Isn’t it amazing how the liberals can refuse to enforce federal laws on immigration (sanctuary cities) but then demands States follow federal law when it comes to resettling Syrian refugees (terrorist) in the States!!!!

That’s a great point!

[Las Vegas Ron]

If Ryan and McConnell had a grain of creativity were'n in on this deliberate destruction of America they would already have an emergency bill on the floor that they could DARE the Dems to filibuster. I can tell you that those on the coasts, including about half of the lefties, after Paris, are more antsy about these folks coming in some ways than those in the heartland.

They’re burning temporary refugee housing in Europe before they can be occupied .

Civil disobedience at work. Thank-you states that say NO!

[Brad from Tennessee]

If the disbursement, by state, of illegal aliens through “executive amnesty” is any indication, the bulk of “Syrian refugees” will be resettled in Red and Purple states. This is an ongoing political operation to change the voting demographics in Republican and bipartisan states.

ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT STUDIES. refugees cause global warming....

——officials -—

aka bleeding heart coexist liberals that need to be protested where they live until their neighbors insist they move

[PAR35]

To paraphrase Joe Stalin: “How many divisions does Lucy Carrigan have?”

[DoodleDawg]

Enforce it.

How? That's the problem. If some agency in New York has rented accommodations in Milwaukee and moves a dozen Syrians into them then how can Wisconsin enforce their ban on the Syrians? The can't arrest them - no crime has been committed. They can't sic the INS on them - they're here legally. They can't deny them any state assistance - not unless they also deny the assistance to other foreigners here legally. Unless Congress puts an end to it - fat chance on that - then it looks liker there isn't anything the states can do about it.

It is not the FBI’s job.

Time to close, by force if necessary, all these refugee enablers, who by the way get lots of taxpayer money to ply their human trafficking trade. Under the guise of “Christian” organizations they a flooding the country with non-believers who have no intention of assimilating.

Start with the Lutherans, and I am a Lutheran.

Arrest the Feds and make the Supremes rule.

[subterfuge]

Nice, but the pyramid is upside down.

[Norm Lenhart]

Oh...the crime is Endangering the public/Reckless endangerment. Non vetted immigrants. Add ‘Under color of Authority and make it a RICO case.

[Sequoyah101]

Why limit to Syrians?

[dfwgator]

This is how Civil Wars start.

[Resolute Conservative]

I know that, but since when did that stop Barry from his agenda?

[Oldeconomybuyer]

It ain't over 'till it's over...

I pray you're right.

[bestintxas]

My governor needs to show me where I need to go and help stop this suicide attempt by Obama

[ozarkgirl]

Although I wish it were different I don't see how it can be stopped.

Get the people behind it and see how hard it is for the feds to endorse. Remember that city in California where they wanted to dump a bunch of those "kids" coming from our Southern Border? That's how.
