Wait for it....
Open borders for any country, whether US, UK, Mexico, Japan etc to change the demographics of the majority is racist if anything.

A new caravan is coming with 2000 more... How many more do you want Democrats? When is it enough?

Why blame Democrats?

Obviously Trump's border policies are FAILING big time.

How are the Republicans going to fix it? I can tell you this - they AREN'T going to fund the wall.

Separating Mothers and children was supposed to be the big fix - inhumane as it was - but apparently it didn't work either.

Every country even islands have borders even if that border is with international waters.

Stop clowning. A nation's borders extend 12 nautical miles of sovereign waters from the coast and is effectively the border.

Cause your policies and rhetoric are bringing them in... You cannot be pro-illegal immigration and suddenly say you are blameless... And yes, Republicans can fix it but Democrats don't want it fixed...

Why do you keep repeating yourself over and over when I have addressed every single one of your lame remarks over and over? You never answer "my" question as to what have the Democrats have done to stop this nonsense. Why is that? The Democrats won't even go along with an e-verify. As for the wall, the Democrats aren't going to fund it either so what's your point? Not all Republicans are against the wall either.


Once again, these parents were forewarned not to cross our border with their children illegally or they'd be arrested. We don't jail kids with their parents not even American ones. Their kids were treated humanely and allotted everything they needed. It was the parents to blame in all of this not Trump. Now, are you going to keep repeating all of the above again?

First, we fire over their heads. Then we fire tear gas at them. Then we fire rubber bullets at them.

And if that doesn't work? Then we use live bullets. We shoot to kill. And we keep shooting until the threat is neutralized.

That is how you repel an invasion.

Is your reading comprehension really this bad? I said we first warn the invaders away. If an innocent citizen or border hiker is warned to go away, they would speak up and explain themselves. Or, they would obey and then try approaching at a different time, not in the company of an angry mob.

I said, "If they attempt to force their way through our border, we respond with force." If an American citizen who has lost his passport is stupid enough to try and force his way past armed guards, after having been warned and then fired over his head . . . well, tough luck. Your odds of not being treated as an invader are much greater if you don't act like one.
