    Trump's Muslim Ban

    It's ill thought out and goes too far. But banning citizens from other countries is not unprecedented in the U.S. It has happened before and people didn't get their knickers in a twist.

      If the British majority started to follow an extreme religion then I could understand it.

          Seriously though 95% of the nutters for 911 were Saudi, for decades they have used their oil money to promote their extreme form of Islam and fund terrorism, as well as liberally sprinkling (western sourced I might add) weapons at a piss poor country Yemen, if trump was serious he would have banned the house of Saud, but he isn't and its all a media game so let's ban a few countries who are piss poor have no oil or global influence instead, what a wank puffin!

                Well then perhaps then you should start with Christianity. No other nation on earth has split as much human blood as has America.

                  Translated, what you're saying there is "Completely different actions done for completely different reasons under completely different circumstances didn't make people object, so I don't see why they should object now." This is not such a solid defence of your position as you seem to think it is

                    How about everyone bans everyone then there will be no need for anyone to travel anywhere and the environment and climate may just recover a little (although Trump is a climate change denier so he'll need an alternate fact). With no air travel, there's no need for a 3rd runway at Heathrow (or Tracy island for Boris), and we can turn our airports into housing estates. Assuming there is still some international trade, container ships will dock in international waters outside the countries they are delivering to, and locals will ferry the goods into their destination port.

                      British Vet has been caught up in it as well. Trying to fly back from Costa Rica to the UK via New York. Told she was barred from boarding the flight and left stranded. Cost £2,600 to book new tickets via Milan. Won't be able to pay rent, bills, food etc as a result.
