SJ, Mateen's parents emigrated during either Carter or Reagan. My friend, we will probably always disagree on a lot of issues, but if we don't face facts squarely without the clutter of rumor, illogical innuendo and wishful thinking, how can we change anything. We have to work together, without a way-back machine, or the coulda, woulda, shoulda, using history as a tool, not a cudgel. Think we can do this..or is our division unrepairable?It would have stopped this attack if his parents had not been allowed to enter.SJ, simply pointing out that the hysteria to stop immigration certainly wasn't an answer for the massacre suffered in Orlando. And I believe I acknowledged that tight controlled vetting is necessary for immigrants from the so-called Muslim nations. SJ can we stop coming out of our corners fighting? Lets not make this either/or.So why bother to prevent any FUTURE attacks? Is that your argument?Umm,Paul? If immigration were immediately stopped from the countries you mention, would that have prevented this mass murder? Would it have stopped Virginia Tech? Sandy Hook? Tucson? Aurora? Columbine? Oklahoma? I agree that the utmost caution in vetting prospective immigrants is necessary for the time being, but hysterics is a danger too. This dirtbag was American born, a natural citizen. In our zeal, lets take care to avoid an 'Ox Bow Incident'.Donald Trump is currently being savaged by the Democrats and Communist/Progressive MSM, for suggesting halting all immigration from Muslim Nations. But what about halting immigration from some Muslim Nations?
Our Government is currently accepting thousands of Immigrants from known Terrorist-havens like Syria, Afghanistan, Saudi Arabia, and Iraq. How do you feel about it? Thanks.
