What makes absolutely no sense to me is to do this while at the same time breaking families who have been peacefully among us for years, especially when deporting the parents of American children.

President Obama has been a huge disappointment to many of us, and his anti-Latino policies will be remembered

This! Obama is a joke and we're tired of his snake oil. He wants to promise everything to everybody and hope we're all stupid enough to believe him. You have hardworking Latino families here, poor African Americans here, homeless veterans here. Let's take care of them before we entertain Obama's impossible, and, quite frankly, cruel, promises. Shame on him.

Dude, simmer the fuck down. We've only brought a handful of Syrians into the country in the last 3 years. Not even 200. It's not as though program funding for everything else is running dry as a result.

Wrong again. According to NYT it is 1800 - not to mention the thousands of refugees not from Syria that the administration has brought in.

Thank you for providing the true numbers. Someone else is a liar.

According to the official STATE DEPARTMENT data, it was only around 200 since 2012.

Incorrect accordingly to the Department of Health and Human Services website. We took in 60,000 refugees in 2013 alone - with 19,000 being from Iraq.

Thank you for this data. What exactly happens to these people? Who determines where they go?

The PP you seem hell bent on correcting (incorrectly) claimed that only about 200 SYRIAN refugees had been admitted since 2012 (not refugees total). In '2013 alone' we admitted 36 Syrian refugees.

Because their facts are completely incorrect. The US has admitted 1800 Syrian refugees since 2012.

I was responding to the person who cited the 60k refugees. Sorry. The NY times is also wrong. We have admitted 2,527 Syrian refugees since 2012 (if you include 2012)

Whether it's 2,000 or 200, that's a tiny number of people over the span of many years.

Why do I care?

I would rather the money go to native born Americans. We have so many homeless people here and many are AA. The US will help anyone but AA folks it seems.

In what areas would you help them? Does each state get an equal amount of dollars to help their impoverished? What about addicts? What kind of people would you help?

...I'd like to help our own first well, but how?

What to do with refugee applicants who don't want to assimilate into American culture, is my main concern here.

Let's start with investing $64,000 in them and see where that gets us. I bet if we put all of the resources we are putting into refugees into AA and other American poor, we would see a world of difference.
