Why are you so afraid? Over the last 10 years, there have been roughly 150,000 people killed in the U.S. .... less than 30 of them came at the hands of Muslim terrorists.I agree that Trump did not say it well. He should have said: we need to put a stop to all immigration until we find a valid way to vet every person before they are allowed to enter this country. for the record, he did not say ban Syrian refugees, he said muslims.
As politically incorrect as his statement was, he was correct in principle. We should not open our borders to people that we have no way of vetting.
Do you fear having borders that are open to those without visas from the EU?
your question is moot. Terrorists can have EU visas. The Paris murderers were in France legally.
would you say that if you or member of your family was one of the victims?
personally I am not afraid, but neither were the San Bernardino or Ft Hood victims.
Would you say that if a member of your family or friend were killed in a normal gun killing?
If a member of my family was killed in a "normal" gun killing (whatever that is), I would make sure that the shooter never walked free or reproduced again. If the court system did not take care of it, I would do it personally.
as to being afraid. I am not afraid of muslim terrorists or "normal" gun crime. But I want both removed from this nation. I want the govt to do its primary job of keeping our citizens safe. If that means temporarily banning all muslim immigration, then so be it.
