Are those people "in the higher education community" legally retarded?

Unless you're traveling without a proper visa as a noncitzen from a terrorist embedding country from a specific list of 7 countries that was formed under the Obama administration then you have no problem.

America shouldn't be open at all times to all people no matter what without vetting. No country in the history of Earth had functioned that way.

I would like to know the number of the people who could possibly be affected by this.

I'll set the over under at 10 and take the under.

Because our higher ed community is apparently incapable of evaluating facts honestly?

Sometimes I think F King needs a fist to the mouth.

Evaluating honestly? You have to know what the facts are before you evaluate them

directly affected, you are probably right, but a lot of the international community (including legal immigrants that are attending LSU) have friends/relatives that are affected and have feelings about this legislation. I'm all for outrage against F. King but this is kind of his job.

LoL. The Press Secretary ripped the media a new butt hole yesterday in his weekly briefing when someone said this EO was "unconstitutional". He said "unconstitutional to who? because it applies to NON-citizens and they don't have rights under our Constitution. You guys do understand that coming into the US is a privilege and not a right?" There was like 15 seconds of silence in the room. I laughed my butt off.

judging by the international outrage (hell, even Canada is bitching about it) its safe to say a lot of people care about this, regardless if I do or don't. To act like that isn't true is just to be willfully ignorant.

His job is not to pander to the .01% of LSU population and speak about politics. Its not to threaten LSU football and talk down about the people who support it.

The outrage is there because of the media and who is ordering it. No one said shite when Obama did this years ago.
