This Reminds me of Something from Last Fall...

The hysteria over Ebola.

Same people. Same M.O.

Different "topic de jour".

My husband and I were discussing that this morning.

I understand having the initial reaction of fear but not remaining fearful as more information comes out.

Do you remember after 9/11 some people sealed their houses so completely they ended up in hospital?

Still waiting for the cries to stop immigration from France or Belgium, which is where the terrorists were born. What Syrian refugees have to do with what French citizens did to their own city is beyond me.

But then again, during Ebola, there were many who wanted the borders closed, but thought it a-ok to allow Texans to move freelya bout the country- when Texas was the state with the outbreak. Go figure.

You have sacrificed nothing and no one.

And it doesn't help matters when certain representatives of cities don't know their US history.

Or maybe we should BOMB Beligium...since that is where they are from!

Maudelynn - you're just too logical!!!!

Yes! And thanks. The feeling is mutual.

What happened to the cruise ship St Louis should be more than enough reason for US citizens to stand firm in support of those seeking refugee status.

My BFF & I were talking about this at dinner tonight!

We also compared it to Hurricane Katrina.

At that time, all the surrounding states were accepting bus loads of displaced New Orleans residents.

Here in Dallas, everyone had their knickers in a twist & were clutching their pearls saying the streets were going to be riddled with crime, r*pe & shootings if we allowed them in....basically the whole city would be hell in a hand basket. 10 yrs later, hardly a blip on the radar.
