Guns and bullets are standard equipment for police.
No one is suggesting we shoot them.
Unless they force the issue.

At least we are not advocating we NUKE them as a democrat has recently threatened people exercising their 2nd amendment rights.

OMG you are so biased.

"Unlawful invasion."



I find it ironic you make the comment about uniforms but use military terms when convenient to convey your point..

OR...

We could just turn them away and keep the chem ordinance locked up.

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

They intend to make illegal entry into the U.S. - That's unlawful.
If someone breaks into your house, that's a home "invasion."

Throngs of people attempting that to any country are making an "unlawful invasion."

And how would "we...turn them away", specifically?

You seem adverse to the use of the term "invasion". Let's bring the term closer to home.

Do you know what a home invasion is? Let's say 100 people show up at your door and they demand entrance. It's warm inside, the home looks inviting from the outside, probably plenty of food inside for hungry people, etc., etc. They want in...period. As they start banging down your door, breaking windows in your home, etc., would you do anything to protect your home and family? Or would you just invite them all in and take your chances what they'll do to you, your wife and your kids?

Or would you just dial 911 and wait for the police?

They go to point of entries and we say no.

Same way we do it with everyone else.

Haha!

You guys are the biggest group of wimps I've ever seen...

"Can we come in?"

"No."

We do it every day by the thousands.

But they're not using the POEs.

And is that how all the illegals in this country got here: They went to a POE and we said, "Yes"?

Well...I guess some rich dude like Soros could rent airplanes and airlift them across.

So, tell us: How did millions of illegals get into this country? They all played by the rules and went to their nearest POE and the authorities all said, "yes"?

See post #547. Since Clocker seems to have chosen to ignore my question, maybe you would like to give it a try.

Be sure to check out the quote, as well, if you are sincerely interested in knowing what their intentions seem to be.

I don't see any about this pending 'invasion' as something to be taken lightly.

The majority came via international airplane flights ... but ALL of those had current passports, so at least there is some history on them .. except from certain parts of the world, that no longer have control of their passport production.

Sorry, I got distracted. I'll get back to you as soon as I stop laughing at Trump's self-evaluation on Fox today.

Quote:
Finally, Trump gave himself high marks on his progress as president two years in.

"I think I’m doing a great job. We have the best economy we’ve ever had," said Trump. We’re doing really well. We would have been at war with North Korea if, let’s say, that administration continued forward."

"I would give myself, I would – look, I hate to do it, but I will do it, I would give myself an A+, is that enough?" said Trump. "Can I go higher than that?"

I would assume they slowly trickle in.

Which is why I find your comments about invasion and the deployment of the military spurious at best and pointless fearmongering at worst.
