They aren't INVADERS!

They aren't grabbing little Paco and forcing their way past customs and border patrol agents carrying M4s...

I'm sorry but it isn't happening. It's the fearmongering kool aid that has you all locked into this they're "storming the gate" mentality.

Unless YOU are taking some in for Thanksgiving.
How may can I put you down for?

Problem is YOU don't matter. You mentioned fear mongering .....
Im only saying fear mongering is happening as you suggest. BY well placed and powerful Democrats.
Now I know you think that is off topic, however, I am not the one who brought top fear mongering......

I dont have to take any in Tom because we already have laws in place for this sort of thing...

Same thing I've been saying since the start...

OR...

We could just turn them away.

No one cares what YOU think about it.
Or anything, really, but specifically this.

Hey, you know, you could make a lot of money by alerting ranchers that their barn doors were open, after the horses ran off.
You seem perfect for that job!
For a guy who doesn't care you reply an awful lot to me.

Furthermore if you don't care what other people think why are you in a off-topic chat board?

I was asked by a member what I thought and provided what I would do with immigration...

Since then you and Tom two of the worst contributors on here when it comes to positing nothing have jumped in to attack me.

The original poster thought my ideas were fine... hell Boxcar even did and we were having a discussion regarding our "enemy at the gate..."

But I do thank you for your non-contribution to this thread. Again I dont know tons of Dems who climb trees with Assault Rifles but whatever... if it makes you feel better.

My plan would empower ICE so obviously I dont agree with the KKK comparison but hey way to double down on a useless discussion path.

That's the problem with the language and US v Them fearmongering of this President. This is NOT a crises. This is NOT a invasion.

50,000 people are denied entry EVERY month.

Stop buying what a politician is selling you... particularly one with a, at best, nuanced relationship with the truth.
Most of the people will not be applying for asylum; most have said that they are coming for work...supposedly.

Of course, #1 and 2 will apply, for now...our military is there. #3 will apply, once the military is gone...business as usual.

You're sounding like someone who referred to ISIS as a "JV team." You know what that got us, don't ya? And before you go ballistic, I not comparing the 'caravan' people as a whole to terrorists, but that recent cop-shooter video sure did come to mind, along with many other deadly, illegal-immigrant crimes. The loss of just one more innocent American life by an illegal is not worth this ongoing madness.

And, I'm not buying what any politician is trying to sell; I'm seeing with my own eyes and hearing with my own ears...and THAT I'm buying!

Fixed that for you .....again, you're the one who brought up the "fear mongering".
My only point was that if you are going to use fear mongering against the right (as you did), then at least admit its on YOUR side as well (as I have shown).

As to my "non contribution", you are more than entitled to your opinions. And just as you think mine are "non" contributing, I am sure you are well aware of my thoughts on yours.....

The military by actual law can't do anything.

Its optics.

Nothing more... nothing less.

So it is fearmongering?

We agree there? Okay good run along then!

The rest of this is just some pathetic attempt to label me a Democrat?
