Deviating from the cautious course being pursued by at least 27 state governors, California Governor Jerry Brown vowed to work closely with President Obama in resettling Syrian refugees entering the United States, reassuring Californians that the incoming asylum-seekers would be “fully vetted in a sophisticated and utterly reliable way.” This means that many of the 10,000 Syrians the Obama administration is planning to bring into the country within the next year may be settled throughout the Sunshine State.
Brown’s promise to cooperate with the Obama administration is interesting considering his past positions and remarks on a similar issue. During the 1970’s, when thousands of Vietnamese fled the communists taking over their country, Brown, then an up-and-coming liberal politician, expressed little sympathy towards them, reportedly stating that the federal government was going to “dump Vietnamese” onto the people of California.
An interesting choice of words on his part. One wonders how he and other liberals would react if someone said he was going to “dump Syrians” on California.
See how others reacted to Brown’s announcement on the next page:
If we have no choice but to accept refugee then put them all in California since they love illegals and ISIS.
Let them move into your home Jerry.
just another stupid fool,using the tax payers money
oh so is that new he is stupid
Eric High, that’s exactly what my husband and I are going to do in 2 years when we retire. We’re both born and raised right here in CA. There was a time when I couldn’t imagine living anywhere else. Now, we can’t get out of here fast enough. We’re moving to a red state.
Another sheep in the herd got castorated payed for by Obama.
California has so may criminals in it now the refugees wouldnt make any difference their
Freaken crook! Just like every other democrat.
Let us look back in History. Ellis and Angel island started screening immigrants in 1890 thru 1965. “After 1924, the only people who were detained at Ellis Island were those who had problems with their paperwork, as well as war refugees and displaced persons. Ellis Island still remained open for many years and served a multitude of purposes. During World War II, enemy merchant seamen were detained in the baggage and dormitory building.” In History we ended up with the Italy, Russian, and Tong Mafia in america, which all broke the laws and thousand of people were killed. Yes we did put Japan citizens after Pearl Harbor attack to make sure no one was helping Japan. If the US Government had vented those Japanese better then they would not have be put in camps. The government was only protecting the america people. Which is THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT PRIMARY JOB. Here is what happen by taking in Iraq and Afgan Refugees during the war after 9/11: “Kentucky, has a specific reason to be wary of the background check process: previously two Iraqi refugees who settled in Bowling Green turned out to be al Qaeda-linked terrorists with the blood of American soldiers on their hands, an ABC News investigation found. Both pleaded guilty to terror-connected charges after trying to acquire heavy weapons while in America’s heartland.
The 2013 ABC News investigation also revealed that several dozen other suspected terrorist bombmakers, including some who were believed to have targeted U.S. troops, may have mistakenly been allowed to move to the U.S. as Iraq and Afghanistan War refugees, among the tens of thousands of innocent immigrants.” http://www.libertyellisfoundation.org/ellis-island-history
