No details. Just heard this flipping through news channels

If we can’t ban islam we can certainly ban immigrants from enemy states or states that harbor terrorists or societies that wish to destroy us.

True, though with how things have gone the past 20+ years, you'd have to ban immigrants from most of Europe, and I doubt any President (Trump or anyone else) would be willing to do that.

Perhaps the best solution would be what some in this thread have suggested - just institute a moratorium on immigration, period.

Yur welcome;-)

HAHAHA! Perfect image! Saving it to my PC.

[Jim Robinson]

I’m 100% for it.

So, if you're going to do that, there had better be strict criteria and an airtight process.

Agree, limit it to any cult which encodes in its teachings: murder, lying, plunder, slavery, rape, and even terrorism as part of its official religious doctrine.

Basically one that violates our country's Bill of Rights and the Almighty's commandments!

After the next attack on American soil, most Americans will agree with Trump. Sadly, I don’t think we will have to wait too long.

Actually, I’d review each mosque for the distribution of Seditious material.

18 U.S. Code § 2381 - 2391.

How about this - If they refuse the pork, offer them a nice bowl of picked herring in cream sauce. Never met a Muslim (or any non-Jew for that matter) who could stomach the stuff.

[dem bums]

I’m coming around to that view as well - Immigration should be for the purpose of benefitting the U.S., not exposing the U.S. to additional risk.

I recall something about “inalienable rights”, not “citizens’ rights”.

Yes, the Declaration of Independence describes universal rights as an explanation for why we were ending our association with Britain. But the Constitution is document of laws outlining the fundamental structure of a national government. What nation would that be?

[mkjessup]

Now I will say that CNN (so take it with a YUGE grain of salt) is reporting that Trump is also calling for hte surveillance of all mosques.
That IS a 1st Amendment issue if you are surveilling them without a warrant, or with a warrant based on less than actionable evidence.

I'm not so sure about that. No First Amendment rights would be violated by conducting surveillance of mosques which have been proven in some instances to be centers for the recruitment and indoctrination of Muslims for terrorist purposes. If a cop on the beat happens to be in the area of a mosque, that isn't a First Amendment issue. They're just doing their jobs, patrolling an area which has reportedly been a potential high crime area. Neighborhood Watch groups could help out, to make sure their Muslim 'neighbors' arrive and depart from their mosques safely.

It's the neighborly thing to do.

[Patton@Bastogne]

not the first amendment ... it’s for u.s. citizens only ...

Local news in Detroit just mentioned.

“Donald Trump is calling for a complete shut down of muslims entering the United States. He says he has polling data which shows the majority of muslims hate the United States”

Polling data?

You are going to have lots of issues here

1 Samuel 15:3 Now go and smite Amalek, and utterly destroy all that they have, and spare them not; but slay both man and woman, infant and suckling, ox and sheep, camel and ass.

NUMBERS 21:3 The Lord gave the Canaanites over to Israel, who “completely destroyed them and their towns.”

NUMBERS 31:17-18 God commanded Moses to kill all of the male Midianite children and “kill every woman who has slept with a man, but save for yourselves every girl who has never slept with a man.” The virgins were presumably raped. (NOTE: How could the soldiers know which women were virgins?)

“Thus says the Lord of hosts, ‘I will punish Amalek for what he did to Israel, how he set himself against him on the way while he was coming up from Egypt. 3 ‘Now go and strike Amalek and utterly destroy all that he has, and do not spare him; but put to death both man and woman, child and infant, ox and sheep, camel and donkey,” (1 Samuel 15:2-3).

You are gonna have to be very specific

[mkjessup]

BRILLIANT!!

I nominate you for the pre-screening process for all future candidates for entry into the United States!

BRAVO! :)

Donald the Hammer.

I salute his courage.

This is war. People die. Consider them soldiers.

The important thing is that we save our values and our culture (the good part of it) for our children, their children and posterity.

America is not just a country...it is an ideal and a dream.

America is about freedom and the Judeo/Christian culture that makes it possible.

[JimRed]

...there had better be strict criteria and an airtight process.

Agreed; I think I said the same thing the last time I proposed it.

[mkjessup]

Your post illustrates an eternal Truth:

Don’t mess with Israel unless you want to risk pissing God off.

DON’T PISS GOD OFF.
