Keep the country safe but make sure not to be racist.
Look closer to home for the terrorists SMH
There are millions of Christians who need help. Bring them in first. As a woman I am apposed to inviting cultures that think women are not equal to me. We fought too hard for our rights and those of our daughter. May sound harsh but it is creating enormous anger amounts everyday people you are not meeting. This is a very explosive issue
Fact is, all terrorist attacks thus far have been from Muslims - not Jews, Christians, Buddhists, Taoists, Seventh Day Adventists, atheists, Satanists, etc. So, let's call a spade a spade and understand that radical jihadist Islamist Muslims have targeted everything and everyone not in accordance with it's stance on well, everything. Is it okay to be leery of such folk? I say, YES.
From what I understand, every incoming immigrant who comes legally goes through 40 hours of interrogation and 3 background checks. How much more do we need?
Freedom of mobility is a human right.
No, banning immigrants based on their religion is unconstitutional, but strict background checks should be enacted
Most of the "terrorism" is engineered by the CIA, Mossad, MI6 etc. The Muslims are fall guys.
We put Japanese and Germans in camps while at war. Are we not at war on terrorists?
no let only the real Muslims not the fake "Muslims" who are terrorists.
Religion should not be a factor of terrorism, however there needs to be a stricter screening process.
Let them enter the country but keep them contained. After all, they are asking for help. We can help and need not feel guilty if we restrict their movement and don't exactly provide 4 star hotel. I can see us being accused of something awful just because we need to maintain national security. That's not fair but it would happen, I'm sure. Do it anyway. It's the only human thing we can do and survive.
I'm torn on this one... It's crazy to actually consider banning a whole religion and it feels icky as well.... But the status quo needs to change as well... But I'm gonna say no... No ban but single men traveling back and forth should be watched more closely
No, but deport illegal immigrants that are muslim if they commit a felony

No, although we need to better screen everyone that comes into our country regardless
No, not because of any religious preference; but ban persons with a criminal record and apply stringent screening processes to any people coming from a country with ties to known terrorist or anarchic organizations. Keep them outside the US until the screening has completed. have the Federal Government increase their capability to do such screenings outside the US significantly.
No, all immigrants entering the country should be subject to extensive screening and background checks regardless of religion. Banning immigration based on religion is unconstitutional.
No but there should be thorough back ground checks and proper safety precautions should be taken. Not just Muslims but anyone that comes in and/or out of the US
No, but only after extensively checking each immigrant for territorial activities or involvement.
They should be allowed in once properly vetted
No, but increase background checks to ensure they aren't a threat
Such an open ended question. They should be vetted but that comes back to improving things
No, but we need to do a better job screening.
No, but the government should thoroughly vet all immigrants
they should go through the process to become a legal citizen
No because we should check their background and if its clear they should be able to go in and out.
They shouldn't be banned. There should be background checks though.
Banning immigrants based on religion is unconstitutional and immoral, but those from high risk countries must be cleared from terrorist affiliations first.
Investigate and make sure they are not high risk
No. Ban more immigrants, but don't target Muslims.
No, But extra security should be used.
No, but we need to improve the screening process and temporarily ban immigrants if the country they are from currently have a "high risk"
No, but they must be heavily investigated to make sure they are not a terrorist
No, as long as each individual has a strict background check and screening
Yes, if they are undocumented
No, this is extremely xenophobic and racist.
Yes, but only if they can prove to not have malicious intent
We should not ban them however, there should be a screening process for all immigrants, not just Muslims to decide if they are a threat to anyone, anything or national security. We should also increase back ground checks and screening and keep them in a designated safe area until they are cleared.
They shouldn't be banned but they should go through something to tell if they're terrorist or not.
All together, immigration should be restricted. Visas should only be granted to those who have employment or a place to stay arranged in advance. The 1965 Immigration laws should be repealed. Now, as for any bans on specific groups, I say no to. Immigration should not allow discrimination over such things.
Banning immigrants based on their religion is unconstitutional. Ban immigrants based on their affiliation with actual terrorist organizations and thorough background checks if you're that worried about terrorists
No, people from high risk countries should be screened more intensely
No, but we should improve the governments screening process.
No not unless they have evidence of terrorism on record
yes, but pay attention to the ones who really need it
Only allowed if they renounce their citizenship to their country and have a value to our own society.
Background checks are important
No, BEING MUSLIM DOES NOT MAKE SOMEONE A TERRORIST. There should be basic security when entering the country, just like for anybody from other places entering, but BEING MUSLIM SHOULD NOT BE USED AGAINST SOMEONE. IT'S THAT SIMPLE.
No but we should make sure people are not terrorists before allowing them to become immigrants
No, but ALL immigrants should be highly screened to the best of our abilities.
