Experts Say Trump's Muslim Ban Would Cripple Immigration System
Source: NBC News
Facing a growing backlash over his dispute with the parents of a Muslim American Army captain killed in Iraq in 2004, Donald Trump has continued to defend his proposal to ban all Muslim immigrants from entering the U.S.
Leaders in both parties have condemned the ban as discriminatory, counterproductive and probably unconstitutional.
There is another major problem with it, however.
A religious ban would be virtually impossible to implement and would cripple the current immigration system, according to more than 20 security and immigration officials surveyed by NBC News for a special report on how the proposal would actually work.

And notably read this part in the Bill of Rights -
[font size="5" color="red"]Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof[/font]; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.

It's not even lost somewhere in the text of the amendment, with some vague language. It literally makes up the beginning of the sentence and comes BEFORE the "speech", "press", "assembly", and "petition the government for redress" parts! There was no need for them to "survey immigration officials". That's just ridiculous. Any imposition of a "ban" based on religion is prohibited.
