FATCAT 60,978 Posted February 22, 2017 Share Posted February 22, 2017 We shouldn't jump to any conclusions, it could have been faulty computers or even a slight error in communication. But, it's very fishy atm. This kitten over here (meow) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dominic 11,922 Posted February 22, 2017 Share Posted February 22, 2017 Once again I'll reserve my judgment but this will cause a lot of problems for the 'special relationship' between the UK/US The hardest thing in this world is to live in it Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can you explain to me what is wrong with thinking that there could be a reason outside of what this CNN article wants us to believe as to why he was not allowed entry to the United States? It's a shame he was denied entry. There is not enough information given as to why he was actually denied entry though. This is nothing new. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

After the "travel ban" or more accurately the Muslim ban, there's been quite few cases of racial/religious profiling of Muslims who weren't even citizens of those 7 countries or never even visited them. You seem to be fan of conspiracy theories and the "CNN=fake news" narrative, so why would I discuss this further with you? It was also obvious which members would immediately find excuses WHY he was denied entry. He is a TEACHER. He had no criminal record. They denied him entry because they could, it's becoming a norm in Trump era. FreePalestine Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
lego 44,165 Posted February 24, 2017 Share Posted February 24, 2017 If it was a mistake, they'd apologize by now and offer explanation and compensation. Having a same name as someone on a no fly list is not excuse, there's this thing called fingerprints. What Trump administration is doing is called INCITEMENT. It's coming from the people in power and they're refusing to condemn or even comment anti-Muslim hate crimes which have tripled. Instead they're encouraging them by inventing fake terror attacks, by diverting the topic to security and terrorism and talk bs like "islam hates us"; as if it's entity, as if every Muslim or majority hates Americans and wants to harm them, even America's own citizens, who happen to follow that faith. It's scapegoating. FreePalestine Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Decodekid 31,069 Posted February 24, 2017 Share Posted February 24, 2017 I mean it could be different things. i remember when I was 5 years old and visited the US for the first time. When I got there, I was sent to a room for a random security check, and it happened for like 6 years every time I traveled there. It was all because of my name, not my race. hi Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The CNN article doesn't offer enough information. Thus, why I mentioned there could be an alternative reason as to why he was denied entry, which is fairly common. You are so quick to judge me because I don't believe 100% what a news article says. If you truly 'listened without prejudice' you would be more open to hearing opposing views, and not be so apt to label me with dismissive tags such as 'conspiracy theorist' and 'apologist.'

Watch the video above. He passed the security and he was still denied entry with no explanation. It's pretty obvious why, but you can still think there's logical or justifiable reason for that. I like that you paid attention to my signature, you can listen the album here ✌🏼 FreePalestine Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I still don't see enough information for anyone to be able to make a conclusion. I have been selected randomly for the same security check that he talks about. They swab your hands and then put it through a machine. It is hardly 'all over his body'. Who knows why he was taken off. Could be for a variety of reasons. Need more information.
