I Love The Usa

It is thrilling to see thousands of Americans protesting against the new Administration's xenophobic ban on Syrian refugees and others. If I were American I would feel very proud right now to see so many people saying loud and clear that refugees are welcome. 🇺🇸

xenophobic? Trump's EO doesnt name any countries or religions. The 7 countries to which it applies were...selected by Obama.

@goliathtree & sassygirl15:

While Obama did halt the refugee program, it did not impact green card holders, or anyone with a visa. It also did not affect refugees who had already gone through the vetting process. Trump’s travel ban barred entry to the United States to those groups, causing a chaotic situation for travelers from the seven affected countries and leading to protests at airports across the country.

@pandora: because of the terrorists around the world that are Syrians. Not like they are being left in Syria. We actually compared to other countries are taking a small amount..

These refugees need housing food healthcare jobs etc. And we have millions of our own citizens without that.

It's not xenophobic, it's only from countries Obama listed as supporting terrorism. That's not race related. If it were Egypt and every Muslim country would be banned.

@sassygirl15: Labelling protests as riots is a sadly useful, but dishonest, way of delegitimizing them.
