Some U.S states are not allowing Syrian Refugees in. There are several reason why I think those states should reverse their decision.
A lot of areas here in the United States are barren; uninhabited. The Syrian refugees could utilize that unused space. Moreover, the unemployment rate will also drop because the refugees could do the jobs that we don’t want to do. In that way, they will have a source of income and won’t be that of a burden on the U.S economy. Also, I think that America should also demonstrate moral courage, which many people think is the right thing to do. We must deal with threats without rejecting our ethical obligations.

ISIS has announced that it will be using the refugee crisis as a way to smuggle militants into the United States (Jack Crone). Letting in potential terrorists into the United States, and into our homes, is a foolish decision entirely (Ben). Some may argue that “not all Muslims are bad” or that “not all of the refugees are apart of ISIS”. Of course they’re right. The refugees are like grapes. If I gave you ten grapes, and told you one of them was poisoned, would you eat any of them? Some people argue that fearing one religious group because of the acts of a few radicals is wrong. A syrian passport was found near one of the assailants in the Paris attacks. It’s safe to assume that one of the terrorists involved in the Paris attacks entered Europe as part of the wave of Syrians fleeing civil
