8 German Exchange Students Denied Entry at Denver Airport
The eight German students who arrived at Denver International Airport Friday to begin four weeks learning English with host families in Salida instead received a lesson in U.S. immigration policies.
U.S. Customs and Border Patrol and Customs officers determined while questioning the students that they did not have the proper visas to enter the U.S., said agency spokesperson Jamie Ruiz.
Immigration officials decided the students would have to return to Germany on the next available flight on the same airline by which they arrived, which was at 5:15 p.m. Saturday. Customs and Border Patrol held the students in a room at the airport until they boarded that flight.
The debacle left the students exhausted and resulted from immigration officials applying regulations differently than they had in the past, said Salida resident Susan Masterson, who has coordinated the exchange program, Rocky Mountain Language Adventure, since 2012.
The students applied for and received traveler visa waivers to participate in the exchange program, just as other German students in the program have for the past five years.

No one is welcome in Trump's America

Learning a foreign language is compulsory throughout Germany.

No names of the students in the article ? Wonder if they were Muslim refugees  :whistling:

Sounds like existing law is being enforced under Trump that wasn't enforced when Obama was President. Hello! It's. The. Law. Obama not enforcing it doesn't repeal that law. IOW, the outfit who organized these students' trip F'ed up. Not that facts matter on DU.

Now, you want to talk about shifting standards, different countries recognize passports in their final year differently. Some refuse to accept a passport that is within 3 months of expiring, other countries won't accept when it's within 6 months of expiring. Some countries change their "standard" without notice. Welcome to real life.

Another link from a Denver news station.  Link

Should I be a bit suspicious that the video link that shows some young actual German kids for this story are the same group that were here in Aug, 2016?  :whatever: Link

  A spokesperson from that office said he is prohibited from speaking about specific cases due to privacy law. But he also noted the CBP denies entry to an average of 700 people a day. That’s less than 1/10 of one percent of the 1 million people admitted daily.

Holy horse shoes, 1 million people admitted daily. ???

I wonder how many people Obama let in who should not have been let in. ?

They should have taken them to Gitmo and waterboarded them till they confessed. Then the special prosecutor could have brought them in front of the grand jury for an indictment for collusion, treason and all that good shit. :thatsright: :thatsright: :thatsright: :thatsright:
