Last I heard our Constitution did not apply to foreign people outside the Borders of our Country and territories. IMHO if hes this wrong on such a fundamental Constitutional concept as Jurisdiction then he is the wrong person for this position.
Screw you, Giuliani. You ought to know after 9/11 what jihad means.
NEXT!!
How does the first amendment apply to people in foreign countries?
IF you exclude “mohamedans”, perhaps. But if you exclude certain countries of origin, No.
The Constitution is not a 72 virgins pact and foreign refugees have no, Nada, none 1st Amendment rights. Or 2nd Amendment rights. Etc, etc etc
It was my understanding Trump was speaking of the 100,000’s of refuges that we cannot correctly identify. Not an arab business man. Am I wrong??
I haven’t read this through but the title confuses me. How can a Muslim foreigner be granted 1st Amendment rights? Please tell me what I’m missing.
Also, I assumed, wrongly perhaps, that the ban is about people coming here to LIVE not businessmen who visit.
First thing I thought of.
There is no "right to enter" the United States. The Religious Test he's concerned about is about who can be in the government.
But we don't have to be fools about that either. If the Communists declare themselves to be a "religion" tomorrow, do we have to be credulous morons and buy it?
Islam is a political movement disguised as a religion. Only fools don't see this. Could you say the same about Christianity? Possibly, but the founder of that religion drew a clear line between his church and the government.
Contrary to what Guiliani thinks, the First Amendment doesn’t cover people in other countries, and there is no constitutional right for anyone to come here. Carter ban Iranians, and deported about 15,000 of them.
That’s what confused me. I don’t believe Trump is about banning business people who travel here for business purposes. It’s about refugees.
Odd, it did not stop this country from stopping Nazis or Communists during WWII.
Rudy should put some up in his guest room.
Exactly! The fact that we cannot properly vet refugees was the issue. This is the media making a big ado about nothing.
Let’s see WWOD. What would Obama do? Executive order. So sue me....
After Trump’s initial statement following San Bernardino, one of my (hopelessly liberal) sons moaned that (X), their dear Muslim friend, would not be allowed into the US from her current home in Canada. I had to remind him that (X) is already a US citizen, and, further, when she lived here, held a security clearance to work in the Pentagon. She’s hardly an unvetted Muslim; there are thousands of them who’ve been properly vetted. ALL of us have to understand the difference.
No. The President may deny immigration to any individual or group of people, on any basis whatsoever.
No foreigner has an inherent Right to cross our borders.
Vote Trump
IF you exclude mohamedans, perhaps. But if you exclude certain countries of origin, No.
Exactly...I get Trump’s message; you do, and maybe it needs to be tweaked here or there. Easy fix with same intent.
