    One in a million is pretty good odds unless you are a hysterics who has been frightened by politicians and media types who benefit from doing so.

    Yeah, pretty easy to say when it's not your loved ones dying as a result. If it were, you'd probably be upset that they adopted an unnecessary policy that led to their death.

    Of course, judging by your past comments, you probably aren't all that against the Paris attack to begin with.

    And you know its one in a million how????

    Last week you wouldn't have even admitted to the one would you? And after Friday, it looks like just 8 of them can cause unbelievable carnage with easy to obtain weapons.

    It only took 19 hijackers to do 9/11 didn't it?

    Future refugees will be punished by this - they are the ones who will have nowhere to go. This is what ISIS wants. They must be laughing at this situation, they are literally creating the exact havoc and the exact reaction they planned on.

    More than just ISIS would love to see the refugees with nowhere to go. . . . I'm still wondering who did this.

    (Yes I've heard the "passport lying on the street" story like 9/11. . . .)

    I predicted that the first people blaming this on Mossad/Israel/USA would come out of their stinking holes soon enough.

    I think we should be open to accepting more refugees, but I don't get this logic.

    Why would ISIS care what we do about the refugees? They just want to kill as many westerners as possible. And if they can sneak in with refugees, then maybe they want more open boarders

    The solution looks clear, ship all of them to Maryland and DC.

    Because they want western gov't to appear as xenophobic as possible which helps them brainwash more people into thinking the west hates Muslims.

    This is how they recruit more jihadists into their ranks.

    Maybe but they don't seem to have any problem recruiting people who already LIVE in western countries

    Clearly the best way to prevent ISIS recruitment is to allow them into the US to carry out terrorist attacks here. I'm sure they won't recruit ANYONE based on their successful attack in Paris.

    I have no f&#$ing clue who did this.

    Where are all the conservatives crying about the "mainstream media" now? They gobble up what the "MSM" says hook line and sinker.

    You are an idiot. Sorry, don't usually make such strong remarks, but you are most definitely an idiot.

    Who do you think was responsible for 9/11 btw?

    but it isn't that simple. it's been noted and stated by ISIS themselves that their goal in these exercises is to force the west to completely alienate muslims in their respective countries, so much so that they become disenfranchised and join the ranks of ISIS. they WANT us to make these statements, to harass all muslims, to talk about deporting them and imprisoning them until they snap. at that point when they've increased their ranks they'll attempt to wage an apocalyptic war with the west. that is actually their stated goal. these are doomsdayers all the way.

    europes borders are significantly more porous than ours. our refugee process is the most stringent in the world. it really isn't apples to apples.

    So if ISIS can come into America they will turn it down and say naw guys we would rather you close your borders so you make more liberals and jihadists angry?

    If isis comes to America, it's more likely from the billions they make a year than planting some needle in a haystack marked for first ur second level surveillance.
