Should America allow refugees in, particularly from the Middle East?

America has been known to help other countries thoughtfully by sending resources and troops. However, what happens when the problems from other countries are pushing innocent refugees into the U.S. that aren't all here for hospitality, but terrorism? Should we disallow all refugees to help protect the "Home of the brave" or take the risk and let people into the "Land of the Free"?

I can see the counter argument for sure, I mean.. I'm not ignorant and naive towards terrorism and how it happens.

However shutting the borders doesn't make the problem go away, it just moves it to another country, and you could ask if that is the proper solution to a global crisis.

No, we need to create a no fly zone in Syria (like we did for the Kurds in Iraq) so the refugees can stay there and be safe.

Side: No

Non citizens do not have a right to come to this country, nor do they have a right to become citizens; it is a privilege on both counts. That being said, the number one goal of government should be to protect and serve the best interests of We the People, not of outsiders.
