I couldn't agree with you more, Marie. I am grateful for the energy, hard work, and new (to me) ideas that every immigrant (including every refugee) I have met (and I have met hundreds) has brought to my community and this country. America would not be America, and would stagnate, without its immigrants. And if we are a culture of decent people, we will open our arms to refugees.

South Africa is in, wait for it...Africa.<br /><br />Ever been?<br /><br />I know immigration policy. I am an immigrant. I have been through the whole system, and so has my husband. It is expensive and time consuming. We did it the right way, yes. JUST LIKE like the GREENCARD and VISA HOLDERS who are being denied entry, right now. They have not broken any laws. Said denial is not only unconstitutional but illegal. <br /><br />Refugees are not doing it the "wrong" way. They are refugees. That is an immigration status. They too, go through a rigorous, stressful process. Approved refugees are being denied entry based on their country of origin. <br /><br />Statistically, Americans are much more likely to die at the hands of an American with a gun than they are from foreign born terrorists. They are also more likely to die falling out of bed, than at the hands of a foreign born terrorist. That is quantifiable, meaning, logic would like it. <br /><br />Change of subject: I am sure there are illegal immigrants who are a drain on resources. I can only say that the illegal immigrants I have met and worked with here - who have neither the resources nor the know how to apply for legal immigration - are some of the hardest working people I have ever encountered, anywhere. And they are the backbone of many industries, including agriculture and hospitality. My life has been the richer for them, and so has yours. You just have not connected the dots, yet.<br /><br />Curious: where do you live and in what sector do you work?Mariehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13632520557553405790noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8603107829473043654.post-71670577571685493162017-02-03T17:04:20.794-05:002017-02-03T17:04:20.794-05:00No flames, simple logic.

Except the illegals and that is the point<br /><br />of the ban, period. You were blessed being born here or maybe you did what was required<br /><br />to come to the land of the free. That would require by law, immigration papers. What do you<br /><br />like to see, everybody welcome?<br /><br />When you go to Africa do you not need the proper requirements to visit? Maybe you<br /><br />just sneak in and find your niche somewhere and keep a low profile, 6*^% wages,slave<br /><br />to your owner. Not too many immigrating to Africa huh?<br /><br />Logic and common sense would dictate to me but....... <br /><br />By the way, any idea why we need immigration at this period in time?<br /><br />Just to be clear look up US immigration policy, K?<br /><br />Love your posts,site and YOU, keep it up.Sketchy 1https://www.blogger.com/profile/13906484679110832922noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8603107829473043654.post-16656811445332653412017-02-03T14:44:39.359-05:002017-02-03T14:44:39.359-05:00So many things you said very well here.
