The United States as a whole has taken about 600 Syrian refugees per year since 2011. That number is so small, it may as well be zero. The fact of the matter is that we've effectively *never* taken Syrian refugees.

People are not 'flooding' in; People are not even trickling in. People are barely coming in at all.

Even if literally every single one of them were an insane murderer, it would hardly even register on our current murder rate.

This year, we accepted over 15k refugees from Myanmar, over 10k from Iraq, over 8k from Somalia,7k from Congo, 5k from Bhutan, and even about 3k from Iran. These numbers all dwarf the number of refugees we've accepted from Syria, and none of them have been terrorists, either.

In 1979-1980, we accepted over 300k (combined) refugees from Vietnam and Cuba -- roughly 150 refugees for every one Syrian refugees we've ever taken, and none of them caused issue, either.

In short, this whole talk about Syrian refugees in the US is hysteria. For multiple reasons, there is nothing to worry about.
