Progressive Chaos
The citizens of the United States get to say through their elected representatives what the nation’s immigration laws will be.The citizens get to demand of those employed by that government that such laws be predictably, consistently and properly enforced.
But how is a citizenry deciding who it lets into its country any different from an individual of that citizenry deciding who is admitted into his or her home?
To further the point you come home from work one day to find that another family has just up and moved in and when you call the police they refuse to evict your new roommates citing a policy that the mayor unilaterally decided upon laws to the contrary and requiring you to just live with and accept whomever it is that moves into your house.
Let that happen in your house and your neighbor’s house and everywhere up and down your block and it would be called Chaos.
Which is exactly what engulfs U.S. immigration policy at this very moment !
I wonder how long a banner that says we are here to stay would last in China before being tossed in prison? In Saudi Arabia they'd just behead you on the spot.
Progressives are not about Laws on Immigration but watch their heads spin when their beloved Government forces unwanted house guests into their home known as Illegal Aliens.
The progressive's hypercritical attitude to immigration has been the laughing stock of most European countries for quite some time.
What these sanctimonious pro-Pedro do-gooders seem to want is to wallow in the artificial warm glow of their smug self-righteousness while branding the immigrant filth with cattle irons and corralling them anywhere as long as it's far enough away so the noise and smell from the great unwashed doesn't interfere with their candlelit champaign dinner parties.
Isn't it ironic the Progressive Hollyweird Elites won't move any Illegal Aliens into their Gated Communities there in Communist California. Being that they want them in their homeland but not in their homes.
It must be the progressive's variation on the votes cast by proxy theme.
The progressive's PRO-PEDRO BRIGADE get the support of those established immigrants who can vote through being seen to be occupying the moral high ground by calling for the inrush of their fellow countrymen and women.
Exactly. Progressives are not concerned with the well being of the illegals just votes and there you have the Golf Clapping Progressive crowd being thrown under the bus by their own party whom favor an illegal vote over their's.
The Liberal/Labour bleeding-heart progressives here in the U.K., and indeed in most of left wing Europe are the same.
In France the 10s of 1000s of recently arrived immigrants have been confined to living in filthy, unhygienic temporary shanty towns .
That is temporary, as in permanent.
Conditions in these squalid camps are probably worse than what they left and violent national clashes often result in death as they did recently in a fight between Afghans ans Eritreans when 5 of them died.
Regardless of the inhuman conditions of the migrants most of the so called progressives who fought for their intake refuse to allow them to be relocated anywhere near the snooty parts of their cities.
Progressives seem to have the same double standards the world over.
The American Progressives don't look at the Illegal Aliens as people but as a political cause and as for caring for them that is the furthest thing from their mind because they are pawns in the Progressive game to push an agenda on transformation of a country.
This is a completely different question, the difference between a huge group of law abiding tax payers,(the dreamers) is completely different than hundreds of thousands of displaced war refugees, what if your country was completely demolished by two of the largest forces on the planet, what would you do when your living penniless on the street in some country that doesn’t respect your religion, you don’t even speak the language, all things things sound like your fault?
I think the people responsible for the war should be responsible for the reapportionment of the resources for that country after the war is complete, you know like WW2? These people should be protected as war refugees and then the parties responsible for them being war refugees should be forced to reconcile it.
You are a complete moron. I can’t stand arguing with troglodytes like you, what the f does that have to do with whether or not it is or isn’t these people’s fault there country is a war zone. Do you think that people who fled Germany and Poland and Egypt and Somalia had a choice? That’s the F—-ing point, it’s not their fault they are displaced. What r your brilliant guidelines to war refugees? What about no minded half wits who argue any point cause the guy they voted for said it regardless of value?
YOU are a lazy conservative POS, you won a lottery of skin colour and inherence, and now you have the audacity to say that hardworking people should be removed? Do you think your opinion has more relevance the fatter your gut gets?
Well they weren't allowed in the US if you paid any attention to the dates of WW2.
There weren't any brilliant guidelines to war refugees in WW2 so what changed could it have been the Progressives known as LBJ and possibly Ted Kennedy ?
The Immigration and Nationality Act of 1965 (H.R. 2580; Pub.L. 89–236, 79 Stat. 911, enacted June 30, 1968), also known as the Hart–Celler Act, changed the way quotas were allocated by ending the National Origins Formula that had been in place in the United States since the Emergency Quota Act of 1921.
There really is a question or two that you should answer.
Why is it the Progressive Elite in California especially Hollyweird are not building housing for the illegals on their property ? They are about Open Borders so why not welcome them in with open arms?
Open the flood gates and wave the immigrants through, as long as they stay well away from my neighborhood.
The progressive double standards call for the free flow of ''Johnny Foreigner'' but demand the introduction of legislation that confines them to the inner city ghettos areas well away from the leafy lanes of suburbia where they live divorced from reality.
The citizens of the United States don’t get to pick anything that happens to anybody in their own country. They rely on a group of founders who set up plans to ensure the important parts of the country’s government remain in tact, whilst anyone in the world who yearns to be free from oppression, can apply and join. The constitution was never written to protect the biased views of any religion or political party. American laws can progress along with American society but all the while we must endure the rhetoric of organizations that seek the limit and splendour of a free democratic society. Something that Americans have not had in years.
I don’t think the decisions to remove a blanket portion part of the population is necessarily up to the party in power. Should the people that were here first get to decide anything? Does the greater portion of the population get to decide? Does a rotten tangerine scumbag treason get to decide? Which of these makes more sence?
People must begin to understand that the United States can no longer accept the wandering masses from the failed nations of the world and that their presence is placing a massive financial burden on our economy as well as causing dangerous civil unrest.
The so called war refugee Muslims are refused entry to the oil rich Arab states including Saudi Arabia and other nations such as Russia that were involved in the Middle East conflict.
For instance, no Muslim immigrants are allowed in Japan, Russia or China.
Insofar that illegal means '' CONTRARY TO, OR FORBIDDEN BY LAW, all illegal aliens are by definition criminals.
Those working here illegally do not, and indeed cannot pay the just and lawful taxes.
Those self employed illegal businessmen leech off the bounty of a buoyant economy which enjoys relative political stability but put nothing into the nation's coffers.
So the dreamers aren’t putting a burden on the state, they aren’t part of a dangerous cult, and I think if they were in the country illegally, every single person who employed them and used their labour should be prosecuted and deported as well. Good to go?
That’s the same, sick fuckn argument that caused Americans with rifles and swords to attack and commit genocide on women and children in the 1700s. You gotta give your a head a shake nimrod if you think your allowed to remove taxpayers from their state for the crime of being an immigrant. YOUR A FUCKN IMMIGRANT. How about go back to your grandparents country of origin, cause we don’t want YOU anymore.
Why don't you take your pots, pans and fleas and fuck off back to wherever you sneaked in from you ''steeking''GREASERpeeg.
The immigrant filth made shitholes out of their own countries so it is an undeniable truth that if dirtbags like YOU come here in sufficient numbers they'll turn America into the same sort of shithole which they made and then abandoned.
You are going to have to work on your grammar and comprehension.
In the context of the sentence in which you used the word your, should have been spelt, you're, as in you are.
Due to the fact that you cannot read nor understand English properly you somehow thought that I was advocating that established, taxpaying immigrants should be deported.
I did not state that, and if you were not a filthy, half wit, benighted greaser you wouldn't have made that mistake.
I repeat shithead, fuck off back to your cesspit of a country and wallow in your nation's self made festering shit.
We chased you off of your hunting grounds and turned a country made up of dozens of primitive, warring, nomadic redskins who didn't know the fist thing about hygiene or sanitation, into the most powerful nation on Earth.
Raw sewage ran between the maze of randomly positioned wigwams and sickness was treated by 'witch doctors who shook a few buffalo bones at the infirm and chanted, honkoo bonkoo goolie goolie boolie boolie a few times;- very scientific.
We permit you lot to mix with civilized citizens providing you don't drink too much fire water, get drunk and start wrecking the place.
You're a dying 'breed' there 'breed', so make the most of it while you can.
Now, chief, get out your tomahawk, put on your war paint, do a war dance and go scalp a few Cherokees.
Nobody is denying what your ancestors have done. But I will deny that you have some sort of dominion over freedom. You think kicking out a million people out of the country is going to help the country. How? You think touting nationalistic propaganda is smart? How? I think that if your nationalistic god party even touches the dreamers, they’ll be attacked relelentlessly. If it weren’t for two separate affairs and the fact that your leader is a treasonous traitor who worked in league with Russians and propped up the mobs businesses and cleaned their money, I would say you might have a chance. The cure is obvious and the majority of countries have already taken the pill, all of your half witted barley coherent ideas have an expiry date now.
If you really were somebody worthy of anything why are you letting the latinos take over baseball or the blacks to take over football, they already own basketball. Why is it your not getting paid millions of dollars to spread Republican Propaganda? Could it be your just a puny, talentless, self important, self aggrandizing, priveledged, self righteous cunt? Get the fuck out of my country you European Cunt.
@.Geronimo;- Now listen here chief, you really need to watch your language or you'll not be allowed into the happy hunting grounds.
Language is just a tool. What matters is the intent behind it. For example, your own language is deliberately provocative and insulting towards minorities and those of colour. When you successfully elicit the angry reaction you are looking for from others, you expect them to be punished while you get to continue acting like the racist neo-Nazi most regular contributors know you are.
Need I say more, apparently yes, it wants me to keep on writing, but as anyone can plainly see, there is no point. It is people like you who are slowing the productivity and of this nation. People and those like you now have an expiry date, and I can’t wait till we clean out the fridge.
Any person who hired or used labour, when and where it can be proven that person had prior knowledge of an illegal or illicit act is considered to be complicit in those acts, and punishment should be comparable and fair.
Furthermore, if I’m making interjections in my discourse and conversation it means, I’m writing in point by point method and I don’t have to maintain conjugative or pluralistic grammatical methods to make my point.
The big red line underneath should have tipped you off that you aren't using a real word. Indeed, it probably would have, had you not been frantically jerking yourself off to the fact you can use hate speech on the internet without being arrested.
How was it legal when your European ancestors came to my country and murdered my daughters and sons in cold blood? what gives you the right as a political party to deny the human rights of these people. You let them in the country. You then used their cheap labour to prop up your country’s economy, and then you think after all this, YOU get to decide where these people call home? You are deluded. Stop calling people by whatever political team you think they are on, you sound like......
