Bush banned Saudis from coming to the US after 9/11.
Oh wait.... he didn't. Instead he invaded a different country than the one that attacked us.

Interesting. Did not remember that.
Still does not justify Trump's idea. His idea is unAmerican.

...which has ZERO to do with the current topic does it. Yet another failure by the lib douchbags to actually debate the merits of Trumps idea. Instead its Bush did it waaaaa..fuck Bush, he's retired. Your guy is in charge and he's fucking it up...defend that.

You + cheney + paul ryan + a growing number of republicans all agree with this.
(Me, I'm fine with locking out ALL people, not a certain religion)

You obviously can't comprehend the liberal hipocracy of what the left is saying about Trump on this can you?

ahhhhhhhhhhh so you don't care that trump is taking Carter policy of 40 million iranians, and applying it to 1.5 BILLION muslims.
You don't care because you admitted you'll back any repub, no matter his policy.
You just want to make fun of a liberal network that nobody watches. "the left". You find some example of 35 year old hypocrisy and you start a thread with a big ol' grin. EVEN when it proves the lovable Trump is only employing a Carter policy (which failed, as you'll recall). Epic backfire.

No....hope this helps.

You were the one that told getbig Trump was about to apply carter failed policy to 1.5 billion people.

Agreeing with Dos Equis is problematic for me but he is right.
Trump's statement is absolutely un-American.
This country was founded on people leaving oppressive religious groups to start a new life.
Immigration of all people escaping persecution IS American.

America has had many periods where immigration was stopped completely....are people really this ignorant of history??
People seem to assume immigration to America was always the free-for-all it is today, which is totally ludicrous...
America for its first 200-some years ensured that 90+% of its immigrants came from Europe. there was a total stoppage of immigration from the 1920's to the 1960's, when the democrats decided to open our doors to millions of 3rd-world immigrants, which ended up resulting in the Obama presidencies. various groups have at various times been blocked from immigrating, even by democrat presidents.
it is laughable to see all these morons, esp journalists, saying how it would be 'unconstitutional' to put any sort of check on immigration. it is not only completely constitutional but also common sense, something sorely lacking in our hyper-PC era.

This isn't about curbing immigration. Of course it's not a free for all, but to say "If you are this RELIGION, you can't come in, really is unconstitutional and unamerican. Never have we, as a nation used ones RELIGION as a requirement for immigration.
-
I support halting ALL immigration if the immigrants are doing all of the killing. Yes, out of 1.5 billion muslims, two of them did do a mass shooting last week.
But lock them ALL out. If a bad guy really wants to get in... he'll check the 'hindu' box instead of 'muslim'. They do lie. So stop them ALL, not some.
-
as if it would be so simple as just asking the their religion and checking a box ::)
of course there is no way to screen based on religion; the way this has always been done and the way they intend to do it now is to screen them by where they are coming from.
the media is screaming 'HE WANTS TO BAN ALL MUSLIMS AND START RELIGIOUS TESTS!!!' but of course, this was never actually said.
a temporary moratorium-a pause- on all foreigners coming from most middle eastern muslim nations is not only completely constitutional and feasible but also common sense at this point.

Yeah i find my self in 100% agreement with Dos Equis... and i dont like it... dont like it at all
but he hit the nail on the head... its unAmerican. And it plays to the cheap seats.

yet Trump continues to have a decisive lead in the polls
that is telling us something about the mindset of rank and file Republican voters

The nation of Iran (or it's agents) had taken over our embassy and we're holding a group of our diplomats and citizens as hostages. Restricting immigration from that country kind of makes sense both as a sort of sanction/retaliation (albeit weak). Citizens of a nation who are holding our diplomats hostage are not the same thing as a persons choice of religion (some of whom are committing acts of terror and violence). Even that ban was not as strident as what Trump has suggested. There were exceptions:
Fourth, the Secretary of Treasury [State] and the Attorney General will invalidate all visas issued to Iranian citizens for future entry into the United States, effective today. We will not reissue visas, nor will we issue new visas, except for compelling and proven humanitarian reasons or where the national interest of our own country requires. This directive will be interpreted very strictly.
Also, if this is Trumps response to one terrible mass shooting incident then let's consider how many of the 300+ mass shootings this year (where 4 or more people were killed) were committed by native born US citizens. What is Trump going to do about them?
BTW - I don't buy for a second that the family/friends/associates of the San Bernardino shooter had no clue they were radicalized. I'm also sick of hearing muslims saying that these "radicalized" muslims are not really muslim. I call bullshit on that too. They most certainly are muslim. All religions have groups have people that use their religious beliefs to commit acts of violence. Sorry, you can't pretend your crazy aunt or uncle isn't really part of your "family".

Yes. We've really learned a lot about 1/3 of the republican base. Angry, immature, low IQ, low politically informed, and diehard defenders of Trump no matter what he says.
-
wait which "country" attacked us?
No country but Taleban or AQ had a strong presense in Afghanistan.
Saddam had nothing to do with them, actually removing him allowed them to grow A LOT stronger.

There's a difference between banning a countries citizens and banning an entire religion you fucking moron.
