Politics Please say rock bottom is getting close

I honestly have no clue what you're talking about. I've not advocated for anything new on the border. Data shows that immigrants commit crime at lower rates than then the general population. Even illegal immigrants commit crime at lower rates.

Our homeless problem isn't due to immigrants. I've never had a Hispanic person ask me for money. I don't see any of them on the corners panhandling.

You are saying all these problems in broad terms but I have not seen any evidence of any of these problems.

Illegal immigration probably benefits the US to the tune of more than a trillion dollars a year. The downside as far as I could tell is that it creates a marginalized population that can be taken advantage of by corrupt people. And it may lower wages because corrupt people are taking advantage of that marginalized population.

 

There’s nothing wrong with mitigated immigration to the extent where it does actually help the economy. What’s happening now is beyond insane.

 

I hear you keep saying that. But I'm not sure what specific problems we are seeing as a result of this claimed flood of immigrants.

Rebecca Cheotegei, Olympic runner from Uganda, died yesterday after her boyfriend doused her with gasoline and set her on fire.

It is being whitewashed as domestic argument. Call it murder.

 

Yeah... 100% murder. To jail for life motherfucker.

 

Correct grammar is should have, not should of.

Sexists are too stupid, which is why women don't like them.

 

Ron Johnson, senator from stupidlandia, said he thinks Great Depression was inside job by deep state. No evidence, he just feels it in his bones.

Um, that's arthritis.

 

Texas attorney general Paxton, who is demanding medical records of women seeking abortion and trans people, is also demanding records of Catholic Charities. The sisters running Catholic Charities have the unmitigated unchristian gall to aid refugees.

 

All the Catholic Charities and Catholic Community Services I know of are run by men, but there may be exceptions nowadays. Usually presiding over a staff of M.Sws, Masters in Social Work. Ultimately, each male executive director answers to a male archdiocese priest who doesn't know much, to lobby for money. Running the bookkeeping of one was my first accounting job, in the 70s.

 

The graph says the current percentage is the same as 1860-1930, when the U.S. was at its most energetic. Cheap capitalist labor caused that. Wealthy Republicans want more immigrant employees; poor Republicans want less job competition.

 

If we'd just eat more people and fewer pets, this wouldn't be a problem.

 

She did a great job. He is clearly a bigoted piece of shit.

 

Senator John Kennedy of the great racist pit of Louisiana.

"You should hide your head in a bag" is a suffocation torture expression. 40 years ago I read an article, with the reporter at an Israeli torture station saying that a victim must be crazy. He saw him trying to kill himself by repeatedly banging his head into a wall. The reporter had no concept of torture, the history of Israel, or its "right to exist."

In a New Hampshire school district, some students had unpaid lunch bills. A local church stepped in, offering to pay the amount owed. School gets money, students get food. What's not to like?

School district refused and instead sued families.
