Mayor de Blasio says New York City will not turn away any refugees fleeing Syria.
De Blasio said Tuesday that New York "is a proud immigrant city" and would welcome refugees trying to escape the conflict in their homeland.
Many public officials and U.S. presidential candidates have expressed wariness at admitting refugees in the wake of the terror attacks in Paris last week.
De Blasio chided a pair of local Republicans running for president. He called New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie "an embarrassment to this country" and said that the city "will adhere to the words of our Founding Fathers, not Donald Trump."

Plenty of available cheap places to live in NYC-——its just that they must share them with the rats-— (the ones with tails, that is.)

Good, NY can take them all. Just make sure they all stay on the island.

He is arguably the single most repulsive human in America. Arguably worse than Obama. Just not as powerful.

De Blasio must eat a massive bowl of STUPID in order to welcome Islamic wolves into the NYC sheep. The results are predictable. I hope the wolves get him in their attacks.

This will make a great political ad for his opponent in the next election. What next election. These destroyers speak and act like they need no longer concern themselves with elections.

Of course de Blowhole would say this. Not ONE refugee would be placed in NYC because the only way they could AFFORD to live there is if the government footed the bill.

The founding fathers would have shot those jihadis in the face, Bill. And they would have hung your sorry butt.
