The NY Daily News is now unreadable. It was always a lefty paper (stridently pro-union) but it was marked by a stubborn streak of clear eyed "cut through the bs" common sense that made it worth reading.

No more.

What we really need to do, of course, is drop trou and bare it for anyone from Syia.

And no fair using Vaseline.

Oh, BS, Piers!

This IS ISLAM.
This IS WHAT THE KORAN TEACHES.

Yes, every religion has some radicals.
Islam has some moderates.

Governors, lack authority to stop Syrian refugees

The law governing acceptance of refugees, the Refugee Act of 1980, puts authority for admission of refugees in the hands of the president:

Signed by President Jimmy Carter.

“Christian Syrians...fine.

They really are persecuted.

Muslims...well no.”

How would you determine which ones are Christian? What I mean is, what’s to stop a Syrian Muslim from claims they’re a persecuted Christian?

Nobody is buying the left’s bullshit. When BHO ran in 2008, I warned people who he was and the results if he became president and, wow, the reaction. I tell people who he is today and the reaction is a lot different.
But, if climate change becomes the top concern in 2016, the DNC sill be in for a good night

The people rescuing ME Christians today check with the local bishop, priest and family. ME Christians are Orthodox or Catholic.

It can be done if there is a will to do it.

Based on the circumstances, I think the best bet is to say no to all of them. Besides, the last thing this country needs is more unskilled labor, Christian or otherwise, and an increase in people going on the government dole

Wouldn't surprise me . . . and the west could stop it in a instant if they simply closed the door to any male refugees from 15-50 unless they were accompanied by women and/or children.

Why don't we?

These are the Christians that are being slaughtered. They are true refugees, like the Jews during WWII

Maybe you should read this:

Syrian Christians are at greatest peril, least likely to be admitted

Note that the terrorist controlled UN is behind the ruthless discrimination against Christians.

As others have pointed out the congregations are known to the Bishops and Priests. Hell, just put a bunch of people together and see who the Muslims go after. Rescue them and dump the Jihadists in the nearest shark tank.

Why don’t refugees relocate in a countries where they have the same culture?

They can’t/won’t assimilate here. Can they speak English? Can they provide for themselves? Will they want taxpayer provided housing, food stamps, health care, sharia law?

So we rescue them, then what? In case people haven’t noticed, we have a lot of people out of work, our social programs are bankrupt or near bankrupt, and we have a 19 trillion dollar debt and rising.

Send all the muslims to New York? They’ll just scatter like cockroaches, so I’d say...no, don’t do that.

... Donald Trump joined the yahoo brigade American patriots by describing Syrian refugees as a Trojan horse, meaning that ISIS operatives bent on death and destruction would be among those admitted to the U.S.

There. I fixed it.
