How did we manage to feed ourselves, export countless tons of grain and produce to needy nations *and* pay farmers NOT to produce crops back in the days before there were 20+ Million illegals here to do all the work?

Ohhhhh, you have gone and done it now. One of the OBLers will pounce on you and tell you we've always had illegal aliens doing slavery and that you need to study history... :)

I’m through. Have things your way. Go round up all the illegals in the country have thrown the bums out. Please let me know when you’ve managed to accomplish this, and I’ll buy you a steak dinner.

Thank you for that. It’s frustrating trying to have a reasoned discussion with unreasonable people. I’ve offered to buy a steak dinner to one of these individuals once they’ve managed to round up all of the illegal immigrants and thrown them out of the country. I don’t think I’ll hold my breath while I wait.

I’m done with this argument. Some here seem to think that I’m pro-illegal immigration, when I’ve stated over and over I’m not. So, I’m through. I’m not answering these inane posts any longer. If someone wants to have a reasoned and rational dialogue I’m ready.

Since you want nothing less than death for these criminals,

Link the post where I stated this or retract it, apologize then address my actual posts.

You and your ilk redirect or disappear like donkey rather than actually answering the real questions. Neither one of you have addressed post# 493 yet and you will not because it devastates most things that you have said on this thread. Especially the donkey.

Great point and see how fast the OBL is running away from it.

Tail between legs heading for cover.

New tagline!

We work while you sit on your ass and support the criminals?

Which did you lose first, your love for country, your guts or your balls?

Whatever, they are gone. Hoist your flag of choice while you can because with your attitude the islamic invasion will take it down in due time.

That makes it okay for him to undermine America?

No, I don’t think so.

That makes things ok?? My brother fought in all the wars since Persian Gulf I, on the front lines, literally in the trenches. He and every one of his Marine buddies are for a secure border and FOR U.S. sovereignty. Not this pansy tip-toeing around, non-amnesty, oh ok, let's let them stay, they bought houses here, we need lettuce pickers business.

“You made posts to this thread after mine without addressing mine and many others. Particularly post# 493. Specifically #’s 599, 600 and 601 are yours.
Your statement proves you to be a liar. “

I’m puzzled. You post that to me as if I’m a proponent of granting amnesty to illegals. Nothing could be further from the truth. There is nobody on this web site, or any other, who is more opposed to illegals being given anything...jobs, social services, legal status, education benefits, or even a taxpayer-funded ride home...than me.

I absolutely hate the notion that one illegal alien might ever be granted citizenship status, and that millions of children of illegals are granted citizenship via anchor-baby “rights.”

If you think I’m “pro-illegal immigration,” you need to start filtering your water.

If I may jump in... It was just a courtesy ping - only one or two names on there fell in the OBL category. The rest of us can duke it about who is more opposed to illegal aliens :0)

I pinged you and others that have posted on this thread.

I did not post this “at” you. I posted it to the person that I responded to and thought you might want to read it.

Perhaps I should not include anyone else in my pings.

You are exactly right. In Texas we have a some working in the farming arena but many more work in the feedlots, meat packing plants, etc. Any place that requires manual labor is where they will be. If you don’t have farming or the above then the number is greatly reduced.

We also did this kind of work. My dad worked in the oil field and also had our farm. He worked on the farm in the morning then turned it over to us (my brother and I) in the afternoon when he went to his oil field job. The three of us did all the work and didn’t need hired hands of any kind. We did the hoeing, plowing, harvesting, feeding the cattle, branding cattle, etc. ourselves. Welfare has ruined this country. The people that used to do the work that the illegals are doing find it more profitable and easier than having to work for a living. We would have never considered getting on public assistance. We were raised to take care of ourselves and let others do the same. We didn’t have much more than the bare necessities but at least we could hold our head up and know that what we had came from our efforts and not from the efforts of someone else.

Illegal alien criminals are in all of our States but have more deeply infested the Southwest.

They ALL need to go.




ALL OF THEM!

No you don’t. It takes someone that has had the proper training and experience. I know that my dad didn’t just turn me loose on his tractor without letting me sit with him on it and drive it for little distances until finally he was confident that I knew how to operate it and then turned me loose to do the plowing, etc..
