Piers Morgan:
All right, what if I was a young student at Columbia, there on a green card, British, come in, happy to be here, doing my paperwork, get to Columbia, and I start leading a group which is a bunch of white supremacists, and we start terrorizing black students in the way that they are terrorizing Jewish students.
In that circumstance, would we all be as comfortable with this? Or is it the reality, which was exposed by the mobs at Columbia, which is that for some reason, Jews get treated differently to anybody else when it comes to this kind of thing?
Because if that had been, honestly, white supremacists treating black students like that, they would be out of the country in 10 minutes. In 10 minutes.

What about if he had said all of this at his green card interview? Would he have got a green card? No. If he said, 'I support a prescribed terror group in the United States,' you're not coming in on a green card.
All Marco Rubio is doing, it seems to me, is taking it back to that scenario and saying, 'Well, if you'd been honest, then' - and, by the way, he was dishonest on his green card application about other stuff, which is another part of the equation, which might in itself disqualify him from staying in the country.
But the idea that he would have said, 'I support Hamas. I support a global intifada. I support the destruction of Western civilization. Now give me a green card to come and live in America.' F*** off!
