"For the cost of resettling 1 refugee in U.S., we can assist 10 in their home country" - common sense!

some people believe that helping others in need is a benefit.

Then how come you and he aren't keeping refugees living in your homes? It's hard to believe what you say when you do otherwise.

Because thats inefficient. For the same reason you arent teaching kids but expect for everyone to pay for public education. It's hard to believe what you say when you do otherwise.

What if their need is to overrun your country and shove their values such as honor killings, female genital mutilation, and sharia law down your throat? Can you explain how that benefits you or me?

Not our problem.

Well, if the US is the country bombing them or fueling militarism in their country...maybe we could just stop that.

Lol, it's "inefficient." You could at least volunteer or something. Just be honest that you don't want to. Your virtue signaling so phony and people can see it.

Schools have tangible benefits. Refugees don't. You just want to "help people," without putting in any effort yourself.

Entirely your problem.

The countries Trump is referring to are bombed daily by the USA and most of the conflicts were in some way created by or accelerated by the USA.

It's literally your fault.

Honor killings aren't a Muslim thing, it's a thing amongst some ethnic minorities which includes people of different faiths; Christians, Hindus, Muslims and Sikhs

FGM is huge in predominantly Christian African countries.

Sharia law isn't what you think it is.

The overwhelming majority of honor killings and FGM's in this country are committed by muslims, and exclusively out of religious convictions ultimately based upon the koran. Some non-muslims in other countries may do those things but its a cultural phenomenon; however muslims are the only major group that commit them for religious reasons.Please do your own research into sharia law, and stop being a flunky for CAIR/The Muslim Brotherhood.

Entirely wrong.

Honour killings predate most modern religions, including Islam. Honor killings are popularly carried out by people of a particular decent, in particular Indian/Pakistani people. They are of typically Hindu, Sikh or Muslim faith. The religion is unimportant and in none of these religious texts does it mention anything about honour killing. I know the Qur'an specifically outlaws it and Islamic councils around the world have condemned it and said it is un-Islamic to carry out these crimes. Hindu and Sikh leaders have done the same.

Please show me evidence to the contrary.

FGM is a massively African problem. It is hugely popular amongst many African states with large numbers or majority Christian populations - but again religion has nothing to do with it. It is cultural once more. Typically the religions of the people involved are Christian, Muslim or some local, traditional religion.

In Egypt it is very popular, and girls that are Christian, Muslim or otherwise, are mutilated in equal abundance. The story is very much similar in Eritrea, Ethiopia, Burkina Faso, CAR, Chad, Guinea, Kenya, Liberia, Mali, Nigeria and many more countries; FGM is not limited to those of Islamic faith in any shape or form. It is entirely cultural. In Guinea 94% of Christian women are cut. In Nigeria, 54% of Christians are cut whilst only 7% of Muslims are.

Interestingly this cultural divide can be seen very clearly in Gambia. Gambia is 90% Muslim but the rates of FGM differs wildly between different regions and ethnic groups within the country.

Whilst all Muslim, some ethnic groups there have a FGM prevalence of over 95% whilst others as low as 12%.

You also know nothing about Sharia law and that is too complex a topic to try and discuss with someone as dense as you I'm afraid.

If you love it so much when women are stoned, gays are thrown off the roof, journalists are beheaded... just move to a Muslim country. No need to important that stuff to the USA.

It's funny, those liberals are always screaming about women's and gay's rights, but when it really matters, they choose for the extremely oppressive Sharia.

you're conflating not discriminating based on religion with advocating for sharia law, which is an amazing leap on your part.

I've never understood why people who are anti-ismalic assume that everyone who is against discriminating against muslims automatically advocates for sharia law. It's like the idea of just not having separate rules based on religion is completely beyond them.
