    Report: Adult Refugees Enrolled In Canadian High School, Harassing Young Girls:

    Emails between school officials at one Canadian high school reveal the school has been struggling to integrate into the school adult Syrian refugees, who reportedly are bullying and threatening students and teachers, as well as making advances on young teenage girls.

    One email said that 19 and 20-year-old Syrian migrants were aggressively confronting teachers, “particularly when it comes to the girls in the class, and also bullying the others in the class.”

    Another email reported that students were offended that the refugees were using sexually explicit language in front of their female classmates.

    Monday’s report also included one teacher expressing concern about the refugees’ repeated bullying of a Jewish student

    This can't be accurate. Everyone knows that refugees are just 'Dreamers' who follow the 'religion of peace'.

    Certainly not. So Hillary wants to increase Pres. Obama's number of Syrian dreamers to 65,000 annually.

    This is a stupid article. We've got 19 and 20 year old Americans in high schools doing the very same thing. Why on earth is this news other than for the sake of an obviously bigoted reporter who doesn't like the idea of Syrian refugees coming into the United States?Oh the boldness with which the radical right now brandishes its bigotry.[​IMG]

    Zaac, you did read the linked article didn't you? The high school referred to is Fredericton High School in New Brunswick, Canada. So, don't blame this on Americans.

    Of course I read the article. I didn't blame anything on the Americans. I simply stated that we have Americans that same age doing the same thing in American schools to show that this is just another radical right hit piece against Syrian refugees because they don't want them in the US.

    That's why the story is stupid.

    Like most of the stuff Sean Hannity puts out, this serves to keep a certain demographic incensed about nothing. The stuff expressed in this stupid story says no more about Syrian refugees than it does about Americans, or French, or Italians in their respective high schools doing the same things.

    Sure we already have problems in western countries with bad behavior. How does it help our societies to bring in thousands (or in the case of Germany, millions) of violent uneducated and aggressive migrants. As you say, we already have our own problems without adding to them.

    Your OP didn't say anything about helping our societies. You posted the story because you want folks to feel justified about not wanting Syrian refugees in the US.:Rolleyes I know it and you certainly know it.

    This post has no purpose other than to illicit emotional responses from people on this board. It is not meant to add to the discussion, it has no value, it fails to further any ideas. Again, its sole purpose is to provoke others. This is the same reason I believe you post here at all.

    Well then what does your comment add? You in effect ask what's wrong with bringing in thousands of yahoos who don't share our values, bully kids and teachers in school, since after all, we have bad folks here too.

    One criteria for our government's actions should be: is it good for our country and citizens? Or maybe it's more important to show what proper values govt officials have?
