She should have gone to Brussels, frankly.

On the other hand it is good to remember that there are genuine people who need help out there in the world.

Oh look another regressive leftist oversimplifying a complicated issue. Apparently if you don't treat the refugees like a grandma trying to cross the road, then you're a right wing racist islamophobe.

I used to think of myself as left wing. But not since it's become synonymous with stupidity.

Oh look another regressive leftist conservative oversimplifying a complicated issue. Apparently if you don't treat the refugees like a grandma terrorist trying to cross the road destroy America, then you're a right wing racist islamophobe stupid bleeding heart Liberal.

I used to think of myself as left wing right wing. But not since it's become synonymous with stupidity.

That's how easy it is to flip what you just said and it sounds just as accurate.

Cool story bro. Don't suppose you have any of those pesky "facts" or "evidence" to back up your rant?

Didn't think so.

That's exactly what I mean though. The media seems to think that either you're a terrorist lover, or a racist.

When in reality most people are neither, they are just regular people that have legitimate concerns. But the media (and politicians) keeps blowing both angles out of proportion and in the mean time the legitimate concerns aren't being discussed or dealt with.

(I didn't mention the right wing portion in my original comment, since this is after all a left wing video).

What facts would you like me to present?

She's not addressing the media, she's talking about what the Republican candidates are saying.
The candidates are playing on people's fears by telling them that by accepting refugees will create an opportunity for terrorist groups to enter the country. She talks to people inside the system that determines who gets let through and where they go.
They demonstrate that it would be an extremely slow and inefficient way to move terrorists around the globe. It's all just a show to keep people focused on external threats, real or imagined.

She is the media, and she is presenting a one sided story here. How despicable to be using children to push a political agenda like this. The children at the start of this video have no idea about the reality of the situation in either direction. Their parents are terrible people for using them this way.
She is just as bad as the right wing politicians overplaying the fear, she is under playing it. And ignoring the real issues.

The real issue here is about difference in cultures, specifically a culture that hates women, human rights, and freedom, all justified by an equally hateful religion.

People aren't afraid of terrorists, but they are afraid of the US going through the same thing Europe is going through now.

I was a refugee myself BTW, from a communist country. But here's what I didn't do. I didn't keep living my life with communist values because it's obvious to me that those values were what made my country so bad. And I certainly didn't make everyone tolerant my old values, nor did I try to override other peoples human rights in order to appease my communist values.
I'd ask any other refugee to drop their own negative values as well if they truly want to integrate into a modern society. (Doesn't mean you have to pick up any negative values of modern society of course).
