People Are Posting Their Refugee Stories After Trump’s #MuslimBan, And They’ll Break Your Heart
When Donald Trump signed an executive order on Friday banning citizens of Muslim-majority countries from entering the US, and suspending the Refugee Admissions Program, he did a lot more than just anger migrant crisis activists.
The Muslim ban order has left legal US residents stranded in their home countries, or in airports along the way, simply because they hold passports from Iran, Iraq, or one of five other countries on Trump's list. These are people with homes, family, and friends in the US whom they are now separated from for at least 90 days, all in the name of preventing "foreign terrorist entry." Let's not forget about the thousands of refugees in Syria and elsewhere whose dreams of finding safety and peace are now crushed, and who may very well meet their deaths before the anti-Muslim ban is lifted.
Massive equal rights protests erupted at major airports across the nation, and the Trump administration is already buried in lawsuits related to the travel restrictions. Parts of the ban preventing the movement of Green-card holders have reportedly been lifted, but the President's discriminating actions have already torn apart families across the world and doomed the lives of others.

That is absolutely awful. I'm so sorry this is happening to you. If you don't matter in the US, come to NZ. You'll matter to us here!
Muslims matter to lots of the US. It's sad that Trump is the face of our nation :(

This is not my America! How can they be so cruel? I'm so sorry! 😞 I did not vote for this idiot Trump.
This ban is not only awful, it is also unconstitutional and moreover a violation to international law. Donald Trump is a full blown racist and USA has abandoned all what the country stood for. However, we won't give in. There is a huge movement against this b******t and as we all know will good conquer bad.
that is horrible and also what I feared. Not all Americans are supreme a******s like this man. Please know that we DO care about your life.
Just curious..how come you don't have a US citizenship after moving to the US for 7 years?
Trump and his cronies are crazy but can anyone stop them. I feel so sorry for you, nazanin. I can't imagine what you are going through. Apply to reside in Canada. Justin is the best inclusive world leader. Perhaps your friends will help with your cat, belongings and making sure you don't lose everything.
I do not stand behind this ban signed off by this clown of a president. I didn't vote for him and I can't stand for what he's doing! As a child, I was taught that America opened its arms and its shores for any who needed it. Now this?! It's absurd and so very wrong!!!
Why after 7 years do you not own an American passport? This wouldn't of happened if you had
I have a Chinese friend who lived and worked in the U.S., saved the $10,000 it took to apply for citizenship; she became a citizen legally. If this woman has worked here for seven years, she might have considered saving enough money to apply for citizenship; then she would have an American passport. Dual citizenship is a tricky business. This President is an incompetent man, controlled by a very bad man, Bannon. Bannon makes policy and Trump initiates it. Bannon has a wingnut theory about how the world works, and he is calling the shots. This woman has been caught in the cross fire. I don't know how Canada can help her; they can take her in, but they can't resolve her American passport problem.

Is there anyway people can help her get her dog? I mean, whl is taking care of the dog and all her stuff? I know, personal bellongs matter, but the dog is a life!!! Omg i just cant understand why... She was already living there for years, had a job, a house, a pet... Thats just so wrong!! :'(
And I'm a thirteen year old, and yet I was crying in the hallway of my school today, so worried about our future as a country. I even decided that I don't want to go to my dream school, as it is here in America, as soon as I graduate High school, I'm leaving for the UK. I won't regret it.
We see you, and need to all reach out to our politicians to support you and so many other productive and responsible immigrants to our country. I came from four people who immigrated into the US from 1600-1860. Trump also comes from immigrant ancestors. When we ignore immigrants we spit on our heritage as immigrants.
My heart goes out to you. Please know that his horrible ideals do not reflect what most Americans believe. Sadly those whose numbers are less are also the loudest. I am embarrassed by our President and ashamed of America. If I had the financial means, I would bring you your dog and move my family out of this country.
You do matter. What happened was the result of an incompetent, deranged President. I hope that good people will be able to resolve this quickly for you. A few months ago this kind of thing would have been unthinkable.
How could they prevent you coming home?! I'm so confused.. this is horrible. wow it hasn't even been a month and hes already screwing everything over. How could such a man become president?
My prayers are with you and ALL those banned from coming back to America because of this idiot. I think the power is going to his head and it is causing it swell faster than the oxygen can keep up. 😠😠😠

How tragic that stupidity has caused the US to lose this intelligent, articulate, productive young lady. Our loss, but I hope she will find a home where she is valued for her talents and for her humanity, and where she never has to be subjected to this kind of humiliation again.
I'm so sorry to hear that! I cannot even imagine your suffering. I'm praying for you, your dog and all people that care about you. What Trump is doing is madness, I'm so sorry...
That's not only sad, it's terrifying that your whole life is ruined by a mad man
That this is happening in our country makes me feel physically ill. So sorry you had to go through this.
All this is going to do is encourage home grown terrorist attacks. I don't think he will ban guns?? More people die in a day, than are killed by terrorist attacks in a year.
This just stinks! I feel so terribly sorry for you - may God find a way this will work out for you.
If you have legal status in the United States, you will be allowed to return. Have your papers in order.
I am so very sorry. This definitely not what america is about. I hope this is fixed and you can come home soon.

This is a sad reminder of Hitler's Germany after 1939. There were a few who got out early, went to Portugal where they could sail for the U.S. Some got to England via merchant ships and fishing trawlers. The Netherlands hid Jews, and many small towns suffered the consequences; their mayors were hung in the public square. Austria and Poland did not protect their Jews who had lived there since birth. Homes and shops were looted, bank accounts were frozen and looted. I don't know what will happen to those stranded in airports. Their homes and incomes are gone; they have no way to return, and no way to move forward. This man, Trump, is a descendant of a German named Drumft who came here and made a real estate fortune. Trump is German; his wife is an immigrant with a fake visa. His oldest son is in Mumbai bribing officials to erect a Tower on land fill. Tillerson's long friendship with Putin will destroy NATO.
I am astonished to see how some Americans, now we can safely separate the good ones from the bad ones by calling the latter lot "trumpers", do not seem to grasp the fact that AMERICA, oh great HOMELAND, exists beacuse of immigrants of all sorts (called colonists), and if someone were to study their genealogy they'll discover that they are every bit American as a teabag (pun intended). Banning won't stop crazy people from blowing things up or from killing others and it certainly "won't make America great again" simply because Trump chose to point the finger and blame on an entire ethnicity. In my opinion the real danger here is a r******d entitled prick who somehow made it to the presidential chair.
The amount of people in the comments agreeing with Trump is really troubling.
What a big surprise ! People have differing opinions about the same subject!

Justyna, don't bother. Lots of cheaper places to go that are just as good for tourists. Perhaps try Australia? Do you need to undergo an interview for Aus? :)

Trump is the embodiment of our ugliest darkest fears and worries. He has given voice to the darkness. All he did was make a simple plea to our most basic fears and look what happened. Many many were duped! My heart goes out to all those affected. As a white British male Teacher who has worked all over the Middle East and currently lives in the Middle East, I would like to state clearly that Arabs, Muslims and Islam have unfairly bad press in the Western World. They are warm, generous and exceedingly kind people. I have never experienced such warmth and generosity until I came to the Arab world. Arabs......you rock! If you watch and absorb Western media unquestioningly then you are indoctrinated and as big a part of the problem as Trump. Leave the main land, travel and talk to people and see for yourself. Biggest sympathies to all those affected. Trump has no place in history.

"Do you understand the pain we're going through? There is no need to leave us beaten black and blue. " ♬♪ No, but really, according to Trump logic he should be the first one to "go back to England". Not to mention his counter-productive measures putting the USA into state of emergency. People are already protesting all over the world, this is gonna get bigger if he, and whoever allowed him such moves, stays blind.
The irony is that he actually is true to his promises. A thing not typically found in the politicians we consider "reasonable". The world, alas, is moving into a very unfortuate direction.
Load More Replies... How many more times? It is NOT a ban on muslims. It's a ban based on a list of terror linked countries (which by the way was created by the Obama administration). Where was the outrage when Obama banned all Iraqi refugees for 6 months (DOUBLE what Trump has ordered) back in 2011? And if your answer can only be "he isn't president anymore" like that erases 8 years of history; 8 years of your life where you probably didn't blink at the very same situation, you've got some screws loose. Another irony - Trump has been president barely a week but that didn't stop you all attacking him before the inauguration. But when it comes to Obama, it doesn't matter anymore right?
Dude, Obama made a LIST. A little different than a ban. The ban Obama wasn't a TOTAL ban. It did not discriminate against religion (which, by the way, Trumps DOES-do your research). It also wasn't unconstitutional like Trumps. Trumps breaks the law, limiting people who went through the proper channels to achieve some sort of protected status in America. Don't be a freaking sheep. Did you even READ these comments? If you didn't feel shame in being an American looking at these, or didn't feel your heart break, then you are what is wrong with this country. Don't be part of the problem, be part of the solution! Obama also didn't majorly disrupt millions of U.S. Citizens lives within the first week of his presidency by making crappy laws that are biased, opinionated, illegal, unconstitutional, poorly thought out, and lacked planning. Trump serves ALL U.S. citizens, not just the select few that agree with him-and believe it or not, that includes visa holders. Keep that in mind.

These are so heartbreaking. I am only 13, and I have no say in anything. But, I truly believe that Trump's choices are rather reckless. My best friend is Muslim, and because of this ban, her father may not come home from a trip to Turkey. I feel so bad for her, and everyone else affected by this ban. God bless them.
Why, if some have been here for years, why didn't they become legal? Hmmm
here is something none of you idiots are any one of you citizens you said you lived here for 7 years didn't have time to become a citizen stay where you are
its only until the vetting process can be overhauled. Obama did it other presidents have done it sorry for the inconvenience but OUR security is more important than feelings right now
Obama sign the same executive orders denying illegal immigrants from the same 7 countries but never followed throw. Trump is following throw the his campaign promises and this is why Americans voted him in. Did these individuals come to America legally or illegally??? There's your answer. It doesn't matter if the are nice people if they came here illegally they broke the law!!! And that's on them not the US!! Now if they came to the US legally and followed all procedures to stay in the US this is a problem that should be corrected quickly.
SHUT THE H*LL UP> You all knew about the order BEFORE you went but went anyway. I didn't hear of any of this SH*T when Obama did the same thing in 2011.
You all knew about the order BEFORE you went but went anyway. SHUT THE H*LL UP!
This is really old news. This has been happening for a very long time. Ask why are they blasting the stories now? Not what u think?
What I'm don't understand is why these people have become American citizens by becoming naturalised to that country, then they wouldn't be having this problem
This is sad. There are both good and bad people in this world. One person might kill animals and another might spend their life saving animals. Same goes for everyone. Throwing out every muslim even the innocent ones is not fair.

This is probably the first time I mind having the "kittenificator".
Any single story underlines that to today's problems there are no simple solutions. In fact, these simple solutions will do more bad to innocent people than they do to stop bad people. It is particularly sad that this is only noticed if really harsh action like now is taken. Other, less harsh issues are just accepted, even though they are extremely annoying and again do not contribute anything to solving problems. Anyone still questioning why you cannot bring liquids in containers > 100 ml through airport security? It was a seaminly easy solution to increase security many years ago, and probably even justified for a while. Nowadays it is obsolete, but we got to live with it.
Some if these stories make me suspect that they are being held hostage by the country themselves. Especially Iran. Easy to do and easy to pass blame.

The lead story is based on a false narrative. The woman has not been deported. She has been refused re-entry, for 90 days. Unfortunate for her, but it is simply wrong to say she was deported. Disingenuous twisting of facts lends no credibility to the issue.

It is my understanding that this is a limited time ban. Just like all the others before it. Is that not so? And I realize I'm being nit-picky, but the woman in the first post was not deported. She left the county and was not allowed back in. There is a huge difference. And if she has been here for seven years, why didn't she become a citizen and thus have an American passport?
Doesn't matter if it's limited ban or not, Trump has no right to ban any lawful residents (Green Card holder or Citizen) from the US. Also, before making this comment you should've done some research. According to US Customs and Borders Protection, any lawful Green Card holders can leave the US anytime they want and can still return so long as they haven't been out of the country for more than 1 year. Also, an immigrant has to be living in the US for 5 years before they can apply for citizenship. The process for citizenship can take a while, according to American Immigration Center, the application process alone can take 6 months to more than a year, then they have to wait for the interview process and then wait again to be called to take the oath. So for all you know she has already applied for citizenship the moment she hit 5 years of living here, even then she's still a legal US resident.

The cool thing is that when the left finally "comes out of the closet" like this, it makes it very clear to see who is who. You may call Trump supporters the insane ones, but at least we have a grasp on facts and truth. (BTW) research why the electoral college exists when you're researching what Trumps exec order actually said. That is of course if you can wipe away the tears of disbelief that you're actually as stupid as we think you are. Libtards.

Where was the outrage when Obama banned all Iraqi refugees for 6 months (DOUBLE what Trump has ordered) back in 2011? And if your answer can only be "he isn't president anymore" like that erases 8 years of history; 8 years of your life where you probably didn't blink at the very same situation, you've got some screws loose. Another irony - Trump has been president barely a week but that didn't stop you all attacking him before the inauguration. But when it comes to Obama, it doesn't matter anymore right?
Dude, Obama made a LIST. A little different than a ban. The ban Obama wasn't a TOTAL ban. It did not discriminate against religion (which, by the way, Trumps DOES-do your research). It also wasn't unconstitutional like Trumps. Trumps breaks the law, limiting people who went through the proper channels to achieve some sort of protected status in America. Don't be a freaking sheep. Did you even READ these comments? If you didn't feel shame in being an American looking at these, or didn't feel your heart break, then you are what is wrong with this country. Don't be part of the problem, be part of the solution! Obama also didn't majorly disrupt millions of U.S. Citizens lives within the first week of his presidency by making crappy laws that are biased, opinionated, illegal, unconstitutional, poorly thought out, and lacked planning. Trump serves ALL U.S. citizens, not just the select few that agree with him-and believe it or not, that includes visa holders. Keep that in mind.

America is not U.S., it's a continent! I'm stuffed with suprematist minds. We should start to say Brazil of America, Canada of America, etc
Really? Bro, of the entire article you choose to nitpick this? Lol.
Load More Replies... Are any of you familiar with Thomas Paine's "The Rights of Man"? He's got a lot of good ideas, hint, hint. You'd think for a country founded on revolution, that the citizens of the U.S. would be more familiar with it. Maybe it's all that meddling with the education system - didn't teach history right.
These are so heartbreaking. I am only 13, and I have no say in anything. But, I truly believe that Trump's choices are rather reckless. My best friend is Muslim, and because of this ban, her father may not come home from a trip to Turkey. I feel so bad for her, and everyone else affected by this ban. God bless them.
Why, if some have been here for years, why didn't they become legal? Hmmm
here is something none of you idiots are any one of you citizens you said you lived here for 7 years didn't have time to become a citizen stay where you are
its only until the vetting process can be overhauled. Obama did it other presidents have done it sorry for the inconvenience but OUR security is more important than feelings right now
Obama sign the same executive orders denying illegal immigrants from the same 7 countries but never followed throw. Trump is following throw the his campaign promises and this is why Americans voted him in. Did these individuals come to America legally or illegally??? There's your answer. It doesn't matter if the are nice people if they came here illegally they broke the law!!! And that's on them not the US!! Now if they came to the US legally and followed all procedures to stay in the US this is a problem that should be corrected quickly.
SHUT THE H*LL UP> You all knew about the order BEFORE you went but went anyway. I didn't hear of any of this SH*T when Obama did the same thing in 2011.
You all knew about the order BEFORE you went but went anyway. SHUT THE H*LL UP!
This is really old news. This has been happening for a very long time. Ask why are they blasting the stories now? Not what u think?
What I'm don't understand is why these people have become American citizens by becoming naturalised to that country, then they wouldn't be having this problem
This is sad. There are both good and bad people in this world. One person might kill animals and another might spend their life saving animals. Same goes for everyone. Throwing out every muslim even the innocent ones is not fair.
what troubles me, this site had zero complaints about president barrack obama...and if you think a guy like that didn't have bad policies and did damage, you have ZERO critical thinking skills. now, back to your indignant trump bashing.
Oh. Obama is still president? No he isn't and what you so now is a rethorical method called Whataboutism

Load More Replies... This is probably the first time I mind having the "kittenificator".
Any single story underlines that to today's problems there are no simple solutions. In fact, these simple solutions will do more bad to innocent people than they do to stop bad people. It is particularly sad that this is only noticed if really harsh action like now is taken. Other, less harsh issues are just accepted, even though they are extremely annoying and again do not contribute anything to solving problems. Anyone still questioning why you cannot bring liquids in containers > 100 ml through airport security? It was a seaminly easy solution to increase security many years ago, and probably even justified for a while. Nowadays it is obsolete, but we got to live with it.
Some if these stories make me suspect that they are being held hostage by the country themselves. Especially Iran. Easy to do and easy to pass blame.
Question: How many have the green card, how many are legal? Just asking, don;t get your panty hose all wadded up.
How many have a green card and if they do, for how long? How many are legal? How many are pushing their visas to the limit and beyond? Just asking, no need to get your panty hose all wadded up.
How many of these people are American citizens ???? If you haven't taken the time to become an American citizen and become a real part of this countries citizenship then Oh well........
I am with you!! #HeadScarfProtest https://www.boredpanda.com/empathy-message-for-people-who-are-affected-by-mr-trumps-executive-order/
The lead story is based on a false narrative. The woman has not been deported. She has been refused re-entry, for 90 days. Unfortunate for her, but it is simply wrong to say she was deported. Disingenuous twisting of facts lends no credibility to the issue.

Load More Replies... All these sob stories of people not getting back into the US, 5years 7 years 10 years here etc, property owners business owners etc. I have a question for you, if you like it here so much why haven't you become a "legal citizen " ?
Its not a muslim ban morons. why these 7 out 50 majority muslim countries???????
And why aren't terror relevant countries like Saudi Arabia (where the majority of the 9/11 guys came from) on the list?
Load More Replies... It is my understanding that this is a limited time ban. Just like all the others before it. Is that not so? And I realize I'm being nit-picky, but the woman in the first post was not deported. She left the county and was not allowed back in. There is a huge difference. And if she has been here for seven years, why didn't she become a citizen and thus have an American passport?
Doesn't matter if it's limited ban or not, Trump has no right to ban any lawful residents (Green Card holder or Citizen) from the US. Also, before making this comment you should've done some research. According to US Customs and Borders Protection, any lawful Green Card holders can leave the US anytime they want and can still return so long as they haven't been out of the country for more than 1 year. Also, an immigrant has to be living in the US for 5 years before they can apply for citizenship. The process for citizenship can take a while, according to American Immigration Center, the application process alone can take 6 months to more than a year, then they have to wait for the interview process and then wait again to be called to take the oath. So for all you know she has already applied for citizenship the moment she hit 5 years of living here, even then she's still a legal US resident.
Load More Replies... Also it seems some of my comments are removed because I triggered too many libtards who have no idea what Trumps exec order actually said, or are simply here to reverberate in their own echo chamber of ignorance and stupidity. The cool thing is that when the left finally "comes out of the closet" like this, it makes it very clear to see who is who. You may call Trump supporters the insane ones, but at least we have a grasp on facts and truth. (BTW) research why the electoral college exists when you're researching what Trumps exec order actually said. That is of course if you can wipe away the tears of disbelief that you're actually as stupid as we think you are. Libtards.
Load More Replies... This absolutely breaks my heart. (P.S I'm not trying to sound racist or anything but if you look back to history, aren't white people like the real immigrants here.) (plus they should start talking about god because if they are actually christians, then they should know god was American).
God was not American but I agree with you about white people.
Load More Replies... None of the countries where the 9/11 came from is on the Trump list. Why? He has businesses there.
Load More Replies... Replace the word "Muslim" in your rant with "people holding guns" and you'll realise how ridiculous you sound.
Load More Replies... Is a repeated mistake a better mistake? I think it actually is worse. Your "sources" do not seem to be the most creditable ones, either, for they use "liberal" as a kind of swearword. And no, I do not even take a standpoint in US internal politics, in case someone attempts to flag me as belonging to either fraction.
Load More Replies... Not that anyone who uses the word "libtard" is someone worth responding to but.... Funny how you accuse liberals of needing safe spaces, when it's conservatives who want safe spaces from refugees, immigrants, non-Christians, Muslims, brown people, gay people, transgender people, and literally everyone who isn't exactly like them. You want entire countries to be "safe spaces" for conservatives.
