The real cowards are the men of fighting age who are fleeing and letting women take up the fight, when they should be staying and making their country a place children don't have to flee, and where women don't have to fight.
Main point is those men of fighting age may be peaceful and not want to fight and are someone's son, brother, father. Who's going to give them weapons to fight? I also don't know what you're talking about leaving women to fight? Everyone is fleeing
To Chakun. I'm sure many of the men would be willing to fight, its just that the rebels in Syria are very disorganized and extremist. Now i know some of you will say "Dumb guest those rebels are good and are fighting a dictatorship and ISIS". Unfortunately that is not the case. There are a lot of extremist jihadi people sprinkled in to the rebel forces. Also the rebels are poorly armed and are being attacked by Iran, Russia and Assad. To the extremist thing, number one, a lot of extremists joined the fight and Assad even released extreme jihadi from prisons so he could "taint" the rebel fighters and cause confusion. This way, its difficult for the US and other countries to find "good" rebels to support. Vox has an awesome video on it

I cant put links there so theres a space between the h and t
The US is $17 trillion in debt, inflation is killing the dollar, middle class is getting beat down, college tuition is skyrocketing, manufacturing and jobs are getting outsourced, etc
We need to take care of our own country first before we take in people that will live off of the government and taxpayer dollars.

Our own people are also living off the taxpayers dollars too you know...
How? we can barley take care of ourselves. look at the prices and number of homeless people. granted, refugees would be safe, but we just dont have the money and space for them
At the same time, are these people going to integrate into our culture? Granted, yogurt has more culture than America, but what if they just decide to cloister around each other, and reject our way of life for their old way, why are they coming here?
That's exactly what many immigrants have been doing since the bleeding hearts have softened the requirements. They do not assimilate and still hate us.
The culture of the US can't be defined because it's so diverse and that's what makes the US, the US. Forget just immigrants, there are much older immigrants (as we are all immigrants) who hate the US, and their families have been living here for centuries. You can not assimilate completely and still love another country that's not yours.

You see my only issue is that ISIS does use the refugees as a cover. They hide among them. Was watching the news a couple days before paris attacks and they said about 1000 ISIS members were hiding among the refugeez entering europe. It's sad and fucking cowatdly. But if you can't understand the US's concern then they're not the only ones who are ignorant in this sitch. You see it goes like this, ISIS isn't going to ask tommy who goes to church on sunday's to join them , they're going to ask little ahmed who is a devout muslim and proud of it. It's just a fact that ISIS is targeting young people snd there are a LOT of young men who are fkeeing and that is a concern.
The problem is that america needs to take care of its fucking self before we go out of our way to help countries that harbor evil. We can barley support ourselves, let alone take in refugees that could possibly be suicide bombers. "Dont try to help someone up before you get your feet back under you" -Me
I would also like to say, and I know I'm going to get downvoted all to hell for this, but does anyone remeber American Sniper, Chris Kyle? Remeber his first kill? The little boy? And then his second kill? The little boy's mother? The movie was "based" on true events, but guess what? That was one of the true events. I'm just throwing that out there.
Yep. When women and children are used by the cowards on the other side, they must be taken out. It sucks but why would you allow someone to kill you just because they happen to look innocent? Those deaths are on the enemy, not Kyle.
I want to help but the US already has over 70,000 homeless people. starving children and men and women desperate for jobs. we need to help ourselves before we help anyone else. and it sounds bad but...it's not our war so they're not our responsibility. but 50,000 homeless American veterans? 17 trillion dollars debt? THAT'S our responsibility
And if you're so stupid you don't realize that these people you want to invite in are dedicated to your death and the death of other Americans then you are a half wit who needs to shut up and let the adults handle the situation.
Hi Joe Bob,
I'm sorry you suffer from ignorance and self-righteousness. That's a nasty combination. While there is not cure, try this. Their is a man who is 26. He was trying to finish up his degree so he and his wife and 6 month old daughter could have a better life. Then someone blew up his home and his wife and now he is trying to bring is tiny daughter to the West so she doesn't die like her mother. Now, picture looking this man in the eye and telling him he's a terrorist.
Sure he said it in a rude way, but hes right. we dont know whos who. a suicide bomber could make up the same sob story just to get in here. ISIS isnt gonna wear special shirts with their logo on it. we have no idea who we're letting in. America is gonna get blown to shreds if we let every outsider in.
And it isn't already from insiders? We don't already have mass shootings and deaths so frequently that most of us don't even bat an eye when we hear another happening? Have we become so dehumanized by human suffering that we aren't willing to open our gates to let people who, living in the 21ST CENTURY, have gone through shit that we should've been past centuries ago? You don't think that the terrorists will find another way in if we don't allow them in as refugees? Tourist visas are much easier to obtain. Read this:
