Paul, I know you don't like it when I generalize...but liberals have a very common and tiresome habit, of responding to something very different from what was actually said.

Paul, if I said "every murder since the dawn of time has been carried out by Islamic terrorists who came here as refugees", then your response (that culling Muslim immigration wouldn't reduce murders to zero) would be valid. Since I never said anything remotely close to that, your response isn't remotely close to being pertinent.

No single legislative item will eliminate all crime. But we should be able to agree on common sense, low-hanging fruit.

I said that Trump's plan might reduce the likelihood of future attacks like the one that just happened at Ohio State. Why do I say that? Because (1) Trump's proposal is to suspend Muslim immigration from refugees fleeing known terror hotspots, and (2) the Ohio State terror attack was carried out by a Muslim refugee from a known terror hotspot. Is that really going too fast for you? I hardly think so.

Will that eliminate the violence in Chicago every weekend? No. Will it eradicate mass shootings carried out by the mentally ill? No. Will it reduce the likelihood of future attacks like the one we just saw? Yes.

We should review the refugee program and make sure we are doing it right. Problem is a lot of professionals that do this for a living do not think we can properly vet some of these people. Even if we could there would still be some leakers or later converts. Director Comey stated vetting would be unreliable


Lanza and Roof were not Muslim nor refugee but they were bad guys and they will do the time for the horrendous crimes they committed (assuming the ACLU does not get them off as victims) but they are not germane to this discussion.

Testifying before Congress, Mr. Comey said when the Islamic State of Iraq and Syria is destroyed – and he promised it would be destroyed – there will be more terror to come. For once the so-called caliphate becomes “crushed,” many militants from Western nations will flow from the area and create new security threats, he said.
“There will be a terrorist diaspora sometime in the next two to five years like we’ve never seen before,” Mr. Comey said.
Like. We’ve. Never. Seen. Before.
His warning comes on the heels of bombings in New York and New Jersey by a radicalized jiadist, and a separate stabbing attack at a Minnesota mall. Within one year, Islamic terrorists have killed 63 people on U.S. soil alone.
