Oh boy.


You probably shouldn't talk about people who you don't know, or you could end up looking even more foolish.

How am I talking about you? I didn’t say “LSUconvert hates refugees and doesn’t want them”

I simply believe that you should practice what you preach. If you believe we should let refugees in, take them into your home.

If you have done this, then bravo sir. You’re one of the single digit percent that practices what they preach.

You need to work on your reasoning skills, this doesn't hold water. Not even a little bit.

Something wrong with taking refugees?

When you already have too many people that dont do shite but take from taxpayers and there's still homeless and veterans suffering, yes. We should take care of what's here first instead of inviting more problems in.

What is lost in this outrage toward “libruls” (sic) is that Republican governors will quietly continue accepting refugees for that sweet federal funding and to please their Chamber of Commerce overlords.

Therein should lie the anger. But keep voting Republican...
quote:

Similarly, Trump's executive order is putting Republican governors in an uncomfortable position. They’re caught between immigration hardliners who want to shut the door and some Christian evangelicals who believe helping refugees is a moral obligation. Others say refugees are vital to fill jobs and keep rural communities afloat.

A bipartisan group of more than 30 governors have agreed to accept refugees, but about a dozen Republican governors have stayed silent as they face a decision that must be made by Jan. 21 so resettlement agencies can secure federal funding in time to plan where to place refugees.

quote:

Republican governors in Nebraska, West Virginia, Tennessee, Ohio, Indiana, North Dakota, South Dakota, Utah, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, Arizona, Iowa and Oklahoma have consented to accepting refugees in 2020. Vermont’s Republican governor said he intends to accepts refugees. Others have not taken a public stance. They include the Republican governors of Georgia and Missouri, along with Gov. Greg Abbott, of Texas, the state that took in the largest number of refugees this year.

True, but you notice I have received multiple downvotes for pointing this out.

How dare I criticize the Republican Party. I must be a stinking prog, eh?
