Quote from: Fagcicle on November 16, 2015, 09:01:29 PMReminder that the states have no legal standing on the matter.One has already put in executive orders to refuse it. If that will do anything.
And they could still not allow anyone in, unless the government steps in and forces it upon them.
Marijuana isn't legal under federal law, but the government isn't exactly stopping them. As another example, I think when the drinking age was raised from 18 to 21, Louisiana was the last state the raise it. The government taxed the crap out of them so they'd do it.

If they won't step in for those, why this?
Quote from: Jagdtiger on November 16, 2015, 10:00:10 PMLol go figure. Of course the hickbelt and the majority of red states won't take in any.It's for the refugees own safety that they are not accepted there. They'd probably get lynched down south.

Reminder that these are not refugees- they are migrants.

Here is a full list of states rejecting refugees:Michigan
Thank god Christie is sane. I don't want any of those MIGRANTS here in NJ.
I see no reason why we shouldn't accept a good handful of refugees from Syria. We'd probably just need to have decent background checking.

They're literally not even functioning right now.
I don't think the suggestion is to conduct them in Syria...
At least one terrorist posed as a refugee/US states refuse to accept them
