I've noticed that all the people who are still supporting the funding of refugee resettlement are the same ones who claim we can't afford to deport all the illegal aliens. Funny that.

If and when they get here, finding guns shouldn't be too much of a problem.

You think we can afford to deport 11 million illegal aliens? Really? Funny that.

Right. Let's say you split that up over four years. That's about 3 million per year. Divide that by 365, and you have roughly 8000 people to deport every single day. Think of the logistics of that - 56,000 people per week who have to be found, detained, processed, housed in detention, and transported to their home countries.
The idea is ridiculous.

You'd also have to deport US citizens who were born in the country because their parents are illegals. That means we'd be sending US citizens to the border and dropping them off with no legal status anywhere else.
But those are just little things like details.

there is no credible way to tell the difference between an Islamic State militant and an innocent civilian fleeing war
Have to agree with Dr. Carson on this issue. Only a moron would welcome a Trojan Horse into their country. . . .

I second that. Obama is still set on allowing the refugees in. What a jerk!
A double edged sword. This is why they should NOT be allowed to "get here."

I said this would prob hapen about a month ago. State Governors defiant in the face of the administration's refugee policy. Allowing for young, bearded, healthy, islamic men entering the US.

The Islamic State wants you to hate refugees

Carson, the Governors and their supporters are ISIS's version of useful idiots.
The reality is that most of these refugees are already receiving a pretty rough welcome in the West. Syrian refugees who arrive in the United States face remarkable scrutiny from multiple government agencies, including the FBI's Terrorist Screening Center, the State Department, the Department of Homeland Security, the National Counterterrorism Center and the Defense Department. The screening process can take years, leaving legitimate refugees in limbo. It's worth remembering that making that welcome worse may be exactly what the Islamic State wants.
"That's not American," he said. "That's not who we are. We do not have religious tests to our compassion." -Obama
Amen.
