    Never proclaimed it as such.

    This is why I have a problem with the right. They can't seem to understand when they've won.

    Too inept to understand when someone is agreeing with you. But I supposed when all you have a is a hammer, every problem has to look like a nail.

    So trying to prevent the next 9-11 is a shiny penny?

    The truth is America has had enough of your style of no can do, America is a declining nation and the bad guy in the world attitude and you have been kicked to the curb with nothing left to do but throw temper tantrums

    The ban is temporary until we can come up with a better vetting system so you are on Trump's side

    Every day I wake up and ask myself "what do the people in France think about my president."

    No I don't.

    Who are these idiooots in other parts of the world who think we Americans need their approval on how our president should protect our country?

    Your last point is interesting. I wondered if he would initiate a freeze and then kick off a real vetting process but I never thought that he would institute a blanket Muslim ban, because doing so would be foolish and counterproductive. Despite the insistence of the Left, Trump is not noted for being foolish or thoughtless. That's simply not his background.

    So trump doesn't want future murders to happen. Once it happens it is too late. Getting out in front of it, since no one thinks the radicals are gonna stop wanting to terrorize here as they have done in Europe, is the intelligent thing to do. Once the radicals start to die off, the terrorism starts going away then you take another look at immigration security.

    Calling working people who have not been represented in DC in decades, "fan boys" is just lacking grace with a loss of the presidency. Sure in schools we even give the losers a prize but this ain't elementary school and the sooner the losers understand this they will have matured a little bit.

    No ban would be necessary if we simply utilized the proper 21st Century resources, such as technology.

    Totally blown out of proportion.

    "progressives" are going wild about the immigration restrictions, they are the ones making a huge deal out of it.

    Conservatives say to Trump, "Good job, keep it up", and move on to the other serious problems such as repealing obamacare and the poor economy and the overbearing oppressive government.

    We need to stop the possibility of no-go zones in America like they are starting to get in, get this, Europe. No-go zones (due to Muslims) in EUROPE. Wow.
    "Islam" means "submit"....We. Will. Not. Submit!

    You're probably one of those crazy lunatics who demand FACTS, and don't fall victim to cheap appeals to EMOTION!! :) Hehe, you're not a Democrat, that's for sure.

    Perhaps ... but instead of extinguishing the fire, Trump still taps gasoline into the fire with his amateurish measures!

    Nice that you quote in core the reasoning of Hitler with what he won democratic election in 1933 ... what then followed we all know!

    Very interesting, if here the right with slogans, views and terms founded their attitude, against which their grandfathers moved into the 2nd world war against Nazi Germany and what they thus fought!

    Areas of the US with the least amount of Muslims also happen to be the areas that are the most afraid of them.. maybe it's just a coincidence

    Ever see anything good in hollywood or on the news about muslims? Thats the only experience many have of muslims. The media let the evil genie out of the bottle and cannot put it back in.

    Now i am wary of Islam due to the human rights issues involved with it but the blanketed hatred is in part contributed by the media painting a bad picture. Also, muslims doing nothing that I have seen to verbally, publicly, and continuously oppose the human rights violations of their conservative kin.

    The statistics in europe and muslim rape in sweden only cement these beliefs even in an intellectual mind who desires physical concrete evidence.

    The idea that Business Leaders are paid to oppose Trump is just so obviously absurd that I'm not sure why you posted it

    Right, because all business interests are the same. That's so absurd I can't believe you posted it.

    Haha! I'm really hoping they have a scientists protest march like I'm hearing so I can go and wear my MAGA hat. I completed two years at Ga.Tech before dropping out and I subscribe to Popular Science. Or will they allow male scientists - I hope so.

    Same tired old **** you think ... mmmh ... well, if someone is enough open minded for facts and not playing the 3 monkeys for things which hurt own believing, let's have a look on your claim:

    Evidently, Bush launched an unfounded and justified attack in 2003 ... even Hitler had done this in 1939.
    Bush has documented every international convention, also signed by the US, and also every US right to all prisoners, making them lawless people, who can also be (partially) tortured .... Hitler, too, had excluded various groups and prisoners in the 2 World War.

    Trump has led, among other things, to racist utterances and attacks on numerous minorities, and blamed these minorities for the bad situation in the US .... Hitler too had led a campaign of hatred for minorities and blamed them for the then desolate situation Germany, including the defeat in the First World War.
    Trump attacks the entire media landscape and all political parties and groups (regardless of whether they are Democrats or Republicans) in the US and acts like an absolutist ruler who does not allow any criticism of himself and his decisions ... somehow Hitler has done the same thing.
