Clemson Prof not allowed to return home
Jan 28, 2017, 6:10 PM
|
|
Just read that Clemson grad and prof Nazanin Zinouri has been prevented from returning home after visiting family in Iran. She has been here for 7 years. This should outrage all Tigers! It's disgusting.

I thought liberals patented throwing the babies out with the bath water. If she gets delayed a couple of days returning from Iran because she booked a flight hours after a new screening process was enacted that's ok.

So you want to ban more countries or not? Did you vote for people that have and are enriching themselves via cronyism or did you not? No ban on the UAE, Egypt and Turkey doesn't even move the needle for me.

Whoops would you look at that. Trump put the travel ban on the exact 7 countries that Obama marked as terrorist threats when He restricted Visas a couple of years ago. But I'm sure it was all fine back when our globalist overlords and MSM said it was ok? Let the scales fall from your eyes. It's much better this way.

Thank goodness you're wrong. He gets to make his SCOTUS pick and the court will side with him.

One of my co-workers has been a US citizen for over 40 years. His mother is still in Bangladesh and visits once every year.
He gets stopped from coming back into the country almost every time. He is often delayed a day or two each time. He says that he is put on a list in part because of the country he travels to. He does not get upset, he just accounts for travel delays every time.
Sometimes I am amazed how calm he is about it. This man is someone who really is very proud to be a citizen of the US.

About what?
Jan 28, 2017, 7:56 PM
|

Whether to rebel against the government or not?
Romans 13:1-7 13 Let every soul be subject to the governing authorities. For there is no authority except from God, and the authorities that exist are appointed by God. 2 Therefore whoever resists the authority resists the ordinance of God, and those who resist will bring judgment on themselves. 3 For rulers are not a terror to good works, but to evil. Do you want to be unafraid of the authority? Do what is good, and you will have praise from the same. 4 For he is God’s minister to you for good. But if you do evil, be afraid; for he does not bear the sword in vain; for he is God’s minister, an avenger to execute wrath on him who practices evil. 5 Therefore you must be subject, not only because of wrath but also for conscience’ sake. 6 For because of this you also pay taxes, for they are God’s ministers attending continually to this very thing. 7 Render therefore to all their due: taxes to whom taxes are due, customs to whom customs, fear to whom fear, honor to whom honor.

Only Thing Necessary for the Triumph of Evil is that Good Men Do Nothing
Jan 28, 2017, 6:31 PM

I hate that for your professor friend but sometimes the Only Thing Necessary for the Triumph of Evil is that Good Men Do Nothing, and the good people in the Middle East and Europe have long needed the impetus to put a stop to the Islamic terrorism before it is too late. Perhaps this will stem the tide.

She only left the states to go over there on January 20th (arrived there on the 22nd) and is already trying to come back? That's an unusually short trip for such a distance. She says said she had already heard there were going to be changes and temporary bans before she left but went anyway? I guess she has a work visa as she isn't a citizen, must not be teaching this semester.
Hopefully all of this will be worked out and she will be cleared to return, wonder if she's applied for citizenship?

Perhaps if people in these countries stood up against islamic terrorism instead of denouncing and then waiting on us to actually do the leg work. Sure many will die, but I'd rather be dead and fight for future generations than living in the middle of that mess

Thanks. Wasnt asking though. Thousands over what days, weeks , years, decades. Point being you have to stand up at some point, bringing their butts over here doesn't solve anything but create headaches for the U.S. There's other ways to find new democrat voters. Although the ones in the cemeteries did kind of let you down this year
