    Now wait a minute. Like you (I think) I've got some experience with the whole "pencil sharpening" thing (as does my son). We don't call it mutilating, but still ...

    Fuck their countrymen, then. But not the ones in the countries with Trump properties. Those are the good ones.

    Well, then shouldn't you be happy those terrorists can still get here?

    I don't think there is any uncertainty regarding the immigration laws. Clearly there is a reluctance by the GOP to follow them. A scared base is a more cohesive base.

    Experts say another reason for the lack of Christians in the make-up of the refugees is the make-up of the camps. Christians in the main United Nations refugee camp in Jordan are subject to persecution, they say, and so flee the camps, meaning they are not included in the refugees referred to the U.S. by the U.N.

    “The Christians don’t reside in those camps because it is too dangerous,” Shea said. “They are preyed upon by other residents from the Sunni community and there is infiltration by ISIS and criminal gangs.”

    “They are raped, abducted into slavery and they are abducted for ransom. It is extremely dangerous, there is not a single Christian in the Jordanian camps for Syrian refugees,” Shea said.

    Fair point. It does matter where you draw the line when you define mutilation.

    Come on, now. You really want to open up a can of "Yeah what about them!"?

    I don't think it was a hop, skip and jump for those relatively few Syrians we were formerly willing to take to get here.
