As you probably already know by now, Donald Trump recently issued a controversial order banning people from several predominantly Muslim countries from entering the United States.
Unsurprisingly, people have been quick to voice their outrage while simultaneously expressing their solidarity with those affected by the ban. Many people have been resorting to art to make their feelings clear, and Hank Green has gone one step further. "For every reply to this tweet with a hand-drawn message of support for immigrants, Muslims, and/or refugees, I will donate $5 to the ACLU," he wrote on Twitter. True to his word, he's already donated over $5,000 USD to the American Civil Liberties Union to help them in their fight to ensure that what Trump does is within the realms of the law. Check out some of our favorite drawings in the list below, and feel free to show your support by adding your own to the collection. Don't forget to vote for your favorite, and if you want to support the ACLU, you can donate to them here.

Lorelei, caring about something doesn't prevent you from caring about other ones. Or can you only have one idea at a time?

I read on CNN news that Greeen Card holders, double-citizenship holders and legal refugees with granted status will be permitted into US withing days after undergoing a throrough background check up. So not forever (as the ban itself isn't forever - 90 days for visa holders, 120 for new refugees) and something a bit different than in the picture... :x

Guys... you may not like to hear this and I know it sucks for those people who are truly good and are muslim... but the culture (especially the fundamentalist and extremists) that many of these people have are very different from more modern civilizations and it's already resulting in very bad clashes in Europe. Many of the men from these areas that were banned view women as second class citizens. The New Years event in Cologne (Germany) is a perfect example. Many women were dragged away by hordes of men gathered in an area and molested/raped. Rape and crime has increased because it is a culture integration issue. British Muslim polls show that 52% still believe that being gay should be outlawed. Many still hope that Sharia law will dominate. I sincerely hope this changes with time but it's an issue that is growing in countries that have allowed massive amounts of refugees in and they are seeing the consequences. ISIS also uses these opportunities to infiltrate countries.
Glad to see there's still people with good sense here. Mic drop!
Thanks Lorelei! Likewise!
Also, (I keep repeating this), it's NOT a MUSLIM BAN, so people can unbunch their panties. There are plenty of Muslim countries that were not included in the ban (such as Malaysia, India and UAE). If it were solely a religious thing, all Muslim countries would be banned. It's a regional ban (temporary, I might add), that prohibits countries with organized terror groups from entering the U.S. I know the liberals would welcome jihadists with open arms, but there is the rest of the country to consider, y'know. no big deal. So many emotions, so little arguments based on facts.
Jackie Cronin, there are 46 other muslim majority countries that are not on this list and are free to travel to the USA...
That's funny because none of the countries actually involved in terrorist attacks in America were banned. Places like Saudi Arabia, United Arab Emirates, Lebanon and Egypt. This is clearly an attack on the Muslim faith and we all know targeting people based on religion ends very badly!! Plus the ban doesn't make us safer it puts America at great risk by fueling the hate that already exists toward America.
It would be nice if the news services and their followers, like BoredPanda, showed the TRUE information - the restrictions are 120 days for refugess and 90 days for visa holders. Poeple with double citizenships, green card holders and permanent residents as long as the refugees with granted status will be let into US within days after going a through a thorough background check. I understand the frustration and all, but please remember Obama did the similar thing in 2011. To be clear : I understand it hurts "normal" please and I solidarize with them, however please spread accurate news.
BoredPanda is a wonderful site, but it was tainted by the anti-Trump mania. The role of the press should be to check the facts and spread the news impartially, but recently virtually all media outlets don't care about it.
Maybe now Islamic countries will lift their ban on alowing Israeli people into their countries.
I know. The irony right?
That little tidbit is kept out of the media, did you notice? Where's the outrage for all the Jewish people? How come it's ok to keep Jews out of Muslim countries? The hypocrisy never fails to amaze me.
This will never happen. The Muslim hatred of Jews is centuries old and bone deep. It's shameful that all the people crying for equality for the Muslim refugees have NO IDEA that they would never return the favor for them.
Islamic countries ban islraeli not because they're jews. Learn history better. Not just from wiki or YouTube for God's sake
