Liberal Meltdown in Connecticut After Students Chant ‘Build That Wall’
Lifezette ^ | 11/17/16

**SNIP**

"I can tell you that they are taking it seriously," said Steve Ginsburg of the regional ADL. "We're focused, like the school is, on ensuring that this is a learning experience and that those who were hurt and offended receive the appropriate apologies."

Tomlinson explains: "On the campaign trail, Trump stirred up support from white nationalists, prompting others to fear his tenure."

Boughton, rumored to be a GOP candidate for Connecticut governor in 2018, later felt forced to explain his outrage on Twitter. The Danbury mayor said the reason the chant was wrong was because his team and city are "diverse." He also tweeted that he is still waiting for an apology.

Not “white” nationalists. Just nationalists. Americans come in all sorts of colors, and we (Trump supporters) just want to make America great again...for all Americans. Illegal aliens? Not so much. They can go home—no matter what color of skin they have—and good riddance!

"...the Danbury mayor, Republican Mark Boughton...asked the chanting students for an apology."

Hey, Mark, he's a two word apology. Starts with an "F" and it ends with a "U".

So the game is: Around any Trump position, any Star Wars Bar patron type may attach any grievance, angst, or consequence of personal failure to it. OK. Got it. File it. Ignore it.

What?? Apologize for what?

Kiddies, do your parents have to apologize to everyone when they tell you to, "Lock that house door. Lock your school locker. Lock that bike. Lock that car?"

What does the ADL have to do with this?

They want to make sure the muzzlem terrorists disguised as unemployed Jewish Mexican criminals can get across the borders.

More outrage over this than over the murders of innocent people by the ones who come over the borders.

“Build. That. Wall!!! Build. That. Wall!!!”....

My guess Trump has already placed an order for the materials. All he needs to do now is wait until January to give the “go ahead”. He’s probably already got the building crews lined up.

A little perspective on the fence. Had a discussion with a former gang member from LA who is all in favor of the fence.

His perspective was that if we build the fence, create a dam, that Mexico will have to build a fence at their ports and southern border. Illegal immigration is a big business for the whole state and if we create a bottle next it will back up. It will create a crisis in Mexico.

He also pointed out that those that leave Mexico and come back are NOT socially accepted by the general population. Much like the military deserters of the 60’s and 70’s here, the only recent example I can thing of.

Further many that come across the border form Mexico are form countries to the south of Mexico and they are lower on the social order than anyone else if sent back to Mexico.

Another point is that rents on the Mexican side of the border are extremely high, reflecting the high demand of the illegal immigration business there.

Documentation is hard. Many/most times the local courthouse and church have been destroyed. So their only option is created documentation. If we stop immigration and do not accept any documentation, then the only recourse is to go back to your local community where people might know you but then because you left, no one will accept you.

It is a messy situation, with no easy solution. If we stop immigration an unintended consequence with our involvement is nation building...................

“Appropriate apologies” = non-apology apologies.

“We’re sorry your parents raised you to be fragile snowflakes and taught you that you have the right to not be offended.”

That ought to do, though I’m sure someone here can do better.

I want apologies! Decades worth! For being called racist, homophobe, fascist, bigot, sexist, xenophobe, hateful, white supremecist, greedy, intolerant, mean and ignorant.

There is a warehouse full of apologies due me from schools, newspapers, media, blogs, websites, the Democrat Party & their associated groups, atheists, blacks, Hispanics and women.

WWFY!

What I don’t understand is why these students who DON’T want a WALL, insist that the colleges provide them WALLS (safe space) to hide behind ?

Diversity is their catch all excuse for getting away with all the horrible things that they do.

Thanks. We can start talking to Mexico to stratergize after they make the first payment on building more significant obsticals (sp) on our common border. Getting it right won’t be simple. I’d be happy if Mexico were a place I’d like to move to.
