But it's ALL refugees from ALL countries. Are you saying that all refugees are bad people? America has always been known as a melting pot and a country willing to take in the world's rejects. It's amazing how we can rationalize exceptions to that... But even then, the actions of Brownback here apply to Christian refugees fleeing Africa as well.
The bans are probably unenforceable, as states have no power to make immigration law, and people with refugee status are legal U.S. residents, and so cannot be prohibited from moving from one state to another.

Sorry I'm on a phone and its hard to keep up...
You made my point earlier that if it just saves one life we shouldn't take them...and of course there are risks as there is to everything. It's a ridiculous statement I modified from Joe biden
Because they are scared for their lives and have nowhere else to go. It's the American thing to do. It shows we aren't going to fear the total because of the few. It shows we aren't scared of our own shadows.
So if there are risks to our nation,the government has a duty to perfect Americans first.
Plain and simple.
Brownback sounds like a douche though.
Plus we don't need PP in my opinion.
Hope this clears up things
