Khizr Khan's "Travel Priviledges Being Reviewed": Couldn't Travel to Toronto

[Dr. Arch]

Taking it out on him? Yes, I think so. This is petty as hell.

"Gold Star father Khizr Khan’s “freedom to travel abroad” is reportedly under review, and he says he doesn’t know why.

Khan was scheduled to speak at a luncheon in Toronto on Tuesday “on what we can do about the appalling turn of events in Washington — so that we don’t all end up sacrificing everything.” The two-hour event was to include a presentation and then a question-and-answer session.

But Khan was told late Sunday that his traveling privileges were under review, according to Ramsay Talks, which organized the luncheon.

“As a consequence, Mr. Khan will not be traveling to Toronto on March 7th to speak about tolerance, understanding, unity and the rule of law,” it said in a statement. “Very regretfully, Ramsay Talks must cancel its luncheon with Mr. Khan. Guests will be given full refunds.”"

Meanwhile, I'm apparently not even allowed to defend Trump's December 2015 statements supporting the Muslim ban on this board. Shocking! I've PMed the mods, but they have not so far responded about this edit: one has responded: "it could still be deleted for trolling. Such a post requires more reasoning than "it should be a Muslim ban" to really pass muster". Still don't get what this means.

BTW, I am of the firm opinion that Khizr Khan is an utter scumbag, and that while he is deserving of freedom of travel to other lands, it would be a violation of common decency to let people like him come into this country.

people whose children die in foreign countries for useless wars, which eharding detests too.

-People who cravenly and shamelessly exploit their son's death to advocate for electing a politician who supported the pointless war they died in against a politician who didn't, while waving the Constitution around as a prop, but actually not believing in a word of it, in support of a politician who desires to shred the Constitution against one who desires to preserve it.

lmao

LMAO

[Beet]

Wait, isn't he an American citizen? How can the government just stop him from traveling? I've never heard of this before. Regardless of what you think of the man, he hasn't broken any laws, and should have the freedom to travel to Canada. What is this, North Korea?

-That's a sign of cognitive dissonance, not a response. Now, it's not proof I'm right. But it is very much proof you are unable to come up with any sort of logical argument against it.

Well, the man did serve this country to protect the very Constitution we are govern by. It is true that there are some that don't follow it but, for years, the Constitution has been abused by politicians making their own political gain. I would not expect Clinton nor Trump to respect that.

I fail to see how Saddam threatened our Constitution.

I fail to see how Saddam threatened our Constitution.

and that is his own problem that he was stupid enough to fight a war for his fatherland, eh?

trump is a weakling who has sacrificed nothing but wants to diminish people who really lost things cause of their love for this country.

he is the symbolized figure of decadence and treason.

He's been an American citizen for 30 years.

[#TheShadowyAbyss]

Seems Eharding is triggered right now. I stand with Khizr's actions he made by attacking Trump, it's hypocritical for Trump to praise a soldier while pretty much attacking the community he is from. I'm sure my fellow Muslims feel the same, which is why I agreed with Khizr's speech at the DNC attacking Trump with the Constitution.

Khizr is an AMERICAN CITIZEN, I fully believe this is retribution for his attack on Trump. Wouldn't surprise me if that was the case.

[Stand With Israel. Crush Hamas]

This is deeply suspect. If it's true, it's probably an impeachable offense for whatever officials were involved.

However, it's most likely not true.

i have decided not to judge such stories until some kind of clear information if available...which isn't the case atm.

[Absentee Voting Ghost of Ruin]

Trump's Razor tells us that the not-so-little piqued dictator likely phoned up a mid-level bureaucrat and metaphorically dropped the White House on Khan.
