I'm not going to judge people who may have changed their minds on the issue as things are different today than they were in September.
Wanting to help refugees after seeing drowned kids on the beach and the disgusting conditions of the camps etc....makes the emotional side of people feel like helping no matter what.
When it is revealed that there is a real possibility that danger exists in that decision, they will sometimes change their minds particularly after seeing it play out in the carnage we saw in Paris yesterday.
Not sure where the problem lies....things change all the time, even in regards to policy of governments. that's a good thing when there are fluid situations and different information is presented...no?
