Florida mayor bans Donald Trump after his call for Muslim ban in US


St. Petersburg (Florida): A Florida mayor says he's banning Donald Trump from his city after the Republican presidential candidate called for the U.S. to stop Muslims from entering the country.
Playing off of Trump's earlier words, St. Petersburg Mayor Rick Kriseman tweeted Monday that he was banning Trump "until we fully understand the dangerous threat posed by all Trumps."
"I am hereby barring Donald Trump from entering St. Petersburg until we fully understand the dangerous threat posed by all Trumps,"  Kriseman wrote on his Twitter account.
His tweet has been been retweeted over 5,000 times in five hours of the post.

Trump's proposed ban is in response to what he called hatred among "large segments of the Muslim population" toward Americans.
Trump's campaign said in a statement that such a ban should stand "until our country's representatives can figure out what is going on." The statement added that the Republican front-runner's proposal comes in response to a level of hatred among "large segments of the Muslim population" toward Americans.
"Donald J. Trump is calling for a total and complete shutdown of Muslims entering the United States until our country's representatives can figure out what is going on," a campaign press release said.
Trump's proposal was quickly condemned by other Republican and Democratic presidential candidates.
