Quick question. Would you rather:
- save 500,000 refugees from death in the middle east at the expense of 80 of your women being raped
Or
- send 500,000 refugees to be enslaved or decapitated by extremists in the middle east
Are you asking me if I would put my mother, my sister and my girlfriend at risk of rape to 'rescue' a bunch of strangers from a war I didn't vote for? It's sad that we've even come to the conclusion that it's one or the other.
If we had the infrastructure we should build "gated communities" or camps for them to work in. A halfway point between the middle east (which they can return to at anytime) and compromising national security. Let the experts evaluate them and allow them to seek new beginnings in America when they are convinced that they can successfully adapt to western life. I'd help you build the damn camp. But no, it's reckless and stupid to allow people from a bunch of stuffty failed states into your country without proper screening and cultural readjustment. You take care of the needs of your own before you take care of the needs of others.
yes you're right. What the united states has to do is occupy their land for over 30 years. The US has to kill innocent civilians with drone strikes. The US has to install puppet governments in their cities and take all their oil. The US definitely has to separate families and make people more vulnerable to recruitment by terrorist organizations like CIA and al qaeda
But, the united states doesn't have to help those people. Its the refugees problem, after all.
Do you really want people who hate America, for the exact reasons you just mentioned, to have free access to America? How does that benefit your fellow Americans? The 'right' thing isn't always the smart thing.
