We’re not turning our backs.
We’re telling them to go back.
Build guard-gated neighborhoods with admit/do not admit lists in their homelands, like the one just to the north of where I am in Florida. There are hundreds of these guard-gated communities in Florida.
A massive guard-gated city is being built near Karachi in Pakistan according to a recent article in the Guardian Weekly.
And give the law-abiding ones Second Amendment-like gun-bearing rights in their homelands.
Nothing takes a bite out of crime more than a dead criminal shot by the criminal’s intended victim.
And state publicly that ordinary citizens need the right to bear arms.
There are thousands of communities with private streets in the USA, for residents and invited guests. Some have security patrols, often using retired police officers.
In New York City and Washington, DC there are apartment building where you have to get buzzed in. These cities also have apartment buildings owned by tenant associations that screen potential apartment buyers.
In Dallas, many apartment complexes are surrounded by chain-link fencing.
Upscale Los Angeles had many “Armed Response” signs when I visited over thirty years ago.
One suspects that it's a carefully cultivated false cloak that helps them buy Republicans in congress, and gives them access to other convenient avenues of undermining our fine Country.
Real refugees whose lives are threatened and who are willing to adopt American values, give them a hearing and decide if they stay or go. Economic refugees from $hithole countries, send ‘em back or to a place that WILL take them. No Muslims, EVER!
What could have been more ill-managed than Puerto Rico? They have a year-round growing season, no need to heat their dwellings, a long and spectacular seacoast much of which is well suited for recreational resort use, and plenty of people who need work. They've had and survived storms forever and will continue to do so.
But the reality is that we control 4% of the world's real estate and already have 5% of the world's population. The immigrants we can handle are those who can (a)contribute and (b)share our values.
That excludes 95% (or more) of those who want to come here. We can no more be flophouse to the world than policeman to the world. It is way past time to implement the same type of merit based immigration system practiced by every sane country in the world.
I just got back from Puerto Rico, frankly I wouldn’t have known there was a hurricane there based on what I saw. They’ve pretty much recovered.
Of course, the press doesn’t want people to think that.
exactly. It seems that libertarianism is mighty convenient,eh?
TRESPASSERS!
How DUMB do they think the American public is?
SCREW the Koch Bros and the horse they rode in on!
I’m finding it so easy to turn my back on the Koch bros. Good luck electing GOP candidates post Trump, boys.
My thought is that America isn't technically really anybody's country, but rather the nation of those who happen to hold and occupy the territory it at this moment. In this context it makes sense from a globalist perspective (Bush, Koch, et al) to promote policies that will simply substitute the current (difficult & recalcitrant) inhabitants for a more pliable, manageable population demographic.
Of course, I'm not suggesting we roll over; rather, look at the situation more pragmatically. For whatever reason we're here, we took it from the stone age Indians, and we shipped over some slaves to do the heavy lifting. However, we're not giving it up, and we'll drive out/defeat any who oppose our continental hegemony.
What the heck is wrong with the Koch Brothers? They were once good guys.
Nope. We are only learning now they were bad guys all along. The Koch’s helping elect republicans to push their open borders agenda does not make them “good guys”.

Let's take GB for example: Celts were minding their own business when these pesky Angles & Saxons showed up, demanding their stuff, including their daughters. They acquiesced - after all, the "new" English were much larger, stronger and aggressive - and a new era took hold. However, lo and behold, after getting nice and comfy, a new crew of French speaking Danes show up and take the newcomers stuff. Not only that, but they were much more rigid and organized, so they inventoried and confiscated everything down do a remaining duck.
And guess what? The storied England to this day is still owned, ruled and governed by the descendants of William 1,000 years later. Moral of the story: He who holds the territory determines who and who isn't a citizen, who and who doesn't have power, who gets to direct million of peasants to charge machine gun bullets, and who gets to drink fine wine and travel the globe.
This is the core essential of every country, England, France, Germany, and the US. If the current inhabitants can't keep it, they don't deserve it. We're on the same page with respect to opposing the enemy, it's just that I take a much more real world approach.
America is unique and a Dutchman grasps it better than you do.
Well, let’s leave it at that. We’re both opposed to the Bush plan - as you call it - but we have different reasons.
I hadn’t thought of Libertarians as already being on the dark side - just horribly confused and on the wrong side of History.
Thanks for clearing that up!
Suicide Libertarians works for me!
