THE WALL

I believe* the refugee act of 1980 is the correct law to amend in Congress. But I'm no lawyer.

The left do it every day!

@2out and @Marion

"@EA: good point & the answer to the question. Deny asylum. Period. Immediately turn the switch to OFF."

Good luck with that. You are now taking the constitution and wiping your ass with it.

I addressed this earlier, they are being bussed up here, possibly on the US taxpayers dime.

Mc and I agree. Fuck asylum. Shut the border down hard!

Enough is enough.

I'm curious. How many days are these migrants traveling on average? Are they sleeping in shelters every night? How are they eating and drinking? Bathing? Where the fuck is their toilet paper coming from? I'm sure many have a few bucks to their name but jeez. Once they get here we give em food, drink, shelter, etc.

But hey... The more the merrier.

@EA: good point & the answer to the question. Deny asylum. Period. Immediately turn the switch to OFF.

@2out

The wall means nothing when it is an asylum situation.

We'll just call 600mm the down payment.

When you have an abundance. Don’t build a wall. Build a bigger table.

@2out

Trump's wall was estimated at nearly 20 billion.

But then again . . .

The wall makes NO difference in this case regarding the shelters.

yep

Shut the border down and the need for shelters goes away.

600mm would build a lot of wall.

“Are terrorists flooding across the border? Probably not," said Theresa Cardinal Brown, a former Department of Homeland Security official under Presidents George W. Bush and Barack Obama.

Now this here is funny as fuck. ROFLMAO@PROBABLYNOT

Shelters for what or who? Asking for a friend.

600mm would buy a shit ton of land mines & tangle-foot... just saying..

And a huge reason why I say this has to be resolved in congress and there is a group of loonies that all they want to do is bitch, but not pay for it.

DHS has asked for 600mm more for shelters. Congress, aka, the republican party, has told them to fuck off.

From CBS News dot com:

Are terrorists trying to enter the U.S. through the southern border? Here are the facts.

“Are terrorists flooding across the border? Probably not," said Theresa Cardinal Brown, a former Department of Homeland Security official under Presidents George W. Bush and Barack Obama. "But at the same time, it is true that the large number of people arriving does have national security implications."

@One

Hope you enjoyed your circlejerk.

IMO I showed courtesy of a conversation. It seems you do not want that. Good luck in your endeavors.

2MUCH---->It's like when an engineer explains how your car works versus when a mechanic explains it.

LMAO - Many engineers in the family. I always tell them, I just want to know what time it is, not how to build a watch.

"There he goes with 7 paragraphs to respond to a 3 sentence post."

Some people just have a lot of words stuck in their head that they have to shake loose.

It's like when an engineer explains how your car works versus when a mechanic explains it.

@EA, “At this time, due to political hype, politicians are bitching about the border. They are making proclamations that are inaccurate but make for great sound bites.”

Are you contending there is not an issue at the southern border. Yes or No?

“Their hyperbole states that because our borders are porous we are experiencing issues that are bad for the country. The issues that they are describing are, drugs crossing the border, and of course, because it is the drug de jour, fentanyl is what they are hyping the most.”

Are you asserting that this is being said for sound bites? If yes? I agree with you. If No? Not sure what your point is with this.

“Another issue is that there are people lined up across the border entering the country.”

Ahhh. What I refer to as the masses. I do believe this is a problem. I don’t think it is necessarily a border problem as much as it is an immigration policy problem. That is why I made the suggestion of starting the asylum in the person country of residency. It should not start once they present themselves at the border.

“And of course, another issue that they are bringing up is that people are coming in at points that are also not at our ports of entry. Trump, being a politician, is proclaiming that the people who are crossing are rapists, murderers, in essence, the dregs of society from these other countries. This has created hysteria amongst the citizens.”

I do not disagree with your statement. I believe most of the people showing up at our border are just people trying to better their lives. Their families lives. Are there bad people trying to cross in? Of course. My guess is it is a pretty small segment of who is coming over. No matter how small that segment is? They should not be here. No? Which adds to my thought of, if we stop the masses. We can actually concentrate our efforts on the dregs of society.

“Within those issues though, there can be solutions for those aliens who are trying to immigrate to the US. Could you propose a solution for that specific aspect?”

I have proposed an idea. I never claimed it’s a solution. Can you provide a proposal?

“This, of course, would require that Congress pass and fund it, therefore, that will be an assumption that it will happen.”

Which again is why I say the solution is not found at either end of the spectrum. You think otherwise. I have no problem with that. But this is a lot like 2A type stuff. The further each end of the spectrum digs in. The further we are to a solution. (IMHO)

So was that easier and more on topic? It was on your end as far as the question you have. You have an opportunity to respond.

Estimates are 12 to 13 million, not 7.5 million.

“You know, 9th grade English where you have to write a topic.”

EA’s words:”this shit is very complex and needs to be resolved in Congress.” ”

9th grade English. What is your topic? What is complex? What needs to be resolved?
