Should people who do not like America's government, policies, way of life, morals etc but want to live here because their children can get a good education and because there are better living conditions in America and they are not proven to be a threat to America be banned from America, discriminated against by other Americans, picked out of a crowd as a threat to America, banned from going to sporting events, amusement parks, recreational activities etc just because they disagree with the average American way of life?
Why or why not? Explain your reasoning.

Denise I am not referring to illegals because I agree with you I do not think people should be allowed to come here illegally but I am talking about other immigrants.

What ever happened to a democracy?Just because you do not not believe in what your government does would be a rediculous reason to kick out your fellow country men and women.It's call freedom of speech which many men and women have fought and died for,past and present.Many died fighting in wars they did not believe in such a Vietnam and They still served because their Government asked them to regardless whether they wanted to or not.

Boycotting an amusement park is just Americans using their free speech. A company bowing down to the threat of a boycott is protecting its investment. The people who get banned from an amusement park because of their activities used their freedom as well, but it got a strong reaction and now they have to pay the price of others opposing them. That's just how it works. You may not like it, but tough.

ultimately! everybody is beginning off their eyes to work out the certainty and the data displayed right here communicate for themselves. After that great answer from gypsy_cat 345, i've got not got a lot to declare different than that human beings like Vanessa could look on the bigger image and make her very own checks, quite than believing in what the media prefer human beings to believe. additionally, i do no longer think of human beings could balme the Islamic faith for the strikes of ignorant so-referred to as Muslims who declare they are performing on its behalf. secondly, i do no longer think of Israel is basically a small u . s . that must be left by myself. If this replaced into the case it does no longer have waged an entire-blown conflict on lebanon, killing hundreds of human beings so as to regain 2 of their infantrymen who have been captured by skill of Hezbollah. shouldn't they think of roughly freeing the tens of millions of lebanese prisoners at present in Israel! Thirdly, Muslims have not got something against Jews. the concern is with the Zionists and Israelis. BTW, i'm no longer Lebanese. i'm merely pointing out what i beleive is the certainty

Just the opposite should be true. The right to disagree is fundamental to our democratic system. Just read the Bill of RIGHTS--1st ten ammendments to our Constitution. People's views change and we have elections every few years to see what the people think by whom they elect.

No. Freedom also means the freedom to hate this country. That's what makes our country great. Abraham Lincoln, Martin Luther King, and other great leaders would have been accused of hating America. In fact, they loved it more than anyone else.

no, we live in America, where disagreement is the whole reason of today's (and the future) existance of America,
where we are (to some extent, but not always true) given the option to disagree and for free thought.

The right to dissent is very American. Don't like policies, laws, politicians, vote them out. it's just that simple.

Absolutely not. Expressing ones opinion and conspiring to harm ones country are two entirely different things.
