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.

Very racist question, all immigrants should not be terrorists regardless of race or beliefs
@8PFW692Rhinoceros4yrs4Y
No, banning immigrants based on religion or country of origin is unfair, but more time should be taken to investigate possible criminal backgrounds or connections, especially from "high risk" countries and populations.
@8NWJ3SPLibertarian4yrs4Y
No, but we should restrict immigrants from “high risk” countries. banning immigrants based on their religion is unconstitutional
