Until we have the capability to guarantee safety from those moving to the US AND until we take care of all the homeless citizens there are in the US, it seems ridiculous to move others here. We can't even financially support our own citizens. Why would we bring in more people??? How can we proclaim to house refugees when we cannot even house those already living here???

I don't want any refugees allowed into my state of MINNESOTA or my country U.S.A. I am a taxpayer and I shouldn't have pay for them. Most importantly DEPORT them before our state is under attack. The people will remember and blame you for allowing what is going to happen here!!! The FBI already admits they can't be properly screened or checked before coming here!!!! You know this!!! Send them back! Us the people will not accept this or rest!

Take care of our own first!! Just like the thousands of Somalians that were brought in and are being taken care of by the tax payers!!! Done with all of it! I didn't fight for this country to have to support lazy ass, uneducated, unmotivated people from other countries!!!

How about taking care of Minnesotans and our communities' safety instead of opening the door to potential hazards? Dayton cannot guarantee the refugees do not pose a threat if even the FBI cannot. Head out of ass governor. ....

Dear Governor Dayton,
It seems you have lost touch with reality,to make such a statement “Minnesota is not like it was 30, 50 years ago. But, this is Minnesota and you have every right to be here. And anybody who cannot accept your right to be here and this is Minnesota should find another state.” or this one: “Our economy cannot expand based on, white, B+, Minnesota-born citizens. We don’t have enough,” Dayton said.
Apparently, you have forgotten who pays for all you little programs, and entitlements, which you are so fond of.
Well, I would like to remind you, it is the hardworking, taxpaying (over taxed, in this state with you at the helm) . I hate to inform you, but "we The People" will be the ones out here footing the bill for your latest pet project " bring Syrian refugees to Mn" .
The interesting thing is, "We The People" recognize that we are the ones who will be put at risk for all the potential violence, disease, and chaos these migrants will bring with them. We will be the ones taxed once again, to the breaking point,while you sit in your mansion , enjoying all the frills our tax dollars afford you, calling us bigots. Perhaps you should be bringing them to live with you!
Of course, we know you and the elitists,the likes of President Obama wouldn't ever subject yourself to any unpleasantness. You leave that up to us lowly peasants.
You ought to be ashamed of yourself. But since you have been raised with that silver spoon in your mealy mouth, you wouldn't know how to have that much class.
No Syrian refugees to Minnesota. Remember, we still have the right to throw you out. It isn't "your state" !
Sincerely,
Rebecca Boll

Keep them in a FEMA camp until they learn the American way. They whine and complain that we don't give them enough, these people from what I've seen are rude and need a little humbling before being allowed into our society. I wonder how many are with Isis just waiting to attack....protect our own first

We need to think of the people of the USA before bring more refugees in. We have homeless vets that need housing first. Why are they forgotten

There is no way to find out if these people mean to harm us or not. Why even worry about it. Don't bring them here
