Proponents argue that this strategy would bolster national security by minimizing the risk of potential terrorists entering the country. Enhanced screening processes, once implemented, would provide a more thorough assessment of applicants, reducing the likelihood of malicious actors gaining entry. Critics argue that such a policy might inadvertently promote discrimination by broadly categorizing individuals based on their nation of origin rather than specific, credible threat intelligence. It may strain diplomatic relations with the affected countries and potentially harm the perception of the nation enacting the ban, being seen as hostile or prejudiced towards certain international communities. Additionally, genuine refugees fleeing terrorism or persecution in their home countries might be unjustly denied safe haven.

The screening process should be increased & strengthened for ALL immigration applicants.
@8TWGPMY4yrs4Y
No but High risk countries need to go through thorough checks.
No because assuming that the terrorists are the Muslim’s is morally wrong if said restrictions were put to place, it than shouldn’t be just for Muslim but every other religion in the world, Islam (the religion) doesn’t in force Terrorism therefore the people committing these acts are in fact not Muslim as they are not practicing the religion the way it is peacefully intended
@8RR32C24yrs4Y
Bad Religion all together
@8QYLNNS4yrs4Y
No, but we should limit the amount of immigrants until screening improves.

If the government needs to improve their ability to screen out potential terrorists then we must have terrorists in our community that they know of. The Muslim populations do have higher rates of terrorism and should be screened like anyone else.
@8DGN7D25yrs5Y
Not banned but I believe they should be checked and made sure of.
@8NKHYDG4yrs4Y
not everyone is bad, but to be sure that we aren’t letting someone into the country who has a history of gun violence or terisom do a background check and screen them.
@8JW33M84yrs4Y
Stop blaming one race, us First Nations were here way before you. Stop letting everyone IN. You could leave to make there be less population.
@98HRH7F2yrs2Y
Yes, a better vetting process needs to be implemented for countries that lack infrastructure on these issues.
