On this note, I would encourage people to visit India (my country). I think the general perception people have (or had) about India is poor people all over the place begging. But, you will be amazed at how demographics (language, food, culture, day to day way of living) change for every 100 miles and still we stick together irrespective of countless language, religion, caste and cultural differences.

But, on the other hand, I'm also amazed that with so many people in US carrying guns in their daily lives, it is a miracle that most people are walking and living and doing some great things. Whatever it is, this whole gun culture is beyond my comprehension and I think it is good thing.

This is completely the USA's own responsibility to fix. This is your responsibility to fix. Don't expect anyone to risk life and limb for your failures.

Why?

Why bother risking personal harm to visit a country that expressly doesn't seem to want you?

Edit: Would down-voters like to comment on why this isn't a valid stance?

The country wants you to visit! Please don't mistake the misguided actions of a few as the opinion of the entire country.

While this particular incident is the action of the one nutter, 63m people voted for Trump despite his anti Muslim, anti Mexican, etc. rethoric & his alt-right team. So I'd have questions about what the opinion of the entire country actually is. If I were a person of colour/muslin faith I'd be even more reluctant.

Despite all harassment that you'll receive at the border an the snide comments you'll receive from the people, we want you here!

I agree with your opinion. Why visit a country that elected a President that completely opposes immigrants coming into his country? USA's President has made it very clear that the country doesn't want any immigrants. I know that he's facing a lot of backlash and most people here would say that they're not with the same view as Trump, but guess what? Trump calls the shots for at least the next 4 years. It is extremely saddening, but the United States government is officially showing immigrants the finger.

I don't feel it is valid because it is rather nonsensical to group an entire country of 300 plus million into the same teaspoon of, at most, a handful of mentally insane killers.

It's not about saying everyone or even most people in the US are racist. It's about considering whether a visit would be marred by the current miasma of (institutional?) racism/anti-immigrant sentiment.

For example: would you, as a US citizen, choose to visit Iran vs going somewhere else?
