[quote=Anonymous][quote=jsteele][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The problem is that the vast majority are single men, not families. I personally would not take that risk.[/quote]

So you take in a family with a father and son and expect them not to act like single men when they are coming from a patriarchal society hmm[/quote]

That's the point.  They I've w backward culture that isn't compatible with liberalized western values [/quote]

This is such BS and I am really tired of seeing it repeated ad nauseam. Are you suggesting that Khizr Khan has a backward culture that isn't compatible with liberalized western values?

Jeff, I generally agree with you on Middle Eastern issues, but comparing Khzir Khan's beliefs to that of a Syrian refugee is not ideal.  Khan and his wife -- like many Pakistanis and Indians of their generation --- made a decision to be educated in their countries so that would be more attractive as emigres to the US.  Khan is a lawyer and may hold some traditional Islamic values but he is very westernized.  I suspect the Khan's children are like the typical second generation Pakistanis and Indians who post on DCUM about the same first world concerns as Americans whose families have been here for a few  more generations.
