> [@SteveG1](#): > > Here’s one… > > Trump issued his royal decree on refugees. You know the one to ban all terrorists. But only the Muslim ones. And only certain oens. I can easily diagnose the source of your leftist anger, and the guilty party is clearly yourself, because you are ignorant and misinformed. Ban all terrorists? Those are your words, not Trump’s. You haven’t been paying attention in class, because Trump has repeatedly been speaking very specifically about Islamic terrorism. You know, the ones that are the worst and the ones that must be eliminated completely. They are the ones that will be given priority, as they pose the greatest threat. This is plain common sense. Trump’s executive orders so far are a very good start, but obviously more has to be done, and I suspect that more good news will be coming sooner or later. ---

Most Christians I know, support this mother fucking ban. Here’s what the bible has to say about immigrants. [http://welcomingthestranger.com/wp\_welcoming/learn-and-discern/scripture-and-immigration](http://welcomingthestranger.com/wp_welcoming/learn-and-discern/scripture-and-immigration) Here are some passages to start you out: “The LORD your God is the God of all gods and Lord of all lords, the great, mighty, and awesome God who doesn’t play favorites and doesn’t take bribes. He enacts justice for orphans and widows, and he loves immigrants, giving them food and clothing. That means you must also love immigrants because you were immigrants in Egypt” (Deuteronomy 10:17-19 CEB) “You must not oppress foreigners. You know what it’s like to be a foreigner, for you yourselves were once foreigners in the land of Egypt” (Exodus 23:9 NLT) “When a stranger sojourns with you in your land, you shall not do him wrong. You shall treat the stranger who sojourns with you as the native among you, and you shall love him as yourself, for you were strangers in the land of Egypt: I am the LORD your God” (Leviticus 19:33-34 ESV) " That’s just a small piece. I’m an atheist and the Christians I know who support this ban, better hope I’m right, cause I imagine god might have a problem with their thinking on this. ---

> [@MindsEye\_Watering](#): > > What does that have to do with a ban on Muslims, dummy? Trump’s ban is legal. Leftist dummies such as yourself should just learn to deal with it. You don’t really have any other choice, as ignoring reality will not change anything. You could always go out and join the few dummies and losers that have gathered at a few different airports to protest. That wont change anything either, but it does provide temporary entertainment for people like me, so something positive does comes out of their protest in the end at least, even it’s unintentional. ---
