Patriotism is the only thing that's kept me here so long, despite what Emily Thornberry thinks of it.

Selfish? I'll take that. I'm choosing to put the future of my children ahead of those who couldn't care less about them in any respect.

Well if they are you're probably getting a greater amount of other selfish, unpatriotic people to replace them so idk if it's a net gain from your pov.

I doubt that's the case; people who want to live in a country are usually more patriotic than those who don't want to live in it, in my experience.

Depends on why they are there. Refugees tend to care about the country they came from more and the one they landed in they view as a temporary shelter.

Sounds like you’re actually proving the parents point…
