People seem to be overlooking the fact that Somali, Sudanese and Iranians are fucking scumbags. Why are people upset they aren't allowed in this country? I feel sympathy towards the Syrians since the USA/Israel put them in that mess in the first place, but who gives a fuck about Somali scum who basically just steal as a living.
If Trump is serious about bringing jobs back to Americans he needs to also include banning Indians and Chinese. They're the true cancer of America.
It's nice that you feel some sympathy for the Syrians on the basis that we played a big hand in creating 'that mess', but if that is your rationale, then you might perhaps want to look a little deeper into the history of our dealings with some of the other countries on the list, too. I did a quick search and found that:
The U.S government supported the brutal dictator Siad Barre in Somalia since the 1970's, after the Soviet Union started backing Ethiopia. From then up until 1991, the U.S sent hundreds of millions of dollars worth of arms to the country in return for the right to use their military facilities and set up its own bases and secret prisons, which were used to support interventions in the Middle East. They then ignored the repeated warnings from the U.N and various NGOs and charities throughout the 1980's that fuelling this regime would lead to disaster. It did, and thousands of civilians were killed before all-out civil war erupted in 1988 - leading to widespread famine and massacres throughout the country. When the U.S- backed regime was finally overthrown in 1991, the country plunged into anarchy. Let’s not forget the infamous 'Black Hawk Down' incident in 1993, where most credible reports put the Somali death toll in the region of a few thousand, and CIA officials conceded in private that as many as 7-10 thousand may have been killed as U.S forces opened fire indiscriminately on civilians. Move forward to around 2011 where years of constant fighting, drought, and lack of aid meant that around 3 million Somalis, 1-in-3 of them being children, were now suffering from severe malnutrition, and the U.N declared a famine. Around quarter of a million people died, and now, in 2017, almost 3 million are still in crisis and face severe food insecurity - but don't worry, they’re all a bunch of fucking scumbags.
Also, don't bother feeling any sympathy for the 1998 U.S bombing of Sudan, when the Al-shifa pharmaceutical factory was destroyed by missiles because of an unjustified and erroneous belief that it was producing chemical weapons. What it was producing, was the country's supply of TB drugs - for over 100,000 people, all the veterinary drugs for what is a predominantly pastoralist country - including the drugs needed to kill parasites which account for the majority of infant deaths, and about half of the affordable medicine needed by the population to treat otherwise fatal medical conditions. Also ignore the fact that before this attack, Sudan had arrested and held two individuals believed to be responsible for the bombing of the U.S embassies and had notified Washington. But the U.S rejected this offer of cooperation as well as turned down the offer of a vast amount of information on Bin Laden and more than 200 key members of his Al-Qaeda network in the years preceding the 9/11 attacks - leading one senior CIA source to describe this and other rejections of Sudanese offers of cooperation as 'the worst single intelligence failure in this whole terrible business'.
Don't worry, though. We have elected the man who is going to sort this entire debacle out. Trump has the intelligence to see that the key to stopping terrorist attacks from happening here is to revoke tens of thousands of visas from citizens of seven countries that have never been responsible for a single American death on home shores, and to forget about the countries responsible for 93% of all U.S terrorism. Doesn't really matter, though - appearing to do
something will be enough to get his supporters whooping and cheering about 'making America great again'.
