The Rev Martin Luther King Jr wasn’t motivated by judeo christian principles?

The ideas of equality and freedom, all the rights that are endowed by our creator, what do you suppose that means?

With your worldview, you may have convinced yourself that by creator, they were talking about Stalin or Mao. But they meant God.

What's 16,000 Haitians entering Del Rio Texas in one long chain over a weekend? Will you quit being such a perfectionist!

A constant chain of thousands of Haitians crossed the river into Texas. They were able to cross for hours and hours in a continuous flow. No one stopped them.

I remember several years ago, a young congressional candidate wanted to show how open the border was, he went to Mexico, rented an elephant and a mariachi band, and rode the elephant across the border, with the mariachi band marching next to him, playing music. True story. But we don't have an open border.

Jim you story is from 2006. Guess who was POTUS. GW Bush Open borders! talk about being a parrot .

You want mine fields?

Such transfers will continue "in order to ensure that irregular migrants are swiftly taken into custody, processed, and removed from the United States consistent with our laws and policy," DHS said in a statement.


But the usual suspects think the above isn’t happening .. following the law that’s to outrageous

the 16,000 illegals in Del Rio, is going on right now.

i explicitly said the elephant story was “several years ago.”

“you want mine fields?”

yes, because the only two choices are wide open borders, or mine fields. there’s nothing in between. All countries which effectively control immigration, do it with mine fields.

Do you have mine fields on your front lawn to keep people
out, Einstein? or do you just shut your door, because it turns out walls work, even when Trump says it.

you’re not embarrassed by that?

Why would I be embarrassed ? Do you not having any empathy for these people who feel they need to do what they are doing?

Are they are being deported? Are they not?

Or is this another faux invasion so they can vote for Dems

The United States' southern border with Mexico is 1,933 miles long, stretching from the Pacific Ocean to the tip of South Texas. Some 700 of those miles have fencing in place


Why do conservatives only think in terms of obstacles.. as solutions

From fences to voter id to 6 week Abortion laws

But they never look at stability as the easiest way to slow migration

Yet we’re not building a 5525 mile fence with Canada

Why because Canada is stable .
We only get their comedians

Look at the facts Haiti and the Dominican Republic

Same island 1 side stable 1 side not

And who’s under the bridge Haitians whom homes were destroyed by a earthquake and their political system In turmoil from an assassination

same question as in another thread…wayne, when you can’t respond to what i actually said, and you have to pretend that i said something totally different ( mine fields, sharia law), what does that tell you about your beliefs?

Oh, so it’s showing empathy to allow illegal immigration? What about the abuse these people suffer at the hands of the smugglers on the other side? some estimates say that 25% of the women who cross illegally, are sexually assaulted on the mexican side, because bad guys know where the crossing points are.

So if slowing that to happen, if incentivizing people to abandon toddlers at the border, if incentivizing adults crossing illegally to “rent” children so they can enjoy the benefits of appearing as a family unit, if all that is showing empathy for these people, sorry i don’t see it.

i have deep empathy for anyone feeling despair. doesn’t mean i want them all coming here.
