Okay I've been trying not to get too political on here but this has to be said. Is this implying that we don't take in refugees or take in too little? The United States takes in a large number of refugees every year. We can only do our part, we cannot take in the entire world's refugee population. I forget the actual statistic but last time I heard we are near the top of the list for taking in the most refugees around the world. If this was just a joke that went over my head I apologize. It just feels like too many people think we don't do anything to help the refugee population and it annoys me. Alright back to fun posts.

There's also the (unfortunate) politicization of refugee status. If the United States were to openly welcome French refugees, for example, it would come across politically as the US saying that France is not capable of taking care of their own people. It can get dangerous to send that message if the two countries have economic ties or nuclear tensions.
FUCK CANADIA!
