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.

@8FDVHB45yrs5Y
no, immigration should be cut down to ensure that everyone coming in is screened properly. but also so that the people who already live here have the right to be helped by there own country before outsiders are brought in.
@8CX4TNN5yrs5Y
Well, if we cannot get a background check on these immigrants before letting them in to ensure they will not do terrorism, then yes, they should be banned until the government improves its ability to screen out potential terrorists, just to lower the chances of a terrorist attack.
@8CB9MQZ5yrs5Y
Allow immigrants with A good reason for why they are immigrating
@96K3HXP3yrs3Y
No, but but strictly screen them for criminal backgrounds and make the process easier for refugees.
@8ZB7FVL3yrs3Y
Instead of banning them they should work harder on identifying if anyone is a terrorist or not.
