I think a lot of folks think halting all immigration is a great idea. We are losing the "American culture", and just become a bunch of people who live in the same country and hate everyone who isn't from our home country culture, etc. Diversity is not a strength, but a weakness. As Jesus said, a house divided against itself cannot stand, and that is what we have today. It used to be that people came to this country and largely left their loyalties to their old country behind. Not anymore. Now we have people who come to the country, but hate it? So why did they come? I don't get it. Immigration should be ended for now.
This is the ridiculous thing that Trump said that led to his downfall. He should just drop out now and save himself the fall from grace...
They've been saying Trump is in free fall for at least six months.
“Can you cite one speck of hard evidence of the benefits of "diversity" that we have heard gushed about for years? Evidence of its harm can be seen — written in blood — from Iraq to India, from Serbia to Sudan, from Fiji to the Philippines. It is scary how easily so many people can be brainwashed by sheer repetition of a word.”

The historical norm is to keep unassimilable foreign elements out of your land, not invite them in. Those who recommend even a temporary return to this norm must be called names. Racist! Fascist! Hitler! Immigration über alles!
Once an alien nation within your nation is established, only desperate measures can provide remedy, if the matter is remediable at all. Trump has been called an unserious candidate given to name-calling by the very people now hurling names, as they throw tantrums and react to a most serious issue in a most unserious way. They claim to not want another Fort Hood or San Bernardino, but then propose that the desired different result can be achieved by doing the same thing over and over again.
They’re not just radical. They’re radically insane.
"I am truly perplexed that so many of my friends are against another mosque being built. I think it should be the goal of every person to be tolerant regardless of their religious beliefs. Thus the mosque should be allowed, in an effort to promote tolerance."
"That is why I also propose that two nightclubs be opened next door to the mosque; thereby promoting tolerance from within the mosque. We could call one of the clubs, which would be gay, "The Turban Cowboy," and the other, a topless bar, would be called "You Mecca Me Hot."
"Across the street should be a butcher shop that specializes in pork, and
adjacent to that an open-pit barbecue pork restaurant called “Iraq of Ribs."
“Also across the street there could be a lingerie store called "Victoria
Keeps Nothing Secret," with sexy mannequins in the window modeling the goods" and on the other side a liquor store called "Morehammered."
"All of this would encourage Muslims to demonstrate the tolerance they demand of us.”

They've been right. The taller they are, the harder they fall. It's going to be fun watching him tumble. And whoever wrote that needs to brush up on basic biology...

You make some good points. Diversity isn't always good. I'm not sure about ending all immigration, but we should end all muslim immigration. It really doesn't matter, however. As long as Obama is in office, the floodgates are open to anyone.
