That you could even post such egregious Liberal maundering tells me you may be posting on the wrong forum.

Conservativism =/= the kind of nonsense I have seen on this thread. Lock and load? Shoot to kill?

There’s a difference between being a conservative and sounding like Bull Connor’s Texan nephew.

I’m aware that I don’t sound like most of the people chanting in unison on this thread. But. Today’s conservative heresy is tomorrow’s conservative truth. I seem to recall that conservatives used to think that Eisenhower was some kind of communist agent (true story! look it up). It took a conservative heretic named Bill Buckley to shake our movement loose of that kind of nonsense. Maybe it’s time to do the same thing to the idea that to be conservative you want to expel people from the country who don’t talk and think like you do.

How about we just start with the people who are here illegally? Surely, you can’t be against that being the good “conservative” you claim you are.

This notion that we need to somehow accept things we disagree with is quite problematic. Can you make clear what we should and should not accept from the infinite multitude of things that people who "don't talk and think" like we do actually believe and act upon?

For instance, what if they don't buy into that whole "US Constitution" thingy? Is that alright with you? Should Conservatives accept that? Or what about all of our other laws? They don't believe in immigration laws, should we accept their not following any of the other laws based on our desire to be "tolerant?"

Should illegal aliens from any country around the world be allowed to do public business in their own language regardless of financial cost and profound misunderstandings? Should Conservatives accept that?

“Maybe it’s time to do the same thing to the idea that to be conservative you want to expel people from the country who don’t talk and think like you do.”

How one “thinks” is part and parcel of one’s culture. Americans think differently than others.
1. We are sovereign citizens.
2. Therefore, we regulate our own behavior so that government need not.
3. We take security in person and property as a given.

Sorry, but I must tell you that the illegal aliens living in America ARE CRIMINALS.

PS Try going to those Turd World ‘nations’ south of the border without entering legally, much less take a job.

PPS Ya won’t like what they do to your overly sympathetic person when they dump you in one of the Hell-On-Earth jails.
