They have it where borders are more tightly integrated than our borders.

The process to enter Greece as a refugee is totally different than the US. You can't even compare with a straight face.

My point is that countries which in many ways have stricter border controls than we do have had some come in to Europe. We are not going to be able to cherry pick which ones we take in.

I am not against taking in refugees but I think the hoops need to be pretty tight

Not from Syria , but haven't we had two attacks already in this country from terrorist that have been through that process ? So to say it can't happen would be a lie because it has happened .
I believe both in France and in Brussels, Syrian refugees were at least reported to be involved .

I'm not aware of any attacks in this country by people who have been through the same process as what Syrian refugees would go through.

Pretty sure all the known Paris attackers were of EU citizenship, same goes for Brussles.

What is with all this logic ? Can't you see you are contradicting the GOP fear mongering counterpoints?

It is lawyer-parse. Spence, like Hilary, significantly parses words to guide the conversation away from the buried bones.

No it's just specific.
