Invaders or Asylum Seekers?

Today I will be talking about refugees and their place in America or rather lack there of. In the article http://www.texasinsider.org/cong-babin-the-presidents-reckless-refugee-policies-are-putting-american-lives-at-risk/ by  the "Texas Insider"  it discusses the dangers of allowing refugees to come into america with out proper screening. They inform the reader that several federal agencies have admitted to the lack of resources needed to properly screen each refugee for possible ISIS connections. However keeping in mind this article was written to control the american agenda by placing fear in the hearts of the everyday American. Its interesting how an article talking about credibility does not post the author of their Article. Where this article fails is not in in there passion to protect the american people and its interests but rather they fail by not giving a solution to the problem that will allow for america to shine a a beacon to all those in need. If america fights for freedom and democracy then how can we, as a nation turn away people who need our help. Texas congress is wrong to tell innocent people to go away with out offering a solution. America (INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO TEXAS) was born from the dreams of people seeking asylum willing to leaving everything in the hope of a better life, the Obama administration is allowing for America to stand as beacon, as an example, and as a role model to the world that we will provide and over come any obstacle.


“Give me your tired, your poor,
Your huddled masses yearning to breathe free,
The wretched refuse of your teeming shore.
Send these, the homeless, tempest-tossed, to me:
I lift my lamp beside the golden door.”
