    Very difficult situation but we need to protect our own. 911 & the Boston bombing are two of several reasons why we cannot allow this. You know terrorist infiltrates will be amoung them and those who will turn on us,despite our generosity. Find other ways to help without bringing them here. .

    I know that it's important to show compassion, but we have Americans struggling every day to make ends meet. I know people that work 3 jobs to keep a roof over their heads. I know single parents that are homeless but trying to keep it together to give their child the best life at the moment. We and others can barely afford student loans or to go to college. Some can't even afford to buy a house yet. People struggle to put food on the table for their families every day, but "make too much" to qualify for any type of government funded assistance. I see the struggle every day where I'm from. This is why I can not agree with allowing the US handing out more free money when you have millions in need right here at home in your 50 states

    Let us take in exactly the same number of impoverished poorly-educated Middle Eastern/North African illegal aliens that their religious brethren in oil-rich Muslim nations have taken in......ZERO

    I don't want Syrians here, they are mostly young men who can fight for their country, motly Muslims who demand and demand. They hate Americans, Christians, Jews and will impose sharia law, they don't want to assimilate. Congressmen, listen to your constituents and people of USA. Polls show tht 85% don't want Iran deal, I'm sure the same 80% will not want Syrians, the want welfare.

    We don't need anymore refugees. Especially Muslims. Bad enough we have illegal Mexicans hurting American people.

    This country is absolutely out of it's mind! I cannot even afford to eat every night and work 60+ hours a week, get absolutely no help from the government and they want to take my tax dollars and house potential terrorists? One bad apple spoils the whole bunch! What about the people who already live here!?

    Don't we have enough problemspace now? Debt is over 18 trillion. How can we afford this? Clear Syria, send them all back home. No more US money to Palestine, it's sent to terrorist. Why are we so stupid ?

    Regardless of the refugee's religions, they are humans, and they have risked their lives to flee horrors we have never faced. It's our responsibility as a wealthy nation to help them and take some of them in.

    1). We can't afford it 2). We can't trust them 3). Our welfare system is already taxed 4). Refugees get benefits (housing, medical, school, daycare, food, etc) that many Americans are doing without!

    It breaks my heart to see the images of children dying while trying to flee the atrocities that have taken over their homeland. We should help any way we can which includes sending aid and, at the very least, bring over the human beings who can not defend themselves. We should never fear the consequence of helping others.

    I corrected the typos and you printed the draft without corrections. Was that to make us look ignorant voicing our concerns?

    after Thursday's shootings in Tenn. we cannot risk our security allowing people that hate us and refuse to abide by our laws into our country. There will be terrorists pising as Syrians getting in and we are in for another 9/11. Don't play with American lives. They are a security threat to our entire nation

    We know that the IS killers are prevalent in Syria. This is an open door for them to get into the U.S., using false identities. As you know IS is a very, very wealthy group of killers and they are more than capable of sneaking into the U.S. WE THE PEOPLE do NOT WANT THIS. Please, send humanitarian aide instead!!
