If the number of people coming in increases, then the percentage of evil doers might not change. The total number of evil doers will, but the percentage need not. Therefore, the evil doers remain in the minority, no matter what the total number of migrants might be.
Do you follow that logic?
So, just because a greater number of humans are arriving, does not mean that a greater number, a majority, are going to be evil doers, but it does mean that there might be more evil people around.
However, given that western foreign policy over the last forty years or more is directly connected to how the terror wave which is breaking now, came to pass, I would say complaining about consequences is somewhat weak. We have sown, and so must we reap. To complain about our fear of the consequences of our nations actions on the intelligence front, is unseemly and in poor taste, given the pain those actions, that we paid our governments to be complicit in, have caused.
We need to put on our big boy pants, so to speak, and stop acting indignant about the danger we have put ourselves in by continuing to support agendas which necessitate the proxy war ethic. Perhaps when that has been behind us for a few decades, we might be able to be legitimately in possession of righteous indignation. Until then, keeping our chins on display might be wise.

You know you've lost an argument when you have to post John Oliver lol.
And as I mentioned in my previous posts and what it mentioned in the video in the OP, most of the refugees are fine. Others are not, what are we meant to do? Excuse a man for raping a child because of cultural difference? Please.
There's many political things that can be done, put out a statement, strengthen boarder control. As for homegrown terrorists I believe we have good enough police force to deal with it. Of course it doesn't mean we're 100% safe from attacks, but at least if the boarders were more securely checked there would be less of a chance of extremists sneaking in
Besides from that you're obviously unaware, that we have laws in place here in Europe to deal with criminal suspects of all kinds.
A German police officer told media that law enforcement cannot efficiently tackle crime among refugees without being accused of excessive violence or racism, while many dangerous incidents are played down or kept secret to maintain desirable statistics.

In South Africa before 1994, there were tens of millions of good and decent people, but then there was also the ANC. The ANC used terror and extortion to increase their numbers, killing both random and designated targets. Why would ISIS not use the same model to increase their numbers? They have people everywhere now. I expect we will see a coordinated effort by ISIS across a dozen or more countries at one time in the near future. It is unfortunate, but when it happens we will have to start exporting these alleged refugees back to their origins.

I guess all we can do right now is try and keep ourselves and loved ones safe, because I can only really see it getting worse from here out for people living in Europe.
I wouldn't support it no, read everything I've written and tell me what leads you to believe that I would support such an act
Just checking in to say, yes. Yes I would.
I undeestand that this is not a popular sentiment here, but I think its important for people that disagree to know that some do in fact hold this position.
I feel the same way about Muslims as I do about Christians. They believe in fairy tales and in most cases should not be taken seriously. The major difference being that Christians are benign--Muslims are not.
It seems to me that Muslims want to extend their version of law over people that have no interest in being subjected to it. It also seems that more and more of an admitidly small minority are willing to help that subjigatioan come to fruition through violence. It is in my humble opinion that this must be stopped at any cost.
If eliminating the problematic minority in turn radicalizes more to extremism, then I believe the only solution is total annihilation. What do you do when killing one wasp creates another nest behind you?
I'm just not convinced that a diplomatic or cultural solution can stand up to the religious, brainwashed masses--they are a formidable enemy.

The police looks like as a friend and helper. For help but lacks the time. In everyday life, the officials come now barely in evidence. Even worse: The staff shortage is so great that, especially on Sundays and public holidays or no more inserts could be overcome at the same night. According to the police union (GdP) is one of five positions vacant in all four inspections of the county.
