MEXICO CITY Gov. Jerry Brown suggested Monday that Texas Gov. Rick Perrys ordering of National Guard troops to the U.S.-Mexico border to address the surge in border crossings is misguided, urging politicians instead to heed the religious call
to welcome the stranger in addressing the crisis.
This is a human problem, and it has been the religious call of all religions to welcome the stranger, and its in that spirit that I believe the clergy can call the United States, Mexico and all the players to perhaps a higher response than might otherwise happen, Brown said on the first full day of his trade mission to Mexico.

the “welcome the stranger” reference is a Christian theme.

Not exclusively.
Never mind the conflation of “stranger” with multitudes of invaders.

Furthermore, the Hebrew word “ger” in Leviticus 19:33-34 and Deuteronomy 10:19 (translated “stranger” in the King James and other Bibles) means someone staying temporarily; a sojourner, more like a tourist.

you don’t need to convince me. Brown can go to hell and he can take his god d***ed invaders with him.

I am not understanding this OPEN CALL from the libtards to DESTROY this nation!

I understand it. They finally have a clear shot at bringing down the greatest human-led force for good that the world has ever known. They are giddy with the success with which they are turning us into a Third World Country.

Gov. Jerry Brown suggested Monday that Texas Gov. Rick Perrys ordering of National Guard troops to the U.S.-Mexico border to address the surge in border crossings is misguidedThen he's only seeing part of the story. The kids that have come across the border are being cared for. The guard is there to help secure the border and slow down the influx. Otherwise, we'd be overrun and wouldn't be able as much assistance.
