CLEVELAND, Ohio -- The flood of Central American women and children crossing the border into the U.S. is not a refugee crisis, or a border crisis, it's an humanitarian crisis, created by the actions of U.S. citizens and inaction of their elected leaders.
While children have walked hundreds of miles, risking violence along the way as they try to escape it, Congress has hardly moved a foot on U.S. immigration reform and not at all on gun control.
How many of the politicians ranting about the children crossing the border have ever lifted a finger to restrict the free-low of U.S. guns being used about Central American drug gangs to terrorize the people now trying to escape into the U.S.?
How many of those trying to block the buses full of children being taken to shelters, smoked pot or snorted coke that had its origins in Honduras, El Salvador, Guatemala, Columbia, Mexico or U.S. drug fields controlled and harvested by gangs from those countries?
The U.S. has a humanitarian crises on its southern border right now because for decades it has had a leadership crises in Washington D.C. when it comes to gun control and immigration reform.
Put that in your pipe and smoke it Uncle Sam.

Not the us citizens. We have almost no say in what happens in this country and it is the fault of the the media owned by the government.
It is impossible to get your voice heard. The elected do not listen and dismiss criticism while those who do express dissent are hounded by the journos who are owned
The status quo is the left. Any dissent is quashed by them. Expressing any opinion that deviates from the left or the right is a truly revolutionary act.
Jeff, if you google the distance from Honduras to Texas you will see that it’s 1,420 miles. Do you really believe any one much less children with no money are walking it? If you do then I can see why you believe the rest of your B.S.

Jeff Darcy of the The Plain Dealer needs to spend 45 seconds looking at the above link... maybe that would give him a clue...
It was Eric Holder who was supplying those guns to the drug cartels... and NONE Of them had tracking devices on them.... Maybe 'Jeff' hasn't heard of Fast and Furious...
Jeff Darcy is apparently the dumbest man in the world. I believe were it not for spellcheck he’d have sent this incredibly dumb screed in using crayon.
It’s not US weapons being used. At least not privately sold one. We arm their military and their military arms the drug dealers. Their complete inability to govern stems from their obsession with socialism.
“I stopped reading after I saw the words, ‘Central American women and children.’” BS
I know how WE can”Solve”The”Border Crisis”!With The MILITIA!!!!!!!
bump
...and they blame America first...
There is just no way to cure stupid. And the gene pool is polluted.
By his logic its our fault for having a functioning economy, but then its always out fault. How the gun issue fits into this is unclear but I suspect he’s generally obsessed with the issue. Lets stop giving the illegals free health care, welfare, jobs and other services, stop offering dial 2 for spanish and see how long they stay.
You guys shut down two sides of the Common.
Above link states 4,000.
Hes saying we the US are ..the fire under their frying pan..
So the only logical action only reasonable action only rational action is
to jump from the frying pan into the fire?
if life in bad in their country.
they have the whole world to go illegally to yet they choose here
If we are the cause of their problem.. why are they coming...here...

This article discusses the fact that the border “crisis” was actually planned:
http://www.nationalreview.com/article/383159/obama-caused-border-disaster-andrew-c-mccarthy
And this ‘crisis’ is a planned invasion, albeit most of the invaders are not holding weapons other than diseases, until they get to their contacts in the US.
Another article by this idiot? What, you needed further proof that he’s a moron?
I heard someone interviewed on talk radio who said that there are a number of MS-13 gang youths amongst the “refugees.” The border patrol gives the illegals phones so they can call their parents and let them know they arrived safely, but these guys are recruiting and making other arrangements. The border patrol can’t do anything about it legally. What happened to the protection from terrorism that the NSA was supposed to provide by collecting all our phone calls and email messages?
