There are loads of other threads. But MN aren't highlighting them. Why not? I demand to know.

oh low blow - if you don't agree the yemen mission was a success, dishonours the officer who died.

They always ask if you packed bags yourself and if anyone have you anything to carry.

Does anyone ever really say 'no some random stranger packed my bag, Fred asked me to take some Semtex over to his mum and yes, I am a communist and plan the overthrow of the US government'?

It's an Esta from the UK. Can't remember any odd questions though.

Stupid or not, Kelly did announce the measure.

Could the point be to enable more harassment ?

Or more accurately announced he was thinking about it.

What's this 'a' word, merry?

If anyone wants a jolt out of Trump horror & has Netflix, i got a big splash for Michael Bolton's Big, Sexy Valentine's Day Special when I logged into Netflix just now. It's hard to convey the full horror of a naked Michael Bolton writhing (almost) naked in red satin à la American Beauty, but it momentarily took my mind off Trump.

So that's the story - people FROM THOSE 7 COUNTRIES could have to give their password

That and a few others, one the reasons Obama put them on the list in the first place was because they didn't share information, nor have the capabilities of collecting said info

Too many nakeds in my last post, but you get the jist.

illegitimate I feel the same, I mean this ban (although temporarily stopped) allows the officials to judge each situation 'case by case', there is no known criteria, it is therefore very much open to abuse and although I agree the fact that checking their passwords at the airport may be a made up story, the fact remains that the underlying sentiment is that they could use arbitrary reasons to pull someone aside and detain them

I remember being asked if I was going to undertake terrorist activities on my US entry form

Channel 4 doing item on alt right grooming teens right now

There is a video of the committee hearing online.

It's 5 hours long though. But what he said will be on there.

Watching C4 now and there's a piece on the alt right.A lot of young pp getting indoctrinated and radicalized online. Bloody scary!

What we were talking about earlier, and the fact that it's fun to troll conservatives. They see if as funny, and breitbart has used humour to great effect.

There's a white toff on C4 quoting the book, The Bell Curve, which states that black and Mexican pp have a lower IQ than whites. Load of bollocks but pp are believing this stuff. Chilling

IQ tests have a white MC bias though - is that what he means or is he just being a good old racist?

They've been groomed. Child protection is supposed to track extremist grooming. This has been going on for 7 years according to this report.
Illegal? Race relations act?

Oh yes, had the discussion about IQ tests on here before. What does the IQ test mean?

Finally, a president who's willing to call Radical Nordstromic Terrorism by its true name.

The danger if you live in a bubble is that you start to think that people think like you and your views seem 'typical'.

Watching C4 debate...

No decision in travel ban case coming today, per 9th Circuit staffer

Thanks for the info ami

The only reason I don't think that they would check passwords at the airport is it sounds like an administrative nightmare not because I don't it is something the Trump administration would come up with - tbh I think they would use any arbitrary reason to detain anyone from these 7 countries because from everything Trump has said, and the fact he had fuck-all consideration about the impacts of the ban on infants/grandmothers visiting their kids, students etc it seems obvious to me that he doesn't see these people as actually human.

OMG - C4 news now

WTF is a ' paleo libertarian'??
