Manchester chief: Granite State may host 500 Syrian refugees
New Hampshire Union Leader ^ | 11/17/15 | Paul Feely

Posted on 11/18/2015 12:51:10 PM PST by BlatherNaut

Members of the Board of Mayor and Aldermen voted Tuesday night against a motion supporting Gov. Maggie Hassan's stance against accepting Syrian refugees in the state, following last week’s attacks in France.

Alderman Keith Hirschmann originally proposed the motion, saying the board would empower Mayor Ted Gatsas in any efforts to stop a potential influx of 500 refugees from Syria.

That figure came from Manchester Police Chief Nick Willard, who said he was told by members of the FBI that 500 Syrian refugees could be headed to New Hampshire.

"I was told during discussions with the FBI that 90,000 Syrian refugees are headed to the U.S., and 500 of them will be headed to New Hampshire," said Willard.

Willard said he had no further information about the expected influx, including when or where in the state the refugees would be headed.

90,000? These idiots can’t even get the numbers right. It is 10,000 and won’t begin arriving until mid-2016. The Syrians arriving now are arriving as immigrants. Yes we get a million legal immigrants very year.

It only took 19 Muslims to blow up the Twin Towers, hit the Pentagon, destroy hundreds of businesses, kill 3,000 people and destroy 4 airline jets. Are you guys INSANE?

It would be nice if Freeper idiots could get the facts right. Syrian refugees have already begun arriving in the US:

With the way this administration tells lies you believe the number the media if feeding the sheep or what the FBI is telling those in charge. Gee, I tend to believe the 90,000 number. Over 2,000 are already here.

Oh, great.

And Paul Ryan won’t do anything other than schedule a “show” vote.

New Hampshire, Connecticut, Colorado all accepting these problems. All governed by Democrats.

A couple of dozen states saying “Heck, no!” predominantly Republican.

When Bill Clinton lost the governorship in 1980, he primarily blamed Jimmy Carter getting him to take a lot of Cubans from the Mariel boatlift (and yes, the states’ cooperation was sought after).

We may see a repeat in 2016.

Once they are accepted by a State, they go everywhere, unaccounted for.

Lighten up guys (snix). Obama only wants to integrate them into our communities.

Here's Obama's immigration plan up-close.
Integrating Somali Muslims in the state of Maine.
