    You haven't hit any nerve with me at all. I'm amused that we're posting on an American politics forum, and I'm the one who is American out of the two of us. Apparently, you're riled enough to be telling us how bad our country is (which you've been doing for quite some time now).

    But back to the original topic, apparently it is you who gets to decide what we should consider as "legitimate prosecutable deaths" in your imaginary court.

    Just wanted to get that clarified, even if it has no chance in hell of becoming reality. :(

    Actually, it's you who can fuck off, since you're not an American either, have no right to vote and essentially have no say whatsoever in the direction of the American political system. You can whine, of course, and you do. That's one right you certainly take full advantage of.

    All these non-Americans so obsessed with American politics. I wonder how many Americans we can find on Canadian political forums? Or forums of whatever country d08 is from (has he ever said)?

    I'm curious. Of the liberals on this forum, how many are actually Americans, living in the US?

    Futurecurrents lives here, as does Spike, Nitro too? Ricter is American, living in Canada. Fred - Canadian. Nine Ender - Canadian. d08 - not American (unsure of nationality and location). smallstops - French? (but not liberal?). Who else?

    The appointment of Sessions to AG confirms Trump means business in a big way on immigration and he is going to keep his "day one" promise.

    The AG is one of the most important Presidential appointments and the Senate will have no choice but to rubber stamp him. There will be no dickin' around wasting time wondering if he'll be approved or not.

    Whether you agree with his policies or not, its a brilliant move on Trump's part. He is not f*ckin' around. He is gonna be ready for day one, at least on the deportation front.

  6. If Trump hold his promises, then a Native American should run for President.
    And continue Trump policies. It's time they get their country back.

    You're making yourself look like an idiot. I remember you being ever so vocal when it came to the EU and Brexit, I'm an EU citizen, what business was it to you then? (if we follow your, frankly dumb logic). You should've kept your trap shut about it.

    I criticize all people and countries freely (including my own), and America isn't immune or excluded in any sense. Do you want people on ET to show their passports before posting? You would've done well as a KGB agent, you'd have fit right in.

    If you were resourceful you'd already know where I'm from but since you're not, I'm not going to tell you either.

    The Bush-era Muslim registry failed. Yet the US could be trying it again
    http://www.cnn.com/2016/11/18/politics/nseers-muslim-database-qa-trnd/index.html

    Donald Trump and his supporters have been all over the place about his plan for surveilling Muslims. The President-elect once advocated for a Muslim database. Then he walked it back. Then his spokesman said Trump never proposed such a thing.

    Then a source familiar with the incoming administration told CNN there will be a database and it'll be similar to the National Security Entry-Exit Registration System (NSEERS).

    NSEERS was a Bush-era program enacted shortly after September 11, 2001, terrorist attacks. It disproportionately targeted Arabs and Muslims and was a point of contention between rights groups and the federal government for nearly a decade.

    It was also a mega failure -- both strategically and, critics say, ethically.

    What is the National Security Entry-Exit Registration System?

    NSEERS, sometimes referred to as "Special Registration," was a program for registering non-citizen visa holders -- such as students, workers and tourists -- that President George W. Bush's administration enacted on September 10, 2002.

    The program had three parts. First, it required non-citizens to register when they entered the US -- a process that included fingerprinting, photo taking and interrogation. Second, it mandated that these people, as well as others already in the US, register and regularly check in with immigration officials. Third, it kept track of those leaving the country to make sure that temporary guests did not remain illegally. Violators were arrested, fined and even deported.

    If we let any of them in we should make them place their hand on a stack of bibles and swear to uphold all our laws. Then we can give them all a welcome toast to America in the name of allah's son.

    No. Just an American. You'll note that the country wasn't founded by the Indians. They were just indigenous to the region. I'm sure if we go back before the Gauls, your people pushed out the indigenous tribes as well.
