Quote:Whether or not it eventually makes it past the Supreme Court is not the issue. As of RIGHT NOW, there is nothing in the constitution preventing any president from banning anyone entry into our country. Using a racist dirtbag as an example doesn't change that fact.

Which racist scum bag are you referring to? Trump?


And, I'm sorry to tell you this, but just because a hypothetical law hasn't been ruled upon doesn't make it constitutional!! That's terrible logic! There was a time when segregating blacks was allowed, was it constitutional just because the ruling of brown v board of education hadn't been ruled yet? No. It was legal under our laws, but it wasn't constitutional.


Jurisdiction dictates that the power of the government can be imposed upon a person. Under our laws and constitution, due process is afforded to those which fall within said jurisdiction--this includes citizens and non citizens alike.


As a class, one would look at the hypothetical of banning all blacks from entering this country, and clearly would see this as unconstitutional...


However, when it comes to Muslims, it becomes more difficult for some people. Trump is playing off this fear and bigotry to garner votes. That's the definition of being a scum bag.
