GOP Committeewoman from Iowa warns that undocumented children crossing our borders might be "highly trained warriors" who will "rise up against Americans." Whoa Nelly!

Courtesy of Right Wing Watch:  

On her weekly radio show yesterday, RNC committeewoman Tamara Scott of Iowa warned that child migrants from Central America may have been “highly trained as warriors” and could “rise up against” U.S. citizens. 

“When we see these kids, you and I think young kids, we think maybe 12-year-olds, maybe homeschoolers — excuse me, middle-schoolers,” said Scott, who is also Concerned Women for American’s Iowa state director and works as a lobbyist for the conservative group The Family Leader. “But we know back in our revolution, we had 12-year-olds fighting in our revolution. And for many of these kids, depending on where they’re coming from, they could be coming from other countries and be highly trained as warriors who will meet up with their group here and actually rise up against us as Americans.”

Okay that is where the Right Wing Watch stopped transcribing,  but the next thing this lunatic said was "We have no idea what's coming through out borders, but I would say Biblically it's not a Christian nation when you entice people to do wrong."

WTF?

Is it not "Christian" to offer a safe harbor to those fleeing oppression?

Is it not "Christian" to want to protect children?

Or do I simply not understand the idea behind Christianity?
