Your statement first questioned if Obama did what I said he did. The links will tell you that he did, if you look at them. Then you stated : “how does it make it ok for Trump to prevent every muslim person simply because they happen to share the same religion? ” Maybe I’m reading it wrong, but it looks like you believe Trump has a ban on allowing Muslims into this country..aka ALL Muslims in the World. Because that is what the media has sold…a Muslim Ban. The EOs don’t mention religion at all. “Muslim” is a term that liberals and the Media threw in to make it look like Trump is a bigot. He merely wants to help push the security of this country, a goal that, by the examples from the left in the past few years, is one that liberals do NOT share. The vetting is a fine example. No, the refugees coming into this country from the ME were not vetted. The officials in the Obama administration admitted that. They stated that records are difficult to come by and that vetting was just too hard. They stated that in many cases, their version of vetting was to ask the person who they were. No proof was required. So if Usama bin Laden’s brother wanted to come here to blow up a city, he would just have to tell them he was John Smith and that he felt persecuted. That would be all the proof they would need to let him in. You did bring up McVeigh and Nichols, but I thought you were using them as an example of how blanket bans might be bad. If you would like, I will use that example. Let’s say we go back to the cities that they were from…Lockport NY and Lapeer MI respectively. If those two cities had cultures that embraced terrorism, harbored terrorists, had many terrorists that worked out of there as their home base, and had sworn to destroy this country, and IF we had laws about not allowing travel between cities, I would fully support a travel ban on people from those cities. Why WOULDN’T you? Now, since those cities are already in this country, we would have a plethora of devices that could be used to deal with the terrorist threat from them, so it isn’t a realistic comparison, but you get the idea. If you set the criteria the same, I would support the same response.
