A young nuclear engineer I worked with in 2010 and 2011 had family from there. The economy is really soft, They arrest foreign nationals on vacation for silly things like a man touching his girlfriends shoulder as he kisses her cheek in a bar, or kissing in a taxi. A vacation spot for westerners, I think not. It's not nearly as great as made out to be. Only reason to go would be business or architectural interest.

Are you a UT NE grad - like from the Pete Pasqua years?

I have no issue at all helping people to help themselves. Hell, I've been on several disaster relief/humanitarian missions. I've seen first hand what conditions people live in. We should help people make their own areas better. There's no need to just bring them here.

If Afghanistan, Sudan or Iraq adapted our exact same constitution, amendments and all, what do you think they'd be like in 100 years?? Total **** just like they are now. People make cultures which make areas great. People also make cultures complete ****.

Not all cultures live in harmony with others. You're not living in some liberal college infomercial.

Exactly right - look at Mexico, South and Latin America as compared to the US; and, yet, so many of our own disavow the thought of exceptionalism. Of course, at the same time the same people seem determined to reverse the trend and seemingly won't be happy until we are on par with the third world.

It's part of the globalist agenda of forced multiculturalism, deterioration of morals and perpetual Muslim-Christian warring..

You feel part of the globalist agenda is perpetual Muslim-Christian warring?
I think it's not a political choice, but a worldwide political response to the never ending militant arm of Jihad in non-Muslim or even Muslim countrys . However you may have something to add differently supporting your position.

That's because I didn't quote anything BowelBro. I simply replied to your ignorant post on assimilation.

You need to learn reading comprehension, genius!

Immigrants change countries... Countries don't change immigrants. Take a trip to Miami some time!

Dear presidents,

Recent regulatory and policy changes impacting international travel and visa holders will likely result in questions among our students, faculty and staff. Specifically, the President recently issued an Executive Order that limits nationals from Iran, Iraq, Libya, Syria, Somalia, Sudan, and Yemen from entering the country for 90 days, and places additional restrictions on individuals seeking entry pursuant to the U.S. Refugee Admissions Program. The U.S. Department of State has issued the following notice at https://travel.state.gov/content/visas/en.html regarding the President’s Executive Order, and we will continue to closely monitor for any additional updates and guidance from federal officials.

As you know, the safety and well being of our campus communities is our university system's top priority, and it is important that we remain in close communication as new information and direction from the State Department becomes available in the coming days.

Our System Office will coordinate closely with your international education offices, which will continue to serve as the primary point of contact for your campus communities. Please advise your international students, staff, and faculty to consult with your international education office for any individual guidance, as they would with travel- or study-abroad related concerns and questions.

Tammy Rosner, Director of International Education, will continue to be the System Office's point of contact for any questions your international education offices may have through the spring semester. Ms. Rosner can be contacted by email at tammy.rosner@usg.edu or by phone at 470-218-1744.

Meanwhile, we will continue to assess the impact on our students, staff, and/or faculty, and to provide you with updated information and assistance.

Here is what was sent out to University Presidents in GA and then forwarded to the students. I know what the overwhelming reaction by the students has been. I would predict there will be far fewer 18 - 25 year olds sitting out future elections.

Unlike you I feel a compulsion to help those less fortunate than I. I don't do it to the exclusion of taking care of my own, but I do feel a need to help where I can. Apparently, you don't. Just different philosophies.

Where do you start? How do you choose who benefits from your generosity? Why them and not someone else? And most importantly, why do YOU get to choose; shouldn't the .gov do it for you?

I seriously would like to see an answer

You could be right. I wish we could revise the eligibility rules so that the vote extends just to adults and excludes adolescents - actually having to earn a living to pay for your needs while seeing some of that income go for taxes certainly tends to adjust realities and political views.

Welp

Notably, in his ruling, [U.S. District Judge Andre] Birotte forbade federal officials from "removing, detaining, or blocking the entry" of affected travelers or "cancelling validly obtained and issued immigrant visas of plaintiffs." The wording would seem to mean that government officials would not be allowed to continue the practice of instructing airlines and border officials in other countries to stop immigrants from the affected countries from boarding planes bound for the U.S.
