So we should just let their families die right? It's not even a few, it's hundreds of thousands of innocent lives - and how many American lives have been lost due to the refugees?
America didn't directly cause the conflict but western countries definitely made it much worse, they have a duty to help the people that are suffering because of it.

Like I said, that's not the logic that most people would use. Yes, it would save many more lives than it could potentially cost, but Americans (and people everywhere) are selfish, and rightfully so. It's not always a good thing, but people think about themselves and their families first.
There's also a bigger social issue involved in all this. That's why it's very important to thoroughly vet any refugees we do let in. Many people in America are biased towards Muslims and their religion, and it's sad. That's also why America needs to try their hardest to not allow more terrorists in the country.
