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.

I feel like for the time being people they view as threatening or potential threats should be banned but people seeking genuine help and a new start should be able to come in with proper terms
@964DJXB3yrs3Y
I agree that not allowing someone to enter the country based on religion is wrong but caution is necessary if they are from high risk countries. I suggest heavy background checking.
