    Leaked email ties Trump's senior advisor on policy to neo-Nazi Richard Spencer

    Stephen Miller (who wrote both Trump's inauguration speech and the recent immigration order) helped organize political events with Spencer in 2007.

    I don't get all fuss and news coverage about Trump's temporary travel ban on people from 7 countries.

    It's just a simple logical moral dilemma.

    For example... imagine you're a bouncer/door man at a nightclub, it's up to you who gets into the nightclub.

    The previous weekend at another nightclub across town, 10 guys in green shirts smashed up the club, glassed people, raped some woman, knifed someone etc...

    Now on this weekend, you're working the line and 5 guys in green shirts turn up.

    What do you do?

    Trust them, let them in, they say they are innocent and have nothing to do with the guys from last weekend. But... everyone will blame you if it turns out they are the thugs.

    Turn them alway? And get protests from others in the line, because these guys are clearly innocent right? Or have you just saved your club from a disaster?

    Sure you might offend some innocent people if you turn them away, but until you can be confident these guys are ok, isn't it better to er on the side of caution?

    That's all trumps ban is. And it's temporary. Sure some innocent people's lives are getting messed up with it all...

    But let's say he goes the opposite way, lets in 1000's of refugee's and doesn't check visa of people from Iraq, Libya etc...

    And then there's an almighty terrorist attack in USA. I pretty sure the protesters will swing on a dime to start pointing the finger at Trump for letting them in.

    So put yourself in Trumps shoes... he wants to make sure he doesn't end up with blood on his hands. Because given his right lean, I'm pretty sure there's plenty of folk that would love to visa USA and cause terror to spite Trump.

    • the problem is that people that have already been vetted and have legal status are been blocked as wellGnash
    • Sure, instead of having police investigating the identities of the criminals, just blame green shirts.

      Smart.

    • Many Prez have done what he did, even worse, but many believe Trump representants the "racists white male patriarchy"robotron3k
    • many of those people were already citizens. with this logic you should take all of our own people wearing green shirts and put them in concentration campsscarabin
    • ^ Well to be fair Trump does have a large number of racists around him, including the guy who wrote this immigration ban.yuekit
    • During the campaign Trump repeatedly said he was going to ban all Muslims. It's not crazy for people to think this is the first step towards something closeyuekit
    • to that even if "temporary." Is anyone going to be surprised if he renews the temporary ban three months from now?yuekit
    • This U.S. already has an extremely strict vetting for refugees, it can take years to get in. No one was able to point out any problem with the current system.yuekit

    https://www.theatlantic.com/inte…

    "As intended, Howard’s immigration plan drastically reduced the boats making it to Australian shores. In 2002 one asylum-seeker reached Australia, and in the next five years, 57 people each year did. Then in 2007, Australia had a change in government.

    The center-left Labor Party won the election, and Kevin Rudd, the new prime minister, kept his campaign promise to do away with the offshore-processing camps. It would not last long. In 2009, 60 boats arrived in Australia with 2,726 asylum-seekers; the next year it was 134 boats with 6,555 people; then 69 boats with 4,565. And with those rising numbers came rising refugee deaths as leaky boats or wooden vessels shattered against the rocks in the choppy waters. The Liberals, now in opposition, blamed Rudd’s policy for the increased migration, for the deaths, and for supporting the human-smuggler economy. Rudd resisted critics, but soon found himself losing a party leadership vote to Julia Gillard, who succeeded him as prime minister."
