Some people say shameful things out of fear

America was founded by refugees and outcasts from other countries. All came together and a strong nation was built by people that others considered unworthy. As a people we have advanced but some have allowed shameful things to fall out of their mouths. These people with questionable compassion want Americans to treat Syrian refugees as our early American ancestors were. History unlearned is history repeated.

Governors of about 20 states say they will not accept the refugees in their state. The last link points out that Governors do not have the right to refuse these people access to their state.  My question is this this. Where does this nonsense stop?  Are short people going to be refused entrance to a state? What about people whose farts are smelly or burp too loud?

I read information from the following links and watched news feed before blogging.
