LOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Wow. Do you really think that Illegals are the only ones dealing/smuggling the drugs?
No, but they ARE tne only ones dealing/smuggling drugs AND illegally entering the US. Unfortunately, the "local" scumbags have the right to be here---much as we may want to "deport" them, we can't.
Such people would NEVER allow a second family to move in to their own homes for "humanitarian" purposes however, despite the fact that even if they have a one bedroom apartment, that "extra" family would be happy sleeping on the floor of the living room rather than out on the streets.
This is a brilliant, simple point..but good luck in trying to get any response. I've tried saying the exact same thing at least two dozen times over the years--"You--(the open-borders folks) wouldn't want to come home to find your house full of strangers--even NICE strangers. You'd call the cops in a MINUTE."....I've NEVER gotten a valid response, not ONCE. A few brave souls will sputter "well--uh--that's DIFFERENT. My home is really 'mine', but the country is--uh-- 'public' ".....Pretty lame excuse, which is probably why MOST such people simply get 'mad', and refuse any further discussion of the matter.....

our taxes fund shelters. just because we desire privacy does not mean we arent humanitarian.

Shelters offer emergency, temporary, short-term aid. These folks don't want shelters--they want to live here, permanently. Millions have already done so, with no apparent "cutoff" date even being discussed (we've already HAD a big amnesty). This is quite literally the permanent immigration of huge numbers of illegal folks (about TEN PERCENT of the population of a pretty "big" country is more than just a "few")---and comparing THIS with the concept of "shelter" is quite a "stretch". People get "kicked out" of shelters, usually in just a few days or weeks.

i dont know what kind of shelters you have in your area, but the ones in san diego offer long-term housing for the homeless, in that they can sleep there every night if need be.
owning a house is not an easy thing these days. we need to bring down the cost of housing to help shelter everybody, without a huge credit burden. small, affordable condos would be an excellent start.
