Open America's borders now!!!!
Me | Now | Me

Posted on 04/06/2002 10:29:59 PM PST by paul544

I think America needs to open its borders to Mexico so that there is not even a border patrol. America is the land of opportunity and freedom. That should be the case for EVERYONE. Not just those that are citizens. There should be nothing seperating people from the opportunity that America offers. It is wrong not to share the wealth America has.

I'm essentially in agreement with you. I agree that it is morally right that we should open our borders or block out that piece of hypocracy at the Statute of Liberty.

The situation is different now than during previous waves of immigration. Can you propose a workable policy that would prevent the third worlders who are steeped in Marxism from importing that impoverishing ideology here? Can you envision any way to forma coalition that would support such policies. Both libs and conservatives are pretty unified on opposing open boarders.

You didn't happen to read George Guilder's "Weath and Poverty" did you? I came away from reading that with most of my opinions changed about immigration.

Howdy

Well, I think everything you said is quite right in every particular.

But, hey, if there wasn't the occasional self hating nihlistic conflict oriented anti American bigot from the nazi left here to advance the cause of human misery and degradation, we would be deprived of rhetorically flaying their hides off, now wouldn't we?

I suspect this tin foil hat wearing open border lunatic doesn't actually beleive a word he is posting, he is just posing as a tin foil hat wearing lunatic to provide us with the sport of blowing away his utterly specious "agruments" against the existence of the USA.

Kinda like throwing clay pigeons.

Or maybe is an authentic whacko, there must be three or four people in two hundred eighty millions idiotic enough to actually believe this nonsense.

So you would vote for a closed border, pro abortion Democrat?

Paul, you bring up a good point...what would it take to get someone who is conservative on a lot of issues to vote for a Democrat. First of all, if it's Hillary, I would definitely vote for whomever had the best chance of defeating her.

But beyond that there's a dilemma. Personally, I think a partial birth abortion ban should have been signed by GWB immediately. What worse terror is there then maiming and then murdering pre-born infants? But, if the Republicans get too cute in their hedging on abortion to get "moderate" votes, and I feel (like in Massachusetts) they aren't going to make lots of abortions illegal, other issues matter. And the border is a huge one.

It's not just that I don't want foreign citizens to move here without developing American values, it's that I really don't like globalism, and think all borders (not just ours) need to be enforced and respected.

Hey. if they want the freedom America offers, let them follow the necessary steps to become citizens.

Or how about they try this one on for size -- REFORM MEXICO

How's that for a novel concept?

In case you didn't know, we had some immigrants (illegal or legal?) come into this country and crash two commercial jets into the world trade center... in the aftermath of that we are promised more attacks of a similar type by citizens of who knows what other countries. Just in case you missed it.

Being called ignorant, a moron etc... is actually a compliment coming from someone like you.

Explain how allowing further tens of millions of illiterate, Democrat voting, underacheivers into this country is a good thing.

While you are doing that, explain what is to keep Islamic terrorists from crossing this open border of yours.

As I have stated earlier, I believe you to be an enemy of all that I hold dear.

That is soooo easy to say living here.

If you care so much why don't you join the Peace Corp or something and go down and give them lessons on how to improve their own place, instead of giving away yours and everyone elses' home?

You know as well as I do that if those things were available at the time they would have taken advantage of it.

Oh please. This is a really moot point since neither of you were there. HOWEVER judging by the writings of the founding fathers their intent was NOT to come here to set up a government that would give handouts to the downtrodden. If they wanted something like that they would have had a better chance staying in Europe and grovelling at the feet of wealthy powerful men. Instead they chose the hard route of self sufficiency. So of the two assertions, paul544 yours holds much less water in the face of FACTS.
