Protests at JFK over detention of two Iraqi men in wake of Trump immigration ban
QNS ^ | January 28, 2017

Posted on 01/28/2017 11:33:19 AM PST by SMGFan

Protesters have already begun gathering outside Terminal 4 at John F. Kennedy International Airport after two Iraqi refugees were detained as a result of an immigration ban ordered by President Donald Trump on Friday.

Make the Road New York, which is located in Jackson Heights, will hold a formal protest at 6 p.m. on Jan. 28 at JFK’s Terminal 4 to protest Trump’s executive order that prohibits residents of Iraq and a select number of other Middle Eastern nations from entering the United States for at least 90 days.

A few ICE vans should pull up. Let’s see if anybody in the crowd decides to be elsewhere.

People who have earned their right to enter the US

Why does the enemedia allow statements like this to go unchallenged? Tell me how foreigners "earn" the right to enter the US?

“He is creating even more hostility against the US”

Running around shouting “death to America”, crucifying and beheading Christians and selling minorities into sex slavery is already about as hostile as it gets. People in the countries on the list were doing all this before Trump ever became an issue.

It looked like about 25 people led by Jerrold “The Whale” Nadler.

So the US government gets to decide who can enter the USA. What a novel idea, keep this up and the US might remain sovereign.

Will everyone be wearing those pink pussy hats? If not, it isn’t considered an official protest!

And, of course, they used to love us and didn’t incarcerate American journalists and Christians.

The only people who have the right to enter the US are US citizens, sweetheart. There's no inherent right for foreigners to enter this country, especially those who are not well vetted.

The protesters should take these foreigners home to live with them.

Nobody who is not a citizen has a *right* to come here.

Some time ago, there was a death in our family. A relative who lives in Canada as a legal resident (green card in Canada) had a US passport that had expired.

While still being a US citizen, this relative was NOT allowed to come back into the country for the funeral because the passport was expired.

A US CITIZEN ***NOT*** allowed back in their own country!

While illegals stay here and protest every day, and while non citizens are given permission to come in.

If I crossed over into Canada without my passport even for the afternoon, I would not be able to enter back into the US, or I would be detained until they figured out what my fate would be. They warn you to NOT leave the country without your passport for this very reason.

What the heck is wrong with this picture?!?!?!

Since when has being a citizen of this country become a liability for AMERICANS?

More Hypocrisy: Obama Banned all Iraqi Refugees for 6 Months in 2011 – Liberals said nothing!

In 2011 the US discovered Al-Qaeda terrorists living as refugees in Kentucky. As a result of this discovery the Obama administration blocked all Iraqi refugees from entering the US for six months. There were no protests. The left said nothing.
