Maybe I'm missing something, but why does Trump need a 90 day travel ban when it's been well over 90 days since since he proposed it? Seems to me, the time he needed to figure out immigration policy has elapsed.

personally i would like the legal question answered and a ruling given. Hawaii v Trump created a new doctrine and i would like the sc to uphold it or not for future use.

Maybe the Travel Ban should extend to Europe, since they're having the problems. Likely with their own citizens and not foreigners.

If they continue to welcome terrorists with open arms, the result is their problem. We need to take care of America.

The Manchester bomber and his parents were Libyan "refugees." Get a clue.

The bomber was born in Manchester.

The common denominator of all terrorists is Mooslime-ism.

The Georgia State researchers report that the database catalogs 110 terrorist attacks in the U.S. over the most recent five-year span period in the database. (Globally, there were more than 57,000 terrorist attacks during that period.) In some cases, the media tended to report several attacks perpetrated by the same people as a single combined story; following their lead, the researchers reduce the number to 89 attacks.

...

For those five years, the researchers found, Muslims carried out only 11 out of the 89 attacks, yet those attacks received 44 percent of the media coverage. (Meanwhile, 18 attacks actually targeted Muslims in America. The Boston marathon bombing generated 474 news reports, amounting to 20 percent of the media terrorism coverage during the period analyzed. Overall, the authors report, "The average attack with a Muslim perpetrator is covered in 90.8 articles. Attacks with a Muslim, foreign-born perpetrator are covered in 192.8 articles on average. Compare this with other attacks, which received an average of 18.1 articles."

...

Such fears are indeed misplaced. Your risk of being killed in a jihadist terror attack in the last 15 years amounted to roughly 1 in 2,640,000. Even if you stretch the period back to include 9/11, the risk would still just have been 1 in 110,000. Your lifetime risk of dying in a lightning strike is 1 in 161,000, and your chance of being killed in a motor vehicle crash is 1 in 114. Given that our government has already squandered more than $500 billion on homeland security, while encroaching on our liberties, it is vital that Americans keep the threat of terrorism in perspective. This new study is one small step in that direction.

Maybe you missed the part where he declared a national emergency, and said it was imperative that it be enacted immediately? He said 90 days should be enough to clear up the emergency, and we're well past that...as the OP stated.

the legal decisions used need to be ruled upon. The precedents they have created can be used for more than just a travel ban.

I don't think he really needed the ban and the court challenges are actually the best thing that could have happened to him.

The legal issue has already been ruled upon, and has been part of U.S law forever. When trump made this about Muslims, and further granted waivers to Christians, it was game over.

He can change his rhetoric all he wants, but the EO is illegal, and will remain so.

Well obviously it wasn't long enough, they're still at it. We need to be proactive and not wait to take action until people get killed.

And to think Hillary campaigned on bringing 800k Syrians over......dumb.

She's not that dumb, she didn't want them to live in her neighborhood. She wanted many of them to live in mine.

How do they welcome terrorists? Most of the attacks have been home-grown.

so we wait until Americans die on our soil. THEN apply the ban?

Typical liberal logic, never thinking ahead

And the reason we still need a ban more than 90 days out is that Trump had intended on first issuing a 90 day ban and then extending it IF need be moving forward.

You can explain things to liberals but can't make them think for themselves it seems
