We're doing more than that. We're creating desperate exploitable citizens who are in competition with cheaper foreign labor, automation and all of the illegals we take into the country.
Then to top that all off, we gimp our own people by not even bothering to teach them the Metric System in their formative years. Dollars to donuts that 95% or more of the people sitting in "concentration camps" right now know how to use the Metric System and have been using it all of their lives. - SIX

Yup - the f*cking metric system! That's the real problem! = GSTRING

Wow, GSTTRING, it looks like you missed a whole triple ice cream banana split and focused on the cherry on top!

Of course not! You're just spouting generalities which lack subtance!

Our system allows 675,000 LEGAL immigrants into this country every year.

Quote:

Hmm... well, I've written more than "a couple" of pithy sentences, but YOU refused to read them!

Importantly, I traced our moral culpability for the current immigration crisis all the way back to over a century of repeatedly invading, destabilizing, and overthrowing nascent democratic movements to our south, movements which were attempting land reform, education, higher wages, independent foreign and economic policy etc. We've ALWAYS been on the side of our banks, our corporations, and their internal elites and their military juntas, and this didn't happen just once but over and over, and is still happening today (Venezuela, Cuba, Honduras - thank you Hillary Clinton for that one! ... Brazil ...) As such, we have thwarted each nation's natural political and economic development and have a huge responsibility for how they are today. Of course, we have no idea how things would have turned out without our meddling, maybe better, maybe worse, but at least WE wouldn't be in the chain of events. So the FIRST thing we need to do is STOP MEDDLING IN THEIR INTERNAL POLITICS.

Quote:

WHY for god's sake do we think we can, or should, take care of "everyone else"? - SIGNY
Who is "we?" The phony big bad you're trying to create?- CC

If you listen to most of the DNC candidates, and a lot of our Democratic politicians in CA, Texas, New Mexico, and New York City, that's exactly what "we" should be doing. Our fearless leader, for example, Gavin Newsom, thinks we (Californians) should be footing the medical bills for illegal aliens here in CA, and this will be funded by taxes in citizens. Now if THAT isn't showing preference for illegals over citizens, I don;t knwo what is.

How many immigrants have become successful, valuable US citizens that you/other citizens have benefitted from having in this country?- CC

Yanno, when you keep on throwing this ad-hominum up, in spite of the fact that I have addressed it at length many times, that tells me you're just a tool. I have NEVER hired an illegal alien housekkeeper or gardener or workman. I insist on not only seeing a driver's license and a Social Security card (which I check on e-Verify) but (for our nannies) native-English speaking skills and car insurance. I pay Social Security and unemployment. My current gardener was a homless citizen when I first employed him (he's now, fortunately, in assisted housing) I don't go to Home Depot to pick up day laborers.

Yanno, when you make general comments like that, you lose all credibility.

You CLEARLY don't know anything about the immigration process, or the economic problems that illegal immigrants cause workers here in this country, or crazy infrastrucural demands (housing, water, schools, healthcare, transportation) that a few extra million people can place on a city, or the dysfunctional policies that're being promoted by most Democratic candidates and many Democratic politicians.

I've been extremely specific. I know the numbers, I know the facts. You? You just type surious generalities and when you ARE specific (like your repeated accusation that I hire illegals) you're just plain wrong, or you're just plain lying.

When you have something SPECIFIC to say ... oh, like how many immigrant YOU would take in, and what the criteria would be for admitting them, and how you would stem the flow, and resolve the initial cause of mass migrations, and eliminate our moral culpability, and how you would either fold illegals into our economic system without causing employment disclocation or deport them over time ... well then, please feel free to post something useful!

If they're so desperate for something better - for someplace not so controlled by local gangs gunning FOR THEM - why not go a few towns over? Or just across their borders into the next country over? Or seek asykum in Mexico? Why will the US and ONLY the US do?

Here's the reason. It's like dieting. If you're not hungry enough to eat a celery stalk, you're not hungry.

Or, since I have to be explicit for the lame of mind, if you're not desperate enough to go ANYwhere, you're not desperate.

ETA - So let me outline the story for you. People are putting their kids at risk by trying to cross illegally not because they're 'desperate' for anything better; and not because they're seeking legal status in the US. It's a different motivation. They're hoping to hit the jackpot - to cross undetected into the US, and to disappear into the background.

And if democrats don't do anything different, how are they any better?

Here's the generic definition from Homeland Security:
Quote:

A refugee is a person outside his or her country of nationality who is unable or unwilling to return to his or her country of nationality because of persecution or a well-founded fear of persecution on account of race, religion, nationality, membership in a particular social group, or political opinion. An asylee is a person who meets the definition of refugee and is already present in the United States or is seeking admission at a port of entry. Refugees are required to apply for Lawful Permanent Resident (“green card”) status one year after being admitted, and asylees may apply for green card status one year after their grant of asylum.
Are you following so far? There's some big words in there.
(*BTW, I hope you've noticed there's no spot for economic refugees.)
Take that definition and change it to this "on account of ... political opinion."
Clear enough?

US Government Tops All for Creating Refugees
Eric Zuesse
June 30, 2019

On June 19th, Statistica headlined “Number of forcibly displaced people reaches new high”, and when one looks at the data, one finds an even bigger story which stands behind those numbers:

This new report from the United Nations documents Statistica’s headline, and it proves that America’s regime-change operations have actually created around half of the world’s refugees. It proves that America’s penchant for invading and trying to overthrow the governments that its billionaires want to replace (“regime-change”) has been by far the biggest of all single causes of refugees worldwide, vastly higher than any other government. Regardless of how bad those other governments might possibly be, the US regime is far worse — at least as being the cause, the creator, of the world’s refugee problems.

Consider the countries that the US regime has recently regime-changed or attempted to:

The US regime invaded Afghanistan in 2001, Iraq in 2003, Syria in 2012-2019, and has been applying, in order to overthrow the Government of Venezuela, strangulating economic sanctions. All of those four target-countries (Syria, Venezuela, Iraq, and Afghanistan) lead the list of nations that are bleeding the most refugees. The US regime’s “regime-change” operations abroad are therefore certainly the leading cause of the world’s refugee-crisis.

That’s the big news in the new UN report, though it is news that the report itself ignores.

The biggest of these crises in 2018 were Syria and Venezuela, which were the US regime’s most recent regime-change operations. But Afghanistan and Iraq are also among the top bleeders of refugees — even now, over 15 years after the US regime had invaded them.

On 26 January 2019, Britain’s Independent headlined “Venezuela crisis: Former UN rapporteur says US sanctions are killing citizens: ‘Modern-day economic sanctions and blockades are comparable with medieval sieges of towns’” ...

But, I knew that already. And now, you do too.

At home, defense spending crowds out funds for everything else a prosperous economy and a healthy society need. Abroad, it has led us to become a country reflexively reliant on the military and one quite different from what we think ourselves to be or, I believe, wish to be.

For many years, the United States has increasingly relied on military strength to achieve its foreign policy aims. In doing so, it has paid too little heed to the issues that military power cannot solve, to the need for diplomatic capabilities at least as strong as military ones and, in particular, to the necessity of multilateral problem-solving — as slow and frustrating as it often is — to address current threats. Sadly, it took a rash and unbelievably unwise decision by the president to throw away the Iran nuclear deal for members of Congress and the public to begin to appreciate what tough, patient diplomacy can achieve.

We are now at the point of allocating too large a portion of the federal budget to defense as compared to domestic needs, tolerating too much spending that doesn’t buy useful capability, accumulating too much federal debt, and yet not acquiring a forward-looking, twenty-first-century military built around new cyber and space technologies. We have become complacent and strategically flabby about adapting to a profoundly altered world. Major change will require a quality of leadership we haven’t seen in a long time, from men and women in the White House, Congress, and the Pentagon who are respected for their knowledge and national security experience and who are willing to pay a political price for what must be done. Even then the process will be tough, slow, and painful, but it is surely overdue.

The point I made - if you could actually read and be honest about what you read - was that we all benefit from LEGAL immigration, the kind you benefit from directly, the kind that you have in your personal history.

OK, GSTRING, let me answer this question as you asked it: NO, I HAVE NEVER HIRED A NON-NATIVE NANNY. I needed someone whose English was far better than just "getting by".

If you allow "family reunification" or "chained migration" you have a tendency to allow people who simply want to take advantage of the system. We see that here in the Chinese community, where husband and wife immigrate, then sponsor mom and set her up in their home, then (once the government stops looking at whether mom is being properly supported by spnosor, typically a little over three years) set "mom" up on welfare,even tho she's living in a milion dollar house and driving a mercedes. My chinese friends filled me in on that.

OTOH, if you allow only "the best and the brightest", then you are literally robbing other nations of THEIR best and brightest, causing a "brain drain". Then on top of that, like in any other sector immigrants will work for less. Quite often it's not that technical positions can't be filled by Americans who will do the job just as well if not better, it's just that companies don't want to spend $50,000 for an engineer when they could pay someone $9/hr to (say) write the Boeing 747 MAX software. (whichbtw is what happened). Why pay an American nurse $30,000 when you can pay a Philippina doctor $25,000 to do the same job?

I've probably conducted over 250 interviews for technical positions in my professional life, of both native and foreign-born. Maybe we had really good screening procedures bt I didn't see any overall difference in technical skill, altho I HAVE noticed that some Chinese women were super-hierarchy-conscious and tended to suck up to the boss (me) even as they were knifing their peers and underlings in the back. NOT a good trait!

This just broke: a secret Facebook group of 9,500 CBP officers discussed making a GoFundMe for officers to harm myself & Rep. Escobar during our visit to CBP facilities & mocked migrant deaths. This isn’t about “a few bad eggs.” This is a violent culture.

Inside the Secret Border Patrol Facebook Group Where Agents Joke About Migrant Deaths and Post Sexist Memes
The three-year-old group, which has roughly 9,500 members, shared derogatory comments about Latina lawmakers who plan to visit a controversial Texas detention facility on Monday, calling them “scum buckets” and “hoes.”


https://www.propublica.org/article/...social&utm_source=twitter&am
p;utm_campaign=buffer


More from the report:

Created in August 2016, the Facebook group is called “I’m 10-15” and boasts roughly 9,500 members from across the country. (10-15 is Border Patrol code for “aliens in custody.”) The group described itself, in an online introduction, as a forum for “funny” and “serious” discussion about work with the patrol. “Remember you are never alone in this family,” the introduction said
ProPublica received images of several recent discussions in the 10-15 Facebook group and was able to link the participants in those online conversations to apparently legitimate Facebook profiles belonging to Border Patrol agents, including a supervisor based in El Paso, Texas, and an agent in Eagle Pass, Texas. ProPublica has so far been unable to reach the group members who made the postings.

ProPublica contacted three spokespeople for CBP in regard to the Facebook group and provided the names of three agents who appear to have participated in the online chats. CBP hasn’t yet responded.
The postings, in his view, reflect what “seems to be a pervasive culture of cruelty aimed at immigrants within CBP. This isn’t just a few rogue agents or ‘bad apples.’”
And in early 2018, federal investigators found a raft of disturbing and racist text messages sent by Border Patrol agents in southern Arizona after searching the phone of Matthew Bowen, an agent charged with running down a Guatemalan migrant with a Ford F-150 pickup truck. The texts, which were revealed in a court filing in federal court in Tucson, described migrants as “guats,” “wild ass shitbags,” “beaners” and “subhuman.” The messages included repeated discussions about burning the migrants up.

And about AOC

Members of the Border Patrol Facebook group were not enthused about the tour, noting that Ocasio-Cortez, a Democrat from Queens, had compared Border Patrol facilities to Nazi concentration camps. Escobar is a freshman Democrat representing El Paso.

One member encouraged Border Patrol agents to hurl a “burrito at these bitches.” Another, apparently a patrol supervisor, wrote, “Fuck the hoes.” “There should be no photo ops for these scum buckets,” posted a third member.

Perhaps the most disturbing posts target Ocasio-Cortez. One includes a photo illustration of her engaged in oral sex at an immigrant detention center. Text accompanying the image reads, “Lucky Illegal Immigrant Glory Hole Special Starring AOC.”

Another is a photo illustration of a smiling President Donald Trump forcing Ocasio-Cortez’s head toward his crotch. The agent who posted the image commented: “That’s right bitches. The masses have spoken and today democracy won.”

Time to bust out the guillotines and execute some Nazis.

FWIW I don't doubt there are racist, sexist - let's include homophobic and xenophobic as well - agents and supervisory people. And whoever they are, if their actions ON THE JOB reflect that, they should be investigated, and if guilty, punished up to and including dismissal.

But I'd need to see more than 2, or 3, or a 'small number' of posts out of a group of 9,500 members (who undoubtedly have on average more than one post each) before I'd call it a 'pervasive culture'.

Or, if we're going to use ProPublica's metrics, we could call this site a terrorist nest because of the threats SECOND had made towards Trump. Per capita, we're far worse here.

Here's the generic definition from Homeland Security:

A refugee is a person outside his or her country of nationality who is unable or unwilling to return to his or her country of nationality because of persecution or a well-founded fear of persecution on account of race, religion, nationality, membership in a particular social group, or political opinion. An asylee is a person who meets the definition of refugee and is already present in the United States or is seeking admission at a port of entry. Refugees are required to apply for Lawful Permanent Resident (“green card”) status one year after being admitted, and asylees may apply for green card status one year after their grant of asylum.
Are you following so far? There's some big words in there.
(*BTW, I hope you've noticed there's no spot for economic refugees.)
Take that definition and change it to this "on account of ... political opinion."
Clear enough?

Goodbye, kind world (George Monbiot) - In common with all those generations which have contemplated catastrophe, we appear to be incapable of understanding what confronts us.


"At the later news conference, Castro said word of the toilet incident surfaced as the Congressional delegation met with 15 to 20 migrant women — mostly mothers separated from their children — at Hondo Pass to discuss conditions at the facility.

"In fact, one of the women said that she was told by an agent to drink out of the toilet," he explained."

Claims were made by one woman.

I think the focus should be to determine if, in fact, clean drinking water is freely available to all detainees at all times. Because it's a serious health and safety item, that appears to me to be the most salient and important fact to determine. That should be able to be done by a simple inspection of the facilities. Either there are drinking water utilities wherever detainees are kept, and they're working, or not.


BTW, out of all the democratic candidates, Castro seemed extremely biased towards Hispanics and dismissive of everyone else. The only topic he expounded on, and with great passion, was whatever was related to Hispanics. As one example out of many, when asked why he was running for President, he said proudly: "“In fact, you know, my first visit after I announced my candidacy wasn’t to Iowa or New Hampshire. It was to San Juan, Puerto Rico ...”"

Way to stick it to the gringos, Mr. Castro.

America admitted 1.18 Legal Immigrants in 2016.
There were 10.7 Million Illegal Aliens in America in 2016 - apparently 52% of them from Mexico. This is down from 12.2% in 2007, since the Rock-The-Vote Recession sent the Mexicans back home in droves.
In 2010 and 2011, almost 400,000 Deportations were performed, and total of 2.5 million from 2009-2015.

I don't see any shortage of folk wanting to enter America.

Somebody mentioned 675,000 Legal Immigrants last year. If true, that is more than the current populations of Wyoming, and Vermont, and also the 2010 population of North Dakota.

I heard that AOC claimed she was abused by CBP.

However, word is that she waltzed into the CBP Station, and went right up to and in the face of CBP Agents and yelled and screamed and abused them, without provocation. The video is reportedly in the possession of CBP, but many hope the video can be released - maybe Trump can de-classify it.

Why are migrant children dying in U.S. custody? At least seven children are known to have died in immigration custody since last year, after almost a decade in which no child reportedly died while in the custody of U.S. Customs and Border Protection.

The string of cases continue to raise questions around the conditions in which migrant children are being kept. "Children are not like adults. They get sick more quickly and each hour of delay can be associated with serious complications," says a doctor.

www.nbcnews.com/news/latino/why-are-migrant-children-dying-u-s-custody
-n1010316


The straight answer is that if Trump runs childcare like a dog pound, dogs and children will die.

Hey butthead ... did you finally get some advice on internet libel? Then maybe you should know that in light of your LONG HISTORY of defaming me (and other people around here) your nudge-nudge-wink-wink insinuations aren't going to help you.


You can't seem to separate my criticism of AOC from a defense of Trump. My beef with AOC is that she's an idiot pretending to be a socialist. I think her proposed policies mostly suck and won't solve the wealth gap.

But yanno, this doesn't have to be an either-or choice! I can be critical of both her AND Trump, right? I only agree with Trump on three things, remember?

Any death under USA custody is one too many, but let's be realistic about this: Trump is no worse than Obama. You're just bitching because, yanno, Trump!

Hey @ssh*le, remember that time you said I wanted to see innocent civilians bombed? No? Well, the Internet does. Your long history of threatening me and other posters here is duly noted and logged. I'm sure any court will take that behavior into consideration, especially since no one here has ever threatened you.

Don't spout that nonsense about one death is too many. The majority of American voters don't care about 1 death or 1 million deaths. They don't care. They never have. They never will. Changing Presidents does not change that prisons and jails throughout the US are continuously plagued by surges in mortality rates due to varying degrees of underfunding, understaffing, negligence and a system inadequately in place to address serious mental healthcare and medical issues of individuals caught within the system. It is the American way. Fly the flag on the 4th of July, tomorrow. That, the majority of voters care about. Prisoner deaths? Not so much.

I think there are a number of Trump supporters who, on the inside, are ok with these deaths because they think of them as savages, less than human, "it'll teach the others a lesson!"

I tend not to get "bent" about a politician's personal foibles, more about their policies. As you said, it was a cheap shot. One cheap shot for another. Don't hyperfocus on small points. That's just diversionary.

HAHAHAHAHA!!!!

It's a truism that if you want to "stop" ppl from doing something, you punish them.
If you want people to "do" something, you reward them.

How in god's name do you set up a "reward" system that stops people from illegally crossing the border?

Another Einstein checks in. I dunno, geenius, just off the top of my head maybe you use the carrot to get people to legally cross the border? That's what you want, right? Unless of course, you don't want that as well.

Don't freak - that will never happen with this admin. They don't want ANY immigrants from Mexico on down either, so you're "safe."

Are you insane?

You think a carrot is needed to get people to want to enter America?

Can you name one single country in the world that does NOT have people waiting in line to enter America?

America admitted 1.18 Legal Immigrants in 2016.
There were 10.7 Million Illegal Aliens in America in 2016 - apparently 52% of them from Mexico. This is down from 12.2% in 2007, since the Rock-The-Vote Recession sent the Mexicans back home in droves.
In 2010 and 2011, almost 400,000 Deportations were performed, and total of 2.5 million from 2009-2015.

I don't see any shortage of folk wanting to enter America.

Somebody mentioned 675,000 Legal Immigrants last year. If true, that is more than the current populations of Wyoming, and Vermont, and also the 2010 population of North Dakota.

Trump Ends Asylum Protections For Most Migrants At US-Mexico Border
In what we suspect will be immediately greeted by an avalanche of "we're a nation of (legal) immigrants" and calls of 'racism' and 'hitler', AP reports that the Trump administration on Monday moved to end asylum protections for most Central American migrants.

According to a new rule published in the Federal Register, asylum seekers who pass through another country first will be ineligible for asylum at the U.S. southern border.

The rule, expected to go into effect Tuesday, also applies to children who have crossed the border alone.

AP does note, however, that there are some exceptions:

If someone has been trafficked, if the country the migrant passed through did not sign one of the major international treaties that govern how refugees are managed (though most Western countries have signed them)...

or if an asylum-seeker sought protection in a country but was denied, then a migrant could still apply for U.S. asylum.


The new rule also will apply to the initial asylum screening, known as a "credible fear" interview, at which migrants must prove they have credible fears of returning to their home country. It applies to migrants who are arriving to the U.S., not those who are already in the country.

By way of background, things have escalated quite dramatically in the last decade:

During the budget year for 2009, there were 35,811 asylum claims, and 8,384 were granted.

During 2018 budget year, there were 162,060 claims filed, and 13,168 were granted.

An awful lot of people making specious claims

Quote:

Immigration courts are backlogged by more than 800,000 cases, meaning many people won't have their asylum claims heard for years despite move judges being hired.

As AP notes, the policy is almost certain to face a legal challenge, and we suspect some judge somewhere in California is already drafting the order to strike down this policy, so don't hold your breath for any further slowdown in illegal border crossings.

Trump had a plan back in April, but then he denied he had a plan to get around the courts: Judiciary Democrats seek details on Trump’s reported offer to pardon border chief

04/16/2019 04:25 PM EDT

Top Democrats on the House Judiciary Committee requested information Tuesday related to President Donald Trump’s reported offer to pardon a top border official if he acted illegally to block asylum seekers.

Multiple media outlets reported Friday that Trump earlier this month told Customs and Border Protection Commissioner Kevin McAleenan he'd pardon him if he broke the law to deny migrants the ability to petition for asylum. It wasn’t clear whether the president intended the remark as a joke, and Trump denied later that day on Twitter that he "offered pardons to Homeland Securi[t]y personnel in case they broke the law."

Nobody knows what Trump's plans are, not even Trump.

"Trump Fans the Flames of a Racial Fire"

Mr. Trump ritually denies any racial animus or motivations. His fight against illegal immigration, he says, is only about securing the border and protecting the country.

“I am the least racist person you have ever met,” he has said more than once. But he does not go out of his way to avoid looking like he is, and his string of Twitter posts on Sunday left his own advisers unable or unwilling to defend him. None of six spokespeople for the White House or his campaign initially responded to requests for comment.

One of the only administration officials who was already booked for the Sunday talk shows, Mark Morgan, the acting commissioner of Customs and Border Protection, made clear he wanted no part of it. “You’re going to have to ask the president what he means by those specific tweets,” he said on “Face the Nation” on CBS.

Other presidents have played racial politics or indulged in stereotypes. Secret tapes of Lyndon B. Johnson and Richard M. Nixon show them routinely making virulently racist statements behind closed doors. Mr. Nixon’s Southern strategy was said to be aimed at disenchanted whites. Ronald Reagan was accused of coded racial appeals for talking so much about “welfare queens.”

Mr. Trump’s history on race has been well documented, from his days as a developer settling a Justice Department lawsuit over discrimination in renting apartments to his public agitation during the Central Park Five case in New York. Jack O’Donnell, the former president of Trump Plaza Hotel and Casino in Atlantic City, later wrote that Mr. Trump openly disparaged others based on race, complaining, for example, that he did not want black men managing his money.

“Trump has not only always been a racist, but anyone around him who denies it, is lying,” Mr. O’Donnell said on Sunday. “Donald Trump makes racist comments all the time. Once you know him, he speaks his mind about race very openly.”

You are wrong, again. https://federalregister.gov/d/2019-15246 says it has NOT been published and it is NOT official until tomorrow: "This document is unpublished. It is scheduled to be published on 07/16/2019. Once it is published it will be available on this page in an official form. Until then, you can download the unpublished PDF version."

Immigrant rights advocates vowed to challenge a new "racist" and "patently unlawful" policy from the Trump administration—set to take effect Tuesday—that aims to block many refugees from being eligible for asylum at the U.S. southern border.
