  So you're saying it hasn't happened in 4-5 generations? While certainly precedent, it's understandable people are worried about it.

    Eh, similar stuff has happened more recently. Like Obama canceling Israeli nuclear scientists' visas so they couldn't attend a conference. Again, these things have gone on for a long time, just not at the scope/intensity we see now. The lower intensity instances are rarely reported on and gives people the impression that this is new.

    No, I just gave one example. I could keep posting examples, but it keeps happening over and over again. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Immigration_and_Nationality_Act_of_1952 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Immigration_and_Nationality_Ac... "The Immigration and Nationality Act of 1952 deemed immigrants who were anarchists or members of or affiliated with the Communist Party or any other totalitarian organizations that plan to overthrow the United States as deportable immigrants. Immigrants who were successors of any association of Communism, regardless of name changes, still fell under the deportable immigrants. Immigrants who advocated, taught, wrote, published in support for communism, a totalitarian dictatorship, and the overthrowing of the United States were also deportable immigrants."
