Donald Trump on Proposed Muslim Ban: You Know My Plans

Source: Time

President-elect Donald Trump on Wednesday called the recent attacks in Germany and Turkey “terrible” and suggested that he does not intend to reevaluate his plans to ban Muslims from immigrating to the United States, boasting that he had been “proven to be right.”

“You know my plans. All along, I’ve been proven to be right. 100% correct. What’s happening is disgraceful,” Trump told reporters Wednesday when asked whether the recent violence has influenced his proposed Muslim ban.

Trump described the attack at a Berlin Christmas market as an “attack on humanity.”

“That’s what it is: an attack on humanity,” he said. “And it’s got to be stopped.”

The question was “Has it caused you to rethink or reevaluate your plans to create a Muslim registry or ban Muslim immigration to the United States?”

We can quit wondering if Trump intends to register Muslims.

Setting this up as a clash of civilizations is just not right. It's an abomination on every level.

Why are we supposed to treat the Muslim victims of Daesh's terrorism as 'bycatch' or even practically ignore them?
What is going to be the response when there is another Jim Adkisson, Robert Lewis Dear, Adam Lanza, or Jason Dalton?

Something is going on, and Trump is just the tip of the iceberg.

This cannot happen in our country. This cannot be allowed. We cannot allow our co-citizens/residents/visitors to be harassed or WORSE. And the 'worse' part is what I'm sincerely worried about.
