We can take in refugees and fight to give those people a better life at the same time.

Acting like these things are mutually exclusive is ridiculous

exactly...you are blaming the refugees meanwhile the rich get richer.  

banning refugees isn't going to help the poor. if the elite and rich wanted to help the poor they would.

It does not

 

[guccjermaine2]

Valid point. However, the current issue is specifically banning Muslim majority countries.

You have to start somewhere. Muslims enslaved blacks so I have very little sympathy for their problems.

[whywesteppin]

the total number of refugees per year (85k, which includes the extra 10k Syrians that Obama added) comes out to 0.025% of the US population.

And here comes the buffoonery

 

[Mr.Guy]

You just said dude has a good point. His argument is giving Trump a chance and banning people

I agree with his point that we should worry about our marginal populations first before we try to help others. Not his other nonsense.

If you want to call/write to your senator/governor, here is a list of names, numbers, social media contacts, and a template about the immigration ban (that you can alter if you want to write about something else).

Many muslims are just as racist as White supremacists. I know many arabs who clown Black muslims and say they're fake muslims. Not saying I support the ban though.

You're dipping your toes into the bigotry pool famb

The water is too cold, don't dive in with dude.

We have lifelong American citizens who are living like refugees in their homeland.

And children in africa are starving etc. etc.

Bringing up other "worse" situations to belittle the impact of something currently being discussed is blatantly intellectually dishonest.

Whataboutism proves and solves nothing. When someone dies you don't comfort their loved ones by going "I know someone whose whole family died."

Here's the thing though. YOU CAN DO BOTH. AT THE SAME TIME. ONE DOES NOT HAVE TO OCCUR BEFORE THE OTHER. He doesn't have a point. He has nothing.

Lil Mohammed who was just visiting his grandparents and now cant return home to feed his fish shouldve thought about my great great great great great great great great great grandparents before he boarded that plane out of the US.

Regardless of how you feel about Muslims you can't set precedents like this.

I'm not just have a lot of Muslim friends who tell me how racist their parents are.

Exactly, so why would I give a damb about them being banned. Blacks are the real refugees in this country and we've been here the longest. Banning them moves black people up the totem pole.

Ah more ignorance

If they can cut down their civil rights, it just empowers the white supremacists to cut down other minority rights.
Everything has a chain reaction.

Has Muslim friends but shows no sympathy... hmmm sounds awfully similar to the white guy with "Black friends"

You mean move blacks up in front of the bullseye.

Translation: Minorities should fight for the crumbs between themselves, not unify to ask for a bigger slice of the pie.

Because if white supremacist go their way with Muslims, they will focus their attention on improving the lives of black people.

We aren't even talking about turning a blind eye, you're giving white supremacy a hard cosign because you think it will benefit black people in a rounf about way

Dude you argument is plain and simple bull ****, and covered in bigotry.
