    I don't think trump should've did the ban because people are trying to escape out of where they live. I like how Canada was saying how they'll take them in so they know that they are welcomed.
  •  
    I thought America was supposed to help other countries and work with other countries, not ban travel and trade to those countries.
  •  
    His executive order is causing mass confusion all over. First the Homeland Security officials weren't given guidance about how the order would be effect everyone, then Trump apparently never ran the order by officials at the Justice Department. then people who were in the air flying weren't allowed to enter because they came form one of the seven countries even when they had a valid green card and visa! I think that trump needed to have a better plan in place rather than just jumping in on something he didn't think enough about.
  •  
    Trump said he was going to do these things in his campaign, but now that it's really happened people feel they need to protest everything. I think these next few years we'll have the most protest ever.
  •  
    I agree with kenzie because people are taking it so far with the protesting when then knew this was going to happen when Trump became president.

What do Mexicans say about Donald Trump's wall announcement? - BBC News - 6 views

    "What do Mexicans say about Donald Trump's wall announcement?"
  • ...1 more comment...
  •  
    I think that the wall could be a possible way to stop a part of illegal immigration but the problem with that is how expensive it would be and also most immigrants come here on planes not across the border.
  •  
    The wall can stop illegal immigration, but the approach to it by the US isn't the right way to go after it. Mexican newspapers are asking the Mexican president to cancel his white house visit due to the wall.
  •  
    Would help to control the immigration and also that the people here and who want to work have more possibilities of work and more help and that many of the immigrants take advantage of the aid that gives the government and although others if working strongly and cleanly They involve and thus that way they all look that way

How to kill a Supreme Court nomination - 0 views

  •  
    Derailing a president's choice for the US Supreme Court is difficult. But it has happened eight times in the last half-century, through the kind of Senate combat that led to the 1987 defeat of Robert Bork and administration missteps like the 2005 case of Harriet Miers.

Iowa bill would let women sue doctor after abortion - 9 views

  • ...12 more comments...

    It is a women's choice to choose abortion but you have to make sure it's what you want. if you feel you made the wrong choice, you should deal with it because the doctors did what you wanted.
  •  
    I think that this is stupid because the article says that it's a difficult decision for the woman, and that they should get a recourse if they have mental health issues because of the decision. It's the woman's choice to have it done so why should she get money back for her mistake, the doctor has no choice in doing the procedure so they should not get sued for doing their job.
  •  
    It was the women's choice to get the abortion in the first place. Which means that they wanted the doctor to the procedure. It is NOT the doctors fault if you get an abortion and then feel bad about it. You should NOT be able to sue the doctor for emotional damage. I can understand physical damage only if the doctor did not do the procedure right and the physical damage is because of that. But emotional damage is total ..... Anyway, in the article it says "that many studies show that only a small percentage of women regret their abortions." Regret is NOT the same as emotional damage. Just because you REGRET something that YOU did does NOT mean that you can put all blame on the doctor because of a decision that YOU made. "Chelgren's emotional distress bill says a woman could sue the doctor who performed the abortion anytime during her lifetime." this means that you could have had an abortion 20 years ago and then sue the doctor. It doesn't even make sence and it is NOT the doctors fault for doing his or her job.
  •  
    I agree with Kelsi because it is the women's choice to have the abortion in the first place and its the doctors job to do the procedure. The doctor did not make the choice, the women did, the doctors are just doing their job. It's like suing a dog for peeing in the wrong place. It's just ridiculous. The only thing it will accomplish is putting abortion clinics out of business causing people to try aborting the child on their own which can cause a lot more deaths.
  •  
    I agree with kelsi, I don't think women should be able to sue a doctor for an abortion she choose. The doctor gives you a choose if you want an abortion. You can't blame the doctor of your mistake.Women have a choice and if they decide to have an abortion and if she regret later, then you have to deal with it.
  •  
    I agree with Sydney, this is ridiculous. It was the woman's decision in the first place, the doctor is just doing his job so I think it's unjust to sue them if they later regret their decision.
  •  
    I agree with Kelsi! The doctor is doing his job and I think that once a woman has made a choice to or to not to get an abortion, there should be a contract signed that before the doctor does the actual abortion the woman can not sue later in the future. Its not like the doctor is forcing you to get an abortion they are only doing it for the sake of the woman's decision.
  •  
    I agree with Sydney and Lauren. It was the woman's choice to get the abortion. Not the Doctor. They shouldn't be able to sue because they had a change of heart and thought they made the wrong decision.
  •  
    I think that when women choose to have an abortion they are giving the doctor permission to kill their baby. Its not the Doctors fault their just there to make sure you have the procedure done right. Everyone is aware of the emotion damage of losing a child.
  •  
    Its the woman's decision not the doctors. There just doing there job and if they could be sued for it then no doctor is gonna do it.
  •  
    Women should not have the right to sue the doctor for carrying out their act kill their baby, because with their body their choice saying, their choice, their consequence not the doctors.
  •  
    I don't think that women should be able to sue a doctor due to emotional distress after they gave consent to the doctor to go through with the procedure. If they have emotional distress they should blame themselves because they were the one who decided to have an abortion. Now if a doctor forced it then i can see why she would sue.
  •  
    i think that a women should not be able to sue a doctor for her choice of having an abortion
  •  
    I agree with Sydney, Lauren, and Landon. You made the choice of getting the abortion, and the doctor just did what you wanted. YOU should have made sure that it was the choice you wanted.
