Close the border!

I hope it would take something more than two Syrian families trying to cross the border.

Why are you so scared of them?

Do you want to have an ideagasm?

And that's news to anyone, is it? The Mexican border is suddenly more scary because refugees from this particular place tried to cross it?

It seems that Switzerland is safer indeed, for its locals, and more welcoming for the refugees, even if some of the accomodation is not necessarily up to par.

Please everyone. Click on the link and look at the source. It's complete bullshit. It claims the the government is hushing up this event. Ron's sources lie. Quit dignifying this garbage.

Everywhere. If you got into a neighbouring country you can freely get into Switzerland. Unless you look particularly suspicious the only thing they'll check is that you've paid for your motorway sticker.

That wasn't the answer you were expecting, was it?

That's a lot more concerning. Five men traveling together like that are not refugees, or posing as refugees. Exactly who they are and what they were trying to do is something I'll be following.

I will throw a first hand story out. A fellow officer stopped a guy for speeding two days ago, and he requested we stop and back him up.

He was in Louisiana, driving a truck with a dealer tag from Texas and had a id card from North Carolina made by a private company called USAID SYSTEMS
http://www.usaidsystems.com/en/home.aspx
The ID stated his birth country was El Salvador.
This is not a drivers license
This is not an official government ID
He had no other forms of identification

They did not speak english at all. After setting there trying to piece it all together (registration, insurance, etc do not match right) another guy drives up that can speak english.

He did have an official ID(which was suspended) and stated those were his nephews and they are illegal....We were all perplexed that he just admitted to 4 officers that his nephews were not legal in this country.

They were just working class guys so(after calling someone who cares and I will leave it at that) all we did was write them a ticket for not having a drivers license, kept the guys license that was suspended and made them get someone who could legally drive come get the truck.

The point I am making is remarkably easy to get yourself inside the US, and it is at the point where the illegals are lax about it and know they are being protected by the federal government enough to straight up admit they are illegal and know unless they have committed a serious crime they are good to go. Which was EXACTLY what the person we called said for us to do.

You do realize that Daesh has a fairly large bankroll/budget, right?

They've been selling oil, taxing the residents of the areas they control, looting historical sites and selling artifacts (that's a big moneymaker).

Buying decent fake IDs (not the ones that were popping up as spam on here) and getting to Europe or North America on tourist visas would be a very easy process for them. Getting out of the Middle East through, say, Saudi Arabia would be the easiest, although there are other ways.

Unless of course we do close our borders. Completely. Not just to "brown people", because Daesh has more than a few European members.

Somehow I don't think that's going to work.

But go ahead, panic and run around like the proverbial "Chicken with your head cut off." Live in fear of "those people" coming to get you.

That is, of course, exactly what the terrorists want you to do.

The airport. You can crawl to be sneaky if you like. Of course they are taking in refugees too, so you might still have to live in fear.

I dont care if they let refugees in. Would I like a full background check yeah, but thats not possible as I understand it. I think most people would in that situation like them to be watched over.

The one guy that came to Baton Rouge reportedly split the next day. As shown below I also think with better information from the government about this it would squash alot of this mess.

Quote

One refugee from the war-torn nation settled in the Capital City within the last year, according to the U.S. State Department. That individual has reportedly since relocated to the Washington, DC area.

Speaking at an impromptu press conference Tuesday evening at Catholic Charities, Edmonson denied Vitter's claims that they do not know his whereabouts.

"I've personally received numerous phone calls from people that said, 'I'm worried there's a Syrian loose and you don't know where it is,'" said Edmonson. "That is a mischaracterization, that is just simply not true."

In order to relocated within the United States, Syrian refugees are supposed to file paper work, alerting various organizations and the State Department.

"Syrians that we have settled in Louisiana are not out wandering willy-nilly around the country with their location and whereabouts unknown to us," said David Aguillard, the executive director of Catholic Charities in Baton Rouge.

The process of getting to the United States in the first place is extensive for refugees. Individuals must undergo years of interviews in refugee camps that include assessments aimed at identifying health and security threats.

"This can take anywhere between two to 10 years before we actually see a refugee stateside," said Corina Salazar, director of refugee resettlement at Catholic Charities in Baton Rouge.

So far, they said there are no Syrian refugees in the pipeline for resettlement in the Baton Rouge Metro area through at least March 2016.

Still, Edmonson said the federal government could be more forthcoming with information about refugees.

"We simply found out the State Department was not sharing information about this program on the local level," Edmonson said. "That's unacceptable to us."

However, the fact that Syrian refugees could be coming to Louisiana is not new information. Two weeks ago, Catholic Charities said publicly it was expecting some refugees, but was not sure how many or when.

Regardless, Catholic Charities said their main goal - making those individuals feel at home - is key.

"We want to welcome them into our society, we want to integrate them so they are not disaffected," Salazar said.

Good piece on this from George Takei:

===============
Earlier today, the mayor of Roanoke, Virginia, Mr. David A. Bowers, in the attached letter, joined several state governors in ordering that Syrian refugees not receive any government assistance, or be relocated to their jurisdiction. Apart from the lack of legal authority to do so (under the Refugee Act of 1980, only the President has authority to accept or deny refugees), his resort to fear-based tactics, and his galling lack of compassion for people fleeing these same terrorists, Mayor Bowers made the following startling statement:

“I’m reminded that Franklin D. Roosevelt felt compelled to sequester Japanese foreign nationals after the bombing of Pearl Harbor, and it appears that the threat of harm to America from Isis now is just as real and serious as that from our enemies then.”

Mayor Bowers, there are a few key points of history you seem to have missed:

1) The internment (not a "sequester") was not of Japanese "foreign nationals," but of Japanese Americans, two-thirds of whom were U.S. citizens. I was one of them, and my family and I spent 4 years in prison camps because we happened to look like the people who bombed Pearl Harbor. It is my life’s mission to never let such a thing happen again in America.

2) There never was any proven incident of espionage or sabotage from the suspected “enemies” then, just as there has been no act of terrorism from any of the 1,854 Syrian refugees the U.S. already has accepted. We were judged based on who we looked like, and that is about as un-American as it gets.

3) If you are attempting to compare the actual threat of harm from the 120,000 of us who were interned then to the Syrian situation now, the simple answer is this: There was no threat. We loved America. We were decent, honest, hard-working folks. Tens of thousands of lives were ruined, over nothing.

Mayor Bowers, one of the reasons I am telling our story on Broadway eight times a week in Allegiance is because of people like you. You who hold a position of authority and power, but you demonstrably have failed to learn the most basic of American civics or history lessons. So Mayor Bowers, I am officially inviting you to come see our show, as my personal guest. Perhaps you, too, will come away with more compassion and understanding.

Not directed to any poster in particular.

It seems that a lot of people, including some politicians whom we might expect to be better informed, are unable to distinguish between illegal aliens and refugees. Refugee is an official (documented) status. It isn't just any Tom, Dick or Abdul turning up unannounced.

I suppose if they have brown skin it doesn't make much difference to the xenophobes.

The next thing that was told to us was.
