How does Trump's ban on refugees from certain countries affect YOUR life negatively? (deport, military)

[xboxmas]

I see a bunch of people freaking out acting like this will have a negative impact on their lives. Unless you are a refugee who ONLY wants to go to the US, then why are you whining? Do you want more potential criminals pouring into the US? Syrian refugees have done more harm than good. What do you have to gain in life from letting in a bunch of undocumented foreigners?

If you want Muslim refugees so bad, then why don't you host them in your own home?

First they came for the Socialists, and I did not speak out—
Because I was not a Socialist.
Then they came for the Trade Unionists, and I did not speak out—
Because I was not a Trade Unionist.
Then they came for the Jews, and I did not speak out—
Because I was not a Jew.
Then they came for me—and there was no one left to speak for me.

How does it effect your life positively? Most Trump supporters live in areas of the country that have no Muslims or refugees; the only information they get comes straight from the fearmongoring right wing media.

It works great for ISIS recruiting, turning it into a very clear religious war instead of terrorists vs the US. As such, people I care about in the military are endangered.

Additionally it makes us less safe.

For starters, keeping those who come in from countries where its OK to beat and rape a woman from coming into our country.

Not everybody in the world cares only about their own well being. Every person who supports the refugee ban and calls themselves Christian is a fake Christian.

I often wonder that about the "pro-birth" people. How does what others do with their life have such an impact on their life, that they have to freak out.

And what makes that unborn fetus' life so important, but not a refugee's life?

It's bigger than me.

You realize that includes that raped and beaten woman from that country, right? You approve of deporting her back to be beaten and raped again, right?
