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.

no because if we do it then we would be called "racist"

Not until the government can also confidently say they're not allowing violent racists from entering, such as members of the kkk.

They can be allowed in but if that individual is suspicious to the government, they can be called in to be screened

I don't think we should stop a certain group from entering and if there are concerns about terrorist screening it should be across all religions and geographical backgrounds.
