Hating Refugees Is Pretty Much As American As Apple Pie

http://www.huffingtonpost.com/entry/hating-refugees-america_564c8fdbe4b06037734bc8a0

In the 1940s, U.S. officials worried that N**i agents would pose as refugees to infiltrate countries.

While America, home to the Statue of Liberty and Ellis Island, likes to think of itself as a safe haven for the world's tired, poor, huddled masses, it has also long harbored nasty anti-refugee sentiment driven by stereotypes and fears that people who look different or have unfamiliar traditions aren't quite capable of ever becoming truly American. German Jews, Catholics and Japanese-Americans have all faced this sort of skepticism over the years, as evinced by polling from the time, as well as old news clips and cartoons:

And what exactly do you know and understand about Islam. You do realize it is not only a religion but a political way of life as well as a military way of life controlling all facets of its followers throughout life. Woman have zero rights and are nothing more than property. Maybe you should read more about Islam before you jump on the bandwagon.

The REFUGEE theme is already getting old and lifeless.

You want these people.. volunteer to put them up in your home.....and be totally financially and LEGALLY responsible for them, too.

Take some pictures and document all you do with them show us how it is going. O.k.?

The same basically as any other religion. The crazy fundamentalists of all stripes change the teachings to promote their agenda. Whether Christian, Muslim, or Jew it is all fairy tales. If there is a god it is nothing that we can conceive with our limited knowledge.

The easiest way to end the refugee problem is don't create them. Unfortunately that is impossible during conflict. Everybody has to be some where.

This is not xenophobia or lack of compassion for refugees. There is an element here which you are completely ignoring, and that is the element of risk to our country. The fact is that well over half of these "refugees" are male and over half of them are of military age or younger. The government claims it has nearly foolproof vetting measures in place, but anyone with a brain knows that's bulls**t. There is no way to vet 10,000 people such that you know that none of them plans to commit a terrorist act. I think it's more than likely that at least one of them will, and one person is all it will take.

Well,,,, we Indians used to own a country,, before we allowed "unvetted imigration",,,,, guess there is a point there,,,, a very good one in fact

So true Tom. But is just is not up to us to solve that problem as far as bringing them here...(my opinion).
