How easy is it to get to America as a refugee? Many politicians, particularly governors of now 26 states, make it out to be a simple process — so simple that would-be terrorists could use the system to sneak in. But the journey is very extensive, involving many background checks from both UN and US agencies.

To demonstrate just how long the process is, Bosnian American Association of Iowa executive director Buljušmić-Kustura Arnesa, a refugee, tweeted out her own family's journey. It's a long read, which should tell you a lot about how the system works.

Pfffft, you think they'll be around when he does that? They'll be long gone, moving freely by themselves in the shadows.

"You're an immigrant too, you come from European immigrants! You have no right to speak."

"You're not an immigrant, you don't know their experiences. You have no right to speak."

The topsy-turvy world of being white. Where reality and consistency are lower priority than you being made to shut up.

Sooo all places that are dictated by the types of circles you travel in and the type of friends you keep? maybe you haven't come across it for the same reason I haven't come across any fashion tip posts because I don't have that kind of thing on my feeds or sub to any twitter accounts that post about it.
