The girls barely even got their robot in time; people were afraid of extremists using the technology, which really isn't that adavanced, to do something bad with it.

Their robot was allowed to compete in the FIRST competition, but it's an absolute shame they can't come due to a bunch of people feeling scared for no reason.

I hope having girls seeking more opportunity, especially from a nation where women lack empowerment, getting barred entry into the US makes you sleep better at night.

What a disgrace.

And you used to give Diam a hard time with his stories of the American Citizens who were hurt or killed by illegal aliens. rolleyes

Now you do the same with hard luck stories of aliens.

What I find funny is that if these people would've just let Trump have his 90 day travel ban in the first place, it would be over by now (or close to it) and these law abiding citizens would have no problem getting in here helping us move that much closer to Skynet.

so people should just "let" oppression happen to them?

IT'S NOT OPPRESSION! IT'S CAUTION!

And I'm sure you've heard by now all the reasonable addendums the supreme court added to the travel ban even from those countries, who the hell can't get behind that?

This was a temporary okay. It's most likely going to get taken up in the next docket, and it'll be closely scrutinized.

Even you must admit this is showing the terroists have won. Bin Laden wanted policies like this to exist. These quells more resentment against America.

if it's truly caution then they definitely picked the wrong countries to ban.

but we've had this convo before so i don't think any minds will be changed.

Their leader is now pixie dust.
Their Caliphate is now a transgender bathhouse.

This country is more open than it has ever been in it's history, do you not know how hard it was to get in here when you had to go through Ellis Island? I'm sure you do, but the difference is, back then, everyone wanted to come here to become American, now, most want to come here to become American, but (and we've had this conversation before) there are those who do not.

Those people are the ones we have to be cautious of.

I dunno about wrong countries to ban, if you're talking about Saudi Arabia, I agree, they should be on there too. Nothing stopping whoever they're funding from traveling from their country.

I agree with the SCOTUS's decision here. Trump has the right as president and the court had to decide on that for now, so they allowed but limited it. So now the stories get made, Trump get's his 90 day's and by they time they have a hearing in September his 90 days will be up. SCOTUS can then simply point to him having plenty of time to review and change procedures, then lift this thing. Trump got to keep his promise to his base, SCOTUS makes this go away, and everybody wins.

Do you just leave the doors to your new house unlocked, and allow in just anyone who wants to come in?

I bet that answer is a big, fat, no.

Why? Because you don't know who might come in, and what danger they might present to your family and loved ones.

However some people seem to think that we should have no standards for who we allow into our country.

It just makes no sense to me.

Yes, we should allow immigration to our country. No, we should not allow just anyone in. We need to be able to have some ability to determine who might present a danger to our country, friends, family, and neighbors.

It's not being "mean", or "racist" ..... it's being cautious and careful in a dangerous world.

That's the difference between me and you 40, I am open minded. I've like a few things Trump has done. If he could get past his self created BS, focus only on the middle class (not his lame campaign promises, GOP agenda, Twitter, the next election, etc.), and find middle ground then I would give him very little grief.

But the man is pitiful. He acts like a child nobody likes trying to fit in, throws tantrum(p)s, is a sexist bigot, cries like a baby, etc. etc. etc.

Nope can't like him full time, just some things he's done pass for decent... most don't.

Perhaps my clan would have sneaked in along the Mexican border and we would still be Scottish today instead of Americans.

Perhaps the Plague and Typhus we carried with us from Scotland would have killed all the rest of the people coming in.

Luckily our American predecessors had rules and laws to protect America from such things, like we do once again today. thumbsup

We had an immigration system when my grandfather came over from England as a 16 year old orphan. He came over to work on the railroad ... a job few people wanted to do. He worked up to engineer.

He followed the system in place, and obeyed the law. He didn't sneak in when no one was looking, and work under the table.

Back to my post, that you replied to ...... I still lock my doors when I leave my house. I don't let just anyone in. I doubt you do either.

I want a healthy immigration system. It has to have controls, so we know who is coming in, and we can make sure that are paid legally. It makes no sense to let just anyone sneak in, and do whatever they want.

This tired argument again?

This isn't locking your doors to prevent crap criminals from coming in.

We are talking about banning entire people based off the actions of a few, something YOU claimed you don't do in threads before.

But now you support it? Why, cause they're Muslim?

We have ALWAYS had a standard for who and who isn't legally allowed in this country. And that HASNT changed.

In one breath you say we should let immigrants in, yet here you are supporting a blanket ban on countries who don't even have direct issues in America?

How is that not hypocritical?

I never said it's racist, and that shows how ignorant you are because Islam isn't a race.

As I told Ted before, MAYBE I'd understand if we were targeting nations that had immigrants start massive crap here. But we aren't even doing that.

And again with the fake concern and outrage about family and loved ones?

If you honestly gave a damn about any of that, you'd argue for gun control as our own people are more respoibel for our family and loved ones death than any Muslim immigrant in how many years? You'd argue for policies that helped your family and loved ones keep benefits and jobs that helps bring violence down.

But you don't do any of that. You're actively supporting fighting hate with hate.

And if that's what you support, fighting hate with hate, that's you're right bro.

Just don't call yourself a Christian. Cause then that would make you a fraud.

My grandmother is a devout Christian. She knows how I feel, but she always told me that part of being Christian is helping those in need when they need it the most.

And yet the majority of "Christians" on this board display none of that. And that includes you.

This ban is nothing but a feel good solution to make a Bunch of hate and fear mongering bigots happy.

I don't care if this targeting Muslim, Christian, Hindi, Buddhist, or any other religious country.

It's wrong. And I will NEVER support this.

I get ya Ytown but I leave my house unlocked all the time, my german shepherds hard to sneak past. Anybody getting to me or mine would have to kill the dogs, and if they are going to do that they are coming in anyway.
