This Muslim ban is fucking disgusting. It is straight-up deplorable that American permanent residents are being blocked from coming back into the country where they live, work and study just because of their country of birth. I cannot even at today. It is so, so, so fucked up.

OK this comment wasn't enough of a rant. I ranted more in my personal journal -> http://amw.livejournal.com/268191.html This is horrifying.

This is horrifying. I just read it also includes green card holders too.

There was a twitter account yesterday posting the stories of Jewish refugees who were murdered after being turned away from the United States in 1939.

So disgusting. I want to say I can't believe it, but no, I can. He's a fucking piece of shit and we've known it for a long time.

I'm seriously disgusted and horrified by this, beyond pretty much any words I could say on the matter because it affects people I know personally and love. And Trump's only been president a week. A week. I shudder to think what's going to happen in the weeks to come.
