#2Among other folks as well [0]. Of note, the US was not the only country to turn away refugees during WWII. Also of note, from what I've read, refugee immigration has been temporarily halted from certain countries with the exemption being refugees from minority religions in those countries.

I also read the same regarding minority religions. Although the price I saw was only citing a draft of the executive order. I wonder when, they haven't already, publish the final version.
The countries to which the bans apply are all majority Muslim, so the exemption would apply to non-Muslims.

Had similar exemptions been applied in war-time Europe the Franks may well have been saved.

And I thought all the innocent Americans (or as I'm not from America "people") killed by criminals sucks. As far as I'm informed being a criminal, an asshole or a despicable human being is completely separated from religion, immigration, color, gender, (feel free to extend this list) - people can be multiple things. Or none.
