... It is clear that the outrage being hurled at President Trump has almost nothing to do with concern for the children. It is merely the latest tactic by those who desire an open southern border, to the point that the United States can no longer be considered a nation of laws and borders.
I can’t agree with The Hill in this. This rhetoric is exactly the kind of ‘either-or’ crap that has virtually ruined the American political system. It is completely possible - and logical - to want to maintain a strong border and ‘asylum’ policy and implement rigorous criteria for applicants, while simultaneously treating folks who arrive at the border sensibly and humanely.
This is not the opinion of the Hill. See their disclaimer. It’s written by a guy who works for the legal arm of FAIR, an anti-immigrant group.
“The ideal subject of totalitarian rule is not the convinced Nazi or the dedicated communist, but people for whom the distinction between fact and fiction, true and false, no longer exists.”

I started by asking some questions to see if Ajax was interested in real discussion about why we should or shouldn't have a wall all the way across the Mexican border. If real discussion can take place my points would become clearer, but Cam is not interested atm with real discussion or understanding people points/arguments. Just insulting most everyone who will try to engage with him, and some who haven't.
That's patently false. I would've thought you, of all people, to be a little more oriented toward the truth. Shame.

Yeah I figured as much.
Of course you do.

Well it might have helped if you had tried making positive comments--Israel has a wall, they also have this that and this other thing along their borders--instead of testing him.
My comments had nothing to do with your interaction with Cam.
