What happened when people protested against the new immigration policy?

On October 29th, 65438/KLOC-0, local time, hundreds of people gathered in the international arrival hall of San Francisco International Airport to protest the administrative order signed by US President Trump to restrict immigration. ?

Trump issued a statement on the afternoon of the 29th, formally expounding his new immigration policy. He said that America is a country of immigrants. The United States welcomes immigrants, but it must protect its citizens and border security. He said that the executive order he signed was similar to that signed by Obama in 20 1 1. He said that Obama has issued a six-month ban on the entry of Iraqi refugees. In addition, the other six countries banned this time are also regarded as the source of terrorists by the Obama administration.

Trump said that the executive order is not a ban against Muslims, and he criticized the media for making false reports. He said that the executive order has nothing to do with religion, but an order related to terrorist threats and national security. He said that more than 40 Muslim countries around the world are not on the list of prohibited entry.

Trump said that in the next 90 days, the United States will evaluate and update the immigration review process. If the new review procedure is implemented, the United States will reissue visas to applicants from all countries. He said that his primary concern is the safety of the American people, but he is also very sympathetic to the refugees in the Syrian humanitarian crisis, and he will seek ways to alleviate their suffering.

On the 27th of this month, Trump signed an executive order and decided to suspend the entry of all refugees in the next 120 days in order to conduct a comprehensive background check. In the next 90 days, visas for citizens of Iran, Sudan, Syria, Libya, Somalia, Yemen and Iraq will be suspended.

These two days, demonstrations broke out in Washington, new york and San Francisco. Most demonstrators believe that the executive order has obvious religious discrimination and racial discrimination, and they demand that Trump immediately cancel the order.
