A president who can't bring himself to say Islamic terrorist. For one Saudi Arabia won't take the refugees. and the majority aren't refugees. They are single men adults. And Obama wants more. He is doing nothing for the Christain refugees.
I would say remain vigilant and keep a watch in your suroundings.

We can start passing out ammunition to our patriotic brothers and sisters so they can defend their families instead of trying to disarm them

I'd rather not get into an argument about the 2nd Amendment, but that is implausible and impractical, and no one is trying to disarm anyone.

The honest truth is we can't - porous boarders, small compartmentalized units and low tech communications make this hard to detect.

PVT Robert Gresham - Sergeant; Are you actually suggesting that there are no places in the United States of America where I might want to be even slightly hesitant about going to alone and at night?
Are you advocating a repetition of the MS St. LOUIS incident?

COL Ted Mc - Sir, there are places in the US that most people are afraid to go to. If you see THAT as my point then I would suggest that we have a serious disconnect. However, if you want to know the possible future of the US, you really need to take one of those vacations.
As for the ridiculous suggestion that the refugees being flown in here in 8 hours, mostly men coming from Syria (i.e. prime candidates for ISIS, or at a minimum radical Islamist believers), are the same as Jews who spent weeks on the St Louis to get to Cuba, during the worst time for Jews in German history, that also is comparing apples to oranges. Sir, your arguments are usually much stronger than this.
My ONLY suggestion, in response to the young Sargeant's question, is that we close our borders to such refugees until such time as these people can be vetted in some way. No papers, or no papers before entering Europe, then no entry into the United States until we have had ample time to consider the decision. To do otherwise is to possibly set into motion a chain-of-events that will lead to increased terrorist activity, and eventually war on American soil. Are our "values" maybe set a bit to high, when it come to refugees, especially when they are balanced against American lives?

PVT Robert Gresham - Sergeant; If the suggestion was to only admit single males inside the demographics of ISIS, I'd definitely agree with you. If the suggestion is to admit women, children, and the elderly, I won't.
If the suggestion was to simply dump the refugees into the general population of America with no follow up, I'd definitely agree with you. If the suggestion is to house the refugees in a controlled environment that was better than the horrendous conditions they are currently living in until a FULL check could be run on them, I won't.
If the US government can "relocate" 1,000,000 people (it did after Hurricane Katrina) then it can certainly use the experience it gained from that disaster to deal with 20,000 refugees (or more).
