Sadly sorting by date doesn't work due to someone not using a sort friendly date format. By my count approximately 50% of terror attacks in the US during the past decade were jihad related. "Patently false" stands.
Trump has not banned people of a specific religion from entering the country. He has banned all people of any religion from seven specific countries from entering the country. He has not banned any members of any religion from outside those countries from entering this country.
Countries which he has not banned people from include (In order of Islamic population percentage from wikipedia's list here https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Islam_by_country#Table) Maldives, Mauritania, Afghanistan, Tunisia, the Western Sahara, Morocco, Tajikistan, Mayotte, Turkey, Azerbaijan, Comoros, Niger, Algeria, Palestine, Saudi Arabia, Djibouti, Uzbekistan, Pakistan, Senegal, Kosovo, Gambia, Mali, Jordan, Turkmenistan, and Egypt. These are all countries with 90%+ Muslim populations.
If we go for a simple 50%+ add another 20 or so majority Muslim countries to the list.
I'm pretty sure the whole Jose portion should be considered too. I mean, I can't count the number of times I've been visiting friends in Italy and accidentally asked them "Dov'รจ Jose bagno?"
As usual, this is one of things with more than one interpretation, not all of which are bad things. Obama's admin mandated federal oversight of several police departments and there was nary a peep of anything except support for it. Suddenly when Trump threatens to do the same he's a totalitarian monster creating a police state. (which we're ALREADY in, btw, and have been since at least early Dubya)
Maybe folks could wait and see what his actual plan is before flipping shit and spewing FUD. It could very well be that his plan is to fix the problems in police behaviour that led to there being an anti-police atmosphere.
And Tim, your "counter-examples" in no way showed that there isn't an anti-police atmosphere (there is one). You merely showed the police often deserve such an atmosphere. That's a different thing.
Huh, you're correct. The linked article specifically says Friday MORNING. Trump had been president for a negative amount of time at that point.
One last minute hurrah for Obama's shitting upon the constitution, I guess.
I freely grant that I don't expect better from Trump in the years to come, but this is definitely part of the usual Trump bashing by trying to conflate other's actions with his.
