Since we're only bringing over 180,000 send them all to NY who is ready to welcome them with open arms.

If Germany can accept 1.5 M refugees we can accept 185,000

Maybe you can tell me that we should give up our freedoms in the name of safety too. I love hearing right wingers talk about giving away freedom.

Nobody, including conservatives, believes that all muslims are terrorists. Your statement is nonsense.

The reality is that while it only takes a few radicals that is enough to cause enormous damage. On 9/11 19 guys murdered almost 3,000 people.

This has nothing to do with "fear" in the sense you mean it. It has everything to do with a legit concern for public safety and national security. If you can't see that then we can only be thankful that you aren't in charge of national security.

I didn't say not to accept them. But there's plenty of cities and states that have already said "Send them to us". So do it.

We CAN, but why should we? How many innocent American lives are you willing to risk?

Let them come. NY said they would take 1 million. Since only 185,000 are coming just send them all to NY.

NY can be our "Germany".

Even France has shut down their border along with how many European countries ?
Even Sweden is having second thoughts.

Facts are that most of the refugees I saw were young men.. where were the elderly , the women , the children? very few...

It is the Trojan horse of today.. Isis will full well take advantage of this situation to get into Europe and around the world.. they would be dumb not to use the stupidity of the leaders who welcome them in... how stupid the left are.. I just can't believe what is happening to the minds of our leaders.. political correctness has taken away all common sense .. they think they are doing a humane thing and it will kill many innocent people. It is mind boggling how anyone can be this dumb..

Would you invite a child molester into your home as a full time baby sitter when you have children because he needs a job? It would be crazy !!
