We encounter Jesus in those who are poor, rejected, or refugees. Do not let fear get in the way of welcoming our neighbour in need. #WithRefugees @M_RSection

Migrants could be anyone. I think you specifically mean those from Africa and the Middle East. Funny though because the GOP loves referencing Germany but they just reached the lowest crime rates in 30 years
-
What about Sweden, with basically the laxest policy on migration in Nothern Europe? There are entire swaths of areas where you just can't go. Also, while crime overall may have dropped (policing in Germany is very adequate), there have been massive sexual assault problems (NYE?)
-
Swaths of area where you can’t go... have you been reading too much of Breitbart’s no go zone propaganda?
-
Nope, just the New York Times:https://www.nytimes.com/2018/03/03/world/europe/sweden-crime-immigration-hand-grenades.html …

Media will naturally report the worst events to get headline. It's more nuanced than that.https://www.snopes.com/fact-check/crime-sweden-part-ii-refugee-men-overrepresented-swedish-crime/ …
-
Ahhh Snopes. So precious. This article doesn't deny violence is erupting, just that they can't prove the nationalities of those arrested. Because, as the article states, it's illegal in Sweden to report on nationality of criminals. I WONDER WHY??
-
No, it's not illegal. Or which made-law do you refer to?

They were not called refugees, they're called immigrants

Pilgrims were a religious group seeking refuge from persecution by the British church. Same with the Quakers. Later, the Irish and the Germans that helped push the people to the west were escaping famines, and sought freedom from religious and political persecution as well.

it was smallpox that did the killing, villages lost 90%+ of their population; otherwise european ppl would have never gained a foothold.

Smallpox didn’t come from nobody.

You seriously believe that? I will pray for you!

I'm a Christian, I can pray for myself. You don't? You should pray for yourself

All I’m saying is that if you really think that our Thanksgiving is about killing, you are wrong.

How right you are... historically certain groups of people have a habit of stealing land & claiming as their own, and behaving viciously towards the original occupants, if you will.

Exactly! They celebrate the murder of the real natives of America every year
