and a mayor, don't know where, said she/they WILL welcome refugees. Will look for where.

HERE, Baltimore!

'Mayor Stephanie Rawlings-Blake — who has identified increased immigration as one of the keys to growing Baltimore's population — directly contradicted the governor's call. "I hope that refugees from Syria will look to our city as a potential place to call home," she said.

"The governor is leaving the door open on these refugees," he said. "My position is zero tolerance – not to permit them to come in under any circumstances."'
