Trump is right, 1952 McCarran-Walter Act allows us to keep out immigrants we can’t trust
The Coach's Team ^ | 8/16/16 | Kevin "Coach" Collins

Just a little bit of research shows that as usual Donald Trump is right and the lazy hate filled media is wrong. Trump’s call for “extreme” vetting falls squarely within the options outlined by the 1952 Immigration and Nationality revise Act commonly known as the McCarran-Walter Act, which was passed to strengthen America’s ability to protect ourselves in matters relating to immigration, naturalization, and nationality.

H.R. 13342; Pub.L. 414; 182 Stat. 66. 82nd Congress; June 27, 1952.

SUMMARY

“Otherwise known as the McCarran-Walter Act, the Immigration and Nationality Act of 1952 was meant to exclude certain immigrants from immigrating to America, post-World War II and in the early Cold War. The McCarran-Walter Act moved away from excluding immigrants based simply upon country of origin. Instead it focused upon denying immigrants who were unlawful, immoral, diseased in any way, politically radical etc. and accepting those who were willing and able to assimilate into the US economic, social, and political structures, which restructured how immigration law was handled. Furthermore, the most notable exclusions were anyone even remotely associated with communism which in the early days of the Cold War was seen as a serious threat to US democracy. The main objective of this was to block any spread of communism from outside post WWII countries, as well as deny any enemies of the US during WWII such as Japan and favor “good Asian” countries such as China. The McCarran-Walter Act was a strong reinforcement in immigration selection, which was labeled the best way to preserve national security and national interests. President Truman originally vetoed the law, deeming it discriminatory; however there was enough support in Congress for the law to pass.”

Radical Islamists who profess allegiance to Sharia Law, which forbids assimilation, above the US Constitution can and should be excluded from entry into our country. They are exactly the type of people the McCarren-Walter Act was written to exclude from our nation. A simple examination of what it means to be adherent to Sharia Law reveals that those who practice it will never become part of our melting pot – they hate assimilation – they will never follow our laws regarding fair treatment of all Americans and will never yield to our political system. True to the Democrat nature of always being on the wrong side of issues, Democrat Harry Truman vetoed this law but was overridden and it was forced into law by Republicans who wanted security and safety for all Americans.

..... Kahn (and a handful of Moslems) appear to be civilized......but as Freeper insightfully Lent opined...there’s jihad in his soul...

Keep in mind, Muslims lie easily.......illustrates their dedication to killing Christians. ..... the lies get real good if it means killing Christians.


DUPING THE POPE Pope Francis is urging they be taken in and aided.....the Pope took in a family of Muslim refugees into the Papal residence.....and spoke of his being transformed by them. Little does he know.

Muslims have a particular hatred for Catholics. Hate-filled Muslims are saving their most vicious attacks for the Pope: the Muslim plan is to hang him in public from the Papal balcony and turn the Vatican into a mosque.....which means destroying 2000 years of priceless works of art.

News reports say there are scores of Muslims surrounding the Vatican....lying-in-wait in Muslim prayer rooms.

THE MUSLIM DOCTRINE OF TAQIYYA...ITS OKAY TO LIE TO AN INFIDEL...For those with a discerning eye, taqiyya is all around us. (a) Muslim refugees have pretended to convert to Christianity; (2) an Islamic gunman gained entrance inside a church by feigning interest in Christian prayers.

Examples abound on a daily basis.

In Turkey, to get close enough to a Christian pastor to assassinate him, a group of Muslims including three women feigned interest in Christianity, attended his church for over a year, and even participated in baptism ceremonies.

Said the pastor: “These Muslim people had infiltrated our church and collected information about me, my family and the church and were preparing an attack against us. Two of them attended our church for over a year and they acted like family.”

On Islamic terrorism, the agnostic writer, Martin Amis, wrote that he suspected “there exists on our planet a kind of human being who will become a Muslim in order to pursue suicide-mass murder”, and added: “I will never forget the look on the gatekeeper’s face, at the Dome of the Rock in Jerusalem, when I suggested, perhaps rather airily, that he skip some calendric prohibition and let me in anyway. His expression, previously cordial and cold, became a mask; and the mask was saying that killing me, my wife, and my children was something for which he now had warrant.”
NOTE-—The most famous Islamic site in Jerusalem is the Dome of the Rock (Qubbat as-Sakhrah). An impressive and beautiful edifice, the Dome of the Rock can be seen from all over Jerusalem. It is the crowning glory of the Haram es-Sharif (”Noble Sanctuary”), or Temple Mount.

All the laws we need are already on the books. We just require a President that will enforce the law.

We need a permanent muslim ban!!!!

Also label the muslim Brotherhood as a subversive organization. Close all muslim Brotherhood mosques, and shut down the mSA, CAiR, etc.

Ban the hijab if at all possible constitutionally.

Restrict the flow of Third World immigrants with national quotas.

Stop the madness started by Dead (Ted) Kennedy in the 1960s!!!!

One correction: The McCarren--Walter Bill was supported by the patriots in both parties--as well as by me, when I was still too young to vote. Both of the sponsors were patriotic Democrats, in an era when most Americans in both parties still put America First.

That former, very logical immigration policy, reminds one of how far we have fallen in our politics, when not only almost all Democrats, but so many "whipped cur" Republicans think that we owe some sort of mystic duty to change our culture to appease foreign wish lists.

Trump is our hope. That he has stepped into the breach should be answered both by our resolve to see him elected, and by our Prayers of Thanksgiving that he has come forward.

We have two types of Muslims. Terrorists and cheerleaders. That will be my belief until THEY prove me wrong.

From The Article:

They are exactly the type of people the McCarren-Walter Act was written to exclude from our nation.

Bears Repeating!

All Trump has to ask is “How many Germans and Japanese were admitted to the US between 1941-1945?” This was during FDR and Truman’s reign of liberalism. If we are at war with terrorists, we should certainly retain the right to refuse entry to them. I read the Constitution way back when and couldn’t find the law that says foreigners have a right to come in. No country on the planet is as liberal as we are on immigration.

Trymp is so right about most every thing.

Just because all of the Hillary whore mongers says he does not have a chance to win should be ignored. if they really think he has no chance why are they wasting so much time trying to sabbotage him?

A third party ticket would assure a hillary win, don`t be supprised if that happens.

No one is going to spend the money on a third party campaign that don`t have a chance to win unless they just want to insure a hillary win by taking as many trump votes as possible.

Keep in mind, Muslims lie easily...

I heard somewhere that many of them can pass a lie detector test, because they don't believe that it is wrong to lie to the Infidel.

If the media types would just bother to read the writings of Xenophon they will find that he was a quite likable guy. But when your surrounded by people hell bent on killing you for money your only choice is to kill them back better.

During the Cold War, did we allow unrestricted immigration from the USSR? To my way of thinking, that ends the discussion!

Well we sure didn’t allow Jews from Europe in the late 1930s.

Khan was (and is) carrying out civilization jihad:

“The process of settlement is a ‘Civilization-Jihadist Process’ with all the word means. The Ikhwan [Muslim Brotherhood] must understand that their work in America is a kind of grand jihad in eliminating and destroying the Western civilization from within and ‘sabotaging’ its miserable house by their hands and the hands of the believers…”

http://www.clarionproject.org/Muslim_Brotherhood_Explanatory_Memorandum

Note that sabotage by “their hands” included the hands of the liberal Methodist Hillary Rodham clinton, who invited Khan to speak at her convention, soon before she gave her “acceptance” speech.

Note the horrible effect the Khan speech had on all of us. I hope that that effect is over!!!!
