Trump adviser is pushing a registry for Muslims
By Daniel Halper November 16, 2016

Donald Trump’s advisers have discussed drafting a proposal to reinstate a registry for immigrants from Muslim countries, according to an official who worked on a similar registry after 9/11.

The policy is being worked on by Kansas Secretary of State Kris Kobach, a candidate to be the next attorney general, according to Reuters.

It would require those coming to the United States from countries that have active extremist organizations to register with the feds.

A similar program, the National Security Entry-Exit Registration System, implemented after the terror attacks of Sept. 11, 2001, required “higher risk” males over the age of 16 to be interrogated and to get fingerprinted. The program also required those in the registry to check in periodically.

That program was in part designed by Kobach, who was working in the Justice Department in the George W. Bush administration. It was designed to guard against terrorists like those in al Qaeda who committed the deadliest terror attack on US soil in American history.

Since there is a precedent and it would only pertain to immigrants from perceived higher-risk countries, perhaps this is workable.

IMHO the only "registry" they need is a passenger manifest on a slow boat that leaks.

Islam is NOT a religion. It is a form of dictatorial government posing as a religion. Furthermore,they declared war on the non-Muslim world over 700 years ago,and are still at war with us.

Why do we let these people even come here to visit,never mind stay?
Anyone who isn't paranoid in 2021 just isn't thinking clearly!

If you have to watch someone, don't let them in in the first place. Simple, economic, legal.

A simple/alternate way to think about it...

Option 1: Let the crackhead pedo convicted rapist babysit my underage daughter but hire a few guards to do a background check, guard her 24/7 and keep him away from any contact with her.

Option 2: Don't empower the problem to begin with.
