    When people tell refugees to "go back to your own home" do they not realize these people do not have homes to go back to? They did not flee their country by choice. It is a life or death gamble everyday they stay in these war stricken cities. -Kendi K. #DividedStates

        They genuinely don't care. It's hard for some of us to wrap our heads around, but we need to realize that there are A LOT of ppl in this country who truly DO NOT CARE about anyone but themselves and their immediate family members. Their thinking is "to hell with everyone else."

        Yup. And one good way to keep people in their homes is to stop the war machine and destruction of countries for profit.

        The people who tell refugees to go home are not Native Americans and therefore also moved to this country. Maybe they should “go home” first. Be the change you want to see, right? Or is someone’s home where they feel safe and not necessarily where they were born?

        I fear that the Privileged people of the US may soon have to eat their words. I hope that it does not come to it but our history says that it may. Civil War may destroy our home and I pray that the people of the world won't judge all of us by some of U,S,

        I encourage people to look at http://www.humansofnewyork.com/  He is doing a series about the refugees of Myanmar. If people can read that and tell them to go home they are beyond redemption.

        There is a huge difference between an economic migrant and someone who is fleeing a war zone. What a pity that you cannot understand this. Also, why flee to countries thousands of miles away if there are other safe countries closer to home?
