There is nothing you have said that makes me think you're very smart, goonybob.

If nothing else, Donny Two Scoops is standing up for our 2nd amendment rights. You of all people should appreciate that.



Hank, just when I think you have a brain you disappoint me. For you and all of the other fools that lean on the second amendment I ask that you take your limited reading and retention abilities to first, go back and read about WHEN and WHY the 2nd amendment was added.

It was a very different time back then. Second, just like the fake christian right, people twist the 2nd amendment and in the case of fake christians twist the Bible to fit their own agendas. Very similar to how Trump twists reality. Sadly, there are plenty of suckers that buy into all three alternate realities. I though maybe, just maybe you had a grip. Guess not.

There's a presumption here that what Trump is doing is the wrong move. I
disagree, but still I hear nothing better being offered.

The US can not just open up it's borders to all comers...it would destroy the
economy, and within a couple dozen years (or less) America would become
just another 3rd world country.

There is absolutely nothing in the "agreement" that agrees to anything, there are no standards, no timetables, no inspections, no nothing...and certainly no more likelihood of peace today than there was a week ago or ten years ago.

North Korea makes a habit of just saying one thing and doing another, and Trump has a habit of believing it if it comes in the form of a compliment to his giant insecurity/ego...so we will see.

Those who think anything historic or interesting has happened yet have literally been under a rock for the last 30 years...walk it back, a lot.

Todd forgot to mention the billions in taxes they pay each year.

Yet there’s no doubt there are many bad dudes doing bad things that need to be kept out or shot if already here.

The solution doesn’t seem all that hard to me. A few ports where illegal aliens can become documented aliens. It has to be easy and predictable and remove any incentive to attempt an illegal entry. If you’re caught crossing the border at night you’re shot. If your caught crossing the border during the day you are shot. If you’re a family with kids, or just some dude who would rather work than gangbang, just cross at an authorized port. You may spend a few months in a refugee camp being vetted but you’d be on a bus heading to your new job soon enough. And once documented you can go home for Christmas once picking season ends. See next year.

Open borders leads to a disaster. Closed borders leads to a disaster (I want my social security check when the time comes dammit).

But what do I know! Half the country hating the other half while 90% of the politicians are re-elected seems to be working for most frown.

how do immigrants, who are illegally in this country, that dont have a valid SSN or other identifying "number", paying taxes without getting noticed?

who are they paying for? they are undocumented, meaning they dont exist... so who are they paying money to, and on whos behalf?

why are people not upset about the parents putting their children through that sh!t?

in America, if you put your child in danger, like making them travel through the country alone, or cross a river alone, you would be punished and your kid would be taken by CPS, happens every single day for far less...

why is it any different for people trying to sneak into this country?

parents are litterally taking their children, or sending them alone, knowing FULLY that they will be raped, because its "part of the journey"..

how is that acceptable? how come no one is talking about that?

if an American did it, people would crucify them, they would be sentenced to prison for 20+ years, but its ok for a illegal immigrant to do it?

the law/policy was nothing more than a warning, if you come here illegally, you will be arrested, and detained, and you wont be with your kids... dont do it....

yet they still choose to do it, and kids are still being raped, and abused, yet no one cares....

just gotta focus on Trump right?

THIS is whats wrong with society....

and just like that agent said, families arent being seperated unless there is a criminal conviction of some sort....

like the guy a couple days ago that was seperated from his daughter, because he had a conviction of RAPE in the US....

parents molest their children all the time, and there are people running around un noticed with charges like that, and 5 year old children in their custody....

but Trump, right?

It’s called payroll deduction but I understand that’s not something you’re familiar with so google, “how much taxes do illegal immigrants pay each year.”

Answer. It’s more than you.

And really this has nothing to do with Trump and everything to do with Congress. Try and keep up.

Still on the assumption train..

Well I'm gonna assume that you're ok with kids getting raped because you 1 aren't willing to answer any of my questions, and 2 you have done nothing about it...

PS, Congress can't do sh!t about children getting raped and used as slaves, the only way to stop it, is to make it known what happens if you get caught, which is what was happening, but people wanna whine about sh!t...

So congratulations, well done for allowing it to continue, and not stopping it...

You really care about the kids....

When adjusting for payroll taxes against all government benefits received, illegal immigration creates an annual deficit of around $55 - 115 billion dollars depending on the source study used. That's the price tag for cheap strawberries and it doesn't include the $100+ billion dollars in remittances sent back home to origin countries. Amnesty also provides zero relief. If all current illegals were granted amnesty, the long term lifetime impact would be roughly $6.3 trillion in deficits. Source: google search function

Yes - they pay taxes, but the net net to America is a great big ol' hole in the pocket.

Golddigger, you really don't get it do you? Nothing coming out of Congress at this time pays for the wall. But more importantly, in the interest of getting [Bleeeeep!] done, you are willing to cause great pain to kids who are separated from the parents. IMHO, that is an absolutely un-defensible position.

J.F.C. You do realize that ILLEGALLY crossing the border is a crime, right?

So you and your wife decide to go rob a store...and you bring your kids along.
You get busted...guess what, you and the wifey go to jail and your kids wind
up in the foster system....right where all that abuse you mentioned can take place.

These kids parent(s) broke the law, and they knew they were
breaking the law when they crossed illegally. Get caught, and mom
and dad go to jail while their case is being heard, and the kids go to
those detention places. Air conditioned, 3 squares a day, TV and other
recreation. Sounds like a real gulag. And yes, they miss their
parents...why?.... because their parents were f'n stupid!

WTF else is law enforcement supposed to do? Just look the other way,
ignore the law and let 'em all in?

BTW, the executive order Trump just signed was intended as a short-
term solution to the parents/kids separation issue. It's still up to
Congress to get off their collective asses and negotiate/pass new
immigration laws and policies.

GD, Yes it is a crime and it has been a crime for a very, very long time. I do believe in secure borders and I believe in compassion. Two things that are not incompatible with each other. I agree that Congress needs to act and while we wait, I don't want to make a bad situation worse by continuing this policy of separation. But, more to the point, this Administration has shown a cynical attitude towards families who are illegally crossing. This has everything to do with Trump trying to fulfill his campaign promise of the wall. Never mind that his promise was explicit, Mexico would pay for the wall. Now, he so desperately wants to fulfill this promise that he is willing to use young children as chips in his poker game. It is cynical, it is craven, and its disgusting. Your attempt at diversion is the same.

The other thing that I see here is even more disturbing. Trump is like the volunteer fire fighter that sets an arson fire so that he can be the "hero" in putting it out. That is exactly what he has done with this policy. We rightly describe that fire fighter as having a mental illness and sentence them to get help or to jail. I am beginning to believe that we need to do the same with this guy.

Presidents for decades say the same thing about promising Immigration Reform and Border Security , but never seem to get it done.
This short montage of short videos on immigration speeches by:

Obama
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ja6PXluSzng&feature=youtu.be

Bush Jr.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Dd1AZNUxWW4&feature=youtu.be

Bill Clinton
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RzlviQH4FhQ&feature=youtu.be

Bush SR and Reagan on immigration
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6gYHMwEdvIk&feature=youtu.be

The can has been kicked down the road on immigration and border security to Trump just like North Korea...

Basic Gubmint 101. Immigration law is the responsibility of Congress. They have failed, period. The President can fiddle around within the law, direct through policy how things can be done, but it is the Congress that has to write law.

A major problem is that neither party will work with the other. look at the House now. They won't bring anything forward unless there are sufficient R votes to pass it. Are they afraid (both sides) that bipartisan middle ground solution will leave the bat-[Bleeeeep!] crazies on both Far Sides out in the cold?

I have noticed that the overall quality of education has been declining for a really long time.
