“You would not want to compromise your or your family’s safety”
I dont want to compromise anyones safty. This whole discussion is contingent on the refugees undergoing a vigorous vetting process.

“and we don’t trust the government agencies’ claims that it is not a major security concern.”
allthouh DY made that above stament, I assume you agree. didnt you say on the Iran deal thread that I cant argue with “those in the know” If they say its safe who are you to argue?
As for my guest bedroom. a) There are shelters available (and we have them and fund them for a reason) so your question is silly. b) hypotheticly, if there were none if he underwent a fraction of the vetting process they have to undergo, I’d consider taking him.

I cant help but notice that as per your MO you STILL havent answered my question regarding children
bottom line I agree if there is a safety concern they shouldnt be allowed (I never said otherwise).
I am saying two things
1) Our attitude should be one of trying to help “getting to yes”, comng up with a way to make the vetting process safer. If it still isnt rigorous enough, then make it stricter. Still not safe? Make it stricter etc etc Saying there is no way case closed is unacceptable.
2) We should have an atttude of compassion and feel bad for those we cant help, whether after the above the vetting process is still not enough or the reailty that we cant take all. And realize that we were in the same boat as the (mostly innocent)refugees. ALL the excuses you and others are making where made then. Granted perhaps your excuses carry a little more weight than theirs. But they had all your moshols or your risks just directed against us.
