Really? Are they more deserving of refugee status than the Rohyngia Muslims who didn't just lose their lands to the government, but who watched their families be raped and murdered? Are they more deserving of refugee status than the Syrian civilians - particularly the women and children - caught in the middle of a civil war which we helped create? Are they more deserving of refugee status than the African Jews that Israel is expelling from their nation since the right-wing government doesn't want to accept them as having Jewish ancestry?
I'm not trying to beat up on you - it's not wrong to feel empathy for the white farmers who are being expelled from their farms (but not from their nation). I'm only pointing out that there are far more refugees who are facing much worse injustice.
Oh, and one more thing - ALL refugees present a burden to taxpayers in the beginning...every single one. Very, very few of them come here with money in pocket...and if you'll think about it, if a refugee has a lot of money on hand, then how, exactly is that person a refugee at all? In any case, if you've any real experience with immigrants, you would know that regardless of their race/color/creed or national origin, most of them work harder than most native-born Americans, and they are less likely to commit crime than native-born American citizens...and the latter is backed up by studies by the conservative Cato Institute IIRC. Perhaps you already know all that and accept it. I hope you do.
They have common values, language and work ethic with large swaths of America. They should be the ones we are allow to immigrate to the west.
These are true refugees, and should be allowed to front of the queue. These people will assimilate into the farming society and never be a burden to taxpayers…
South Africa has an affirmative action program, in place to protect the majority ! What ?????
"South Africa is the only country in the world where affirmative action is in the favour of the majority who has complete political control.
The fact that the political majority requires affirmative action to protect them against a 9% minority group is testament to a complete
failure on their part to build their own wealth.'
South Africa farm murders: Jacob Zuma calls for white land to be confiscated
“The farmers live in fear, because being a farmer in South Africa is the most dangerous occupation in the world,” Henk van de Graaf,
spokesman for the TAU, told Swedish newspaper Nya Tider last year.
“The average murder ratio per 100,000 or the population in the world is nine, I believe. In South Africa, it is 54. But for the
farming community it is 138, which is the highest for any occupation in the world.”
The rise in farm attacks has been blamed on increasingly anti-white hate speech, particularly from the ruling African National Congress.
