Shunning refugees is no answer to terror
CNN ^ | November 16, 2015 | By Karen Jacobsen

It now seems possible that at least one of the terrorists in the Paris attack on Friday entered the European Union hidden among the wave of refugees arriving on European shores.

Even if this turns out not be so, the fear that terrorists are hiding amongst refugees will increase and will be used by anti-immigrant politicians.

That refugee or migrant movements might include terrorists has always been a threat and a worry to countries of immigration. It is part of the risk of welcoming strangers, just as we all take calculated risks when we allow people we don't know well into our homes.

Why is ‘welcomng strangers’ compulsory, with or without risk?

The only refugees there are the Christians and the left will stop at nothing to make sure they stay there and be exterminated.

Why take the risk? Makes no sense. There is plenty of space in continents congruent to Syria. The answer is to obliterate ISIS and then expand safe land available to these people. Not to move everyone out.

The Japanese live free of Islamic Terror. Their government isn’t actively trying to kill them like ours.

Send them to her house and she has no right to lock her front door and has no right to an alarm since she believes our country should have no doors and no locks.

Islamists don’t have ICBM’s. If you don’t allow them into your country, they can’t harm you. Just don’t let them in. It’s so damn simple that it will never happen.

Take in Christians and we’ll be fine. But Obama has specifically forbidden them because he has declared that Christians are not persecuted..

” just as we all take calculated risks when we allow people we don’t know well into our homes.”

No we don’t all do that Karen. Most of us never do that. That’s how you get raped and your throat slit.

I understand posting the piece, to get an idea of what the left is thinking (and I use that word in the merest sense).

But I for one am not listening to them anymore. I don’t care about the emoting, the sob stories, the guilt trips. Allowing Syrian refugees into this country is inviting...funding!...Islamic terror into our very midst. What happened in Paris could not be a starker warning. Send them home. Find an unoccupied island in some ocean and set up some shipping container housing. I don’t care. Don’t bring them here.

Agreed Karen Jacobson wants Syrian Refugees under her roof. Please seek her out when you need to redistribute a few.

There is no scalpel. A chainsaw is the only tool we have.

Let them in, increase the risk of mass murder.

Don’t let them in, decrease the risk of mass murder.

Easy choice.

No Karen, we are not going to commit suicide because of you ideological idiocy. Anyways, it's because of you MSM idiots not vetting the coward Obama that there is a refugee problem.
