Banning refugees will give the critics of our nation more fodder for attacks against our nation. Be they political or terrorist.
The critics don't have facts or stats in their favor, though. In fact, they don't even have majority support. Terrorists don't care one way or the other. They're already here. Don't you think they exploited Obama's stance on immigration and the U.S./Mexico border? Border Security says they did, regardless of a ban.
Hell, they're being brought here freely, by planes. Why else are the settled ones bringing in diseases at record numbers?

They're not being vetted properly and the terrorists especially know this. They even said they would take advantage of our weak system years ago.
Did you watch that recent video of that U.S. Marine that had to leave Iraq? Take it from him. They're masters of deception.

The sad fact is, since when do facts and stats matter? Especially to our nation's critics.
And no Terrorist group has majority support. -

Since when? Since always. I don't care how clueless they are. They should be educated.
And no Terrorist group has majority support.
What? I didn't say that. I said the ban does.

Because our government's duty is not to it's people, but the world's approval.
If we are accepting refugees, our critics have no reason to point at us and say "Look at how terrible they are!"
Our enemies will call it weak and naïve.
If we turn them away, they have more ammunition to sling at us. That may cause the fringe to turn away from us and towards our enemies.
Our enemies behead, torture, kill, commit horrific acts around the globe.
It's ridiculous to think that someone would find that a worthy alternative to accepting some policy.
Ridiculous that acts by Muslim extremist groups do not inspire your outrage a fraction as much as a little security protocol does.
And if the prospect of not being able to make a home in the U.S. is enough to drive you into the arms of jihadis, you weren't worth courting and we're better off with you far away.

Banning refugees will give the critics of our nation more fodder for attacks against our nation. Be they political or
terrorist
.
but if they're already inclined towards terrorism then how will an immigration ban from the countries such scum typically hail from make things worse?
Indeed, you also surely can't be be implying that strict immigration controls will somewhow compel otherwise peaceable citizens into instigating mass murder.or are you?!
If we are accepting refugees, our critics have no reason to point at us and say "Look at how terrible they are!"
But Germany, France, the U.K., Belgium and not least the U.S. have all been subjected to Islamic terrorism - none of whom were enacting any purportedly controversial immigration bans at the time, as evidenced by some of those attacks being perpetrated by purported 'refugees'!
If we turn them away, they have more ammunition to sling at us.
This is perversely remiscent of the stoning scene in Life of Brian where the condemned is warned just before his execution that he's making it
worse
for himself by repeating the name "Jehovah".
And coincidentally his adroit response to John Cleese's high priest is precisely mine to your rather silly assertions

The real question is:
If Muslim refugees have nothing to do with terrorism, than why bother banning them?
Zero American deaths in America have happened from anyone from the seven countries named in the ban.
Trump lies:
Mexico is going to pay for the wall.
I can stop federal funds. -

Because they do have something to do with terrorism. ISIS said they'd use refugees to commit terrorist attacks, much like they have been doing in Europe. Duh.
Zero American deaths in America have happened from anyone from the seven countries named in the ban.
Remember the Ohio State Stabber? Somalian.
No deaths, but it must be inconvenient for you.

If Muslim refugees have nothing to do with terrorism, then why will banning refugees cause terrorism?
