    Man, being refused entry because you transferred via Hong Kong, one of the region’s biggest air hubs, is fucking bizarre. What a joke of a country.

      Yeah, that’s not very typical. I’d like to make that point.

    Yeah I’m not buying this at all. There’s always more to these stories than meets the eye, and it’s usually that the person is telling lies.

      Generally yes…

      But, there are lots of people who in the past also made it onto no-fly lists simply because they shared a name with a terrorist too, amongst other things. And that was in the past.

      With trump, there really is no more to the stories. The guy has made everyone scared for their jobs, and rewards cruel actions.

      This is a guy who literally stood on stage and tried to portray foreigners as animals and dehumanise them, by saying they eat people’s pets.

      Don’t be surprised at this point
