They can have it. No-go zones at every other subway stop. Gropers abound, at least on NY Eve. Nobody does anything about it. Spare me.
I should’ve said, “Who is banned from entering the US?”
It’s been about 10 years since I wanted to see Europe. The desire has been lost.
Considering current events, there is no Democrat run state that I wish to visit either.
Belgium, UK, Spain, Italy, Sweden and France all top US for covid deaths per million, but they are ok?

That’s alright. We have much more important things to focus on than taking money away from the U.S.A. with tourism between now and the election.
So...presenting my BLM membership card along wIth my passport won’t get me in?
