President Obama recently declared that the U.S. will accept 10,000 refugees from Syria. The U.S. has been under pressure from its Syrian allies to help out with the crisis in which 3 Million refugees have fled Syria in the past year. Those in favor of accepting refugees believe that the U.S. has a duty to join its allies in Europe and accept at least 10,000 refugees. Opponents argue that the U.S. should stay out of this crisis and accepting refugees from the Middle East leads to a risk of letting terrorists into our borders.

I think that refugees should be accepted, but when they come to Canada they should have to go to a province/city that isn't overpopulated already. People shouldn't be moving places where homes aren't available for those currently live there.

yes but there should be a limit and a test
@8PZ977T4yrs4Y
I think we should accept as many people as we can actually help instead of bringing in a bunch of people to help when the people currently residing in the country are drowning and asking for a life line
@8PHFBM64yrs4Y
