Let's Talk About Open Border
American Rattlesnake ^ | May 12, 2016 | Gerard Perry

Until recently, most people in Europe and the United States-at least, those of us who had grown up and lived our lives as citizens-gave little thought to national immigration policy. Unless you had a vested interest in the issue, either as an immigrant yourself or someone who profited from specific immigration policies, e.g. as an immigration attorney, a member of a group like LULAC, the NCLR, or someone who worked for a VOLAG, the likelihood that this was a galvanizing domestic issue for you would be very slim.

However, with the continuing flood of unaccompanied minors across the nation’s southern border and decision by the Obama administration to shun most proactive immigration enforcement-as well as give administrative amnesty to large swathes of illegal immigrants-to claim that this is an unimportant or ancillary subject of public interest is an increasingly untenable position...

I don’t think Mexico would allow an open border.

Why do we have to have open borders, but they don’t?

For example, why can’t I just come with hundreds of my extended family and, without invitation or legal immigration and just squat on, oh let us say ... Stanley Park in Vancouver, B.C., just start putting up initially log cabins, perhaps chopping down the trees in the park? Or how about the Island of Tahiti? Just go there and “settle” any place in Tahiti, me and 100 plus of my extended family?

In fact, borderless states, e.g. just go with like 250 people from my office in California and then setup a community “as is” and “no borders stopping us” on the island of Kauai? You know, just walk in, clear some of the lush tropics and put up our settlements, perhaps just come in the thousands, tens of thousands, and say, “Hi! We are just going to live here! This is now our island.”

Right?

How about we just go to where those Mayan or Aztec ruins are, in the thousands, just walk in, and say, “I love these ruins! Now this place will be our new home! That room in the pyramid will be my new kitchen!”...

Wht not? Just drive our cars right into and across Mexico and just squat right there in, oh, some resort area in Mexico? Or drive into Banff, Albrrta, how about all along the “shores” of Lake Louise, Canada, and announce, “yup! here we are! And this lake has a great view for our new home and our cabins we will be setting up!”

... borderless world, yes?

Unless you’ve lived in California during the last 50 years, then you think about it all the time.

Exactly.

I think the closer the country moves to majority-minority status, the more public discussion of this topic you'll see-Trump is an effect-not the cause-of this process.

You can't look at what's happened to California and argue with a straight face that mass 3rd world immigration is beneficial to the broader society.

Open Border- John Kerry:

He had a fire hydrant moved from the front of his (or his wife’s) Boston abode...

There are different stories as to why, but most agree that this is Kerry’s highest accomplishment.

Interesting. BUMP Shiva Fan and Al’s comment (at your site). Thanks for attending. We’ve been plundered from within….

by domestic enemies and globalist criminals. Invading hordes given aid and comfort continually flow across the border to complete the disintegration of the republic.

Let’s talk prison sentences.
