Nope. This was Blacksburg, VA at the Cellar restaurant where I worked as a cook. Mary's mom was from Roanoke, so I got to meet her too. I shared a bunch of Carl Hiassen novels with Rick. They also stayed with us at our house in Charlottesville in the early nineties....

IMO the Travel Ban is just red meat for his supporters, esp white racists and evangelicals who cannot stand to have any other religion practiced in this country. Nothing about it is about terrorists cause the DHS has done squat in 90 days. Like the Wall against Mexicans and Latinos. Same hate, different means. Then later he can blame the courts.

It wouldnt surprise me to learn that Trump doesnt really care about this and is only fighting it to keep up apperances. Its like the Border Wall, it was just a way to gin up support among his alt right supporters and rage harpy Ann Coulter.
