The US authorities can deny a visa or even entry for those already have a visa for petty, arbitrary reasons, including the suspicion that you might engage in "immoral activities". It does not matter whether it is legal in the US.

Other countries have similar rules.

> might engage in "immoral activities"

So they can deny entry to gay tourists and that would be okay?

If that's the view of the country, yes.

In a modern world view of course not but that's not what you saying.

Can I be pissed if a country like north Korea would do this? Yes. Is it in the right of the dictator of north Korea to decide this? Yes.

Which is as it should be. There is no right to enter a country if you are not a citizen, it's a privilege.

[em-bee]

no it should not be like that.

the whole idea of sovereign independent nations that can exist isolated from each other is something that needs to go away. there should be free movement for everyone unless they are known criminals (in which case they should be in prison). people moving for economic reasons should be stopped by removing those reason (create better living conditions where they are). and everyone else should be free to move.

my family is now spread over three continents and as many nationalities. none of us have the freedom to move around to come together where we want. it's ridiculous.

national borders need to be removed. freedom to travel needs to be established and permission to settle should only be denied if someone isn't able to sustain themselves in the new area.
