Lets keep Our Wars at Home

[Cinjin]

So annoying. I still hear the occassional bleeding heart liberal saying how much the US should just have open borders. What a bunch of goddamn bullshit!

Not all liberals are the "bleeding heart" type, and not all liberals want the borders open, especially now. Then again, I am left of center. A moderate Progressive.

"Hey the Mexicans don't want to live in their shithole of a country. Lets just let them all come over here. They can bring their drugs and their illegal guns and their cartels and they can destroy our already teetering economy and we can create national holidays for them and set up their own little private communities and - screw it ... lets just make Mexico part of the US and everything will be a perfect utopia because OBVIOUSLY there's no negative side to doing away with all our borders. After all, we're misguided liberals who live in la la land where the government pays for everything and everyone is equal and no one has to work because everything is free and happy and wonderful and ..." ... GODDAMNIT I'm pissed off!!!!

Conservatives are just as bad when it comes to that. They rant and rave against the liberals and the illegals, but then they employ the illegals.The liberals want the illegals to have human rights. The conservatives complain about the illegals publicly on Monday, then have the illegals cut their grass on Tuesday.
Since not all liberals are the "bleeding heart" type, than obviously you understand that not all conservatives are the "employ the illegals" kind. I actually DO have some very liberal views even though I'm technically a conservative.
I also think you are strawman HARD at the end of your rant
Actually, you may have a point. This post caught the tail end of a debate I was just having earlier today with a civil engineer on our jobsite .... thus I may have gone a bit overboard. That being said, I don't believe I'm wrong, but I do think you and I probably agree on a lot of things (maybe not all) concerning this issue.

Hundreds of Americans (of all races) are losing their lives on our borders because the President of Mexico wanted to join the "war on drugs" - and now WE have to fight it! If it were up to me, we'd stop fucking around with every other country in the world (mind our own business for a change) and put every last soldier we have around the perimeter of that country and go kick the FUCKING shit out of Mexico for completely ignoring the basic human rights of it's next door neighbor ... US!!

THIS is why I want the border watched hard right now. I dont want that civil war to spill out into our country. Regardless of what "facts" the FBI or some agency puts out. The facts are: Mexico is in a civil war, lets secure our border and stay out of it.

What's our president go and do?!? Not only does he NOT bring our troops home, but he goes and gets us militarily involved in TWO MORE COUNTRIES, and puts the equivalent of a "band aid" on our border patrol problem. The world already hates us. So I say, leave them alone and fix the problems you can fix. Protect our people from the thugs that live in that shithole known as Mexico.
Talk to me Americans ... are you with me??

Im pissed about him not bringing troops home. Im pissed about escalating the war. Im pissed that ten years after the 9/11 attack that our border patrol hasnt changed.

What can I say Rev.... I agree with a lot of what you write brother.
