    Feelings aside, using the past to make decisions about the present is not my idea of progress.

    You guys can buy all the Sears stock you want...not me. Maybe they'll pull a Hail Mary and you'll all be rich.

    I just see a huge difference between ignorant and desperate vs dumb. It's the difference of empathy which Marz completely lacks.

    Sounds like you need to research the topic more.

    The amnesty question came up again during the Obama administration.

    I am not over stocked with this emotion. I dislike bullshit even more.

    Sessions is right to reverse that. Domestic violence? Gang violence? Yeah...no. Sorry.

    I'm not disregarding the immigration problem over the years....my posts were concerning the separation of children from families under the current practice instigated by Jeff Sessions...we're probably pulling out of the Human Rights Commission over this issue ...you are correct though...I have not done an extensive or detailed research concerning the history or practice of our southern border laws...I know as well as anyone it's a mess....my posts here are responses, not proposals.

    In my book a man is never desperate enough to risk giving up his children, unless of he is one dumb sob.

    Well the most vulnerable are being ripped from their parents and caged right now so the system is shit. I don't care who did what in the past. I don't care about policy. I don't care about partisanship. None of it. Do what is right, RIGHT FUCKING NOW. How ANYONE can argue against this stance is absolutely beyond me and quite honestly I find absolutely disgusting and beyond help. God save their empty black fucking souls.

    Trump: MS13 are a huge threat and bad people

    In my book, a man is no man at all if he supports ripping innocent children from their parents and locking them up. You're disgusting.

    Non qualifiers for seeking asylum now because of Sessions: gang violence and domestic abuse. So we’ve made it harder to ask for asylum. So people trying to leave that are fucked.

    It does not happen unless he does the stupid thing and brings them to the wrong damn place. Only a fool can't see this is right in front of him.

    Also I wonder what permanent, long term damage we are doing with regards to the young Latin American population. Great recruiting tool. Kind of like how we pissed off millions of young men in the Middle East. Now we can help explode the MS13 population

    For much of our history we had slavery, lynchings, "poor farms", women couldn't vote, no healthcare, no SSI, no paved roads, NO INDOOR PLUMBING...!

    I know you miss those days of lawless disorder and discrimination, but Real Americans have evolved on a daily basis.

    Maybe you should move south of the border to one of the many shithole countries that still provide the barbaric lifestyle you keep promoting here.

    Nice.

    Quoting an anti-American pro-Al Quaida supporter of terrorism against America.

    On August 4, 2013, McClatchy Newspapers, citing anonymous sources, reported on conversations between Ayman al-Zawahri, who succeeded Osama bin Laden as the head of Al Qaeda, and Nasser al-Wuhayshi, the head of the Yemen-based Al Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula, discussing an alleged imminent terrorist attack. Two days previously, The New York Times had agreed to withhold the identities of the Al Qaeda leaders after US intelligence officials claimed the information could jeopardize their operations. Government analysts and officials interviewed by the Times said the impact of this disclosure caused more immediate damage to American counter-terrorism efforts than the thousands of classified documents disclosed by Edward Snowden due to a sharp drop in the terrorists' use of a major communications channel that the authorities were monitoring.[15] Subsequently, officials have been searching for new ways to monitor communications among Al Qaeda's leaders and operatives.[
