I see it struck a nerve! Let me help you and your pals out. Our side is in charge and will be victorious over this onslaught of foreigners coming to transform our society and culture. It's coming, believe me.

Yet you object when Mexico allows Central Americans go thru MX to the US border.

You pretend to think otherwise.
Not that ignorance of the law is an excuse, but why would you believe migrants know the ins and outs of immigration law in this country?

I'll stop objecting if we escort them through the US so they can immigrate to Canada.

That's like saying a paper cut and an incision from heart surgery are both cuts. It ignores a whole lot of other circumstances surrounding each problem.

I believe you.

I really do. I've already talked to my kids about leaving the country after they graduate high school, if not college. They are both qualified to go to college in another country. I see what's coming down the pike for this country and I don't want my kids, or possible grandkids, dealing with the fallout from this insanity.

I kind of didn't see the cheering part coming.

I am clearly too much of an optimist.

Exactly. Should my home get broken into and robbed? My car stolen? My credit cards stolen and used? None of those are violent, so every person who commits those crimes should not go to jail?

We have laws for a reason. We need to uphold them. Because they protect things that belong to us, even if the crime committed isn't a violent one. Including breaking into this country.

Yet they keep flocking right into the arms of the “Nazis”.

I know you refuse to accept that.

And I know you'll cut off this post.

And I know you'll have an off the cuff remark to insult me.

Carry on.
Not two different things at all. Illegals show up at our border. They demand to be let in, their families kept intact, and their needs paid for, just because that's how they want to be treated.

If someone showed up at your door, demanded entry, along with their entire family, with you footing the bill, would you let them stay? Because THAT would be the humanitarian way.
