It's pretty obvious that few people are harder on the concept of Islamic Terrorism and preventing it than I am.
But some of the things I saw on the news today are quite disturbing: people who got on a plane with proper visas, who entered the country legally are being detained at airports due to Trump's ban. There's no reason anyone already enroute to the country, who is utilizing established legal avenues and submitting to the standard security checks, should be treated like a criminal suspect or prisoner when they arrive.
The bans that Trump is imposing have to be coordinated with other countries.
Various possibilities, scenarios and contingencies need to be thoroughly examined before making absolute mandates (such as how do you handle government diplomats, businesspeople, doctors, students, etc. from banned areas who are already involved in activities in America).
As Yoda said, "this particular formulation of it was rushed and not particularly thought through."
If the doors to America are temporarily closed to some areas, then people should be told at the point of departure, not detained on arrival! Many variables have to be grandfathered in. You can't just say that a ban was instituted at 3:00, so all Iranians on flights to the U.S. have to be thrown out over the Atlantic at 3:01. (I know that's an exaggerated analogy, but you know what I mean.)
