[Proud Tiger 4,261]

What do you think? Will we become a nation of hodge podge immigrants?

I agree.

WTF is a hodge podge immigrant?

[Proud Tiger 4,261]

I agree.

WTF is a hodge podge immigrant?

How do you agree if you don't know? Are you willing to take some refugees into your home?

You asked two freaking questions. I agreed on the first and asked a clarifying question on the other. Good grief.

[Proud Tiger 4,261]

A hodge podge is a term meaning a mixture of a lot but a majority of none. Now answer my last question. And calm down......good grief and WTF are not necessary in a civil discussion.

Glad you see the light. Try it sometime, you might like it.

You must be the biggest hypocrite on this forum. And that's saying a lot.

Give him a little credit. He appears to be making an effort.

Being 'hodge podge' is what you're concerned about?

[Mikey 16,584]

Obama's goal is not a nation of hodge-podge immigrants. Obama's goal is a nation that has enough immigrants to, hopefully, guarantee that Democrats will be the perennial favorites in national elections.

Thank you. Slap me if I deserve it.

Apparently not. The term seems to mean something different to me.

No, I'm aware of what it means to you. You clearly stated it:

A hodge podge is a term meaning a mixture of a lot but a majority of none.

So I'm asking - is this really what you're concerned about?

[Proud Tiger 4,261]

Yes for one thing but more so the overall impact of it. Will it allow ISIS , et.al., to sneak in people? Won't it just run the welfare costs further out of sight?

But in my OP I asked what others think? So....what do you think?

[TitanTiger 20,479]

Yes for one thing

But why?

but more so the overall impact of it. Will it allow ISIS , et.al., to sneak in people? Won't it just run the welfare costs further out of sight?

Well now, that's a different argument altogether. It's not an invalid concern. But it sort of goes against the whole premise of ISIS. Their entire mission is about setting up a physical caliphate in that territory of the Middle East. They want people, true believers, coming TO them. They don't have nearly the army of folks that they can be embedding a bunch of terrorists into refugee groups without putting their occupation of territory at grave risk. And they are trying to prevent these people from leaving.

But in my OP I asked what others think? So....what do you think?

I think we have a moral obligation to help these people just from the perspective of it being the Christian thing to do. But we also have an obligation because much of what is happening over there with ISIS is because of actions we took in destabilizing the region with our ill advised invasions and poorly thought out after-war plans.

[AUDub 11,147]

Do whatever we can.

Here's a picture of two of these refugees:

That boy on the left was named Aylan. He was found on the shores of Turkey facedown, having drowned. I would not recommend googling his name. His brother on the right drowned as well.

Now fill every square inch of whatever room you're in with baby pictures just like this one and you won’t have even begun to see the breadth of this disaster. These are just two of thousands.

I pretty much agree except I think ISIS would like to have more in the U.S. for recruiting purposes and even small acts of terrorism just to make the point they can do it.

You can volunteer. Seriously I admire you for at least being willing to practice what you preach? But there has to be a limit sometime. Where that is is the question.

So you think homer's post that I responded to is civil? Should I have just said "thank you homer, I agree"?
