Are you now saying that you don't want to flood the US and Canada with billions of asylum seekers? We need to save the North Koreans before winter sets in and the people can't find any rats to eat. Now that Trump and Kim are BFFs our Canadian buddies can help us out by taking a couple of million of them before October. Right now we have our hands full with the people from south of the border but we will soon let all of them come in since the candidate for Mexican President says that they need to find better lives in America. We could get 400 million people before the year is out.
And our joint goal for next year is to extract all of the oppressed people from Africa. They are having a rough time over there and need to live better lives in the US and in Canada.

People say "What if the Native Americans didn't let the white man in?"
The question relies on people being self-centered, so they think "That'd be bad!" because they look at it from the white man's perspective. But if you look at it from the perspective of Native Americans (which is what would be applicable if it were a serious point), it would have been WAY better for the Naive Americans to just kill off the white people when they showed up.
Just an amusing thing about how self-centered people are. They identify with their race, not their position in the relationship dynamic.
It's not funny. Not by any means. The NAI were a gracious community of people, extending an olive branch (so to speak) and welcoming in people from a foreign land. What we did to them was utterly disgraceful. And now, thanks to the current administration, we have essentially slapped those wanting to come here, in the face with a double standard. What's good for the white man isn't good enough for the brown man.
We killed the gracious people and stole their land!!!! The moral of that tale is don't be gracious to immigrants, or they'll kill you. That's the joke. That if the NAI had a do-over, they should have killed all the invaders. It's the exact opposite conclusion from what people who bring it up are getting at.

Just when your comments were convincing me of the soundness of your position you have now seemed to started to abandon your position. It seems that now you don't want to bring all of the billions of oppressed people to the US and Canada where they can live better lives. Have you been insincere?
Don't you want to welcome the Nigerian Christians who are being killed?
Religious War Looms in Nigeria as Christian Body Count Climbs

The fate of a 15-year-old Nigerian girl could decide whether sectarian war breaks out in Nigeria, authorities warn.
Boko Haram returned 105 of the 111 girls it had abducted in February — but Leah Sharibu was not among them. The reason: The extremists said she had refused to renounce her Christian faith.
According to the Nigerian Daily Post, both the Christian Association of Nigeria (CAN) and the Pentecostal Christian Association are warning that if Sharibu dies in Boko Haram hands it could touch off a full-blown religious war. Nigeria is 50 percent Muslim, 40 percent Christian, and 10 percent indigenous beliefs."

and what about those Burmese muslims who are being raped and slaughtered? Don't you want to protect them in Calgary or Winnipeg?

Now we can get to work and bring billions of oppressed people to the US and to Canada where they can live great lives in freedom and take care of us in out dotage.
I have to congratulate you for helping me see all of the wonderful benefits having 5 or 6 billion people in Canada and the US will bring. It will eliminate trade wars as well as actual wars. It will reduce if not eliminate the pollution of the oceans. It will eliminate the need for military spending because the majority of people will be living under the US federal government. And pollution will be reduced because there will be no real need for international travel.
We really need to get super busy and make this happen. It will usher in a true paradise on Earth. So let's get those letters out to all of our national leaders and get them on board to make it a reality. What title do you want in the Eternal Front for Asylum? Get in on the ground floor because all of the best titles will be taken in 24 hours.

No one ever tried to convince you of that. As you descend deeper and deeper into ridiculousness, there seems less and less point to reading your posts on the matter except for the train wreck fascination of finding out if you can top yourself at building ludicrous straw men.

It's become obvious that people who whine on behalf of asylum seekers are just posing to make themselves look empathic. They are not really interested in helping people who are truly in need of protection from oppression around the world They just like to raise a ruckus to get some feel good points.
The bottom line = all of you guys are full of shit and it's obvious to everyone who has been reading this thread.
