    When someone wishes to go to Australia, to flee persecution, they apply for protection with the Australian government. While they’re being processed for whether or not they are eligible to have asylum in Australia, they are kept in large camps called detention centres, and are called Asylum seekers. However, these detention centres are cruel and inhumane in their treatment of asylum seekers, and should absolutely not be used to hold anyone.

    America has always let in people from all around the world and we shouldn’t allow terrorist to scare us because that is what they want. I have seen that so far none of the refugees have done anything to the U.S. This shows that there is no big reason to not let them in and show we should be obligated to help them. America should always help those in need and be brave to help other when people are afraid to help them.…

    I believe Syrian refugees should be allowed into the United States with contingencies and proper screening. Syrian refugees are trying to escape Syria, which has had many wars and terrorist problems. More than 250,000 Syrians have lost their lives over 4 and a half years of armed conflict from an anti-government protest to a full scale civil war. Some Syrian refugees have begun fighting back against terrorism and the government of Syrian president Bashar al-Assad who considers Syrian rebels as terrorist such as ISIS. We are discriminating against them because other Syrians have chosen the path of terrorism and to hurt their own people.…
