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.

A. this question is self is so stupid yall should shut yourselfs down for it.
@8VMFPYMNew Democratic4yrs4Y
No but do extensive background checks especially from "high risk"countries
Yes however depends on where they came from.
@8SC7CH6New Democratic4yrs4Y
why just muslims? any race could potentially be a terrorist.
@8S2YW344yrs4Y
No, this isn't fair, if we do this then we can't limit screening to one religion we must do it for everyone.
@8QFVJYV4yrs4Y
@8PVFBQB4yrs4Y
If they are going to do this to Muslims, they should do this to every immigrant that enters this country.
@8PJ7SQN4yrs4Y
Absolutely not. While I see the concern with terrorists it is completely racist to reject a person from our country who is simply looking for a better life.
@8NJXXX54yrs4Y
no, but they should be checked in on until the screening
@8H9QYNV5yrs5Y
Everyone should be screened the same
Banning Muslims altogether is unconstitutional. However a criminal record check may be a good idea. But may it be a FAIR criminal record check.
@8ZG86HGNew Democratic3yrs3Y
No, but increase background check for all immigrants
@8S2LJ243yrs3Y
No, banning anyone based on who they are, what they believe in, and what they have done in the past is against the teachings of Jesus Christ
