It’s honestly amazing to me how many times you bring up the “personal insult” issue.



The explanation is pretty simple: I like to see righties in red.

but you wouldn't be calling yourself an illegal invader from Sh&&oles trying to get the proserity

you would be calling yourself a man trying to take care of his family



Because that’s EXACTLY what is happening to them. Everyone is a victim, right?

Next thing you will be believing they are running from Zombies.

Did this sh&&&&le just get overrun with gangs? If not, why are these “good people “ bringing kids into such a world?

I cannot believe how some find a way to justify anything.

no, everyone is not a victim. some are predators. some are prey



the drive to procreate is so strong that nothing will stop it even if the situation seems hopeless
that is the nature of human beings - they have hope no matter what - children represent hope - for a better life - a brighter future - among other things


chances are very good that somewhere within your ancestry, one or more of your ancestors lived in great poverty and in the middle of a war

and they continued to have children


if they hadn't done that you wouldn't be here criticizing other people for having children

In other words, they can’t control their junk, can’t take the effort wrapping it and are willing to bring a child into a world where they can’t support it. Yea, these are the exact type of people we need as immigrants. And you wonder why they are dependent their entire lives.

Sounds like the human equivalent of rabbits to me.

But thanks for better explaining their (lack of) thought process. Next you can explain to me why I should pay a higher percentage of my income in taxes if I work harder and make a better living for myself to support these people when they come here and sign right up for welfare.

Simple, we need educated immigrants who come the right way. Not unskilled illegals standing outside a Home Depot willing to work for cash.

Until you can show me every able bodied American has a job and is not collecting benefits for not working, I disagree that we need illegals.

PS, F Harvard. When was the last time they won any worthwhile sporting event?

For most the history of our country, the prevailing value was that everyone had the personal freedom to do what they wanted (wrap it up or don't, have a child or not) and accept the personal accountability to take care of it. Now Trump and his supporters are turning away from those values and instead want our country to take on the communist values that the government decides what is best for us.

It is no longer personal responsibility when you rely on the government to provide you with food, clothing, and shelter after you use poor judgement (EG: have 7 kids while being dirt poor).

The solution would be for the government to stop providing all that stuff. Build a wall around the welfare state. But Trump's entire political career has been built on turning those people into villains, so he desperately it to continue to maintain support

I used to think I might want to have a kid or two someday, then I officiated 6th-10th grade basketball for a couple seasons for some extra cash and exercise, and realized that having kids frequently causes a significant percentage of otherwise normal seeming adults to act batsh*t crazy.

Another lie from the left to deflect blame from the government and vilify American employers. Illegals earn only slightly less than their legal peers. If they are doing it off the books, they're taking home more than their legal peers.

They can apply for asylum in Mexico, or Canada, or other countries they enter along the way.

No reason for them to come here for asylum, if they are already in a country that is allowing them to apply for asylum.

3.4% less than George Soros, or your average McDonald's apprentice? I'm thinking they aren't picking up the high wage jobs to start with.

Actually you thanked someone else that posted the same link but thats ok.

That Infowars article was actually a link from Drudge. It was well sourced in the body of the article so I used it. I have looked at the Infowars website one time before when the controversy was hot about Twitter and others banning them. It is really a little too far right even for me to look at regularly.

It's laughable that you'd even come close to comparing HuffPost to Infowars.




As Babs said she would never click on Infowars, I would never knowingly click on HP. Never.

National Enquirer might even be more newsworthy than Infowars. I don’t think the Enquirer was crappy enough to suggest little kids being shot was a hoax.
There's no secret. Just know what you're talking about before you open your mouth.

I agree
Huff post simply leans left
Infowars is extreme right wing fake news such as Sandy Hook did not happen
Its just a forum. Nothing here to get obsessed about.

Both are extreme, but they are on different levels of delusion.

Again, they are not comparable.

TDS at its finest. Even the loons who comment on the HP have an issue with this decision.

Hard to believe anyone could see this as a good decision with all of CA’s other problems.

F the taxpayer should be California’s new motto.

That would make a good T-shirt. FTT "ask me how".

It does resemble a trade deal.

For most the history of our country, the prevailing value was that everyone had the personal freedom to do what they wanted (wrap it up or don't, have a child or not) and accept the personal accountability to take care of it. Now Trump and his supporters are turning away from those values and instead want our country to take on the communist values that the government decides what is best for us.

Got anything to demonstrate the president's "communist values"?



Here is a good reference: https://wizardofvegas.com/forum/off-topic/general/30375-trumps-second-and-third-year-in-office/1121/#post723322

Sounds like he might be talking about this: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/One-child_policy -- I might be wrong that Trump would like to move in that direction, I just thought that Boz and Trump had the same liberal ideology. Boz (and others) also continue to point out how the government, with Trump as president, is giving welfare benefits to everyone who asks for them: https://wizardofvegas.com/forum/off-topic/general/30375-trumps-second-and-third-year-in-office/1123/#post723365,

The solution would be for the government to stop providing all that stuff. Build a wall around the welfare state. But Trump's entire political career has been built on turning those people into villains, so he desperately it to continue to maintain support

Is that saying that people who are in the U.S. illegally should have basic expenses like housing, food, health care etc. paid by the taxes of hard-working Americans?



I can see both side. The reason against doing it, is that it is very bad for the country. The reason for doing it is because we have a government of the people and Trump won the election and he continues to give all these welfare benefits to everyone. So until we find politicians who end our welfare state and put them in elected positions, we know it's going to continue

🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️

We don’t need any immigrants with 10 kids who are dirt poor and would just suck off the government teet.

I’m no fan of the welfare state in this country and thats obviously something we should be fixing. It’s not like Trump is just giving it out. It’s been part of the system. He inherited a ****ed up system. You can’t blame him for trying to fix the system, while you have these bat-s*** crazy liberals in the government (like AOC) who’re pushing for more social nonsense like UBI and whatnot.

"Bat-s*** crazy"? UBI polls close to 50%. Trump polls around 40%.

The president does not decide welfare benefits. The legislature does that.
