this feels like a step back for the US, all these people being held back because of some arbitrary list 
shouldn't it be about who can contribute to society rather than where they're from?

this feels like a step back for the US, all these people being held back because of some arbitrary list shouldn't it be about who can contribute to society rather than where they're from? omg i cant even imagine having my fam from africa stuck in visa limbo 
like what if ur fam is already here but cuz of ur country they cant visit or move to?? its so unfair 
i feel for those ppl fighting this lawsuit, it makes sense that the ban is racial biased and not based on actual safety concerns. has anyone heard about the outcome of this lawsuit yet?

This visa ban thingy is getting outta hand fam . Like, what's next? Are we gonna start banning people from like, white countries or something 
? It's super clear that this policy is all about racial profiling, no cap 
. I mean, have you seen the list of nations on the ban? Like, Ghana, Jamaica, Guatemala... those are all major countries with diverse cultures and histories 
.And can we talk about how messed up it is that approved visas got revoked just because the country's name is on some arbitrary list
? Agnes Kyeremaa's kids are stuck in the States with no way to join their parents... it's like, what kind of policy does that?! I'm all for making sure our borders are secure, but this is just another example of xenophobia and racism masquerading as immigration policy
. The plaintiffs need to win this lawsuit ASAP so we can get some sense back in the system 
.I don’t usually comment but I gotta say, this visa ban thing is really messed up . I mean, if we're talking about people who come to this country with good intentions and wanna contribute to society, it's crazy that they'd be held back like this. The fact that it's based on countries with nonwhite populations being targeted is just not right 
.
I've got friends from different parts of the world and we're all about the same things – working hard, paying taxes, and enjoying life
. Why should people from certain countries be treated differently just because of their nationality? It's like, what's next? Are we gonna start profiling people based on where they're from?
I don't know how this visa ban is even being enforced without any real evidence or logic behind it. And to think that people are being held back from reuniting with their families because of some arbitrary list . It's just not cool, man

I don't get why Trumps administration would do something like this... it's not fair to people who are just trying to visit or move to America for better lives. I mean, what if they're good people? They've got families, jobs, and dreams just like us. shouldn't we be welcoming them with open arms? This whole thing just smells fishy to me
