Being critical of Immigration does not make you racist.

That's why we go with per capita, as you wouldn't expect a "3rd world" country like Lebanon with a population of only 6.8mil to take in the same amount as say America or Canada, who are vast and wealthy. Or maybe you would, dunno.

Most of their refugees are due to proximity more than some charitable aspect of said country. Frankly I don't care about the per capita aspect with 330 million folks we could absorb some middle eastern countries and it still wouldn't be significant on a per capita basis when Lebanon has 6.8 million total.

Still the USA takes in more immigrants than any other country in the world bar none and that's not even counting our illegal immigrants coming in, hell we probably have more illegal immigrants coming in yearly than some countries take in legal immigrants lulz.

That's probably true, and will surely trigger some people on here.

Can you quantify that claim? I don't pretend to know the goodwill or not good will of the Lebanese people or their government. I've only been to the border once.

Which doesn't counter the original point that some other countries do their part as well. But the US should be taking in the most, we're the richest country, one of the biggest, we have the most influence on the world stage and frankly, we're a country that was founded on immigration. This will trigger Rightist here.

I don't care if we take in a million immigrants a year, good for them.

The richest country with lower standards of living.

Something doesn't add up.

Agreed there. eg our healthcare is a complete joke.

Leftists love saying how Canada and the U.S. needs to accept more refugees and immigrants.

Funny how Middle Eastern countries or Asian countries don't.

I wonder why...

Uh-huh

Top 10 countries receive the most refugees per population ratio

1) Lebanon
2) Jordan
3) Nauru
4) Turkey
5) Liberia
6) Uganda
7) Malta
8) Sudan
9) Sweden
10) South Sudan

As you see, yet again, your Far-Right talking point which you've gleaned from OAN, Fox and which Far-Right youtube jabber is still bullshit.

Did you just equate Immigrants and Refugees to be the same exact thing?

No, I didn't, I used separate language when discussing refugees vs immigrants.

In addition to accepting refugees for resettlement, the United States also grants humanitarian protection to asylum seekers who present themselves at U.S. ports of entry or claim asylum from within the country. In FY 2019 (the most recent data available), the United States granted asylum status to about 46,500 individuals, the highest level in decades, due in part to increased asylum applications and the accelerating pace of adjudications.

Also Globally just interesting to note:

Partly because refugee resettlement has been disrupted amid the pandemic, the need for humanitarian protection is as high as ever. Global displacement was estimated to have reached a record high 80 million people by mid-2020, according to the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR). Of these, approximately 26.3 million individuals were formally designated as refugees, 45.7 million were internally displaced persons (IDPs), 4.2 million were asylum seekers, and 3.6 million were Venezuelans displaced abroad. UNHCR has projected that more than 1.4 million refugees are in need of durable resettlement beyond their countries of first asylum.

Or present them in a similar vein of thought if you want to go that route?

We don’t want Apu smoking weed and running Kiki-e-mart with dirty meat and weird religion and disease and huge families.

No, I’m not racist, I’m talking about immigration, nick griffin told me that at a kkk rally in Mississippi and he only got in trouble for supporting nazis. ermm

Seriously, not racist.

I simply addressed and added to Rob's refugee post from the website he posted and then I discussed immigration, relax man.

The USA's total refugee numbers aren't that good and they are spread out of a few decades.

Our legal immigration system though while it maybe slow still allows over 1 million folks in a year and that's pretty ok.

Okay so then why do you need to compare the number of refugees taken in by countries to the number immigrants that enter the U.S. if you understand they are different?

Ever been to India? Or know any Indians?

Trust me, no one wants America to turn into India. That's why Indians are coming here, to get away from India.
