You don't just sent busloads of people to someone's house. If it were okay, draw a name out of the hat. There are a lot of people in TX with the means to help.

Category error. Michigan is one state, not the nation.

When Canada attacks- "Excuse me, are you using this bit of border?"

They should built more housing. That's totally on them

Too bad. It's their problem so they should deal with it.
Quote:This needs to be a national effort.
Nope if they land in your state there your responsibility. Don't shove it off on other states.
Quote: It's easy to pontificate when your property is not being overrun.
A state and a country aren't property and we can pontificate because wheater it's mine or not the facts don't change.
Quote:Stop flapping your lips and get down there and help out!
No Texas needs to freaking deal with the issue. Not expect other people to do it for them.
Quote:If Canada attacked Michigan would we send any troops there or just let them use their national guard?
The Army is obligated to defend the whole nation from foreign attacks. It's the state's job to deal with its immigrants who land in their states. So deal with it and quit whining.

Category error. Michigan is one state, not the nation.
Perhaps more importantly, is Lek seriously comparing Latin-American civilians peacefully (if not exactly legally) crossing the border to another nation attacking the US?

Anyone with 1/2 a brain knows that the Republican Governor of Texas sent these people to the Democratic VP if the US as a dick measuring display. Abbott not once considered the wellbeing of the people he shipped off. It was a PR ploy to keep the GOP in Texas, and elsewhere, to continue to shove their noses up his ass.

Hell, if your concern is that it's freezing in Texas, why not send those buses to someplace like California or New Mexico or even Western Colorado? All three are sanctuary states, they're closer to Texas than Washington, and (most germane to the weather concerns) they actually have areas that aren't affected by the winter storm. Hell, there's even parts of Oregon that aren't affected.

Seems so. Not to mention those escaping from completely heinous conditions caused by shithead governmental "management".

Greg Abbott shipping asylum seekers and other legal immigrants to wherever is no different than Adolf Eichmann rearranging the train timetables.
