Also because i missed it the first time.

Quote:Did she open her borders and let them in to get warm?

Did she feed them all?

Not her job nor her responsibility and Abbot could have not sent them during a freaking cold snap.

Quote:What is needed to be a welcome center? Especially when borders don’t mean anything to her.

She has a warm mansion, no?

She has the means to round up food at moments notice, no?

Not her job nor her responsibility and Abbot could have not sent them during a freaking cold snap.Also, she's never said borders don't matter.

I also don't think that Kamala necessarily has the ability to feed over a hundred people at moment's notice, let alone housing them or dealing with any medical issues (especially the kind that are exacerbated by staying outdoors in record low temperatures while dressed in summer clothes). The VP's house is pretty big, but I don't think it's big enough for a sudden influx of a hundred people.

Also, you ask what's necessary to become a welcoming center, here's something from my own home state about the subject. And I'm going to go out on a limb and say that things aren't much different outside of Illinois. Unless it's shit like, "don't put ketchup on your hot dogs" or "South of the Ike, they like the White Sox, and North of the Ike, they like the Cubs." But that's trivial in comparison to everything else, especially the lower-tier Maslovian needs they're supposed to meet.

We shouldn't need to send immigrants to sanctuary cities and states. They should already sharing the load and taking them.

No. Border states should be dealing with it themselves not thrusting it off to everyone else. They showed up in their states they should be their responsibility.

Then get Washington out of it and let the states do their thing.

No. Washington still gets to be in charge and states still have to take them in when they show up as that is their responsibility period.

That'd be happening with or without Texas and Arizona sending buses to them. Case in point, Illinois (my home state) is a sanctuary state and we have 425,000 undocumented immigrants (#6 behind California, Texas, New York, New Jersey, and Florida). California, another sanctuary state, has a bit less than a quarter of the undocumented population of the US.

And the funny thing, the seven sanctuary states (and the District of Columbia) seem to actually have a 33.8% of the undocumented population despite making up 21.73% of the total population of the country. If you think they're not pulling their own weight in this situation, you're absolutely wrong.

Right, because the governors of Texas and Florida have shown nothing but compassion towards these desperate people.

what detailed news do they get on the mexico border?

I can english

Please stop trying to weasel out, its pathetic.
People where shipped a thousand miles (which you conveniently forgot to mention) into the middle of a cold spell, and i bet a paycheck that Abbot did not tell them "dont worry, help is only 3,5m miles away".....because thats what this stunt was all about, right?
Even if Abbot did tell them, its still reprehensible to use people as props for a political stunt. And commenting this fact is what you desperately will keep trying to avoid, since you already know the answer to my question: It is ok to use helpless people as props for a political stunt?

We are living in times, where its suddenly ok to be a racist or antisemite, where its ok to use people as props, where its ok to invade other countries.
Must have been a pretty big rock someone lifted, for so many cockroaches to suddenly start scuttling around.

Irrelevant for evaluating Abbots actions. Or do you think its ok to shuffle people around as props for a political stunt during a border crisis, as opposed to "normal times"?

you seem to have a problem with the migrant logic over mine.

they traveled thru several loving countries that are warm.

Stop being so fucking dishonest.
A few posts ago you claimed they were dropped off only 3,5miles away from help. Now its warm states they were ferried through, before they were put into danger. Is any of that really relevant for evaluating Abbots actions?

You arent even pretending anymore to be sincere.

Talk to Deessee23. he called me a liar for saying there's a crisis at the mexico border.
Do you think there is a crisis at the mexico border?

Is it ok during a border crisis to .....you know the exercise, dont you?

The migrant housing in Texas was overflowing and there were below freezing temperatures outside. Texas needs more help in providing care. This needs to be a national effort. It's easy to pontificate when your property is not being overrun. Stop flapping your lips and get down there and help out! If Canada attacked Michigan would we send any troops there or just let them use their national guard?
