[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]“When I asked every time to have my phone back so I could tell them about the situation, the officer refused and told me to sit back in [my] position and not move at all,” he wrote. “After the 5 hours ended, she called me into a room , and she started screaming at me. She said that she found people posting political points of view that oppose the US on my friend[s] list.”

Above comes from the Harvard Crimson article but
was omitted from the initial thread quote.

Why do we let students into the US that don't like us?
It seems there are plenty of international students
that like us and want to study in the US.

It looks like there was problematic material on the
student's phone.

I have plenty of Facebook friends who post political points of view that I don’t agree with. Don’t you? Or have they all unfriended you? He didn’t post any of it or like any of the posts. [/quote]

Right, but neither the two of you are applying for a student visa from a location that is known to be a hotbed of activities that are hostile to US and our allies. Imagine your kid wants to have a sleepover with a friend from school, he is from a part of the neighborhood with a lot of drug use and domestic violence - lets say a trailer park. Are you going to have second thoughts about that kid coming over to sleep in your house? How many of you are going to sit down with your child and say "I don't want you hanging out with him". Is this fair to that kid from the trailer park? Life is not fair. [/quote]

I'd be more concerned if I saw them wearing a MAGA hat, today's equivalent of a white hood.[/quote]
