A fascinating, EXTREMELY well-thought-out-piece. And the title is not clickbait -- but a way of coming at the main point from an unexpected angle.

You'll be dumbstruck with awe, and grinning to yourself by the end.

Spread it around!

[Chode]

then they would act civilized and NOT like a bunch of animals...

“What if the Refugees Were Blonde and Blue-Eyed Swedes?”

OK. Question 2
How many blond blue-eyed Swedes have committed terror attacks over the past 10 years. Hmmmmmmm?

[dead]

Terrific opinion piece. Thanks for posting!

[I want the USA back]

If the blond and blue-eyed refugees raped women, sliced heads while yelling “Allaku Akbar “ and crucified Christians I still would reject them.

[InterceptPoint]

I have some pretty strong opinions on this subject but they are founded on two principles:

1. I don’t believe we have any responsibility to take in refugees of any sort. I’m just not a that sort of humanitarian. We should do what’s good for us.

2. I believe that the media and politicians have defined our natural human desire to maintain our fundamentally European/Christian based culture as racism. It isn’t.

A good example of the second item is seen in the behavior of the great majority of people who are immigrating to the United States. They live together. They speak their native language.They hold on dearly to the culture they grew up with. It is human nature to do so.

So, I guess that makes me a “racist”. So be it. I like my culture. I like the English language. And I don’t want my head chopped off.

[Carry me back]

The guy is a idiot.

[ImJustAnotherOkie]

They would smell better.

[MrB]

I’ll answer the author’s question.

Yes, indeed. It WOULD make a difference.
But not because of any so-called “racism”.

OUR CULTURE IS VALUABLE AND WORTHY OF BEING PRESERVED.

GET IT?

[ThePatriotsFlag]

What if the immigrants were blue eyed Swedes...worse yet what if they were Democrats?

[TexasFreeper2009]

If they still wanted to kill us, I would be just as opposed to them coming here.

[The Sons of Liberty]

It boils down to culture.If we want America to become a third world hell-hole like all the Middle Eastern muzzie countries, then 0bama's plan is the way to go. If we want a safe, civilized country then tell 0bama to GO TO HELL!

It is interesting that you post this article at this time, especially the second portion, when my neighbors here in Germany ask the quadrennial question, who is going to be the next president? When I respond that it should be Ted Cruz, I receive blank stares. Just two evenings ago I was in discussion with a well-educated doctor, head of his department, American educated, and better informed than most Germans who gave me a blank stare just as the others had.

So I said to him, "don't think George Bush, think Ronald Reagan." This is a step in the right direction for most Germans but only a baby step. They have to be reminded that they were in the streets by their hundreds of thousands protesting Ronald Reagan and his installation of missiles in Europe. They have to be reminded of his alliance with Maggie Thatcher in the Pope to bring down the Soviet Union. They look at you with astonishment when you cite with approval Reagan's strategy about the Cold War, "we win, they lose."

I have a favorite litmus test which I use here in Germany with frequency, I ask, "who is the greatest man of the twentieth century?" In Germany one never ever gets the answer, Winston Churchill. You are more likely to get the answer, Gorbachev and certainly more likely to get the Conrad Adenauer.

You have to understand that there is almost no contrary voice to the leftist version of world politics, America's overweening interference around the world is caused most of the world's problems. George Bush is the physical embodiment of evil incarnate (pardon my redundancy).

So the second half of this article comes in very handy at this season and will be reproduced and sent by me to many of my German interlocutors.

Thanks for the post.

How many Swedes have ever hijacked four American airliners and flown them into buildings? How many Norweigians have bombed busses in London or shot up nightclubs in Bali or murdered hotel guests in India or slaughtered children at schools in Beslan? How many Lithuanians blow themselves up in a year? How many Danes set off kettle bombs at marathons?

False equivalency is not only logically unsound, it will be the death of us.

“....2% of whom were terrorists planning to kill you....”

[SkyDancer]

I don’t know how many blond blue-eyed mussie terrorists are out there, but ....

Refugees from various wars:

WWI

WWII

Korean War

Vietnam

Mostly women, children and the elderly displaced by war, unable to fight and fleeing to safety while their able bodied young men (often) are absent, either dead or fighting. Now let's look at the Syrian refugees.

Hmmmmm. Something seems different....

[Scooter100]

Analogy: This whole story is like those evil Newfoundlanders annually clubbing those cute little baby seals to death in order to cull the herds that over-populate and destroy the fishery.

Answer: yes, the Newfoundlanders club those cute seals to cull the herds, even though they are so damned cute.

Conclusion: The New World Order crowd also wants to "cull the herd" by killing 3/4 of the human population because they are over-populating and destroying the earth. Is this idea humane, or just murder?

[Thorliveshere]

Good article. Don’t let the title throw you....

[GingisK]

They’d probably be well-behaved.

[Irenic]

Good, very good.

Congratulations, Europeans!

You got the U.S. president you were pining for!
