Young Migrants Corralled & Abandoned.
shouldn't that be abandoned young migrants corralled and abandoned again?
AYMCAA is a weird acronym
Remember when republicans couldn't get themselves enough little brown kids?
What happens if the boarder was freely open one day every month, what then?
Lost your passport and still trying to get to Tijuana for a donkey show ?
A fellas gotta work. 20 bucks is 20 bucks.
This thread is kind of old.
Them's dead yet?
Them's dead yet?
his 3 times a day goat show already has him stretched thin in that area.
and their thought...Remember when republicans couldn't get themselves enough little brown kids?
can we trade all these little kids back for the one marine/army soldier.....don't quite recall....in a mexican jail that obama doesn't seem to want back?
what would bo bergdahl want?

"you don't have to go home, but you can't stay here"
remember when democrats would invoke godwin's law? they've upped their game:
click-fu
yes, it's *exactly* like fleeing the holocaust
‘cluster coitus’
So even the 3% (I have no idea what that means) think he's a jackass. What now?
Now he's black, great.
Certainly an extreme analogy, but I think his underlying point is many of these "refugees" are fleeing an area in which an estimated 85,000 people have been killed since 2010, and sending them back into that environ could very well lead to some of their deaths. Hell, using Patrick's example, you could even make the case the US (and most everyone else) was not aware of what the Nazis had in mind for Jews in 1939, whereas we are pretty damn sure of what's going on south of border these days.

Well you certainly can’t be expecting those godless, heathen democrats to be quoting what the Bible says when it comes to how to treat immigrants and foreigners, now can you? Surely the republicans are the expert in that area?
slaves? because the bible's cool with that
can a case be made also for chi/oakland/detroit?
politicians - of either stripe - need to SFTU if ever they find themselves tempted to get old testament
kind of like the movie the purge.....but it's only one law you get to break but it can be broken indefinitely?

Might as well, since they seem to do a pretty good job of avoiding all that pesky new testament stuff.

I can put these morons in touch with a recruiter if they really want to go on patrol and defend 'murika™...

Operation "Normandy" to stop an invasion?
So they see themselves as the Wehrmacht trying to hang onto occupied territory????
these people.... using words... that they don't understand,.
"Wacht am Rio Grande" just doesnt have the same ring to it...
It's fvckin easy to be a badass when you're fighting unarmed children. Let's see these tools try that against someone who will shoot back.
I have not served in the military, but have had the experience of being shot at. It's not like the movies, not at all.
Just let the real pros deal with the boarder issue. Speaking of which, we haven't heard from Manimal in a while.

You know, this is a tough one.
While it's easy to bash these guys, you all know they have a ton of silent support from a LOT of people all over the country who would never think of doing such a thing themselves but nod their heads in approval when they read about this stuff in the news.
And nobody is proposing any solution to the virtual non-existent border security aside from a few dozen checkpoints across the entire Mexico/US border. Is it ok, or sustainable, or acceptable, to continue to allow as many as 700k undocumented immigrants to enter the country every year? Do you think we can all understand or at least appreciate the situation the same way as those people in Southern CA, AZ, NM and TX?
I'd like to hear a complete and clear explanation of what 'immigration reform' means to all those politicians who are using this issue as a war cry.
I have nothing against these people. Shooting people probably isn't an option, but, what is a country do with/about them?

Migrant workers cross the border illegally every year to come here and pick fruit, vegetables and tobacco for wages no American would even consider. Many folks think this is wrong and they should go through the proper channels to enter legally and learn English. Problem is, the majority of these workers are illiterate in their own country. A bit unreasonable to expect someone to learn a language when they cannot even read their own.
As far as I'm concerned, anyone with the stones to cross a desert and risk their life to have a chance at a better one, can stay. I say welcome. My ancestors got here by enduring similar hardships for the same reasons.

And I could go shoot a black person in the name of preserving the white race and I would have plenty of head nodding support. That doesn't mean it's right, correct, or has any place in a civilized society.
Like with most things, give this news the life test. Ask yourself: "in what way is this affecting my life at all right now or in the future".
What's the answer to that?
The head nods are coming from people who just want to be pissed at the current president. And their dipshlt information sources are propping this up for just that reason. And this reason only.
First; I don't know how to run a country.
That said, is it your opinion that unchecked, un-monitored immigration cannot affect "life at all right now or in the future"? I'm sure it affect MANY people's lives 'right now', though not mine directly. That's why I asked about the difference in appreciation of the issue regionally between people in say, Arizona vs Wisconsin.
Nowhere did I say this isn't based in racism, but not much isn't, these days.
I don't think the 'head nods' have anything to do with the current president. This didn't start 6 years ago. I think this is more of a galvanizing issue than that. I think it's easy for people to get fired up over what looks like selective enforcement of some laws vs other laws.

Oh yea, also, so what do we do?
We have immigration laws, and too often they're not enforced effectively. It seems kind of nuts to allow that to continue, but we can't simply throw the rules away. Can we?
If a big chuck of the immigrants decided that Tahoe was the place to be, do you think it might skew your opinion after a couple of years?

I take it you have never been to California.
Must spread. I felt compelled for posting an article that called these guys hoopleheads.
