Doc where did you get your PHD in autism? Muslim immigrants, the same as refugees. Once again can't hide from facts. These were immigrants who came here and planned attacks...You think these guys would leave in a year or two to return to their mud huts turned crater? No, nevermind, I'm sure that's exactly what you believe. Carry on...You can repeat as many rightwing internet memes as you like, they're all faulty analogies, because they all require you to know for a fact that there's "one poisoned m&m", when in reality that information doesn't exist.
Seriously? Given that I already explained the scenario, and that you've already been apprised of the risk, you now know there is one in a hundred M&M's that could be poisonous. But you're going to sit there and tell me you'd rather take the risk? How foolish.
And "rightwing memes?" Is that it? Is that all you're going to say to dismiss my argument?
I think you might want to re-read what I posted, because you seem to be responding to something else entirely.
And yeah - it's a right wing internet meme.
A better analogy would be something along the lines of "A guy on the radio told me that one package of ground beef somewhere in the country is poisoned, so therefore we should make a law forcing everyone to be a vegetarian, just in case it's true"
You're being asinine. Like I said, in these analogies, all it takes is one package of beef or one piece of candy to kill someone. That's all it takes.
These are people, Doc, who posses varying ideologies and opinions of the US, some of them negative. You can't sit there and say for certain all of them have a positive view of the US. They aren't M&M's, nor packages of beef. And it can be reasonable to assume there are some among them that have an ulterior motive, and a desire to go out and kill Americans. As we can see with ISIS, they can even use women and children as weapons.
You can't assure me that there aren't terrorists hiding in their midst. You won't even admit to the distinct possibility of such a thing being true.
You have no way of knowing that you are or aren't the unlucky guy who bought a poisonous package of beef at the deli. But when presented with the risk, and the ability to choose which circumstance you'll follow, you can take precaution instead of taking the risk.
As I've already gone over repeatedly, this argument is asinine. Everything has risks, and sometimes risks are worth the rewards.
Stepping out your front door is a risk - you could get shot by a drug dealer, hit by a car, struck by lightening, or even fed a poisoned M&M. Would you choose to take the "precaution" of never leaving your house and becoming a shut-in?
26 terror plots in US tied to immigrants, Sen. Jeff Sessions says: 'Screening is very poor'
Here are 26 reasons they should go somewhere else. It's not a question of if the m&m's are poisoned, it's how many!

More than half of those people on your list were American citizens. None of them were refugees.
