And there you go again, with the "leftists this" and "leftists that." And with your completely merit-less arguments. No "leftist" wants anyone to die from lack of a ventilator.
But Trumpists sure are hoping many, many undocumented workers die, aren't you? <--See, that's the same specious argument you are making regarding "leftists" not caring about Americans, and I'm certain you'll deny it's true. But you certainly have no problem making these same phony arguments about the left every chance you get.
Your posts prove, over and over again, that you have no understanding of the concept of humanity. I sincerely hope that all the Americans around the world who are stuck in other countries aren't being denied care because they're not natives to the country. I bet you would be outraged to discover they were being put out in the street to die, but you have no qualms about doing that to people here.
Illegals are not human beings to you. Go look up the word humanity and then try to convince yourself that you have even a drop of humanity in your being whatsoever.
Please explain why JAMS is correct with her accusation that I don’t see illegals as human simply because I think Americans should get priority for medical equipment when there isn’t enough for everyone. I don’t think your comment is coming across the way you intended,
This is a strawman argument that only you are making. No one would deny lifesaving action if that action was possible. But medical resources are finite and will be rationed. At issue is the prioritization of needed medical equipment when there's not enough to go around. Leftist politicians have prioritized illegals over citizens in the past. Will they continue to do so in the face of the the shortages this pandemic has highlighted?
This entire argument is ridiculous precisely because medical personnel is not going to care about the immigration status of patients that are before them. There would be no way for "leftist politicians to prioritize illegals over citizens" because they are not on the front lines, treating whoever comes in regardless of status. Whoever presents in need of care will get care as long as it's available. Immigration status is immaterial in this discussion unless you want medical staff to first determine a patient's status before deciding to treat him. And I don't believe you do.

I'm not referring to you with that statement, Rachel976. I am referring to myself.

Kudos to you for admitting right out loud that you don't see illegals as human beings. Many others undoubtedly feel the same way but would never admit it outright.

Well, thank you.
Truthfully, I have a long list of "people" I don't consider human and worthy of life, e.g., rapists/sex crimes, people who harm elderly, animal abusers, child molesters, opportunists (think Bernie Madoff), murders, people who harm mentally ill and so on.
