The story of José Gutiérrez underlines the rank hypocrisy of all the talk about so-called “illegal” immigration. If you want to cross the border into the U.S. in the hopes of making a better life, you’re a criminal. But if you lose your life doing the U.S. government’s killing in Iraq, you’ve earned the right to be a citizen.
Sums up the “socialist” mentality perfectly.
He joined the military to earn for himself something that he didn’t already have. Citizenship in a foreign nation.
But to the twisted mind of a leftist, working to improve your station in life is just a hypocritical crock. Confiscating that which belongs to others is somehow the more ennobling route to betterment.
I long ago gave up trying to wrap my brain around the effed up logic of the left.
It took me awhile, but eventually realized that almost every argument I've ever seen from the hard left is just emotion wrapped in a straw man.
As the example you quoted is.
