Your frivolous use of libtard labels, like 21 Steelers, really undermines your credibility and renders the labels worthless.
Maybe, maybe not. I think the hysteria over these particular refugees is misguided. I'd argue the wide majority of them are fleeing the same terrorists everyone is fearful of letting in. It's akin to Trump wanting to build the giant wall to keep out illegals all the while the majority of them don't even cross over on foot. There are so many potential terrorists already in the country, and entering via airports every day, it's a false pretense to think we're keeping ourselves safe by focusing on refugees fleeing a war-torn country. I do agree the Syrian refugees - all refugees - need to be vetted. I don't support simply letting everyone through. But America and the West has always been a haven for war refugees, and changing that changes the fabric of the country altogether. It's also a cheap and easy form of fear mongering.
Are all right-wingers genetically predisposed to make personal attacks against those with a different viewpoint? Or is it PMS?
Correct. They should be vetted. There should be background checks, they should not be let in en masse. I agree with all of that. But I also disagree with the notion of categorically rejecting all refugees en masse because of some perceived threat. Heck, if you want to go down that road all travel to the U.S. should be halted immediately. Think of all the "vetted" visitors that come through our airports every day, from Saudi Arabia or the EU, or any other country. All of the terrorists that carried out the Paris attacks were free to come to the US with their French and Belgium passports. Basically anyone can have a potential ISIS connection, again, including American and Canadien citizens. Think of the 911 sleeper cells et al, none of those ******* were so called "refugees" they waltzed right in. So my point is the bluster over the Syrian refugees is disingenuous and misleading.
You are one sad ************ Indy. I feel really bad for your friends and family (if you have any). As I've said many times before, there must be some sort of medication that can help you get off the ledge. Look into it, before it's too late.
Good point. I believe they also became radicalized once they were living here, on US soil. That's what frightens me more than anything, the ******* that turn into terrorists while enjoying all the comforts and advantages of living in the West. Just doesn't make sense. So yes, there is always the threat of an ISIS or other terrorist infiltrating refugee groups and coming in that way. But as I've been arguing, there's probably a 10,000 X larger danger of ISIS symphatizers already here or carrying western passports. I just don't agree the terrorist-playing-refugee angle is the bigger problem of the two. Ask yourself, why would they even go to the trouble? It sucks being a refugee, all camped out and huddling with families and kids, waiting for weeks and months. Why do that when you can get a passport of choice and fly right in on business class?
I agree oneforthebus. But I think more than anything, the biggest threat currently is from ISIS symphatizers/agents that are already here and have been living in the country for years. Much like the Paris attacks, where the terrorists had been living in France and Belgium for decades. The common denominator? Travel to and from Syria/Iraq since ISIS came to power. Those are the people I'd be focusing on, people that have left Western countries to travel there, to then return, not neccesarily the refugees that are fleeing...
The refugees aren't just fleeing ISIS, they're fleeing the Assad regime.
