The chief danger that confronts the coming century will be religion without the Holy Ghost,
Christianity without Christ, forgiveness without repentance, salvation without regeneration,
politics without God, heaven without hell.
William Booth
“I should like to see any power of the world destroy this race, this small tribe of unimportant people, whose wars have all been fought and lost, whose structures have crumbled, literature is unread, music is unheard, and prayers are no more answered. Go ahead, destroy Armenia . See if you can do it. Send them into the desert without bread or water. Burn their homes and churches. Then see if they will not laugh, sing and pray again. For when two of them meet anywhere in the world, see if they will not create a New Armenia.”
― William Saroyan
The inherent vice of capitalism is the unequal sharing of the blessings. The inherent blessing of socialism is the equal sharing of misery. -- Winston Churchill
Ignorance is not an opinion, liberals
I believe in Christianity as I believe the sun has risen; not only because I see it, but because by it I see everything else. C. S. Lewis
if my people, who are called by my name, will humble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, and I will forgive their sin and will heal their land.
2 Chronicles 7:14

They have HUMAN rights, but zero CIVIL rights, and certainly no expectation of government largesse.
Entering someone else’s country without permission confers civil rights as much as breaking into someone else’s house establishes kinship.

Ya know… this constant bullshit fawing over these illegal MIGRANT mutts consistently stirs up my well controlled violent and anger side. It sickens me that there’s even a question over this. As MIGRANTS they were all uninvited. IMMIGRANTS are those who we invite to legally take residence in our OUR country and as such are still guest that we expect to be on their best behavior, right?
As Mr. Bocopro said…. yes, human rights… of course we’re a first world civilized people.
But IMO, none of the Bill of Rights as non citizens. Not welfare, WIC, SNAP, EBTS, tax credits, housing, education or ESL studies and NO instste college credits! When out of state legal natural born citizens cannot .
How cheap should citizenship come? Every right afforded citizens ? Why then even bother taking that 5 year work and quest toward citizenship if you’re “entitled” to all the benefits as soon as your illegal ass makes it to a border or sanctuary city.
And I’m disgusted that we stand by and put up with this sneering ungrateful arrogance while you’re waving your shitty flag from the FAILED COUNTRY YOU LEFT?
In my world if you made such demands and were illegal and waved that country of origin rag…. you’d be in the first bus back. And I’m sick if hearing this crap of “breaking up families” and jobs that we won’t do and every other lie that Pedro from Univision throws at us.
I’m sick of accommodating people who do not desire to assimilate…. who are here sometimes fir the money and the gimme gimme bennies that you and I can’t get as citizen taxpayers…. but these POS are pritorized over Vets?
Just how damn stupid are we when 100 billion a year is squandered on those in our disgraceful salad bowl… of individual ingredients that will never mix. When disparities like this exist in a country you can count on its culture to die.

You might think that because your ancestors were slaves, that you are owed something. You’re not, because you were never owned by anyone…they were…and hundreds of thousands of people who looked more like their owners than your ancestors paid the price in blood for what your ancestors were owed.

The reply to immigrants rights is comparable to what I told my youngest daughter when she was 15 and asked about HER rights. I told her she didn’t have any and had to earn her rights because she is taking from society, not producing, and only has the right to a home, food, a clean bed, and an education. She had to earn it. The same applies to aliens. Come in the way our forefathers all did and earn it.

Kid, I loved this line in your link “Aspects of the Constitution that address certain basic human rights apply to everyone, even people without proper documentation.”
“Without Proper documentation”? That means you came in legally but something got messed up at the immigration office, either in your home country or here….without proper docs means you haven’t the paper you need when you came in legally.
Illegal immigrants who broke into our country aren’t WITHOUT PROPER DOCUMENTATION, that’s a euphemism for ILLEGALS WHO SNUCK ACROSS THE BORDER NOT CARING ABOUT OUR LAWS, right, Kid?

This whole immigration kerfuffle can be ironed out pretty quickly. Just don’t let anybody come into the country. If they do just slam them into jail and wait for the immigrant’s home country to pay a ransom for their return. It works for Iran and North Korea, and you don’t see people lining up to go into those countries.
My humane solution for the Hispanic people here illegally is to let the children born here stay here if their parents can find someone to take them, like an aunt, uncle, or cousin. We will not be accused of splitting up families because we won’t force the parents to take their kids with them. Problem solved.
The wall is non-negotiable. In itself it is a stimulus project. Think of all the illegal aliens that will be put to work pouring concrete, digging holes, or any of the dozens of jobs that will need to be done. Plus, the drug dealers will have a ready made market without crossing the border by selling their goods to the wall workers. Pot breaks will be in all the labor contracts.
I don’t think we are planning this thing the right way. If we are going to go the trouble of building a wall for the ages, we need to leverage that into creating money making tourist destinations. How about integrating some seriously high roller-coaster rides into the wall construction. In some of those border places there is some great scenery.
While we are at it lets build a parkway across the USA along the southern border. Call it Freedom Parkway, and use it as a road between theme parks across the southern border. Maybe we ought to get Disney in on this thing.
It could be really big.

I know of no country who would accept such people on a permanent basis.
None. Unless you are a demcocrat looking for zombie voters. I noticed recently that Australia was only offering citizenship to those persons who were qualified high performance jet pilots.

Z, the immigration thing is no short term fix. Going to take a while, but significant improvements have been made. PRO: Far fewer are coming across the border feeling it’s going to be a waste of time. CON: ICE Agents say each of hem currently have been assigned 10,000 + cases. They probabably couldn’t clear their task list in their lifetime. We need many more agents. Barry really screwed things up so bad it’s even hard to verbalize.
BUT – We have fewer people coming across and we are sending many more back that barry did. and they are concentrating on criminals. Net positive. (If we are being righteously informed)
