Mere hours ago, President Trump tweeted out support for the United Kingdom after a van ran over people on the London Bridge. The incident has been classified as a terror attack by the London Metropolitan Police. Following the initial tweet, the President followed up by stating that the travel ban was necessary to ensure safety and the courts should reinstate it. How many attacks need to occur (in London) before the people get smart and realize that borders and immigration restrictions are necessary? It’s not about hatred, racism, or xenophobia; it’s about vetting people before they enter a nation and putting certain precautions in place, just as people who lock their doors at night.

Many of President Trump’s critics will undoubtedly criticize him for the time frame of his travel ban tweet. Perhaps a few of them will use logic, as opposed to blind emotion, and realize that a travel ban could have stopped the atrocities that occurred tonight. London leaders need to wisen up and stop mistaking compassion for mass suicide. The truth of the matter is that not everyone who wishes to emigrate to a new place has admirable intentions. Some of them aspire to start a new life for themselves, but this is not true for everyone. There are some people who wish to wreak havoc, engender discord, and take lives.
