you said I have nothing to worry about. Thanks officer Jones
Based on what you said are your concerns, you don't.you said I have nothing to worry about. Thanks officer Jones
My name isn't Officer Jones and that isn't my picture. Why did you use those? You seem upset that someone knows more than you do about this. You could easily know as much as I do or anyone else does if you choose to, and no one would call you officer anything out of embarrassment.
True, but immigration is an Article I (congressional power). I guess you could argue this is an Article II, foreign policy/national security issue. At first blush, that seems a stretch to me.
thanks. You have taken a load off me officer Jones.

my point is that unless you have a high degree of certainty, you go ahead and use protection.
better safe than sorry!
My point is maybe you should post what you know about the US intake process for Syrian refugees as well. I think there is a lot of misinformation out there.
Take note, boutons... This is good satire.
AS YOUR GOVERNOR, I WILL PROTECT YOU FROM MASS SHOOTERS IF THEY ARE SYRIAN.
BY PETE REYNOLDS
When I took the oath of office, I swore to do everything I could to protect the citizens of this state from harm. There is nothing more important to me than ensuring that we are safe and can gather in our public places without fear of mass, indiscriminate violence. The nightmare scenario — the one that keeps me up at night — is the one where some individual could easily and legally obtain a firearm and use that firearm to kill innocent American citizens and also that the individual doing the killing is Syrian.
That’s why, as long as I’m your governor, I vow to do everything in my power to prevent Syrians from shooting you while you are at the mall. No Syrians will enter a movie theater and start shooting you. Syrians will not shoot you at church, or in a restaurant, as long as I am governor. College campuses also will not be places where it will be okay to be shot by Syrians. As your governor, I will ensure that no Syrians enter your child’s elementary school and start shooting your child.
Here are some other places where I will not tolerate American citizens getting shot by Syrians: community centers; school cafeterias; hair salons; nursing homes; office buildings; night clubs; temples; supermarkets; lecture halls; dorms; trains; house parties; playgrounds; post offices; front yards. If anyone at any of these locations were ever shot by Syrians, I would take swift and decisive action to protect our citizens from ever again being shot by Syrians.
This is how you know that I am concerned about your safety: no Syrians.
No Syrians will be able to just walk into a sporting goods store and purchase a deadly weapon on a whim or buy bulletproof body armor online. No Syrians will be allowed to attend gun shows and purchase whatever firearms they desire without restriction. And I refuse to support special interest groups whose sole mission is to profit from putting weapons into the hands of people, if those people are Syrians. Were there such an organization devoted to equipping Syrians with as many guns as they can afford, I would not bow to that organization’s every wish, because I am a public official, and I care very deeply about the safety of our citizens when it comes to whether they might be shot and killed by Syrians.
To that end, I promise to require full registration and tracking of all Syrians, and a “cooling off” period for anyone who wishes to become Syrian. Because this much is clear: the answer to the problems posed by Syrians is not more Syrians.
But it doesn’t matter, because there will be no Syrians.

I'm sure there is. Just as I'm sure that there are terrorists posing as refugees and making it over borders.
the US borders? This is what the thread is about.
probably less than a 50% chance. but greater than 0% chance.
Based on what?
The 50% is an assumption based on that I have some faith in the vetting process. I'd like to believe it's much lower. But it's not 0%.
What is your faith in the vetting processed based on?
that the people doing the vetting are trying to vet
So do you have any actual interest in this topic?
Yes.
Do you believe that the vetting system is 100% foolproof and there's no chance of any terrorists getting through?
Then why have you not done one thing to educate yourself about the vetting process?
No system is 100% foolproof.Do you believe that the vetting system is 100% foolproof and there's no chance of any terrorists getting through?
I've got at least 30 things to do before I have time to research the vetting process.
Like post in this thread for an hour?
saying refugee vetting to be 100% perfect as pretext to refusing responsibility for the misery Repugs caused is the same tactic as refusing to pass any immigration reform until the MX border perfectly, hermticall sealed.
"Something's not perfect, so we'll block EVERYTHING associated with it."
you rightwingnuts are transparently stupid, simplistic.
that. then figure out my lineup for DraftKings. check my fantasy football teams for this week. do some spreadsheet stuff for work. lunch. see if there are any cool podcasts to listen to for later.
lots of stuff...
would you have unprotected buttsex with someone who had a 1% chance of having HIV?
Is she going through an 18-24 month vetting process to determine if she has HIV or not?
Would you allow guns to be sold to a white man when if there is a chance he uses the gun to shoot up an elementary school?
