Call me crazy but I'd endure several years of a poor economy and cozing up to Putin over flooding Texas with a diametrically opposed, violent culture with no desire to assimilate and accepting terrorist attacks as the new norm.
France (249k sq miles) is a little smaller than Texas (269k sq miles). What would happen to Texas if we allowed 100's of thousands of Syrian refugees to annually flood our cities?
How acceptable would it be for gang rapes, acid attacks, mass shootings, and bombs going off around us in our Texas cities?
When these things happen in NYC, San Bernadino, Orlando, etc. we are all somewhat detached and life moves on quickly.
But when terror attacks become the norm in France, to Texans that would be like these atrocities becoming part of daily life in Austin, Dallas, Houston, etc.
Imagine if a candidate for Gov told us terror attacks are just a part of our daily lives in Texas now so we must accept it as part of being good Samaritans.
Missteps in economics and military alliances can be corrected, history has proven this repeatedly around the globe.
Once allowing in droves of people who want your demise, there is no reversal without violent conflict and forced removal. Welfare and high reproduction will guarantee that.
Aside from abandoning security, welfare plus open borders is a suicidal economic plan.
