The problem is not limited to refugees. The problem is massive immigration from third world countries, immigration that threatens our way of life. It is not just illegal immigration either. When you hear a candidate qualify that he is only against illegal immigration, you know he either is lying to you or doesn't understand the issue.
From Ann Coulter's column today:
.... ..
While liberals' idea of retaliation is to post the French flag on their Twitter profiles, Republicans think the way to get tough is to go to war in Syria.
Marco Rubio gives macho speeches about a military attack on ISIS -- "either they win or we win!" -- to distract from the fact that his immigration bill would have massively increased the number of needy immigrants pouring into our country -- including Muslim refugees.
So Rubio's plan for Middle East stability is to start more wars and then import all the displaced terrorists into the United States. Brilliant!
Not to be a stickler, but ISIS didn't slaughter 3,000 Americans on 9/11, blow up the Boston Marathon, murder thirteen Americans at Fort Hood, or open fire on a military recruiting center in Chattanooga, Tennessee.
ISIS didn't kill Kate Steinle, commit
mass murder on the Long Island Railroad, introduce
Palo Mayombeand
Santeriato our country, bring
slaves and concubines from Indiato San Francisco, or burn down hundreds of acres of national parks to evade border agents.
ISIS doesn't import 90 percent of the illegal drugs that kill thousands of Americans every year, steal billions of dollars from Social Security, Medicare and Medicaid, or
rape little girls, nuns and dogs in our country.
ISIS isn't responsible for Sweden suddenly becoming the
rape capital of the world, the Eritrean asylum seeker who
stabbed a mother and a son to deathat an Ikea store in Vasteras a few months ago, or the
Dutch filmmaker Theo van Goghbeing stabbed to death on a street in Amsterdam.
All that -- and more! -- is the result of Third World immigration to the First World.
The West's importation of Stone Age people is a completely self-inflicted wound. It's as if the civilized world decided to amputate a leg.
You know what? We're too healthy and pure. Peg legs are stylish!
The idea that the only way to stop Third World immigrants from murdering Westerners is for our military to remake foreign hellholes into "proud, functioning and viable member(s) of the community of nations" -- as Madeline Albright said when we sent troops to Somalia in 1993 -- goes back to the Left's "root causes" theory.
Instead of imprisoning criminals, liberal judges in the 1960s decided that we must tackle the "root causes" of crime by addressing PID: poverty, ignorance and disease. To fight crime, we'd deploy welfare, Head Start and school lunch programs!
For the next two decades our streets ran with blood. Americans finally rose up in a blind rage and demanded that criminals be separated from the law-abiding.
Similarly, we wish the best for all the barbaric, misogynistic, pedophilic, illiterate nations of the world. But the main thing we want is for our government to keep them away from us.
Isn't keeping murderers out of the country literally the least our government can do? America has been pretty generous to the rest of the world, taking in more than twice as many refugees as the rest of the world combined. As Donald Trump says, now we need a "pause."
Rubio's war in Syria to stop terrorism at home is the Republican version of Clinton's "midnight basketball" to stop street crime.
Pay no attention to all those murderous migrants -- we'll fix that by rebuilding their home nations!
True, a war against ISIS might "send a message." But we were hoping to send a different message: Stay home.
