If that process also includes screening their cases for validity then it's much better than allowing them to come up to our border and allowing them into our country prior to screening their cases for validity but I doubt that is what is happening down there.

You mean whining about the affordable housing shortage. Those 4.9 million illegal aliens the Biden Admin let into the US aren't renting or buying mansions. They're ADDING to the crisis of insufficient affordable housing as they have to live somewhere and they don't have much money.

Well, what better way to reduce the numbers of illegal entry than by just making them legal before they get there?

Sorta backward but that is the upside down world we live in.

Maybe so maybe not. I chuckle at the thought of showing General Washington an AR15 and then giving a demonstration and inform him it isn't a weapon of war. Can you imagine the look on his face? Anyhoo I digress.

I'm sure you have proof of the ONE MILLION EMPTY HOMES in FL.

You do have proof, right.......?

Not sure what the point is about snow birds? Should we let illegals take over snow birds homes? Should there be a law about how many homes someone can own?

They aren't "illegals" though...they are all refugees now.

It was asked about the million homes. I answered why some of them are empty.

Yes, but the same could be said for someone showing a muzzleloader musket to someone from the Roman Empire times. Technology marches on. Can you imagine what kind of weapon someone from five hundred years in the future could show us right now? I'll bet an AR-15 would look to them like a spear looks to us.
