It hasn't been discussed enough. I mean none of the countries in the ban has had a national commit a terror attack in America for a long time. Much longer than the 9/11 Hijackers came from Saudi Arabia and UAE and one from Egypt. This is really ticking me off - it feels like a brazen move that shows Trump is way more about himself than this country.

I agree but let's give credit where credit is due. People are seeing this action in the same light as you. Its a moronic move that is being excused away by the right arguing a straw man.

I thought if you seek (political) asylum from a particular (totalitarian) country then you don't go back there once you get the GC...

DHS confirms that holders of valid Green Cards are subject to ban:

http://www.reuters.com/article/us-usa-trump-immigration-greencard-idUSKBN15C0KX

Also reportedly denied access to counsel by DHS.

Edit: Now they're saying that green card holders will be cleared on a case by case basis, criteria unknown. This totally looks like a well oiled machine and not a shitshow that nobody thought out.

He totally hired all the best people and best lawyers to write good words and vet these EOs prior to his good brain signature.

Hahaha, but seriously: he definitely hired the best photographers to take pictures on the signings. Good thing he makes sure to sit in front of giant MoH mock-up. That will make the military happy, along with his habit of saluting uniformed soldiers and officers when he walks by them (I'll let the fluffers figure out what is wrong with that).

Maybe those businesses should have hired Americans in the first place.

Maybe Americans should stop enrolling in Bible Colleges and start going back to real school and be competitive with this high end CE, SE, EE, Biotech and what-not jobs.

Start big, then back off slowly. By taking this big and promised first step President Trump can then negotiate to more feasible middle ground.

No, he's merely pleasing the dumbest, most intractable of his supporters, like yourself. Which makes you kinda right: this way, after he is legally forced to back off, he can drown out the fact of his illegal misguided nonsense by yelling about awesome it was for him to sign the initial orders and how great those orders and how he greatly fixed those illegals and jobs and walls and jobs.

1 of the 2 Iraqi guys held at JFK, without being able to see his lawyer, was released. There are supposedly 11 others being detained, no details are available.

If you've encountered a post of mine before in P/N you problary know that I am not a Trump fan!!!!
But.
I have to say that I understand this move. Europe has taken in more that it can chew on right now and we are going to have to deal somehow.
I know this is getting sold as some anti-terror, cause that is where the ticket sales is at but it is a SHAM.
What is true is that integration of *all* these refugees is a mountain so steep that we need scientists to come up with anti-grav devices to climb it.
Sweden is a fukfest right now.
On the other hand, US is allready accustomed with ghettos where police and paramedics dont dare enter so I dont know how foreign this concept is to you guys.

The US is not accustomed to ghettos where police and paramedics don't dare enter. What gave you this ridiculous idea? Where do you live where you think this is the case?

They said the same about the Irish, about the Italians, about the Chinese, and about Mexicans, so you'll have to forgive me if I don't buy your mountain of bullshit.

Have no fear though, trump is full of policies to help pussies like you feel safe from people you are scared of.

.

Europe let in over a million refugees in 2015. Didn't see numbers for 2016.

We were letting in around 100K a year into the USA. So the situations are not comparable and integration into the US would be painless.

What a short-sighted and ego driven decision. Absolutely no consideration for the legit people that are affected by this. I would not be surprised to see some homegrown terrorism. It doesn't take much to push someone over the edge.

So why shut the door? Is it really terror? Or to feed "The Movement"?

so when Trump's pen here results in home-grown terrorist attacks from native-born US citizens, will Trumpsters interpret that as him failing in his promise to keep them safe, or will they blame liberals for not being hard enough against immigrants?

It's a good first step to reducing the number of legal immigrants into the United States. It's not the 1800's or 1900's anymore. Times change.
>>

The hate (and anger and fear) against immigrants (whether they are legal or not) stems simply from the utter and absolutely deplorable anger/hate by people in the US about their own shitty lives, jobs gone, low wages etc. The old spiel of "blaming someone", which is exploited by con men politicians ever since ancient times.

Problem: The refugees (and also immigrants) are NOT who took jobs away...or made the middle-class/poor live's shitty. THIS plays only a rather minor part on top of what is actually the problem. Due to the infinite ignorance of many American homeschooled retards, they voted exactly *those* in power who are in fact responsible for their shitty lives, anger and bitterness.

The big-wig elites who are in power right now, if it wasn't for THEIR decisions to move jobs away and exploit avg. people at all costs, for THEIR profit....if they wouldn't have done that, the people in America would welcome immigrants (like they did in the past when this was still actually America). No one would give a shit about immigrant workers.

You know:
A) America actually doesn't really have a refugee problem
B) Last time I was there, America was a really fucking big country, and I really mean fucking big...so big that even 100,000s of "refugees" (which don't even happen in the US) can impossible pose a major problem. Europe is an entire different story
C) Is this general ban not just stupid/idiotic because of reasons we all know anyway, it's also insulting to any other Western country (Europe) which accepts them. It simply makes the US look like a giant, arrogant asshole.
D) The idea that banning Muslims from immigrating and banning refugees would aid fight terrorism is hideously idiotic. It's so idiotic that the only reason for this CAN only be that it's "appealing" for the ignoramuses who support Trump..rather than *actually* do anything in terms of preventing terrorism. (But of course we know that too already). It's a "PR stunt" if you will, not unlike the stupid wall.

You miss the obvious answer: when Trump's policies incite attacks against the US they will say that's proof he was right.

Attacks under Obama? Trump was right, we should have been tougher.

Attacks under Trump? Trump was right, look at this threat.

There will be no questioning if they were wrong.

This. Cause that is really what could happen isnt it? The very demographics he has rallied in his campaign, this "the movement", is just the sort of people who could do stuff like that.. "the revolution is coming" bs. *bombs some mosque*

Also, I dont have the numbers, how many terror attacks have the US had from refugees?

No, I just don't scare easily. I'm certainly not afraid of people that sound, look, or are from a different place than I am. I'm also not ignorant of history and I've seen how well this country is able to integrate many people from all walks of life. I'm also able to remember what kind of Americans hindered that integration of the past and how it relates now.

But if talking about my penis size brings comfort to you so you don't have to address uncomfortable truths, then by all means, continue

Disclaimer, not an US citizen. I said I understood the move based on our situation in Europe. Someone else pointed out that it is very different scenrios. Point taken.
We have areas in europe where Police and Medics dont dare enter. Sharia law governs there. I've lived next to this for 20 years, I know it on my own person and family.
We know that taking refugees in from Syria they auto pilots to these areas from day-1, lost to us for integration.

I do scare. I scare not from refugees but I scare from my fellow citizens that I see and feel moving right. I see the fences, I see the trenches and I see conflict coming if we dont do *something*.
On a positive side, you know what refugees that DO integrate well? The young women. Who woulda thunk.

Oh by the way, I had to hang a insanely heavy plasma on the wall yesterday
My wife is unfortunately not very strong. I went to the bar in town (no kidding), and "Hassan" from Morocco helped me. He did NOT BLOW HIMSELF UP. Would you believe it? True story!
(I shook his hands and gave him €5 )
