Read the entire article, ajax. It clearly documents how denying flu vaccinations to the detainees endangers more than just the detainees and is ultimately less expensive and problematic than vaccinating them. Plus, it is inexcusably inhumane.

But it is no surprise that you continue to grasp at any straws you find, however flimsy, to defend the indefensible.
No precept or claim is more likely to be false than one that can only be supported by invoking the claim of Divine authority for it--no matter who or what claims such authority.

That's all believers are capable of doing, since there's no objective source from which to draw information.

But yeah, this thread is a prime example of that dynamic in action. The god of ajax is a vengeful, cheap xenophobe, just like ajax. What a shock.

This idea that ajax cares about the law is damned ludicrous. If he gave a crap about the law, Trump would not be "his guy."

I've come to the conclusion ajax does more lying to himself than anyone else. All his comments are good for are as a cautionary tale about having sex with your relatives.

As far as crimes go, staying in the US without authorization is about as harmless as jaywalking if not less so,


Maybe for those who don't pay taxes. It's not just welfare or lowering wages of native born workers. There's a plethora of public services just like the flu vaccines that Gunnar mentioned impressed upon the taxpayer where the taxpayer is forced to either cough up more and more money or see the entire country come down with the plague. Then there's the legal costs, court hearings, and the cost of hiring law enforcement to track these people down. Illegal immigration is no more a victimless crime than women who choose to have children they cannot afford or would rather someone else provided for. In fact both acts are very similar and neither are considered morally wrong by liberals because the victims of these crimes are not a part of their constituency. If I believed it was a harmless as jaywalking, I'd say open up the borders to everyone. But we know you're full of crap.

Your quote is perhaps the biggest lie of the past 60 years. Yet thank you for being honest since it allows us to understand why you're thinking is so warped.

Undocumented immigrants ultimately are a net-contributor to the tax base, so that's actually a inadvertent benefit to them? Remember how you run away whenever legitimate research on the economic impacts of immigration, legal and otherwise, is brought up? Sometimes you'll just assert you don't believe it before ghosting and sometimes just say nothing at all. Try to remember what you are running away from, though.

He thinks that poor women having children ought to be a criminal offense.

So since it isn't one now, is he going to reframe his point or stand by it as stated?
