REFUGEES

persecution based on their Ethnicity and religious beliefs.
Why don’t refugees return Home? Their country is still
questionable. They have no home to return
to.

They have no home there anymore.
Their countries aren’t secure enough to guarantee them safety.
They have no way to provide for them or their families

What Could be Done?
If government ever really wants to get rid of terrorism, they could. All it would take is:
Remove any "law" that makes self defense punishable on the ground or in the air!
Remove "laws" regulating ownership and carrying of weapons
Stop meddling with other countries and stop molesting and killing people in other lands.
Abide by the very clear language and intent of the entire Bill of Rights.

What could we do?Contact your state
representatives in congress and urge them to give more aid.
Donate to the many charity programs that are dedicated to helping refugees
