Minnesota Governor Tells Residents To Leave The State If They Dont Like The Massive Influx Of Muslim Refugees Minnesota Gov. Mark Dayton caused outraged when he told residents that he does not have a problem with Syrian refugees being placed in his state. According to Dayton, hes been assured by the White House that refugees will have gone through high-level security checks. Its no surprise that residents would object to the idea, given that these security procedures have repeatedly failed throughout the world. As if that werent enough, Dayton went on to tell any residents who object to his policies to move. Look around you. This is Minnesota, Dayton said at a recent NAACP meeting in St. Cloud. Minnesota is not like it was 30, 50 years ago. This is Minnesota and you have every right to be here. And anybody who cannot accept your right to be here, and this is Minnesota, should find another state. If you are that intolerant, he continued. If you are that much of a racist or a bigot, then find another state. Watch the video below and tell us what you think.
