STOP ISSUANCE OF VISAS TO WEST AFRICANS
Self Opinion | 10/7/2014 | Self

Posted on 10/07/2014 4:19:56 AM PDT by ICCtheWay

BLOCK VISAS BEING GRANTED TO PEOPLE IN WEST AFRICAN NATIONS.

WE DON'T WANT TO EVEN BE EXPOSED TO THE EBOLA VIRUS...

It occurs to be from reading various articles and posts on Freerepublic.com that some people including political 'leaders' think it is okay to have Government policies that have caused American citizens to be exposed to Ebola by a foreign national who was allow to enter the U.S. coming from a known Ebola Hot Spot - because they claim that an Ebola outbreak would not occur and/or if it did it could easily be contained. I find this attitude totally empty headed... : Foreign nationals from many places are denied a visa to visit America - denied entry. Yet some how those from Ebola epidemic Hot Spot Countries are not to be told NO! Cannot be told - No you cannot visit your family. It happens everyday to people who do not come from West African Countries.

Americans don't want to even be exposed to Ebola and have even a small chance of catching the disease. Because even the exposure is Not Necessary. Liberians and other West Africans do not have a right to demand they be allowed entry into the USA. And the U.S. Government has no obligation to allow them. Americans want the Ebola virus kept away from America - because there is no reason to have to be exposed to it at all - regardless if it can be controlled or contained. It doesn't matter whether some think an Ebola outbreak cannot happen or if it did it can be controlled. We don't want it inside our country. And if people in other countries have their feelings hurt because they can't visit America --- well too damned bad. The health and welfare of American people comes before the wants and desires of other nationalities who want to visit.

People from West African Nations can be told that visiting America in the near future will require a complete certified medical examination, they can be told that they may have to opt for a 35 day quarantine in isolation if they really want to pursue coming to America. They can be told NO!

I have an American friend here in Thailand, he and his Thai wife have a Thai woman friend who applied to the American Embassy in Bangkok to get a Visa to go to America to present her PhD Dissertation. She was denied - only a few weeks ago... She has not been exposed to a deadly disease. Ebola nor anything like is not endemic to Thailand. She likely was denied because bureaucrats in our State Department firmly believe that Thai women and other Asian women only want to go to America to find a husband and may overstay her visa. Denials have happened many times to Thai women. And for this one fine Thai lady - no one cared if her feeling were hurt.

Liberians are allowed to come to America even though statistics show that about half will overstay their visa. I would bet good money that half of the 13,000 Liberians in Dallas (who knew) are visa over stayers... Mr. Duncan quit his job, lied on a Liberian Immigration form, is poorly educated, offers next to nothing of value to America but is granted a visa... while a Thai women is denied a visa to go to America to present her PhD Dissertation... That's what we have folks - a dysfunctional government.

Bottom Line is - it does not matter if Ebola will take hold in America or not... it does not matter is Ebola can be treated in America and people will survive it... We do not want to be even exposed to Ebola - because it is not necessary ... it can be stopped and could have - should have been stopped months ago... And Americans have a right to demand it.

But we have bleeding heart liberals with no brains making decisions. Making decisions counter to the health and welfare of Americans.

Many of us Americans do know ILLOGICAL policies when we be see them... And there is no logic supporting the U.S. Government's stance on continuing to allow people from West African Countries to enter America... Had such a policy been in place even a month ago ... Mr. Duncan would have never been diagnosed with Ebola in Dallas, Texas.

Where are they getting the money to fly in and out of the U.S.? They are living in huts like Obama’s brother over there, so what gives?

My idea is to take people off this excuse those who support the government hand out and some fall into... That we can manage Ebola - what’s the problem...

And to that I say .. B.S. We don’t want to even be exposed ... what are you thinking about ... America is not a Third World Country

Since someone with Ebola isn’t any different that a bio dirty bomb, how about we allow muslim terrorist to bring bio dirty bombs into the country?

It would just make sense to be able to use all of the resources that would be needed if Ebola spreads globally to train locals to treat it themselves, contained in Africa. I would like to see NO caregivers who want to return to their homelands being involved with actual contact with Ebola victims in these countries.

If they won't step up and follow procedures, that's even more of a reason to contain it. Darwin and all of that.

I agree.

Just for the amount of time, until this is under control.

Close immigration, from those countries with major outbreaks of Ebola.

Completely. Re-open it when they’re over the outbreak, but this needs to be stopped right now.

Sensible. Obvious.

The big question is why we haven’t already done that?

The answer seems obvious to me.

Here’s another idea too — after restricting flights in and out to nothing but ‘essential flights’, why not have plastic barriers between all passengers aboard those planes?

FEDGOV run by CPUSA and Unions not protecting US Citizens

Why is GOP and Right Wing letting this go unchallenged?

Maybe the Military needs to step in and clean house.

“How about stopping all flights from Spain too?”

If Spain has an outbreak beyond a few isolated cases, you bet!

And auto-isolation of all passengers from high-risk nations until their mandatory blood tests prove negative.

Liberians are allowed to come to America even though statistics show that about half will overstay their visa. I would bet good money that half of the 13,000 Liberians in Dallas are visa over stayers...and are riding the US gravy train 24/7.

So who paid the Ebola carrier to fly-in from impoverished Liberia?

Chances are you did.

(NTL REVIEW/DAVID HANSON)---Boston bomber brothers---Chechan immigrants here on expired student visas---offer us a teachable moment about what has become near-suicidal US immigration policies..... the government can't, and wont, assure Americans that it is enforcing immigration laws already on the books:

(1) foreign nationals must at least avoid crime and stay off public assistance, and,

(2) the govt would be disinclined to grant "asylum" (free ride on the US gravy train) to “fearful refugees” from war-torn Islamic regions, and,

(3) forcing taxpayers to foot the bill for these "fearful foreign nationals" to travel back and forth to their supposedly "hostile" homelands.

=====================================================

STRANGE NAME FOR A LIBERIAN Ebola carrier "Thomas Duncan" falsified official documents in order to sneak in.

Did "Duncan" steal an identity in order to facilitate his entry into the US?

The CDC chief when interviewed posed an outrageous position — he automatically linked restricting West Africans from coming here to we cannot keep Aid workers from flying there...

Total double talk .. no one was taking the position of stopping aide workers from going there..

Typical Leftist trick - switch the topic - ignore the issue

Thomas Duncan is not a strange name for a Liberian. Pray tell, what name were you expecting?
