Where was all the outrage when Obama added these countries to the the unsafe countries list. Or when he was drone bombing weddings?
It's not a ban it is a 90 day suspension on citizens from mostly failed states entering the US,green card holders are being allowed back in
Immigration is a privelege not a right ,countries have every right to decide who can enter their borders

I'd imagine quite a few of the airport protesters are being paid to be there

Ah would you stop.
Number of US citizens killed in terrorist acts by citizens from these countries: 0
Yet Saudis are fine.
I think you'll find there was plenty of outrage over Obama's drone strikes. Maybe not to the extent we are seeing against Trump but still a lot.

Why do you feel the need to even ask this question though? You think Trump is being treated unfairly in comparison? Or Obama was treated too softly?

Not every protest is full of people paid to be there.

I don't see why people can't just call something terrible when it is terrible without having: "Oh Obama did terrible stuff too and no-one said anything so why is Trump not getting a free pass too" or "Hillary would have done terrible stuff as well".

Attempting to minimize the impact of these issues is disgusting imo.

Seen that, I have a black one for my phone and I don't care it doesn't look as pretty. I want it protected. Lucie has managed to smash 2 phone screens in the last 2 years. And she is paying for this herself and those are a bit more expensive than the one I have

I just didn't want to commit to buying one and it didn't fit.

I have this one, its great

I need to buy a set of small weights, to contain at a minimum:

2 * 10kg
2 * 7kg
2 * 5kg

Where in (preferably North) Dublin would a man buy such a thing?

Buy metal ones, DON'T buy the plastic covered ones!

Psst... This is part of Trump's strategy. He does so many things that it's impossible to react to all of them appropriately. You end up over/underreacting the wrong things at the wrong time. Unless you're paying full attention, continually reevaluating priorites and carefully choosing your battles, you'll be constantly on the wrong foot. Reacting appropriately is extremely difficult and draining. There are so many things to deal with at once, the easiest thing is to just say "fuck it", and roll over.

It's political Blitzkrieg.

He's going to stiff Mexico on NAFTA and then Mexico will stop honouring US patents on pharmaceuticals.


Banning getting out on the back and the military leaders getting disinvited is going to get military decisions made without military heads involvement. That's going to be very dangerous.

Although, will he get the Republicans to pay out on his vanity projects? There's a case that he'll be forced out over them and Pense put in charge.

Not if he has to check in a bag imo. I'd still be there at 4 in that case.

Aer Lingus have self service bag drop and therell be nobody around at that hour, first big batch of flights starts at 7 pretty empty till 5am. That and no security queues worth talking about youd be down at your gate before 5.

Come on...

Serious question, did you even read that article or just the first few lines of speculation?
Because it actually confirms that the ban doesn't apply to lawful permanent residents and dual citizens.

Trump signed the order very quickly. Before the DHS had got policies in place. This prompted confusion and speculation from the media for a day or two. This was since clarified by the Trump administration and Homeland Security.
You are clinging to that confusion for the sake of your own agenda. It's really bizarre.

American media is ridiculous, political commentators from both sides just spew nonsense at each other. I understand why they have this approach, but I can't understand why intelligent, reasonable members of the public morph into mini-propaganda-merchants the minute US politics is the topic.

Alternate facts was a ridiculous justification last week. But since then it's become the status quo. It's all very sad.

Real life isnt exercise m8, you might look great and be in peak physical condition but have you brought up 3 kids like I have?

No.

[TheDrunkenOne]

Quit smoking 2 yrs ago, lost stone and half last year and this year started multi gym with daughter. At moment was advised best to avoid free weights so alternate between treadmill, rowing machine, cycling machine and some arm / chest / shoulder contraptions. Still at the sip from my bottle of water trying to look knowledgeable between apparatuses stage. It's a whole new world there

[Hectorjelly]

I agree that immigration is a privilege and not a right.

I've heard this expressed here a few times as if its a self evident fact. Is there any actual reason, ideological or otherwise? Are you basing it on the ancient wisdom of "finders keepers, losers weepers"? At least psv has the excuse of his being a troll.

Why avoid free weights? Best exercise in there

[Mellor]

Real life is the best exercise. Miles better than an random hour in the gym or out pounding pavement. Look at old farmers with superhero strength.
Or the popular of domestic strongman event, "carrying all the shopping into the house in one go"

SPOILER

Bringing up kids is surely the ultimate endurance event. Not my cup of tea, but fair play to the heros that do.

Just to be clear, I can actually carry 5kg weights.

It was more the shock of trying to do exercises while trying to carry such yokes. Not something I had tried before but physio has convinced me.

My no 1 would be Drinkstore - in Stonybatter, they also have a website and delivery service. Last time I was in Dublin I popped into Baggot St wines, they seemed to have a decent selection.

[Silver-Tiger]

@ MikeHunt . Where are you based?

My fav bottle shop in Dublin is the Mace outside of James' Hospital.
The two boys that run it are seriously into their beer.

It's just a scaldy mace apart from that. But trust me the craft selection is outrageous.

I guess the old 'finders keepers' excuse is at the heart of it all right Though for me it is just a reality of the world flowing from property rights, inheritance, national sovereignty, all the rest of it; if we decide that immigration should be totally free and that the people living in a certain area of the world, whether they've been there since time immemorial or only a few decades, shouldn't have control regarding access to the territory they live in, I'd see the practicalities of that being extremely problematic in the short and medium terms.

A world where immigration wherever you like, whenever you like is an unalienable human right seems unworkable to me, though I haven't given it much thought so of course am happy to be proved incorrect!
