The purported anti-terror rationale seems pretty disingenuous when you look at the nationalities of the people who have previously committed acts of terror on US soil. San Bernadino was someone from Pakistan and someone from the US. 9/11 was people from Saudi Arabia, Egypt, Lebanon and UAE. Oklahoma City was an American. And every school, church, theater, etc mass shooting that has taken place over the past decade was either committed by an American or national of a country not on his list.

So what's the point of it then? It can't be about "safely allowing immigration" if we're not blocking people from countries that have historically threatened our safety in the past.
