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.

Why would we? Fix your own dam country we have our own problems and issues to deal with.
@8VLTQ8H4yrs4Y
I think that it should be held off because there are too many refugees right now and it should just wait.
@8VL4NPM4yrs4Y
It depends if they are criminals or terrorists if they are not terrorists or criminals then sure.
@8TV82QX4yrs4Y
Only if the contribute to society after background checks. Should be mandatory to speak English and come at their own expense. No free handouts
@8RGJCF54yrs4Y
Yes, but decrease the amount let in
@8QCGGMLConservative4yrs4Y
Yes but with significant background checks/vetting and continued monitoring. They should not be allowed to live generously off tax payer's money either. They need to contribute to society right away. And the amount of refugees yearly needs to be limited. We do not have the resources to support the whole world.
@8NYQPHWLibertarian4yrs4Y
Stop supporting the wars making the refugees
@8NWWM794yrs4Y
Yes, but only mothers and children, the rest should go fight for their country.
@8HQFZBLConservative4yrs4Y
yes but they shouldn't be funded by the government, they need normal Canadian living skills
