We are so much better than the nonsense we are hearing from our reactionary far right.
As usual, the left's narrative is unrealistic. You ignore the fact that many refugees don't want to be relocated. You ignore the fact that most are not families, but young males. You ignore the fact that Christians are being denied refugee status. You ignore the fact that more people would be helped if we send aid there instead of relocating them. You ignore the problems in Germany, France and Great Britain because of some of the hostile refugees. You ignore the intolerance on part of many refugees, some who have started "sharia patrols" in parts of other countries and their mission is to harass those who are noncompliant with sharia, even if the offenders are not Muslim.
The most important part is the fact that we are letting the U.N. cherry pick those who will be helped and a tiny percent are Christians. So, there is bigotry at the very start of the process. And the way we are doing it means that so many won't be helped at all. How is ignoring a great many in need considered the American way?
Best way to point it out is to say there are 12 people drowning. The left's current plan means sending a nice one-man boat to spare one person while the rest drown. The right's plan is to send 12 life jackets. Not as fancy, but gets the job done.
Let's send life vests to their countries and save more people instead of bringing a select few here over the next few years while leaving the rest to perish.
And if they are in dire need right now, how it is possible for them to wait a few years? Seems the goal is to bring Muslims, not Christians, here and distribute them to all 50 states.
It's clear that actually helping refugees is not the goal. The goal is to help Muslims spread and multiply. As soon as the refugees, mostly males, arrive, it's been discovered that ISIS recruiters are in contact with them.
Helping those who would destroy us is not the American way. It's the Obama way.
