And yet, THAT is the problem. We were rational when deciding who could and who couldn't come into this country. And yet those people we said could have suddenly been stopped from doing just that. NOT rational at all. My peeve at this decision!
I dont believe its possible to separate Muslims who want to follow the commands of Jihad from the Muslims who dont.
I dont think its such a horrible thing to find an alternative to bringing them all into our country.
As for Muslims who arent seeking help from the Syria conflict, and just want to come live here in the US, I wouldnt normally have a problem with that (but they must be willing to accept that all beliefs are welcomed here, and that they cannot expect anything to be changed to fit their own comfort level. I certainly dont want to see anything like the image of the cross banned nationally as to not offend the Muslims), but due to the current problems we are having now, I dont think a temporary ban until the problem with Syria is solved is a bad idea.
Lol I get this argument a lot, but I have to say no. Even if I want to ignore the minor amount of supposed Cherokee in my bloodline, I was born here and of several generations down, I'd say I'm pretty native. In the American Way our Old World racial structures have nothing to do with our nativity. American identity is all about birthright. I was born in Aultman Hospital in Canton Ohio, I know from whence I come and many of my peers and brothers of a multitude of the ancient races of Shem, Ham, and Japheth were born there too and are just as native as I to this land.
As for the other nations, even the friendly ones as you mentioned are not totally for us, they can't fully understand us. Just the same as we can't for them. By American Law, our government serves US, not them. By their laws, their governments serve them, not US.

That was poorly worded. Muslims dont live exclusively in the middle east.
Having bans on immigration from certain nations should have been my focus there.
Except for the pesky little fact that the stock market just hit an all time high last week, IIRC. He's doing a good job of destroying it, isn't he?
FYI,
You're too good a writer not to know that "whence" doesn't get a "from" preceding it. LOL
If our immigration policy is so rational previous to a couple of days ago. I dare you to take out a craigslist add with your address stating that you'll give free meals away..,take out a loan you can never pay back to do it and then play roulette with that one guy that might show up and rob and or kill you. Sound rational to you? It doesn't to me. In fact it sounds pretty foolish.

Maybe that's how they talk in Ohio? Always been wondering about that state. (lol).

LOL "spoiled, spoon-fed." LOL
Try it some time. Try being raised in a family where it is assumed you'll be taking over the family empire. I come from a large family where way back when (1900=1920's) my great-grandfather created four family businesses that made them quite rich. So rich, he could afford taking off for eight years to become FDR's under-secretary on the Treasury. And how could he do that? He got his oldest son to run the family businesses. (He was in his late 20's then.)
Oldest son, my great Uncle Marshal, made those businesses thrive enough to turn them into eight businesses. He past it on to his grandson. (His son lucked out, since Uncle Marshal kept working until he died when he was 96 years old. Not so lucky really, since his son died an old man.) As it stands now, Uncle Marshall's side of the of the family is the polo-ponies/social balls set. The rest of us lucked out, and got to make our own ways.
Trump was neither spoiled nor spoon-fed. He got business shoved down his throat from an early age and learned it well. His father was rich, but he was never as rich as Trump, because Trump worked it, and worked it hard!
Don't give me that "spoiled, spoon-fed" junk! You wouldn't want the life he grew up in. And, frankly, he'd have you in a headlock minus your steal-tipped shoes within half a second after raising that foot. Scrappy! The kids of those people who hand over a family empire are scrappier than you could ever imagine!
Oh my Willie I am so flattered by this comment.
However "whence" means: from what place or source. So by interpretation: I know from what place or source I come.
Lol no that's not our native Ohio tongue. The native Ohio tongue has a lot of what the rest of you all consider to be crass and cuss words, but to us we don't really think about it like that.

He always was just about the best writer on this forum... at least in terms of grammatical correctness.... I would hate to see him let that honor slip in this latest incarnation.

That's because they didn't rush over to the airports in the banned countries to see the people turned away from coming here. You see what you want to see.
