ORIGINAL: kdsub And DC you never heard me say middle eastern refugees should not be allowed into the US. I said... "thought it wise to be more selective on who we allowed within our borders. We wanted to slow things down and be more careful in screening." I believe the above may limit, though never completely stop, the infiltration of extremists. I have said the above in every thread I commented in... I do find it hard to understand how this can be misconstrued into not caring about the suffering and wanting to seal our boarders to all in need. I don't remember you calling for any sort of restraint on the "cuban refugees"

I also wanted to make a point on the difference in refugees and emigrants. Many on these boards seem to think a refugee camp is a dirty word. It is not and they are needed and could be the answer. Most of these people are refugees forced from their homes by violence and would return to their homes at the end of this civil war and ISIS aggression and oppression. Those that wish to permanently emigrate should be vetted before they are allowed to move freely in their adopted country. I believe this is the responsible course. No citizen of a country should be put at risk without at least an attempt made to limit the risk. Butch

It is not and they are needed and could be the answer. Did we do that for the cuban refugees? Those that wish to permanently emigrate Emigrate is temorary movement out of one country to another. The word you are looking for is immigrate, which is to come as a perminant resident in another country. should be vetted before they are allowed to move freely in their adopted country. I believe this is the responsible course. No citizen of a country should be put at risk without at least an attempt made to limit the risk. Just like we did with the cuban refugees"?

This from the link I posted... 'Ahmad Al Mohammad' - died in suicide bomb at Stade de France The real name of the suicide bomber apparently carrying a fake Syrian passport when he detonated at the Stade de France remains a mystery, but officials say he entered Europe as an asylum seeker less than two months earlier. This is one...others had recently left to fight and train with ISIS and came back into their adopted countries... without passports... how do you think they made it back? Butch

em·i·grate ˈeməˌɡrāt/ verb leave one's own country in order to settle permanently in another. "Rosa's parents emigrated from Argentina" synonyms: move abroad, move overseas, leave one's country, migrate; More I think both can be used don't you?

Emigrate is to leave ones country with the purpose of settling in another country. Immigrate is to move into the country of destination with the purpose of settling. Migrate is to pass periodically from one region to another ( as certain birds and animals do) and if you want a cite on that, it's in the Macquarie Dictionary as well as the Oxford.

ORIGINAL: Lucylastic ORIGINAL: thompsonx Most of the history I have read about that dust up (not extensive) seemed to revolve around the catholics and the protestants. You know I am an athiest so I have no dog in that fight. How about a quick thumbnail from your perspective.

ORIGINAL: Dvr22999874 Emigrate is to leave ones country with the purpose of settling in another country. Immigrate is to move into the country of destination with the purpose of settling. That was my understanding, that emigrate is to immigrate as go is to come, and that for the former perminance was not a criteria.

How do you like your crow tonight....[:D] Did You Know? Migrate, emigrate, and immigrate are all about being on the move. All those terms come from the Latin word migrare, which means "to move from one place to another." Emigrate and immigrate sound alike, and it is true that both involve leaving one location and entering another. The subtle difference between them lies in point of view: emigrate stresses leaving the original place, while immigrate focuses on entering the new one. You won't have trouble keeping them straight if you remember that the prefix e- means "away," as in eject, and the prefix im- or in- means "into," as in inject. From the Webster Dictionary... But really who cares.

Politesub, how am I trying to curtail your right to use free speech? I am talking about my right to express how I feel. Also, my family on both sides have been in this country since slavery. {over 150 years} I am a Black American. Why are you asking me how I feel about Africian immigration? Because I am Black? Racial profiling In response to post #168

ORIGINAL: kdsub We never discussed it have we?... Start another thread I'll be glad to give my opinion. That was my point. You have expressed your desire to help the "cuban refugees" with never a hint that they should be veted. About 400,000 cubans have come here. How may arab refugees are we talking about???? 10,000 or so?
