Trump...

He looks like an Asian man who had his face dipped in dangerous acid.

Creepy...

so i gotta say i voted trump, and yes i am gay too before i start my take on this.

1. If this was a "muslim ban" he would of ban the other 45 different countries in the world with muslim majority populations, the roll out for this was terrible.
2. He took Obama's list of most dangerous countries and took it a step further than him, but nobody made a big deal about this because hes a "democrat" "FOR THE PEOPLE!!!"
3. This isn't a permanent ban... it is a temp 90 day stop period until the government gets a new plan/way to check people coming in and out of these countries to make sure our country stays safe.
4. Take a lesson out of Europe's books, they let anyone and everyone come in and it's looking more like the middle east, women being raped, bombs and shootings everyday by migrants. It's fine if people come and would like to fit into the european style of living, but do not come to Europe/United States and expect us to conform to your way of life because it is a PRIVILAGE to come here.

this is my take.. i'll be waiting for the I'M RACIST people when muslim isn't even a race

Well said. It'll all go over the heads of some though, people who certainly don't seem to understand the difference between religion and race. They fixate on race and that is all they can see.

Fridays update on Trumps total arrogance and disrespect for the law...

SEATTLE — A U.S. judge on Friday temporarily blocked President Donald Trump’s ban on travelers and immigrants from seven predominantly Muslim countries after Washington state and Minnesota urged a nationwide hold on the executive order that has launched legal battles across the country.
U.S. District Judge James Robart in Seattle ruled that the states had standing to challenge Trump’s order, which government lawyers disputed, and said they showed their case was likely to succeed.
“The state has met its burden in demonstrating immediate and irreparable injury,” Robart said.
Trump’s order last week sparked protests nationwide and confusion at airports as some travelers were detained. The White House has argued that it will make the country safer.
Washington became the first state to sue over the order that temporarily bans travel for people from Iran, Iraq, Syria, Sudan, Somalia, Libya and Yemen and suspends the U.S. refugee program.
State Attorney General Bob Ferguson said this week that the travel ban significantly harms residents and effectively mandates discrimination. Minnesota joined the suit two days later.
After the ruling, Ferguson said people from the affected countries can now apply for entry to the U.S.
“Judge Robart’s decision, effective immediately ... puts a halt to President Trump’s unconstitutional and unlawful executive order,” Ferguson said. “The law is a powerful thing — it has the ability to hold everybody accountable to it, and that includes the president of the United States.”
. . . .
Ferguson said the order is harming Washington residents, businesses and its education system. It will reduce tax revenue and impose significant costs on state agencies, as well as make it impossible for some state employees and students to travel, he said.
Washington-based businesses Amazon, Expedia and Microsoft support the state’s efforts to stop the order. They say it’s hurting their operations, too.
https://www.washingtonpost.com/national/religion/us…
The Seattle Judge went farther than the US District court judges in NYC, Alexandria, VA and Los Angeles, whose orders were read to apply to “green card”/legal residents of the US, who were banned from reentry to the US by Pres. Trump’s Executive Order. The Seattle Order reaches travel visas.
I’m sure the Court found it helpful to hear from Amazon, Expedia and Microsoft, about the damage the Executive Order does to Big Biz.
With each new temporary order entered by a US District Court, all of which orders are of temporary duration, and last only until a subsequent hearing (at which a temporary injunction may be issued, which would last for the duration of each lawsuit) the impact is that the ban against enforcement of Executive Order is lengthened. It only takes one such Order to negate enforcement of the EO.
To borrow a verb from the Rightie posters who reported judicial actions upon President Obama’s EO’s and policies, four separate US District Court judges have now “slammed” DJT’s first move on immigration.

To your credit, at least you're simply outright racist instead of trying to mask it / pretend not to be, like most people who post sentiments such as this.

Nothing to do with being racist or not - the 'sentiment' is simply a fact, name-calling doesn't change that. Besides Muslim is a RELIGION not a race and is practised by those of different skin colours. Amazed by how many on here confuse the two.

Would you prefer xenophobe, then? Regardless it's really not up for debate - the statement that "Decapitating people is something Muslims do, not Westerners" is sweeping, ignorant and xenophobic.

Out of interest, would you openly admit that you are Islamophobic?

If you want to get pedantic, we could say there is no such thing as race but if religion is not a race, why are the Jews classed as a race?
People try telling me that I'm a Jewess because of my ancestral heritage.

It's not something Muslims do, it's something terrorists do. Or are we simply being bigoted again?

Hacking away at the constitution is what he is doing, this is a theoretical depiction of this.

"I'm not a xenophobe, I'm just an islamophobe, you dun kno wut ur talking about".

Islamophobia is a form of xenophobia. You are a xenophobe. But I don't know why you're complaining; like I said at least you are an out and proud xenophobe rather than slithering about pretending NOT to be one, like so many feel inclined to do.

It was a compliment.

Claws. Not me slithering about.

Your 'compliments' are as charming as your snide innuendos and double standards.

Talking about double standards in a thread where you're basically claiming that 'snide innuendos' are a disgrace but Islamophobic posts are fine

I think you need a rest. Im tired for you. How do you keep up with your own nonsense.

I didn't invite your comments on my post so feel free to ignore. I'm tired of your nonsense too - so your point is what exactly.

And for the record disliking and questioning certain religious ideology and those that support it is neither a disgrace or a crime and cannot even be compared to hating 50% of the population for an accident of birth.

Youve put your opinions on a public forum, youve genuinely invited comments from anybody who might see them. Dont cry about not liking my replies. Post your opinions on a private group or a different forum if you want to choose who sees them.
I mean thats the basics of tibb in general, you should have learned this before your 800th post.
Youre right, islamophobia is not a crime, nor is racism or sexism technically. Im not accusing you of being a lawbreaker, im accusing you of being islamophobic. And asking you whether you think your hatred is less stupid than a common sexist or racist (it isnt)
'The sexism is way worse than islamophobia because 50% of people are women' argument is dumb, i think you know that though. If you dont where is the cut off?
Irrational hate of people is irrational hatred. Get over yourself.

Understand that defending sexist attitudes is sexist and therefore undermines your right to label others.

Youre the one saying irrational hatred to groups of people is fine under some circumstances, and that is the closest anybody has got to sexism in this thread.

There is nothing irrational about questioning sexist male attitudes and men that defend such attitudes.

Is is however pretty irrational to think that personal attacks will thwart such questioning. Most women are made of stronger stuff than that.
