I am definitely not one to defend Obama... but...
Just because we don't actively help them get here... doesn't mean they aren't granted asylum if they can make it here on their own.
From Syria... very little and quite honestly you can keep those. Because people from that conflict regardless of what side they are on, are equally disgusting and violent evil people. If given the opportunity and resources they would do the same thing to the people that have done it to them... and they do.
From Central America and South America quite a few refugees.
The US has taken in more refugees in it's history than any other nation by quite a margin. I feel no guilt for not taking in a pack of murderous rapist jihadists.
No difference in how the FBI investigates them, ie from what pool of information they draw from to when analyzing a threat.
Holy hell, are you guys being intentionally ignorant because of some sort of pro-Muslim anti-Republican allegiance or do you honestly not see the connection here?
BROKEN SYSTEM THAT IS FAILING TO DETECT AND ADDRESS RADICAL ISLAMIC CHARACTERISTICS
+
"REFUGEES" COMING FROM A REGION WHERE RADICAL ISLAM IS THE CRADLE-to-GRAVE STANDARD
=
PROBLEM!
MAGA
When all you do is WIN WIN WIN
You don't see any problem in labeling all people from one region as "disgusting and violent evil people"? Yeah, sure, they are, on average, more violent than Americans... On average. But, really, come on now, there are hundreds thousands Syrians you probably wouldn't mind having as your friends.
No because again... on both sides of the conflict Syrians are murderers.
I have seen pictures I can't post here, again from both sides, where they display headless toddlers as trophies. It makes me sick to my stomach. I don't want anything to do with any of them. That is an entirely different breed of evil.

Yep, we're sendin' 'em to poverty ridden towns in red states.
The women in Cologne hat to open more than their hearts for these "refugees".........
On MMO-C we learn that Anti-Fascism is locking arms with corporations, the State Department and agreeing with the CIA, But opposing the CIA and corporate America, and thinking Jews have a right to buy land and can expect tenants to pay rent THAT is ultra-Fash Nazism. Bellingcat is an MI6/CIA cut out. Clyburn Truther.
Rarely do I agree with Obama but he is right on this, even though he doesn't go far enough on opening up America's borders and most of his reasoning for letting in refugees is to pompously feed his image as a humanitarian.
I have yet to see a satisfactory answer as to why leftists can't recognize the negative effects of expanding the welfare state while letting in a large wave of immigrants and refugees. I would assume it's the usual trite of raising taxes to pay for it.
Open borders will only become reality when people realize that "races", "nations", "nationalities", "ethnicities", etc. are purely artificial and pointless constructs. And we are very-veeeeeeeeeery far away from that point... Centuries away, at least. As for welfare, it doesn't really matter, as long as the system is decent and not every random person gets rewarded for just showing up there.
I generally agree but race and ethnicity are not social constructs. Racial grouping is a social construct but something that is biologically recognizable is not a social construct. Race would still exist even if we pretend it didn't.
America at least has a completely unsustainable entitlement system that both major presidential candidates plan on keeping the same or expanding. You can raise taxes to compensate but that has negative economic repercussions. It is beneficial to society as a whole if a country lets in anyone who wants to be let in (with the obvious exception of terrorists and criminals).
I am against the welfare state because expanding it provides a nativistic rationale for preventing a non-coercive solution to poverty, which is open borders.
