Of course. And how many refugees have committed terror attacks in this country? Not immigrants, but refugees?Terrorists are willing to die as long as they take some of us with them, I highly doubt that they care if they're found out.You're awfully young to have such a hardened attitude. Refugees, carefully vetted, are not the problem. The terrorists may enter Europe in the chaotic waves of refugees, but that is not how it is done here. Why would a terrorist risk being found out during 18 months of scrutiny? They will enter with a Visa or come across the border illegally, and more likely than either of those, they will simply continue to spread their vile poison via Internet and adherents already in the country. The problem is already here. The refugees have had their homes blown up and are forced to move to a foreign country where they don't speak the language, know the food, share the culture--nothing. They just want a place to be safe and live their lives. When we refused to allow in the German Jews during WWII, look what happened. It was not one of our prouder moments, being part of a world that allowed so many Jews to be murdered by the Nazi's. We are all part of human kind, Pumpkin Row. Someday, I hope you understand that.Yes. The government's job is to protect American lives, not those of other countries. It's even worse if in the process of saving the citizens of another country, they end up allowing their own citizens to die.How many refugees die because we won't let them in? Is your 1 American life that much more valuable than theirs? Oh, wait--I know your answer.
This 'proud human kind' is separated into different governments, in different countries, on different continents. It's their government's job to protect their citizens from foreign and domestic threats. Their government failing to do its duty is not our problem, it's their problem, and because our government failing to protect us, due to trying to protect them means that our government isn't doing its duty. Our government's duty to American people comes first.
BTW, if everyone relied on their governments for the well being of the world, we would have become extinct long ago.
