Customs agents detained seven people, mostly Syrian nationals, after they disembarked a Royal Caribbean cruise at Port Canaveral Sunday morning, according to a volunteer attorney with the American Civil Liberties Union.

Customs agents escorted the seven individuals into a room where they were held for 6 ½ hours before being released, the attorney said.

One of those detained was a Jewish refugee from Syria who has resided in the country for 20 years and her three children, who are U.S. citizens, the attorney said.

2. Most Mexican illegals did not cross the Texas-Mexico border

they entered the US legally on an airplane with a valid Mexican passport

maybe some even came by boat like the people in this story

The Great Wall of Trump will not stop 100 illegals a year

6. There are people in positions of power that are loving this.

They'll continue it, and expand on it, until they are physically stopped—no matter what the courts say.
A la Kim Davis.

7. A friend of mine was apparently on that specific ship,

as he posted about passengers being detained when they got back into port. Since my friend said twelve were detained from his ship, it's highly possible that passengers are being detained willy-nilly from all cruise ships.

God damn Donald Trump and his ignorance.

8. there is no exemption for jews or even christians if they look like "those people"

when trump talks about christians he means white european types. not dark middle eastern jesus christ looking types.

jews and christians are also being held and sent back.

9. While not really connected, the "stay" you are referring to deals only with deportations.
