You can put lipstick on a pig, but.....
After reading an article by the New York Times entitled "Don't Be Fooled, Trump's New Muslim Ban Is Still Illegal" I have definitely learned more about this new ban that is arising from our nations capitol. What Farhana Khera and Johnathan Smith are saying speaks true to many more people than the intended audience, which I think is for the people who know that this ban is wrong. That can range from male to females of all age groups. Frankly anyone with a conscious. Specifically I think it is aimed towards the people who are not too big of fans of the new President Elect, and people who support the freedoms that the United States used to represent.
As far as credibility goes Farhana Khera is the president and executive director of Muslim Advocates, where Johnathan Smith is the legal director. Farhana has her wits about her and she knows what she is talking about especially when it comes the well being of the Muslim people being treated the way they are. The author has taken the time to look into the intention of the revision of the ban that did not go over so well the first time cause a mass inconvenience and upset over the country. People being detained at airports and sent back to countries where they were trying to flee to fins a better life in the "Country of the Free" , but instead put through traumatic circumstances to show the true colors of the USA.
Upon revision of the ban, that was also turned down by all of congress the first go round, it now only bans the travel of 6 major Muslim majority territories. The change still comes as an upset to many activists who are protesting this ban again, many thinking that this would only be the first of an ongoing problem.
In my "editorial opinion" I think this is all wrong. I fully agree with the authors point of view that this is still completely illegal. Banning people from a country is like the author said and congress "Unconstitutional" because of a religious belief. The more this ban keeps persisting the more likely people of other cultural backgrounds will be barred away. Who knows? Maybe next race will be the Koreans since Trump will anger Kim Jong Un.
