Proponents argue that this strategy would bolster national security by minimizing the risk of potential terrorists entering the country. Enhanced screening processes, once implemented, would provide a more thorough assessment of applicants, reducing the likelihood of malicious actors gaining entry. Critics argue that such a policy might inadvertently promote discrimination by broadly categorizing individuals based on their nation of origin rather than specific, credible threat intelligence. It may strain diplomatic relations with the affected countries and potentially harm the perception of the nation enacting the ban, being seen as hostile or prejudiced towards certain international communities. Additionally, genuine refugees fleeing terrorism or persecution in their home countries might be unjustly denied safe haven.

Yes. But not based on ability to screen for terrorism, it should be based on screening for any history of violent or sexual crimes
@9NXPTSZ6mos6MO
This is a tricky question as on the one hand yes terrorists must be screened but you can’t abandon those who need the help
@9N6X3746mos6MO
No, living in a high risk country is a reason to immigrate. Our government needs to improve it's ability to screen and implement deportation measures to anyone with a high profile.

No but there should be some form of screening so we can see who is coming into our country and so people don’t think our country is a joke who will take everyone in
@9ZSTLYK4 days4D
Banned is too strong of a word. Its also too vague. People should be allowed in but screened in a centre
@9ZS363S5 days5D
No, they should be allowed seek asylum but have to be documented/ vetted and we need to improve housing for natives
@9ZRZZFN5 days5D
I don’t think they should be banned but definitely screened for criminal records and judged on accordingly
@9ZRXHFK5 days5D
I believe the government should house everyone in the country including immigrants and then begin bringing more immigrants in when we have the capacity
