As I said, I wouldn't exclude an entire group. Immigrants should be tested for infectious diseases upon entry as they always have.

This has happened.

Vets aren't in the streets because mexicans are taking their money. Vets are in the streets because the rich shitwads who control the racists you love to cheer for took their money.
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!

Nope your for keeping out as few of the evil foreigners as humanly possible to retain your delusions hegemony at least other right wingers are honest about this.

You don't give a fuck about homeless veterans or homeless people in general their just the cudgel you use to push a zero sum fallacy if there wasn't a single illegal migrant you right wingers would leave those people to rot.

If you don't want to be lumped with the bigots, maybe you should quit mindlessly buying into Reich-wing, bigoted arguments, then regurgitating them here.
For fuck's sake, Lek, you have the sum total of the world's knowledge literally at your fingertips, yet you sound like a FOX News pundit.
