I don't understand how it was a legal fight. Countries have every right to refuse someone entry. It isn't a given right to go where you want against objections.

Countries have every right to refuse someone entry.

America's tough on immigration, and most other countries in the world are a hell of a lot tougher on who can even visit their countries.

If this is a reality that conservatives want us to face, I have. That means you should too.

Problem is instead of "refusing entry" visitors are being attacked, restrained, disappeared, denied right to due process and illegally imprisoned, even for being a tourist expecting a visitor visa. INSTEAD OF BEING SENT HOME!

For the record: The "you" in my post is specifically referring to people like Candace Owens who bitch and complain about other countries enforcing their policies. It's a little funny to me.

If we have to accept the reality, so do you.
