I mean, the timing is incredibly offensive." "It was during the Holocaust that the world shamefully refused to give asylum to Jews and to others who were being murdered or about to be murdered in Nazi Germany," Hetfield added, referring to the US government's decision to turn away European refugees during World War II. http://www.cnn.com/2017/01/27/politics/trump-refuge…

So basically many on here are saying that the death of a few Americans via terrorist hands is preferable to banning Muslims from the country. Even an increase in that figure would be preferred to denying Muslims the right to stay. Nice. As long as it isn't their own of course.

If you wish to generalise threats in America then why aren't you campaigning against socially awkward white teenagers since they are more likely to kill people en masse in the US than a Muslim is. Domestic terrorism IE school shootings, attacks on abortion clinics, other types of mass shootings in public places are more common than a terrorist attack from a foreign extremist. Even when you look at the domestic attacks, the chances of being killed by a muslim terrorist are less than that than an upset white teenager that's mad at the world. The restrictions placed on Muslim countries will not prevent terrorism, it is just a placebo for the willfully ignorant. Attitudes like yours are part of the problem and I believe Trump's actions will likely lead to more than one major terrorist attack in the near future since he is aggravating the situation instead of taking meaningful actions to solve the problem once and for all. |

What are you trying to tell us? Are you saying we don't need to worry about terrorism, but instead concentrate on the weather?

As well as being an absolute racist twat, Donald trump is incredibly stupid as well. There have been ZERO Americans killed by citizens of any of the banned countries since 1975. People have been killed by Saudis and Egyptians but those countries aren't banned- I wonder why! Oh yeah, it's because Trump has business interests in those countries.

I think stringent checks on people from those countries is only sensible.However a ban is going to turn out to be pretty impractical and unworkable.For example there is a Conservative politician in Britain who was born in Iraq.What if he needs to go to the US on business?I think a ban will bring all kinds of problems.It will be a logistical nightmare.
I don't agree with his ban on refugees either.The US needs to be taking its fair share in along with every other country.Not doing so will just put more stress on Europe. He's not thinking things through.It's almost like giving a toddler the keys to your car. |
