So should we ask again later when you have more resources? Or should we just put you down for two right now since you are all gung-ho about it.

This is a terrible point that y'all seem to be determined to ride straight into the ground.

How is it a terrible point? Liberals love ideas

Executing those ideas. Not so much

Liberals have always been NIMBYs.

They don't need to let someone live with them to say they should be allowed in our country.

I ask this question of pro-refugee posters all the time.

I've yet to receive a response.

It's pretty much the same stance they take with government. They take the incredibly emotional stance of increasing government to "help" people, yet want to do it using other people's money.

Same with refugees. They want to "help" them, but want other people to do it and not them.

It's a valid argument when they are arguing using the "what about the women and the children?!?" talking point.

See my previous post. They want to "help", but not so much that they will actually do anything about it. They want other people to do it for them, but also want people to think they are great because they "care".

Under the right circumstances I'd allow one to live in my home.


I think this is a lame "gotcha" question anyway. Nobody is asking them live in anyone's home.

One woman replied that she would but that her man was a Trump supporter so she couldn't

So it boils down to: Do what we want and someone else pay for it.

I'd be curious to hear how many pro-lifers on here would agree to raise a random person's baby if they couldn't abort it

But they are asking for others to pay for public assistance, which means taking someone else's money and sheltering them in someone else's dwelling.

I'm not really pro-refugee, but I would consider hosting them if there was some kind of financial incentive.

Women, children, and elderly only.
