#SCOTUS ruled 5-4 to uphold the #TravelBan.

Many use “threat of terrorism” as justification.

But let’s look at the numbers. /thread

Countries that are affected by the #TravelBan:
- Syria
- Libya
- Iran
- Yemen
- Somalia

With enhanced restrictions on:
- North Korea
- Venezuela

[disclaimer: I have conflicting sources saying if Venezuela was still included or not. This bad has been redone so many times, Venezuela may or may not be included]

Home countries of the 9/11 perpetrators:
- Saudi Arabia
- the United Arab Emirates
- Egypt
- Lebanon

Home country of the Orlando/Pulse shooter:
- U.S. citizen, Afghani roots

Home country of the Sandy Hook shooter:
- U.S. citizen, Pakistani roots

Home country of the San Bernardino, Las Vegas, Stoneman Douglas, and Charleston Church shooters:
- U.S.
- U.S.
- U.S.

The countries affected by the #TravelBan are not our enemies.

This puts refugees and asylum seekers in jeopardy. This puts lives in danger.

We should be ashamed.
We should be angry.
We should be ready to vote. /end
