Being anti-refugee due to fears of Islamic States makes no sense

Most of the refugees are anti-I.S. which is precisely why they're so scared of them, literally they spent their lives with Assad on one side trying to kill them and Islamic State on the other.


There is too much bigotry towards some of the most vulnerable people in the world who really need our help.

No one is anti-refugee. People are anti-terrorists-in-the-guise-of-refugees and anti-economic-migrants-in-the-guise-of-refugees.

The UK has done the right thing by allowing people in directly from the UN camps in the Middle East region instead of letting in the swath at Calais. Those disgusting people who still out of a most innate and foul greed and sense of entitlement want to come to the UK after passing through up to 11 safe countries. They deserve no help what so ever, if they were in need they would have integrated into France by now. Those that die during the winter only have themselves to blame, they know Northern Europe is cold. Why should we house foreign migrant men in hostels at the expense of our own unfortunates. How you can justify the deaths and suffering of Britons over migrants who we had the opportunity to prevent from coming here. The first responsibility of the government is to take care of its own citizens.

We're doing the right thing.

Not really. The reason why terrorists have been able to slip through the nets is because Turkey is letting them in and out of Europe freely, aided by the massive influx of refugees.

People don't want Islam to spread as it has already, and rightly so. Why should we be forced to host a religion that neither assimilates into its new surroundings, demands respect, and can't maintain a peaceful balance with other religions?

Europe has no obligation to take refugees, and we should not be called 'racist' or 'islamaphobic' for denying people entry.

If it makes sense to be fearful of IS, then it makes sense to be wary of ways in which IS could attack us, and one of those is pretending to be refugees.

Stepping up border security is a must
Look at the level of rape in Sweden and other Scandinavian countries and that shows why you should be afraid of third world migrants.

The fact that most of these migrants are Muslim is a reason to be afraid.

You've manipulated people's very simple concerns about the current refugee situation to turn them into a straw man you can feel good about criticizing. People who want to stop taking in refugees because of fears of ISIS are not "anti-refugee", they're just pro-security. They can see that having an open door to the territories where Islamic State have their largest strongholds is potentially a huge security hazard. If it was just actual refugees most people (such as myself) would not have a problem with it.

immigration is not the answer to that. We should be encouraging people to have more children through various methods such as tax breaks and financial incentives. We should not be displacing ourselves with third world immigrants and turning our country from white to brown.

"Rape Levels"?! And there is no rape in this country? Are you ****ed in the head?

Not only are you implying that third world immigrants are more likely to rape but you're also discriminating against a whole group of people based on their religion.
