The bigger point is that in this situation you're acting like a xenophobe. You're basing your opinion on irrational fears. Quit being afraid of syrian refugees. Not accepting them will do absolutely nothing but create more contempt towards America and probably drive more people towards ISIS, it sure to hell isn't going to thwart an attack. And I could argue that by turning away Syrian refugees, we would be more of a target. But for some odd reason, people would be ok with this concept, as if it's ok to be attacked if we were pro-active in turning away refugees and one just happened to plant a bomb here, but if we accept them and get attacked, that's completely unacceptable.
I know you understand this but living in a society as free as ours opens us up to terrorist attacks. These attacks come from all kinds such as 9/11 to school shootings. They carried out by middle eastern men, by white men of all ages. We have mass murderers. It's a risk we accept living in America, one that cannot be negated without taking away what makes America great
