He's fine, he just can't step away from his emotions and conjecture and supplant it with rational thought.

It's a flaw in humanity.

At least he's considerate, which is more than I can say for some of you people

3/18/2016 4:00:32 PM

emotions?

I have no emotional thought on the matter.

Strictly dollars and sense. Yes, i spelled it correctly.

3/18/2016 4:20:48 PM

You're ignoring actual dollars though and acting like your proposed solution of forced deportation of everybody will somehow magically be cheaper and more effective if we just try harder.

And one of the next big changes that came later on was the policies of LBJ and his idea of a "Great Society." Illegals now use anchor babies to help them stay here and collect money from the government welfare programs. The law needs to be changed so that newborns aren't US citizens unless at least one of their parents is a citizen of the US.

After watching the Samantha Bee interviews with Trumpists, I can't see how they can think Trump is just joking with his vile comments about people and groups. He really seems bothered by the things he rails against. I wonder how long Trump has been this unhinged, I guess people assumed it was his TV persona, but maybe the guy is just nuts.

Megyn Kelly deserves all the criticism she gets for being a GOP puppet. The best part about the primaries has been watching her throw temper tantrums while the votes come in after the polls close.

RedState has an article speculating on his age-related cognitive impairment. I expect for this to appear in more places. If you have dealt with the aged, you recognize the symptoms. The man is losing his mind.

Couple this with his tyrannical instincts. When he finally comes to realize that not only he can he not win the general election, but he will be the first presidential candidate to lose to a woman ... let's just say, you will know when it happens.

So what exactly is the story here? Shitheel liberals dressed up as KKK members at a Trump rally to try to make others believe that Trump supporters are nothing but klan memebers? And then said shitheel gets punched in the face by a black person?

I don't see a problem. Anybody dressing like the klan needs to be punched in the face.

I don't think they were trying to fool anyone if that's what you mean. You basicallyrrepeated the point in my post except you gave the puncher way more benefit of the doubt. It's basically another sucker punch. If you want to call it provoked, it's only barely so. Also dude may have done some serious damage, that punch was solid and he got in some heavy kicks.

Practically? Can you quantify that? You claim it is made up. Are you saying that no one has crossed the border illegally or has overstayed a visa? If people have done that, which we have actual fact of, then it is a problem. You may not believe that it is a HUGE problem, but you say "no real impact"? I have a feeling that states on the border and people that are looking for jobs may think it is a problem. Might be a problem for the people that try and enter the country legally and then get profiled due to the law breakers that try and sneak in. Might be a problem for the people killed and injured by illegal aliens. Why is it ok for hundreds of millions of dollars to be sent to other countries....money that is taken out of our (you included) monetary system, that is not very stable to begin with.

Yes, some of the problems facing this country are hard to solve, but why not solve this one? It's right in our face.

Why not amend the constitution? It has been done before, to keep up with the times and due to popular demand. Anchor babies weren't a issue when the country had 1 million people.

There wasn't much damage that could have been done, considering the dude apparently was mentally retarded to begin with. Thinking that dressing up as a Klan member and disturbing a Trump rally was as good idea falls to "Imma steal this here propaganda banner while vacationing in North Korea" levels of stupid.

you do realize that there is an entire industry of getting pregnant women (from all over the world) across the border so they can have their kid in the US and obtain citizenship, right? Then the the kid is eligible for all sorts of benefits, and the mother is taken care of too, because that is the 'moral' thing to do. Then, we can't send the mom back, cause that would 'break up the family'.

Yes, that is a problem, and amending the anchor baby provision in the constitution would a) help with the problem of human trafficking and b) take away some incentive to come here illegally. Wouldn't cost the gov't a dime to do that. And then really growing some balls and arresting employers.

3/20/2016 6:46:03 PM

Arrest employers!??!!!! You want to arrest employers????

3/20/2016 8:01:29 PM

^^ I do realize. But now you've gone from "Stop anchor babies! They're taking our jobs and killing our people!" to "Stop anchor babies! Human trafficking is bad!" Amending the Constitution may help the latter, not so much the former. On the other hand, going after employers doesn't require an amendment and would have a far larger impact on immigration than anything targeting anchor babies.

Whatever you want to do about immigration, I hope you're considering policies that help preserve the net positive impact of illegal immigration on our economy.

LOL, this will have near zero impact on the people coming here illegally. Yeah, some people do come here to try and have a baby, but the number of people that do this is dwarfed by the number of people that come here to work or live. Plus it's grossly unfair to the American kids born here who grow up and live as Americans, whose only home and culture they know is America.

It makes literally zero sense, nor is it even feasible, to amend to constitution to end birthright citizenship at this point. It also undermines your statement that you only hate "illegal" immigrants, it really makes it seem like you hate all immigrants and are personally uncomfortable with the idea that the world changes, it always has, and always will.

3/21/2016 3:12:49 AM

3/21/2016 7:22:26 AM

Never once have I eluded to hating immigrants. I fully understand how this country was founded.

Why not punish employers that hire illegal immigrants? Never was against that either. It's part of the solution, along with stopping illegal border crossings and actually looking for overstayed Visas.

Yes, the industry that helps get women here for the purpose of having the baby on American soil is responsible for more than one problem. I didn't go 'from' anything. I am against the idea of anchor babies, as are many other people. Stopping that incentive would, yes, have an impact on human trafficking. Along with helping ease the moral issue some of ya'll brought up about separating families.

Come again? Doesn't make sense? To who? What do you mean 'at this point'? Of course it is feasible to amend the constitution. It absolutely can, and has, been done. Now, will it be done? No. Uncomfortable with the world changing? Again, no. Uncomfortable with people breaking the law and taking advantage of a system? You know it.

You know this for sure? You believe that if America said that you can't have a baby here and it automatically become a citizen, won't remove the incentive to pay smugglers to get them across the border? Unfair? I see this argument the most. If the parent didn't choose to break the law, or was stopped at the border, or was deported, then this would not be an issue. It is pretty crappy to deport a ten you old kid that was born here, yes, but that cannot be a concern in the rule of law world.

I do not care why you crossed the border illegally. Babies, work, live, visit, try to find Bigfoot. It doesn't matter.

My wife and I agree that he reminds us of my father-in-law (coincidentally, my MIL likes Trump). The older he gets, the louder and more boisterous he is. He has no filter and he makes less and less sense. We find it hilarious, especially when you combine it with gin and tonics and wine. Trump is one entertaining dude...but it's absolutely frightening that he has a chance to be president.

3/21/2016 9:32:14 AM

I like how now that GrumpyGOP is taking a break from pointing out everything wrong with Benxj's posts he's gone back to rehashing his arguments as if the last 2 pages never happened.

For those of you that want to deport more immigrants than the ones that are caught breaking some law other than crossing the border:

The cost of finding and deporting these people has been shown to be very expensive per individual by people that know a lot more than you on this subject. Other people who also know a lot more than you have shown that having more immigrants, even illegal ones, helps the GDP and the economy in general. They have also shown that deporting all of them would hurt the economy.

When you add those things together, it would seem that you are arguing we should spend a bunch of money to find these people, probably breaking up a bunch of families in the process, with the added bonus of hurting our economy.

Now, since you are the ones saying this is a problem, that means the burden is on you to prove either:
1) Why the above statements are not true. I.E. Show how deporting all these people will be good for the economy (and yes, you need to show your work...none of us want to be spending money on a problem we don't believe is that important just because you say so)

or

2) Show how you are going to fund said deportations AND keep that from hurting the economy (again, yes, you need to show your work here. Saying, "we'll do it slowly and will find other ways to help the economy" is not an acceptable answer before action is taken)
