Snyder Cannot Name One Problem With The Vetting Process For Refugees.

Inskeep followed up to ask if similar precautions should be taken to review how tourists enter the country. He noted that people from Western Europe don’t even need to apply for a Visa to enter the country.
“Well I wouldn’t necessarily [limit the entry of tourists]” Snyder said. “This is a particular case, this refugee process, where there is a high degree of concern.”
That concern, as more than one immigration expert told ThinkProgress this week, is largely misplaced. None of the attackers, at least in Paris, were refugees. Conversely, most of them were citizens of countries in Western Europe and could have entered the U.S. very quickly without any sort of vetting process.

It is disturbing that citizens from Western Europe, can get into the US without a Visa. Most of the Paris attackers were Western Europeans. Then to refuse water, food and sanctuary to Syrian children just adds to the moral degrade of Americans.
