muslim nations: On the day after U.S. President Donald Trump signed an executive order on Friday temporarily closing the country's borders to all refugees, immigrants from seven predominantly Muslim nations and indefinitely barring Syrian refugees, Penn took to Instagram to share his disapproval, according to CTV. One particularly mean comment below his post caught the actor's eye. The actor said the generous donations have come from all 50 U.S. states and 44 different countries, with the highest contributions from those other countries coming from Canada. Because you don't belong in this country you F ing joke, the message read. Penn shared the screengrab of message and wrote Donating to Syrian refugees in the name of the dude who said I don't belong in America on the site Crowdrise. Rather than respond to the online troll directly, the actor, who was born to Indian immigrants in New Jersey, took a screengrab of the comment and used it to create a crowdfunding campaign with a goal of 2,500 for Syrian refugees on Saturday.
