A bowl of skittles — brightly colored, fruit-flavored candies — inspired a controversial meme-gone-viral by Donald Trump, Jr., son of the GOP Presidential nominee. He tweeted: "If I had a bowl of skittles and I told you just three would kill you. Would you take a handful? That's our Syrian refugee problem."
So how many skittles would it take to accurately reflect the chances of an American being killed by a Syrian refugee? We ask Alex Nowrasteh, an immigration policy analyst at the CATO Institute, the libertarian think-tank.
