This sounds like the exact same charity we work with but for confidentiality reasons we will not say there name, but I assume that this is a Christian organization that helps refugees? 

So the next time somebody bitches about taking care of our veterans before refugees, or there not being enough money in the school budget for pencils or being unable to have money to fix our crumbling infrastructure, keep our parks open, fund some worthy program or another, ask them if they paid all the tax they were supposed to last year

Last week we leased 10-units, at a 20% discount from scheduled rent, to house refugees which are arriving in our community at 3-5 families per day.  

Now there are some parts of the law I don't agree with like an 18 year that has a 17 year old girlfriend and they have sex.The parents get mad and file charges against the 18 year old.Back in 2005, we "took in" a Katrina refugee.

The best analogy I use is Im the "cuban refugee" that will jump on a life raft and float 90 miles in shark infested waters and storms to get to the coast of florida all because I want a better life, this person is willing to risk everything to get to a life that they have never even personally exprerienced.

I remember patrolling the street of Jebaliah (A Palestinian refugee camp) knocking on doors at 2am getting all the men out to the yard in their underwear while having their wives and children watching.

Memphis did get hit hard in this list but they took in a ton of the Katrina refugees who were not mobile enough to get out so you have an artificial pumping in of a lot of social welfare liabilities and miserable people.I'm happy to say that I moved out of a top 10 miserable area into one that doesn't even approach that list.

Tom, There have been many instances when they've deliberately targeted civilians--UN ambulances, a refugee camps, etc.

People are living for a while and we have numerous immigrants and refugees that have moved to the US.

Some look like refugee camps, some look like ghost houses and none have any charm in it.
