Current Events:
Syrian Family Turned Back at Airport
A Christian, Syrian family with
their Visas in hand, were turned around at the airport because Donald Trump had
just signed the executive order. This executive order denies citizens from
seven different countries, including Syria. They finally fled war-torn Syria,
and with 16 suitcases they were on their way to start a new, safe life in
America. This family had worked 15 years to join their other family members in Pennsylvania.
The family was detained when they got to the airport and then they were put on
a flight back to the Middle East. Keep in mind that there have been zero acts
of terrorism caused by Syrian refugees. The mayor of Philadelphia is “sickened”
by this situation.
This is absolutely ridiculous. This
family already had permission to enter the United States with their Visas, and
everything was perfectly legal, until this old man that looks like a leather
handbag all of the sudden signed a piece of paper denying their entrance. Imagine
finally leaving all of the pain and persecution that was forced upon you, and
you finally get a chance to live in a place where your religion can be accepted,
and then just moments before you are finally free, one signature prevents you
from that dream. There are so many stories in the news talking about how
families are being split apart because of this executive order and it is
absolutely heart breaking. I hope Donald Trump figures out what the heck he is
doing in office soon because so far with his decision to sign this executive
order, and his decision to cut
government arts funding makes me infuriated.
Donald doesnt realize what he is doing. He is going to isolate us from the rest of the world. Then things will cost so much money.
ReplyDeleteIt is sad that some families have to deal with this. It's not okay if they have already had permission to come into the US
