Besides, I'd be very unnerved by a robot being in my room. Too many robot movies for me.
What if a cat, dressed in a shark suit rides on top of the robot vacuum cleaner to supervise?

Well alot of people say one thing, alot of others say another and the genetics can not make heads or tails of it.

Answer the questions above..And please dont pull the whole race card have you the problems illegal immigration as caused the South West?

You are comparing legal immigration and illegal immigration well as vastly difference times.

We did not have a welfare system back then nor did we have elected officials buy votes/imporing voter blocks.
Every single one of that list is only your presumption.

And as a matter of fact, 100 years ago America had welfare systems, but they were local, not national, and vote buying was at it's most rampant as well.

You're not reading very closely. Did I say any group of immigrants didn't have problems? No. I said they all did. Not all major waves of immigration have ever been closely controlled, either. While Ellis Island in the New York harbor was effective at controlling diseases entering the U.S., other entry points did not have such strict controls. It's well known that a 'plague boat', a ship containing a disease outbreak, could land in Baltimore and receive much less attention, or in New Orleans and receive even less attention. New Orleans became the major immigration entry for millions of illegal Irish who could not obtain immigration papers. The Irish were put to work draining the swamps around the city, work that not even the freed black residents wouldn't touch.

We are both more protected than ever before from foreign disease, and more vulnerable, as any visitor to the U.S. who does not intend to migrate can carry a disease just as easily as one who is migrating.

There is nothing certain or fore ordained in any of that list of yours. People change in unexpected ways as soon as they become Americans.

It wouldn't be a higher standard of living if you have to increase taxes to pay for old people.

So whites have always been the demographic bedrock. To suggest that justifies opposing immigration on racial grounds is a non-sequitur.

That was fun.
Telling groups they can not enter into are nation is not opposing, that law.

Base a solution on facts, a mountain of the them, take the message to the people, tell them how it will harm this nation, economically, political, culturally.

If we can not a civil war will happen, you can not import millions of left leaning voters into this nation, having the 3rd world this nation and expect us to sit back and take it..

We need to win over America what is very against amnesty, if the dems want to stand in our way fine

They will have to tell young voters how they will have to compete for loans and grants against the poor, unskilled immigrates and their kids.

They will have to tell blue collar workings they will have to compete with people who will work for far less money then they do because they can always go on welfare, bankrupting small businesses and laying off millions of trades men.

They will have to tell millions of union members their will have to take lower pay, and might of the jobs shipped oversea due to higher that will come from having millions of new entitlement uses in America.

They will have to tell the Police unions and Border Patrol unions that they favor up to a million new criminals in this nation, gang members, drug dealers, rapist, child molesters, Murders and serial killers.

They will have to tell parents they that they will turn their neighborhood and schools into a 3rd world slum filled with violence, gangs, drugs, high taxes, and low to no freedom

Then they will have to explain to people living in a now high crime, gang ridden hellhole why they have to be disarmed, having their right to keep and bear arms limited, infringed, or abolished.

Then you will have to tell all of the above that you they the left support higher taxes, fewer jobs, less freedom, higher and higher crime just so they can import millions of voters who will murder this nation in exchange for a welfare check...

You can look up the study that found that multicultural communities, that result from this birth-rate replacement immigration, have less trust and community bonding. Less community bonding means less effective community co-operation and therefore less effective political co-operation and therefore less effective political power in the hands of the people. Divide and conquer.


Ever stop to think this is what the Progressive/Marxist/Statist/Elitist want?

It occurs to me that it would be quite hard to impose dictatorial rule over a society united by common heritage, common history, common ideals and a love of liberty.

It's a lot easier to rule with an iron fist when the nation is divided by sectarian and ethnic strife, and reeling from the collapse of a welfare state. A divided republic cannot stand

The irony is, the Communist goal is going to leave the party members in charge of 6 billion poor prisoners. At least in the VERY end... The enemies of freedom will be kings, ruling over a kingdom of crap.

I wonder if they will be baffled about the death of the shining cities they saw themselves commanding when they started their war on humanity and freedom, but then again they wont win.

I had to look that one up...funny! I actually would be okay with a cat in a shark suit on a robot vacuum cleaner cleaning up my home, where the only thing it replaced was my underappreciated and completely uncompensated job. It's no different than having push vacuum in the home that I have to run myself.
