Why Washington State Won’t Close Its Doors to Syrian Refugees

Governor Jay Inslee explains why he will welcome refugees to Washington State, and concludes with this:

I don’t deny or condemn the fear that has swelled since the Paris attacks. But fear can be overcome. We can take a deep breath, stand up straight and make a realistic assessment of risk. And we can’t forget the times we have been tested, both when we’ve failed and when we’ve succeeded.

BTW: The Governors claiming they won’t let those scary Muslims in don’t have the authority to make that decision – but can act so their lives stay miserable.
