No to Muslim refugees coming to the US. If they want to come here, then they should do it the way everyone else does it: illegally along the southern US border.

All muslims are okay with some type of Islamic state. The fighting and question is over what kind of Islamic state. Who needs muslims in America fighting over what kind of Islamic state America should become.

No.
It doesn't have to be because we think they are all terrorists either, it's just that we'd have to do a level of background checks and other precautions that we just wouldn't have to do with people from elsewhere.
It's a case where we should tell them : "Sorry! Nothing against you personally but your fellow muslims who are radicals ruined it for the rest of you. We don't have the time, manpower or inclination to vet you all so we have to say no."

I don't see what positives it gives us. We'd have to carefully vet them and we'd be stymied by bleeding heart liberals who'd be against that. That process would take, time, money, resources and manpower.
Since they are refugees, they likely would be on welfare and contribute little.
It certainly won't win up any points with the radicals who want to kill us.. they will continue to want to kill us. The way I see it is, we get lots of

We could do it for humanitarian reasons but how many of the world's poor and disaffected can we keep taking in before we become a third world country ourselves?

Let's say the US says "Ok, we'll take 10,000 Sryian refugees"

Do you not believe some of them are already radicalized and will be in here waiting to strike? Even if it's 1/10 of 1%, that's still 10 radical muslims willing to kill innocent Americans and die in the name of islam.

Like I said before, we're sorry that your country is a hell hole, we really are, but that's your problem. Want support rebuilding, want food, water, etc, fine, we'll help. But sorry, you're not coming to the United States.

Women and children maybe. Military age men, not a single one.
