Serious question here. A lot of the people here are painting the refugees as all being terrorists, missing the point entirely. Refugees are people trying to escape the terrorists. They've SEEN this, and want nothing to do with it, and yet over and over....people here seem to want to blame them.

Why?

I don't know. BUT....I do think most of these able bodied men should be picking up rifles and taking their country back. Send your women and children away, fine. But FIGHT for your country.

A country has a responsibility to protect itself. Why should they let in a bunch of refugees knowing that a bunch of terrorist will come with them? It's not their responsibility to deal with other countries' issues.

It's a march for freebies in a safer environment.

Here is a picture of your refugee women and children fleeing war arriving at a town in Germany.



What could possibly go wrong?

Most Muslims aren't terrorists, but most terrorists are Muslims. Until there is a way to guarantee that we aren't letting in people who wish to do us harm, we should not be letting Muslim refugees into our country.

Plenty of Muslim countries they could go to but they are looking for freebies and that's only happening in the EU or other Western nations.

It's a valid question. If there was a plague over-running your country, wouldn't you flee? Why blame people who want to get as far away from these monsters as possible? They are victims of ISIS. We should be helping them, not demonizing them for being unfortunate enough to live in the part of the world where these monsters have sprung up.

Because it's likely that there are some violent extremist types among them, or people who will someday be violent extremists. It's just not worth it.
