Perhaps you will believe your own link: http://www.wnd.com/2014/09/u-n-to-dump-flood-of-muslim-refugees-on-u-s/

UN to dump flood of Muslim refugees on US.

Believe whatever you wish about refugees, but it won't in any way whatsoever change the facts. Millions of people were displaced during WWI and WWII and hundreds of thousands came to the US. There were strict immigration laws implemented in the early 1920s that stopped the unlimited European immigration to the US, so the displaced persons and refugees of WWI were handled as regular immigrants with limited numbers from each country. During WWII, the US turned away Jewish refugees because of these strict quotas, and they were forced to return to Nazi Germany. In 1944, in signing Executive Order 9417, FDR established the War Refugee Board to help rescue refugees and also directed that Fort Ontario, New York, become a free port for refugees. The WRB was able by the end of the war in 1945 to aid the rescue of about 200,000 Jews in Hungary, Romania, and elsewhere in Europe along with other refugees.

"In 1945 President Harry S. Truman signed an executive order [the Truman Directive] that gave displaced persons, or refugees, priority over other immigrants. Congress passed the War Brides Act, 59 Stat. 659, in 1945 and the Displaced Persons Act, 62 Stat. 1009, in 1948 to make the United States more responsive to international immigration and refugee situations. The War Brides Act permitted the immigration of 120,000 alien wives and children of U.S. soldiers. The Displaced Persons Act allowed for more than the previously established quotas of refugees from Poland, Germany, Latvia, Russia, and Yugoslavia to be admitted." (see link)

The Displaced Persons Act brought approximately 400,000 refugees to the US, of which 80,000 were Jews. Like I said, notwithstanding your believing it or not, the US taking in refugees is nothing new. Your statements about "our country" and "our shores" are interesting. Being of Native American and British descent, I have a particularly different perspective of "our country" and its "systematically being taken over" and the "hoardes that come here" than most. I am guessing that you probably are unaware that there are actually a sizeable number of people that consider Christians part of the hoardes that you speak of. I wonder if you have any idea whatsoever of the millions of people that have been murdered in the name of Christianity? Study Pope Urbanus II and his call for Christian holy war.

You said: "You just duck your head in the sand until someone comes to kill you because you are an infidel. If you do not believe as Muslims, then you are dead."

Believe what you want to believe; believe you need to live your entire life in fear of something you appear to know little about. My head is nowhere near the sand, as I choose NOT to live as an extremist or an isolationist. Like the majority of Americans, I do not believe that one has to become an extremist in order to fight extremism. Perhaps my Native American ancestors should have feared the so-called Christians they welcomed, and perhaps on the flip side my British ancestors shouldn't be so proud of perfecting guns that were responsible for the deaths of millions, but as for myself, if my not having extremist beliefs against my neighbor means I will be killed by them, then I guess I will take my chances, as I am a believer of practicing God's greatest commandments, and I am certainly not as defeated as you already seem to be.

Living in tornado alley, I do have a storm shelter to protect myself from the very real effects of climate change, but otherwise I absolutely refuse to live my life in fear of other people. Got to go now; it's party time at my house with a last day of summer pool party from now until midnight.  Happy fall everybody.
