We've seen our citizens murdered, our civil liberties stripped, our money wasted, our soldiers sent to war, all in the name of stopping terrorism. Apparently, taking lives/liberty/money from native citizens makes more sense to politicians than simply saying "no, you may not come here" , to folks from certain dangerous countries.

Think about it. We're supposed to change OUR way of life and give up OUR freedom, under the guise of not offending (and trying to protect ourselves from) some folks from the Middle East who apparently have some "right" to come and live here.
