To: Mike Huckabee, GOP Presidential Candidate
Apologize to Syrian Refugees, Mike Huckabee!
GOP candidate needs to publicly apologize for comments made about Syrian refugees, in which he stated that many probably wanted cable TV.
Why is this important?
Mike Huckabee made light of the Syrian Refugee Crisis at a conference in St. Louis, where he said, “Are they really escaping tyranny, are they escaping poverty, or are they really just coming because we’ve got cable TV? I don't mean to be trite."
His comments are offensive and do not accurately represent the extreme violence that the Syrian refugees are fleeing and the struggle they face trying to leave Syria and find safety. As the world takes in and cares for refugees, this GOP candidate's comments are deplorable and he should apologize for being so out of touch and cruel.
APOLOGIZE, MIKE HUCKABEE!
