There may not be an obligation to take refugees. No mater how you spin it, it is unethical not to help out. The US has had a hand in creating this mess.

Unless you are a direct descendent of Native Americans, you are here as a result of immigration....legal or otherwise.

Think about that when you are trying to slam that door shut behind you, so you can sit down and enjoy that Thanksgiving Dinner.

Why try to put a shiny finish on something they will hear their entire lives? Start them early and prepare them now.

They aren't sure about the Paris ring leader. Turned out the Syrian passport they found was a fake. They think it may have been planted to make people blame the refugees.

Why do liberals want to turn America into a third world s***hole? It's beyond me. The more they bring here the closer we get. It's like importing cancer to your body.

There is no obligation to take in Syrian or other refugees.

The primary purpose of the federal government under the US Constitution is to protect the people of the United States from all threats both foreign and domestic. If it fails to do so then in Article IV the states have the right to defend themselves from invasion.

There is no doubt that these are invaders. In Europe they are 70% able bodied military aged men who have left their wives, children, parents etc behind. Not to find a better life than they knew but to impose their ideas on others.

Refugees are the ones that perpetrated the Boston Marathon bombing and also are the ones who attacked a military recruiting post in the United States. The ringleader of the Paris attacks was a refugee. As such these are not innocent men. They are seeking to kill and maim in the name of Islam. Little has been done by 'moderate' Islam to dissuade these 'extremists' from their viewpoints.

As a Christian you do have an individual duty to help the less fortunate, however that does not extend to our government. That's what's largely got us into trouble as a nation, we have sought to impose by force of law that which people should be doing individually in the misguided notion that we'll save everyone by doing so, but that which is not freely given will in no way save a soul.

Whatever ocm, your opinions carry no weight with me.. Never have, never will...

America doesn't only need to keep the refugees out, it needs a ethnic cleansing of mass proportion..
Screw being politically correct!!! That's whats wrong now everyone is scared they gonna step on someones toes or hurt their feelings..
I say get the "F" over it.....Grow a **** pair and stand up for your beliefs..

That is a terribly un-Christian thing to say.

I don't mean from the standpoint of a particular flavor of commercialized Christianity or the weirdo Paul, or the coward Peter, I mean from the standpoint of what one can read in a red-letter edition or Jefferson bible.

Divine or not, life after death or not, this is what the America First group said to the Jews in the 1930's and then the American government in the late 30's and early 40's.

Someone did not want the **** Irish. Someone did not want the **** Scots-Irish. Someone did not want the second wave of Germans who left after the failed 1848 revolution. Someone did not want the **** Portuguese or the Italians. Someone did not want the **** Lithuanians. Someone did not want the Vietnamese Boat People, or the **** Mexicans, or **** Hondurans, or **** Guatemalans. Some don't want the **** Hindu's, Bangladeshi, or the Pakistani.

What I want in an American is someone who pays his taxes, mows his yard, and is concerned for his and MY children's welfare.

Unlike many countries, to be an American is more than an accident of your birth place, it's a state of mind and a pledge of allegiance to an idea.

This **** storm was set into motion by the French and British at the end of WWI, but the United States doubled down on it when we supported Israel in 1948 and when the CIA toppled Mosedech in Iran - that was 1953. We have stirred the pot in that region for 70 years.

Those refugees are not bringing their problems here as much as our chickens are coming home to roost.
