No, this thread is about Paris and Muslims. I liked yesterdays DC personality better that today's. because I was arguing with Swish? I thought Swish was wrong yesterday.. today I think you are wrong. I don't really care what either of your political ideologies are.

ISIS says they will use the refugees to infiltrate Nations. ISIS says they will kill Americans. ISIS says they will hit an American city next.
I for one will take them at their word.

Oh, they will strike here, no doubt.
I saw today that ISIS (daesh) actually said "oh, we didn't mean to hit a russian plane, it was supposed to be a british plane."
Made me wonder why they would say that? Maybe cause Russia is feared by them?
They also executed a Chinese hostage. China is a little ticked off.
And on another tangent here, we're being told how it probably took months of intensive planning and training to coordinate the attacks in Paris.
yeah. 1 person blew themself up. Didn't hurt anyone. Watched a video of 2 guys shooting into a restaurant/cafe. They didn't even go inside, just peppered the building from the outside.
If it takes months of training and planning to do that, well.

Are people on here truly afraid to be a victim of Islamic violence? I'm not at all. Yet I do believe that you do not simply ignore using common sense in trying to avoid it. I'm not for putting boots on the ground in Syria, yet I'm also not willing to trust information from the Syrian government on the people some are willing to allow into our country. Trying to avoid obvious danger isn't the same as fearing something. Caution does not equate to fear.

International Groups estimate that there are between 250,000 and 340,000 people dead in Syria, and another 130,000 people missing.
How many Syrian lives does Jesus tell us an American life is worth?

Are people on here truly afraid to be a victim of Islamic violence? Me personally? No. the odds are extremely small. However I do not want to see my fellow Americans in any other city blown up either. I also don't want to see another successful terror attack as it will only embolden the government to infringe even further into my rights as an American.

Look, I have no problem with refugees coming here. My problem is with bad people coming here. They're not all women (who have been known, just recently, to strap suicide vests on) or kids. Lets help, but lets do it prudently.

Lets help, but lets do it prudently. That's not what Republican governors are saying. We're already taking in a ridiculously small number of refugees, compared to every European country. 10K this year? That's 30 people per day. Germany is taking in 5000/day. There are 4 million refugees. We're the freaking USA, we have the resources to process 30 people/day. Also, how "prudently"? That still requires you answer my question - how many Syrian lives is an American life worth?

As for refugees, I thought the u.s. took in a limit of 85,000 per year. (that's from my memory, and includes all refugees from everywhere). No, we can't process 30 a day. Not when I'm hearing it takes at least a year to vet each one. (to truly find out what they are, etc) Answer my question first: How many American lives are worth letting in 1 terrorist?

Republican Gov.'s are simply playing politics.
IF these refugees enter the U.S. there's nothing they can do to stop them from entering their states. That is simply political wrangling.
I oppose them entering our nation on what I believe to be common sense.
I don't believe with any degree of certainty that we can trust Syria to have the capability to have complete background information on their people that should instill confidence in using that information in any sort of vetting process.

I'm willing to put Americans at minuscule personal risk to save 100K people.
History always judges that to be the right choice.

You realize that congress sets a limit every year of how many refugees the US will take in and we are already at that limit for 2015 right? You also realize that we take in refugees from all over the place, far more than any other country in the world right? So we could load up on Syrian refugees next year, then the question will become, is a Syrian life more valuable than a Congo life?

Did we write this number into granite tablets? Are we not allowed to update it based on new information? Maybe we should direct our military to protect us against England, wouldn't want to update our strategy based on world events... You also realize that we take in refugees from all over the place, far more than any other country in the world right? That's not even remotely true... We're something like 62nd in refugees/citizen (just below the world average) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_countries_by_refugee_populationEven in total number we're 12th, despite being the 3rd biggest country.

I don't care if we let five, ten or 50 people in, there is NO reason why we shouldn't be doing a background check, research and validation on a group of individuals who have known western world hatred. You guys are taking that discussion too far IMO. ... Paris attacks ringleader Abdelhamid Abaaoud dead Bye bye... rot in HELL

OMG. Does this truly surprise you? This IS what we are dealing with, true or not. This is what Obama's failed foreign policy in Syria has created. There is no being nice, there is no diplomacy, there is no talking, there is no heart and, in their eyes, there is no peace until every infidel is dead. Sooner we realize this, the better. We can no longer lead from behind, turn a blind eye to this "JV " squad and treat them like people. They are animals who need put out of their misery.

I know isis is sick - they just kill people for whatever reason - but someone watch this and tell me it's fake.
No body even tries to run away.
Please, someone show me it's fake. I understand this might not be a recent video from what I've read. Maybe, from what I've read, it was Syrian soldiers and took place in 2014.
But it's fake, isn't it?

and i think if ISIS really dropped a video like this, this would've been non stop news 24/7, especially on Fox news and cnn.

But it's fake, isn't it? I don't know where this video is from, but... 4 million people don't flee their homes and country because somebody got beat up.... this is the type of thing the refugees are running away from. And this isn't really unprecedented: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rwandan_Genocidehttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Srebrenica_massacrehttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/My_Lai_MassacreThe only difference is that everybody has a camera now.
