They will not be allowed, period!
This mayor must be mentally deranged and has a problem with mental clarity to understand the issue and background history. It has nothing to do with discrimination it has to do with Security. She convolutes issues and even brings in the KKK for what reason of illogic is that. Why does she not bring up the Knights Templer too who were defenders for the people against the muslim attacks in the past. Learn the real history to what this muslim cult is about and the wars and killing they have committed over the centuries. What about my human rights??? Where are they going to stay at Logan’s house?? What will their invasion produce??? Where will the money come from?? Why not tell them to sent tents up outside where they are coming from and work their own issues and problems out. They represent an IDEOLOGY of terror NOT a religion of PEACE. They don’t want Christians and other people in their countries.
The heck with the Council (they and all can be recalled, Mayor Carrie Logan is the only one leaving office, she can continue to ignore the wishes of the citizens), it should require a Special General Election of the registered voters.
Is this meeting open to the public, is anyone going, and are comments allowed? Is it too late for us?

It’s important to keep in mind that it’s not actually a Muslim issue, will at least the problem does not represent 80% of the Muslims, it does represent an economic class and one radical faction of Islam which are Wahhabist.
Other issues to consider are where will they be housed, where are the jobs for them?
The majority of Refugee’s are young men, something to consider. They act like mercenary soldiers with their raping, pillaging and plunder.
In any case it would not be fair to the refugee’s to bring them here because of the prejudice that has formed against them due to their behavior in Europe.
Europe has huge problems because of their actions. We shouldn’t make the same mistakes that will hang us forever!
