I am not in total agreement with this. If the refugees are or have been in the process of becoming US Citizens then they should stay. If they came here and violated our laws then I do not have a problem with that. One thing I saw in the photo that rubs me the wrong way is the flying the flag of Vietnam. These refugees apparently do not want to assimilate and become citizens. When I lived in Panama, I did not break the laws of that country or fly the US Flag while there. Why disrespect the country you want to live in. When I was in Panama, it was my intention to stay there.
Any refugee or immigrant who does not want to assimilate and become a citizen should move back to their homeland, especially those who can not refrain from breaking our laws. Their is a contingent of immigrants who have openly said they hate America and Americans, so why stay here? The reason is obvious to me, they are living a better life and getting many benefits that in my opinion they are taking from our own. I am not going to mention by name, but should be obvious.

Do you get as worked up about these ungrateful Italian immigrants flying Italian flags over their businesss in NYC, and even having the total disrespect for the US by naming a part of NYC Little Italy? When are they ever going to assimilate? Oh, never mind. They're white and not as easy to tell apart from "real Americans", so we'll let them slide on that whole assimilation thing. ;)
