Anyway, I want these ISIS twats ground into the dirt, I hate what they are doing and I hate what they stand for, but I am worried about the potential repercussions for British citizens, from home grown Brits.
Sure, but how are we financing 20000 new refugees? I'd have been all over a government subsidized campaign where people who were vocal about the situation could offer accommodation to a refugee the same way you'd foster a child. But that's not what happened.
And realistically is Syria gonna be steady by 2020? These people are here to stay and they're not only gonna remain popular forever.

Yeah, don't get me wrong this has the potential to exacerbate xenophobia tenfold. But there's as much chance of reasoning with the Britain First cavalry as there is with ISIS
