You are one crazy paranoid SOB. He's most likely talking to fellow cab drivers, friends or family. By the way, many DC cab drivers are Ethiopean.


Yes, I know. The one from NoVa was ultimately detained when he fled to Somolia.

It's the three cell phones that make me nervous. You know who carries three cell phones? Cheaters, dealers and terrorists.


My dad has multiple cell phones one personal on our family plan and the other's for work. He is not allowed to use his personal phone for business, I'm guessing it has something to do with his clearance and sensitive data but Idk. I thought most companies provide cell phones to their employees, especially if they are higher up the ladder.


That means two cells: one for work, and one personal. Who needs three? And the track phones are the most worrisome.

Track phones aren't worrisome. It's one of the cheapest ways of calling your family in another country. Life isn't an episode of 24.

Can someone please tell me how you vet someone with zero documents?

No one?

One prepaid phone for international calls? Most drivers have their families back home. At least the ones I've met.

DC doesn't have an immigrantion office even so they really can't take anyone regardless of any circumstances. DC simply is unable to take any. Further since ISIS called out DC as a target to attack, I can't see sending them there. As for Maryland, they have a republican governor now so I am surprised he isn't saying no and because geographically they are next to DC. Same for VA


If there are no terrorists among these refugees, then having them go to DC shouldn’t be an issue, now should it?
But, if there ARE terrorists in their midst, well..................

Yeah, that is nice that the governors are writing those letters and all, however, they cannot stop someone who is legally in the US from moving to their state.

I will agree with this (the rest of your post is garbage)

Those most likely to commit attacks will be the alienated, first generation who grew up here and don't feel like they "fit in" to American society.
TBH, immigrant parents need to do a better of job of letting their first generation children assimilate. Those who try raise their kids as if they are back in the "old country" just tend to produce maladjusted misfits. They then rebel - one of which is the child turning to a violent strain of Islam.


No need to agree with me. Perhaps I'm being irrational. But there's a Muslim cab driver from Northern VA on the FBI's most wanted terrorist list. Perhaps he's the only one...but it really only takes one, right? (Especially if he's very familiar with the streets, travel patterns, traffic, police, security, etc.)



Yes. Correct Just a few terrorists killed thousands in NY and 130 in Paris

You can't bomb ideas out of existence. But you can change people's minds by being kind to them.

George Wallace would be so very proud. Someone needs to remind the knuckledraggers about the Refugee Act of 1980. No doubt an asshole like Greg Abbott is researching some half-baked theory upon which he can sue the Administration and politicize the issue as we move toward the election next November. The talking points about not being able to vet refugees also needs to be quashed. The proposal as it currently stands is to have a two year process for a limited number of individuals. We will be able to track social networks and contacts during that period. If there are any doubts then that person won't be admitted. So don't expect to see many single men in the 20's without college degrees and professional skills and experience.

1) It's naive to think ISIS hasn't slipped in some wolves among the sheep, if only to conduct Mafia-style shakedowns of the regular refugees.

1a) A Polish cabinet minister has actually suggested forming military units out of the refugees. If we can do that, why the hell not -- bring in some FSA types to oversee the training and build up their ranks.

2) Problem with barring the door is that we now turn some number of the regular refugees or worse yet American citizen Muslims into Daesh sympathisers. Who, of course, can now slip into the country fairly easily, despite the fervent wishes of Trump's wall (which if started in January 2017, wouldn't be ready until the end of 2018), not to mention our oceans and longer, harder to monitor Canadian border.
