Terrible analogy. Even if you accept the premise behind it, an terrorist attack by refugees is probably more similar to eating so many skittles to the point you experience some negative side effects, not clinical death.

Specifically, 10.9 billion Skittles:

Vox didn't think that through very carefully. They looked for a seemingly relevant number, found it, and ran with it. The skittles are supposed to represent potential refugees, not Americans killed in a terrorist attack by refugees in any given previous year.

No one has the RIGHT to enter the US.  If the American People, as a whole, say "No Syrian Refugees", then that's what public policy ought to be, unless there is some super-compelling reason that is in the best interest of the American People (citizens) to take them in.

We don't have to allow ANY immigrants.  What's good for immigrants may not be good for the American Citizenry.  And the American Citizenry is SUPPOSED to come first.

People should be able to move wherever they want. Human beings shouldn't be confined by imaginary (and often arbitrary) lines on a map.

Hopefully the United States will open it's borders up in the next few decades. It's simply the right thing to do, and the sane thing as well; just imagine how much we'd save by not wasting money on pointless agencies like the CBP.
Pretty much this. Yeah, people would be transporting drugs back and forth; they'll find a way to do it anyway, and besides, it's time for us to acknowledge that it's excessive painkiller usage that brings about heroin addiction in the first place. Apart from drugs, if anyone sees us and thinks, "Ooh! The U.S. Is such a great place to commit rape!", that's our fault, not theirs.

It's America's fault for wearing that revealing dress.
