The reason why I say it doesn't make sense is because: who it is that is objecting to the idea that we should be vetting immigrants from the countries who hate us? We need immigrants, that's a fact. But I have stated clearly that we need to know who is walking into our "house". I also want to know why those who are being persecuted aren't first in line? Why?
Liberals deny that there are world-issues and believe that all is well in the world when, in fact, they are not. The theory of not believing what they hear from the bad guys and that these guys are "misunderstood" and need blankets and cumbia and everything will turn out alright is simply sticking your head in the sand. All I'm saying is that while don't need to be paranoid we do have to be vigilant.
BTW, who was it rioting in the streets and destroying property, attacking people because they couldn't accept the result of the election? Certainly wasn't conservatives. So who are the terrorists now? Oh I can hear it now - it's was "activists". Right!
I came across a saying that fits perfectly with some of the posters here on CC that also want to blame everything bad that happens on white 'Christian" men, aka "conservatives" and it is very appropriate. It goes something like:
..."just because you stand in a church doesn't make you a Christian any more than standing in a garage makes you a car".
This is true of all religions. If the countries in question were Christian and were attacking and killing people at random because of their faith, I would want those people vetted too. That would only make sense. We need to be a caring and companionate society but we can't be stupid about it.
Hopefully, once the temporary ban has been lifted, everyone will be clear on their responsibilities and know what to look for and accept the vast majority who are looking forward to the freedom (such as it is) that we (some of us anyway) have. Those freedoms are becoming harder and harder to come by simply because of Political Correctness and so-called hurt feelings and guess who leads the charge in that regard - hint - it's not conservatives.
JMHO
