- Supreme Court allows full enforcement of Trump travel ban
https://www.cbsnews.com/news/supreme-court-allows-full-enforcement-of-trump-travel-ban/
WASHINGTON -- The Supreme Court is allowing the Trump administration to fully enforce a ban on travel to the United States by residents of six mostly Muslim countries. It's almost like the President of the United States is well within his rights.

Why those six countries? Because they have no functional central government with which the US can verify and vet potential refugees. Those countries are such pits of lawlessness that it's effectively impossible to prove that someone claiming to be from there is, in fact, from there. EDIT: That is why the Obama administration selected those 6 countries originally.

I'll take this ban seriously as soon as Saudi Arabia becomes a part of it. I guess Syria and Chad just need to become valuable to us and they'll find their way off the list. This is just half-assed virtue signaling trying to score brownie points with some of our worst and dullest.

I saw on Reddit that this isn't the actual SCOTUS ruling, but a temporary "okay" while the travel ban is in litigation (or is it junction?). You are correct. The Supreme Court lifted an injunction, it didn't rule on the constitutionality of the case per se. Injunctions have an extremely high burden of proof (with the notion that irreparable damage will be done if the law isn't stopped prematurely). Honestly, the fact that the original travel ban was struck down this way is a testament to how shitty it was. Most requests for injunctions don't succeed. So, the travel ban isn't out of the woods yet. The legal challenges will make their way through the proper channels and the constitutionality of the travel ban will be litigated in full.

Which is why I specifically referred to the mass shooting stat. If there is a point to be made, it can be made without misrepresentation.mario2000 posted...How is it misrepresentation?
Because it is used to imply that things like Vegas or San Antonio are rampant and happening daily when in actuality a huge portion of the number is gang violence. It is an inflated number used to fear longer for gun control, which wouldn't do much to stop gang violence anyway.
Obviously 1 situation like Vegas is too many. But there is a more honest way to argue than lumping in Chicago's weekend totalsmario2000 posted..._RETS_ posted...

They should be differentiated for the sake of honest argument. Don't act like the inflated mass shooting number is used as a condemnation of white men's propensity to perpetrate mass shootings, when in reality that number is largely minorities.
And Islam as a religion is shown daily, worldwide to be extremely violent and incompatible with western nations. Obviously there are peaceful Muslims. But vetting should be done of them trying to enter the country. If a travel ban is necessary in order to install more thorough processes and let countries on the list revise their systems of accounting for their citizens, then so be it.
If we have a violence issue here, why invite more Violence by not having standards in place?
Additionally, the guy who gave that inflated stat did so to argue in favor of a gun ban, which would have no effect at all on gang violence moreso than it would law abiding citizens.

Yeah, he called for that 2 years ago. You can call those types of remarks islamophobic, sure. As for the three videos he re-tweeted, only one of those was fake. The other two were authentic video evidence of crimes. I fail to see why those should be censored or forbidden from the public to view. I mean, video evidence is used for convictions... it's not anti-anything. If those videos were ant-Muslim then you're well on the path to saying "well you can't use these videos to prove your case because it's islamophobic". That's where that type of logic leads.
That's insane. And hardly any different than saying you can't have a travel ban because it's islamophobic.
None of this makes the travel ban itself islamophobic or xenophobic or whatever. You say it's "tainted" well what does that mean? In what tangible way? Does the travel ban only target Muslims? No. It's defined by the nations on the list. Case closed.I'll defend any man's Funbazooka!They should be differentiated for the sake of honest argument.

Don't act like the inflated mass shooting number is used as a condemnation of white men's propensity to perpetrate mass shootings, when in reality that number is largely minorities.
So the answer is "because I'm racist". Got itAnd Islam as a religion is shown daily, worldwide to be extremely violent and incompatible with western nations. Obviously there are peaceful Muslims. But vetting should be done of them trying to enter the country. If a travel ban is necessary in order to install more thorough processes and let countries on the list revise their systems of accounting for their citizens, then so be it.
How do you "vet" someone? Which thorough processes would you use? I see rightists toss out these terms like candy on Halloween, but have trouble specifying exactly what they mean.If we have a violence issue here, why invite more Violence by not having standards in place?

Because it is a notion that no one is suggesting. The only reason you have an issue with vetting people coming into the country is because Trump is the one doing it and you're a liberal sheep ready to swallow whatever the media gives to you.
You not wanting people prior to shovel garbage through your front door doesn't mean you have a perfectly clean house. It means you don't want to add to the existing issues if it can be prevented.
There is nothing wrong with revamping standards for entry from countries that have no meaningful way to vet their citizens, especially when they are countries where the majority religion is responsible for most of the violence on that side of the world.

He didn't leave them out. The countries on the ban were all listed by the Obama administration as being especially prone to produce terrorists.
Ain't Trump's fault the countries with his property weren't included in Obama's list
why didn't he revise the list instead of just copying Obama's homework?

Yes, the majority race commits the most of a lot of things in terms of raw numbers. But as a percentage of the population, white males would be under-represented.
So Again, the stats are not as in your favor as you think they are.
Factor in the gang violence that the left loves to include without mentioning what it is, and there is an even greater disparity.Give it up. The facts are against you. This is just sad. You're desperately trying to throw in irrelevant gang violence because the subject of white male-committed violence makes you uncomfortable. And if you're that stuck on percentages, you lose again in that department.

How are you not understanding? First of all, black men are way likelier to commit violence against other races and their own race.
Second, 54% of mass shootings are committed by the racial MAJORITY, which is far more than 54% of the population. So like I said, per the population, white men would actually be underrepresented in mass shootings. This really isn't that hard.
The majority of mass shootings are committed by the majority number because there are simply more of them. If blacks or hispanics or asians were the majority, they would commit the majority of mass shootings.
However, per the population, again, whites would be underrepresented. Even without factoring in gang violence.

Literally no one has suggested America is a peaceful paradise. No one is suggesting every immigrant will bring violence. People are suggesting that procedures for vetting need to be reviewed and implemented to determine who may be a threat and who isnt. There is literally nothing wrong with that. Every civilized country monitors immigration.
And if you think it is so violent, why would you not want processes to prevent more Violence from coming in?
Your argument makes no sense and you have been wrong with literally every point you have tried to argue. You simply don't have the mental capacity to engage in any meaningful discussion on the topic, so you should probably shut the fuck up before you make a bigger fool of yourself.
Also, you should at least be consistent. If you want to use homeland violence as a reason, why not use black violence, which is statistically overrepresented and likelier to happen? Why use white, which is underrepresented?

No one is suggesting all Muslims are violent, but you are fooling yourself to suggest that many ME countries are violent and uncivilized. To suggest otherwise is willful ignorance. And again, it is not my job to determine the processes by which immigrants are vetted, but there has to be something to separate nonviolent Muslims from violent ones similar how there are processes to separate violent gun-seekers from nonviolent ones. Background checks, means of keeping track of citizens' actions and crimes, etc (you know, like every civilized country has when it comes to monitoring immigrants.)
Your original intention of asking about mass shootings was to use a form of violence you thought you could characterize as white violence in order to compare that to muslim violence. If you didn't care about race and only the level of violence, you would have used gang violence, which is far more prevalent and claims far more lives. But you wouldn't dare to do that because you can't paint it as a white issue and you are dishonest and unintelligent. Not only are mass shootings NOT representative of white violence (because again, based on YOUR numbers, whites would be underrepresented) but you ignore the source of far, far more violence because it hurts your narrative.
I have nothing against Muslims. I want more peaceful people of any race, sex, creed, religion, etc in the country and more violent people not in the country or at least not free to roam in public. It is by no means unreasonable to want well-functioning systems in place to distinguish between the two.

So there should be no gun control measures until there is mind reading right?
And I dont care if Muslims or anyone else comes to the country legally as long as they are peaceful. Couldn't have been any clearer.
And if you need it reiterated, it is not a ban based on religion. Because the countries on the list are a fraction of majority Muslim countries. It is a ban of countries that have been determined (by a previous administration, mind you) to be likelier to produce terrorism due to unchecked citizens.
I am not uncomfortable about white violence. You are using it as a means of comparison, when if level of violence was your argument, you would use an example that reflects a disproportionately high level of violence. But that would be about minorities and your too scared to be honest in that regard.So there should be no gun control measures until there is mind reading right?

Yes, the majority are peaceful. Measures should be in place to identify and bar the violent minority. This isn't difficult to understand but you are really struggling for some reason.
If you want Saudi Arabia on the list (a country who has measures for accounting for their citizens) ask why Obama didn't include them on his list.
And again, you brought up mass shootings to compare violence. But you chose a relatively low-frequency form of violence to make the comparison in an effort to show how violent America is. You did this because you THOUGHT it could easily be painted as white violence (which it cant), whereas if you really wanted to illustrate high rates of violence in the USA you would have used gang violence. But you didn't because then you wouldn't be able to virtue signal about racism.

"The Obama-signed law contains provisions that restrict travel to the United States for people who lived in or visited Iran, Iraq, Sudan, or Syria since March 2011. They must have a visa to enter the United States; they can’t use what is known as the Visa Waiver Program, which allows 90-day U.S. visits to other foreign visitors.
The law was soon expanded by Obama’s Department of Homeland Security to cover Libya, Somalia, and Yemen. They were identified in the agency’s announcement as "countries of concern," a phrase used in the law."

No, it's a knee-jerk reaction to appease Trump's xenophobic fear-mongering voter base. All of the terrorist attacks we have suffered since 9/11 have been committed by American-born citizens.

Yes, WE have laws to prevent it, but they don't do anything if other countries don't have enough information to share. This also shouldn't be very hard for you to understand, yet it is.

Tell me how we decide whether or not someone's a terrorist. Do we ask them? Because they're just going to lie about that. Do we go "well they came from this country/are of this religion which has terrorists so that means this person is probably a terrorist"? Because that's discrimination and is unconstitutional.Here's a hint.... universal enforcement of policies increases their efficacy.

Well obviously. We are already doing our job by having our laws in place to prevent criminals from entering our country. That is the most we can possibly do without infringing on human rights laws or breaking our own constitution.partisan hackery

Well if these other countries don't have enough information to share, then a temporary travel ban isn't going to do shit about that, now is it?It is also very interesting that you choose to start your tally on September 12, 2001. But again, if we already have our own issues, why would we not want to exhaust measures to ensure we are not actively importing more issues? If only we could work with other countries to establish ways to make sure good people are coming in and bad people are not....
Tell me how we decide whether or not someone's a terrorist. Do we ask them? Because they're just going to lie about that. Do we go "well they came from this country/are of this religion which has terrorists so that means this person is probably a terrorist"? Because that's discrimination and is unconstitutional.Here's a hint.... universal enforcement of policies increases their efficacy. Everything we do doesn't matter if other countries are not also actively participating in monitoring citizens.
Well obviously. We are already doing our job by having our laws in place to prevent criminals from entering our country. That is the most we can possibly do without infringing on human rights laws or breaking our own constitution.partisan hackery

Literally no one reading this would interpret our interactions any other way than you getting completely dismantled every time you post, by myself and anyone else who has responded to you.
A temporary travel ban helps because it allows time (during which no one, good or BAD is permitted to enter) to review other countries means of cooperating with us to ensure safety of our citizens, safety of their citizens, and insurance against violence being transferred from one country to another.
And President's reserve the right to restrict travel from places. Not everyone in those countries is Muslim and not every Muslim country is on the list. So there is nothing unconstitutional about it.
And for the 4th time, you determine someone's likelihood of committing violence by background checks, reviews of affiliations, etc. Things that the countries on the list DO NOT DO in any meaningful way, so until they can it is prudent to restrict travel.

Keep deluding yourself. It's the only way you can survive.A temporary travel ban helps because it allows time (during which no one, good or BAD is permitted to enter) to review other countries means of cooperating with us to ensure safety of our citizens, safety of their citizens, and insurance against violence being transferred from one country to another.
We have not suffered any major terror attacks from foreign perpetrators in nearly the last two decades. That is also plenty of time to work with other countries in getting them to cooperate with us. This travel ban accomplishes nothing and is just Trump throwing a bone to his worshipers.And President's reserve the right to restrict travel from places. Not everyone in those countries is Muslim and not every Muslim country is on the list. So there is nothing unconstitutional about it.
There must be a rational basis for imposing a ban, usually a country from which there is a clear and imminent threat. None of these countries have made imminent threats towards us.And for the 4th time, you determine someone's likelihood of committing violence by background checks, reviews of affiliations, etc. Things that the countries on the list DO NOT DO in any meaningful way, so until they can it is prudent to restrict travel.
Seems like they actually do get background checks: https://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2017/01/29/us/refugee-vetting-process.html
I'd say the current process is working pretty well, since again, you know, we haven't suffered any major foreign-perpretrated terrorist attacks in nearly 20 years.
But you would know that if you took the 2 seconds it takes to Google this stuff.How old are you? If you are at least in your 20s you are far too old to be so god damn dumb.

You being pedantic about word usage is the result of you having no legitimate arguments in any other regard ITT.
And I wasn't referring to importing people, I was referring to importing issues (specifically violence) which is more abstract and not synonymous with importing refugees, which you I suppose unwittingly equated with violence.Nah, I've presented all my legitimate arguments.

I have not once equated Muslims with violence. I said there needs to be processes of distinction between Muslims (or anyone else) with ill-will and those without. I agreed the majority are peaceful and the minority is the issue (and the reason for the necessity of review) and said twice that I would prefer peaceful people come and violent people not.

I haven't melted down. I've provided you with clear and accurate counter points to your moronic bullshit. I will continue to insult you amidst all that because people like you deserve to be insulted.I have not once equated Muslims with violence.
Except for the part where you literally did, and your constant dogwhistling, your word choice and tone, the fact that you got super jimmy-rustled when you perceived me to be talking about white violence instead of minority violence. It's pretty easy to see where your beliefs lie.I said there needs to be processes of distinction between Muslims (or anyone else) with ill-will and those without.

ok
All of that is inference on your part. My belief lies with the facts. Fact, blacks are likelier to perpetrate violent crime. Fact, whites are actually underrepresented in mass shootings (per your own stats), with or without gang violence factored in. So WHY would you use mass shootings to make your point of high levels of violence? You did it to bitch about white males.
And saying the ME is full of shit hole countries is not dog whistling anything. It is a fact. There is more violence in that region than anywhere in the world and there is no excuse for it. Or are you denying the extremely common occurrence of attacks that claim hundreds of lives?
Again though, your own words defeat your point. If you want to start your tally on September 12, 2001 (which you do in order to stay consistent with your dishonesty), then we have not had any major terrorist attacks from immigrants, which is great. So WHY THE FUCK would we want to increase our chances of that number going from negligible to significant by bringing in people unchecked from countries considered high risk that have no meaningful method of ensuring that won't happen?
What you are wanting increases the likelihood of a foreign attack on our soil. So what is the solution? Making sure those who come in are not likely to perpetrate that. How is that accomplished? Through cooperation with countries that can monitor and account for their citizens.
See? Wasn't that easy? My girlfriend works with special needs kids, so I changed up my approach and went step by step like she does so maybe you can start to understand.mario2000 posted...NINExATExSEVEN posted...

Please, explain where there is racism. Please. Is it racist of me to give you facts? Is anything you don't like or that doesn't fit your narrative racist?
I would say a third world country where gays are regularly executed, women have no rights, rape victims are executed for being rape victims, no one has any meaningful quality of life, and people regularly get blown up by the hundreds qualifies as a shit hole. If you disagree, then I expect a picture of your boarding pass for your flight to any of the countries on the list.
To your "point" of why the number hasn't increased, you may walk across the street 10 times without looking and not get hit by a car, that doesn't mean you shouldn't review your approach. The current process may very well be working "fine" but if steps can be taken to optimize it they should be.Please, explain where there is racism. Please. Is it racist of me to give you facts?
