I guess I'm just not that fearful.

Have you heard that Syria has been destroyed by civil war and people are running for there lives? They're called refugees. Do you think if they had terroristic intent they'd (a) bring their kids and (b) start by turning themselves in to American authorities?

You could be less afraid-- feel less like a sitting duck-- if you used logic.

It's not the refugees that you should worry about. It's their young and unborn children. The first generation will be decent residents and citizens, but many of their kids will become gang bangers, criminals and possibly jihadi freaks, just as they have in Europe. Blame it on poverty, bigotry, or whatever you want but that is the reality and is why you don't let them in.

OTMs have been a problem for years and didn't raise concern. OTM=other than Mexicans.

ISIS is unique, responsive to change, why would they not use the porous southern border to get in ??? Of course Obama claims the southern border is secure, he also said you can keep your doctor if you like your doctor.

Like the ones in Cleveland?
"In Cleveland, for example, local refugee services agencies spent about $4.8 million in 2012 as they helped refugees get established in the area, according to a study conducted by Chmura Economics & Analytics. But the economic impact those refugees had on the community weighed in at about $48 million, roughly 10 times the initial resettlement costs."

What a ridiculous comparison: the initial resettlement costs with the downstream spending (probaby of tax payer money). The crazy bleeding hearts are grasping at nonsense to support their foolishness. The point I make is that some of their children will end up as criminals and even mass murderers. There is no monetary benefit that is worth that. We don't need the risk (Europe does as they need workers. We have latino immigration for that and they are culturally much more favorable). We should not take the risk.

Maybe instead of running their young, able men should stay home and FIGHT for their homes. They should be sent back.

ISIS could not survive if the People did not either run like cowards or submit. If every man, womasn and child attacked ISIS would run out of bullets and the population could bludgeon them to death with their own guns with ten on one force.

Would a lot die? Yes. That is war. Fight or die. Cowards run.

They didn't try to sneak in

"he Department of Homeland Security released a statement to NBC confirming two Syrian families were taken into custody Tuesday, but clarified that they families weren't trying to "sneak in."
DHS confirms that on Tuesday, members of two Syrian families, two men, two women and four children, presented themselves at a port of entry in Laredo. They were taken into custody by CBP and turned over to ICE for further processing. The two adult women and four children were transferred to the South Texas Family Residential Center in Dilley, Texas. The two men from these families are being held at the South Texas Detention Center in Pearsall Texas. Due to privacy issues, no additional information will be provided at this time..

Yep. And cowards also maim and kill innocent people generally in places where they're vulnerable, and can't protect themselves. But hey, let's risk importing more of this into our country, just to show how "tolerant" that we are!
