These are the type of refugees I don't mind taking in. They are a family, they are working to support themselves, and trying to assimilate into American Culture. They can sleep well at night knowing a bomb isn't going to explode or be drug from their beds. My heart melts when I see videos like this. Welcome to the United States. Your under our protection now.

People hating on these Syrian refugees dont know that some of these people lived better in Syria than how some people live in US, not all of them want to migrate. They had houses, businesses, a fantastic culture and all that now its all in dust and rubble. Most of these people have lost their family members to the war and the country is very unsafe to raise a family, dont have any political stability nor economic stability to start life again. So put yourself in their shoes a little bit and have a bit of sympathy before you judge them

With such huge families to support on so little it makes you wonder what kind of future they hold in America as well. Sure they escaped the war but now they're facing a different type of war called surviving with huge families on little income in America. It's a take care of your own family and business and not worry about others here.

@danfield6030 6 лет назад

shawn170204 ......stop paying taxes if you are againgst working together as a community... if your so againgst the idea of working together as a team .....pave your own roads !! stay of public property ! lol

@shawn170204 6 лет назад

Dan Field working together as a community doesn't mean we need to support other families financially when families are already struggling themselves. It's a help yourself situation first before looking for help from others that are trying to stay a float. I pay taxes yes so I guess I'm already doing my part and that's about all they would get from me when it comes too working together as a community. P.S ~ I have as many children that I know I don't need to rely on others for help or donations even if I was to lose a job. How about you? Can you say the same? Most people can't. I was raised in a family knowing that if you can't look after your own don't have any kids. My parents were extremely strict about teaching my siblings and I about $ and what it takes to raise kids and support a family. It's sad that so many have to rely on others.

@kansasthunderman1 6 лет назад

These "refugees" are actually "importees" brought to the U.S. by the State Department at a cost of about $8000/person. They are also getting big $$$ in welfare payments, frees housing, and affirmative action for job placement.

My question why Iowa out of all the states Iowa?

@carolyndobry785 3 года назад

Because Small Midwestern states want to die versify their population and make it less white so it’s faster to immigrate to those states. When I lived in Fargo as a child over the border in Minnesota there were a ton of refugees from Somalia and from Vietnam. In fact the Vietnamese lady who would cut my hair told us that her family was told that they could go to California in five years are coming to Minnesota right away.

@carolyndobry785 3 года назад

I should clarify that diversity in population is not about what you think. It’s good for Iowa because the white population is getting older and having less children. You need youth to survive. You either get that from your own population or you use Immigration. More then half those parents will Encourage higher education and build loyalty to the state that took them in. Keeping Iowa an productive and stable state.

They deserve to live in peace! God grant them peace here in the United States! They can be free and be protected from harm living here. We just need to see they need us too❤️ God Bless Everyone!

Hala is too cute, God bless. My heart sank when they were mocking her teeth. She and her people were bombed by the Assad government and foreigners at home in Syria and when coming to the US, their struggles dont end there, they have to face the hardship of bullying here too. It's not her fault her teeth are like that. It's not easy to get your hands on nutrients like calcium when your market place is bombed by a dictator every other day.
