Worries Grow About Trump's Travel Ban [Media Bias]
Danbury News Times (Hearst) ^ | July 1, 2017 | MacKensie Rigg

The Trump administration’s implementation of the so-called travel ban could prevent scores of refugees from coming to Connecticut as planned, although they have been fully vetted and await only a date to resettle in the country, advocates said late last week.

Local Muslims, meanwhile, worried that last week’s Supreme Court decision partly approving the 90-day travel ban for visitors from six mostly Muslim countries, and Trump’s restrictive refugee policies, will increase anti-Muslim sentiment in the country.

Zarina Mohamed, a Bethel resident born in Yemen, one of the six designated countries, never thought the ban would be reinstated after two federal appeals courts blocked it.

“I always thought that America was a free country, and that everyone’s rights would be protected, but the travel ban is restricting one specific group, regardless of who the people actually are,” said Mohamed, a U.S. citizen. “It’s saying that Yemen is a country to be afraid of, which means that Yemeni people should be feared.

“I find that very wrong, because it puts us in a category and separates us from everyone else,” Mohamed said.

The Supreme Court partly lifted the lower-court injunctions against Trump’s executive order that had temporarily banned visas for all refugees and for citizens of Syria, Sudan, Somalia, Libya, Iran and Yemen. The justices’ ruling exempted visa applicants and refugees from the ban if they could prove a “bona fide relationship” with a U.S. person or “entity.”

If every noncitizen had constitutional rights wouldnt we be morally obligated to invade and take over every country in the world to liberate all the citizens who are being oppressed because their home countries are violating their constitutional rights...

Bammy said it went against privacy laws to look at what the refugees say on the net.

Complete BS. The legal doctrine in this country is that there is no expectation of privacy in a public place. Not much more public than the net.

>> “Many Muslim countries already have good vetting procedures.” <<

Aww c’mon, thats like the DNC vetting the KKK!

How does one ‘vet’ himself?

Islam is the terror. All true followers of the Quran are global threats, because that is what the book demands.

Worries Grow About Trump's Travel Ban [Media Bias]

This is how the Fake News takes over:

mud·dle ˈmədl/verb gerund or present participle: muddling bring into a disordered or confusing state. "they were muddling up the cards" synonyms: confuse, mix up, jumble (up), disarrange, disorganize, disorder, disturb, mess up "you've muddled things up" confuse (a person or their thoughts). "I do not wish to muddle him by making him read more books" synonyms: bewilder, confuse, bemuse, perplex, puzzle, baffle, mystify

No matter how many times this question was asked at White House press briefings, even the "court" played politics instead of going by law, reformed and re-asked, answered and the question was restated with emphasis on religion......terrorist have been known to practice Islam....President Trump has been abundantly clear as to his reason for closing our borders for a short time....in order to know who is here and who is coming here for National Security - Period! Muslims are 90% in favor of killing Americans....look at Germany, England, France, Sweden where Islam has terrorized those countries. America doesn't need more Muslims living here, unless they clean up their act and stop demanding Sirrah Law in our American courts, honor killings, female mutilation for starters.

We have a President who understands this; POTUS first priority is the security of this nation and her citizens.

Message to Muslims: the main cause of “anti-Muslim” sentiment is Muslim terrorism.

“I always thought that America was a free country...

It was formerly a free country, but it is now under attack by "enemies foreign and domestic." The domestic enemies are allied with the foreign, under the mistaken assumption that they operate in a common cause. Too much tolerance has encouraged the infection to spread.

You’d think not but.....

“Fearing a civil liberties backlash and “bad public relations” for the Obama administration, Homeland Security Secretary Jeh Johnson refused in early 2014 to end the secret U.S. policy that prohibited immigration officials from reviewing the social media messages of all foreign citizens applying for U.S. visas, according to a former senior department official. “

Zarhid Mohamud, why not STFU. Sorry, but we want people who care about the Constitution of these United States, not Shiria Law.
