OK let's take at least one of those "newsworthy facts"
Over the last four decades, 20 out of 3.25 million refugees welcomed to the United States have been convicted of attempting or committing terrorism on U.S. soil
How many of those 20 have been convicted in the last 10 years?
How many in the last 5 years?
9/11 only happened 16 yrs ago and since only then has the terrorist threat risen from the middle east so why go back 40 yrs unless you wish to use statistics as part of your agenda?
