Actually, there was a period in the 80's during which US tourists had
to obtain a visa before visiting France. This followed terrorist
bombings in Paris. The French authorities wanted to restrict movements
of potential terrorists. The terrorist movements involved nationals of
former French colonies, and given various treaties it was only
possible to require visas for nationals of these countries if they
were also required from nationals of every country outside the
European Union -- including the US. Do you see the parallel with the
current US legislation?

No.
