No, all immigrants are not the same.

The problem is that the open border advocates don’t want immigrants vetted. They want all 8.5 billion people to be able to come to America if they so wish.

Too many Americans don’t care about some things because it doesn’t affect them personally. When something affects them in a negative way, some wake up....a little. They can’t see the big picture.

That’s because they’re either willfully or unwillingly ignorant.

Americans have adjusted to the new normal.
Acting white is out.

Because the people who advocate for open borders are doing strictly for money or political reasons.

No. 1 Problem....The Dems own the media.

I can't believe the Dems are questioning dumping Colbert as being a political move.....cuz that acknowledges him as being one of the Dem's goons.

A law-and-order candidate might do really well. Even in California.

I truly believe that nothing will ever be done about this. Any attempt to do anything is “racist.” So we get used to it. We put bars up on our windows. We stop going out at night. We step over the homeless people on the sidewalk. We get used to asking store employees to unlock stuff for us, or we just order from Amazon instead...and hope a porch pirate doesn’t steal the package before we can get to it.

Those with money will keep fleeing to neighborhoods where it’s not happening yet. Again and again if necessary. Those without money will just suffer and put up with it. If we were going to “do anything about” this, we would have done it long ago, before things got this bad.

Of course, someday there will be no place left for those with money to flee. But by then it will be too late.

I saw all this happen to my home city of Los Angeles. Nobody “did anything” about it but flee. We have turned into a country of fleeing people. The criminals, the lowlifes, the illegals, they all have more rights than Americans.

God help us is all I can say.

“from poor countries like my own, Venezuela”

You voted for socialism, so move back to your “like my own” a deal with what you created.

Easier just to get out and leave the city to the savages - which has happened all across the U.S.

Any complaints are instantly slapped down with screams of racism, xenophobia and White Supremacism.

Who needs that? The government is on their side and supports them against you - as they destroy our schools, parks and living spaces.

There will be a mass exodus from New York City after Madman Momdani is elected and starts implementing his Communist policies - including by the very ones who supported him.

Most Americans are civilized, polite and kind, they have jobs, kids and homes that need to be taken care of, they trust the police and politicians to do the right thing and deal with the animals that look to destroy this country. Some day that trust will be eroded to the point that nice people will be forced to take matters into their own hands.

Good old “Creeping Socialism”: creeping crime, creeping drug use, fomented by liberal policies. Nobody has mentioned the old saw about “frog in the slowly boiling water” but that seems to be what’s happening.

The sheep generally do not like the sheepdog. He looks a lot like the wolf. He has fangs and the capacity for violence. The difference, though, is that the sheepdog must not, can not and will not ever harm the sheep. Any sheep dog who intentionally harms the lowliest little lamb will be punished and removed. The world cannot work any other way, at least not in a representative democracy or a republic such as ours.

Still, the sheepdog disturbs the sheep. He is a constant reminder that there are wolves in the land. They would prefer that he didn’t tell them where to go, or give them traffic tickets, or stand at the ready in our airports in camouflage fatigues holding an M-16. The sheep would much rather have the sheepdog cash in his fangs, spray paint himself white, and go, “Baa.”

.......

Here is how the sheep and the sheepdog think differently. The sheep pretend the wolf will never come, but the sheepdog lives for that day. After the attacks on September 11, 2001, most of the sheep, that is, most citizens in America said, “Thank God I wasn’t on one of those planes.” The sheepdogs, the warriors, said, “Dear God, I wish I could have been on one of those planes. Maybe I could have made a difference.” When you are truly transformed into a warrior and have truly invested yourself into warriorhood, you want to be there. You want to be able to make a difference.

There is nothing morally superior about the sheepdog, the warrior, but he does have one real advantage. Only one. And that is that he is able to survive and thrive in an environment that destroys 98 percent of the population. There was research conducted a few years ago with individuals convicted of violent crimes. These cons were in prison for serious, predatory crimes of violence: assaults, murders and killing law enforcement officers. The vast majority said that they specifically targeted victims by body language: slumped walk, passive behavior and lack of awareness. They chose their victims like big cats do in Africa, when they select one out of the herd that is least able to protect itself.

Some people may be destined to be sheep and others might be genetically primed to be wolves or sheepdogs. But I believe that most people can choose which one they want to be, and I’m proud to say that more and more Americans are choosing to become sheepdogs.


“and I’m proud to say that more and more Americans are choosing to become sheepdogs.”

Liberal white women. Democrats, public education, and trash immigrant culture.
