That is the problem, let them fix the mess over there.  Seems they just want the USA to come over, fight whoever they don't like for them, then when we leave, bring them back with us rather then stay and fix what we helped them with.  The whole "Who would notice.." Thing is the problem here in the USA.  Ask the indians about uncontrolled immigration.  I am sure at one time or another many of them said, "Eh, a few more won't hurt."  The problem is, they are already hurting us here.  Look at the mess with urban sprawl, the protests from illegals across the USA, they aren't even citizens yet they act like we owe them everything.  They don't pay taxes, yet they want the top police protection in their neighborhoods, only when they want it though.  They expect you to speak their language when going to a resturant, yet it is not in their country.  The whole apathetic attitude is one of the biggest problems here.  Rather then saying, "What is a few more?"  We should be saying, "No more. We have enough already."  There used to be standards and requirements to enter the USA and become a citizen, actually there still are, no one enforces them though.  Instead of pushing the illegals off onto another election, it needs to be dealt with now.  Giving them all citizenship is not the answer either.

They will do what everyone else from the Middle East does when they get here. They will get low interest government backed minority loans and open a gas station/convenience store.

They should give them all guns.
"Hey, see those guys over there dressed up like Cops?"
"They're all Kurds!"

Good afternoon, not sure I agree with them shooting at the police department...  Unless we just give them one or two rounds each, so the police can shoot back legally.  I will say I got a laugh from your idea though.

I don't think they open them, just buy them from whoever owns them once the rest of the neighborhood goes to hell and the origianl owner wants out.   Your right though, or a Dunkn' Doughnuts.  I saw them in everyone in New York when I was there.  Not the best on customer service either.

Yeah, and just hope there isn't 30 of them in one house with a cesspool in the backyard!

Good point.  Wish they would do something about them around here, they can take over an apartment complex almost as fast as other illegals can.

Citizens of Detroit should hope that one of these refugees, can cover LaBron James.

I'm sure I will screw it up somehow.
 
Who do you like in the finals? I'm thinking the Spurs in five games.

And they will probably achieve more in the next decade than many Americans have in totality since their forefathers stepped off the mayflower.
