State….good for them. I hope the governor has the brass ones to see this through

I have no idea what you’re trying to say.

Why would the federal government purposely make it easier for illegal immigrants to flood the state of Texas? In fact, why would they go to the extent of removing a barricade, the state of Texas put up which did in fact stop the illegal immigrants from coming into the state for a few days. Does the state have a right to protect its borders from illegal immigrants?

Wasn’t that particular issue handled by Mexican authorities and US wasn’t informed until 30 minutes after the bodies were found meaning the US couldn’t have done anything anyway?  

And the feds are supposed to have access to a lot of things. For example, when an illegal alien is arrested and it’s determined he’s in the country illegally isn’t he supposed to be turned over to ICE? But some states are refusing to do so. What’s the difference between Texas refusing to follow federal guidelines by putting up razor wire and other states refusing to handover illegal aliens to ICE?

There really isn’t a difference is there? Both states have decided to pick and choose what federal laws or guidelines regarding citizens or non-citizens in their state that they’re going to follow. One state disregards law and refuses to hand it illegal aliens to ice, another state refuses to allow illegals to flow across their border by putting up barricades. They’re both essentially doing the exact same thing.

But the logic is correct, wouldn’t you agree? Both are ignoring federal law or at the very least federal guidelines.

Well, that really doesn’t freaking matter to the surviving family members of the ones that were killed now does it?…..

And that really doesn’t matter given the topic we’re talking about now does it?

That barbed wire is there for a reason. It means no access. I am completely in favor of rescuing people in need, but I also think that you can hang up a sign that says that if you have passed this line, then you are completely on your own, because we cannot get through either. Then you can still do it. helping people, but under the same conditions that they were willing to violate. You can be gentle, but then you shouldn't complain that there is an immigration problem.
Then you should indeed say that we are going to receive the imigrants, provide them with a job, train them, give them a house, provide them with a good pension scheme and then build better roads to accommodate the influx of imigrants.

Where do you draw the line?

I'll just put it down because I see that it doesn't work for us. We have taken in a lot of refugees here, to a point where we can say more is not possible without causing problems, but we are forced by the government to take in immigrants than we can,t handle. I'm not going to work on that.

My question then is who benefits from this? The government, who doesn't want to make difficult decisions?

I have always wanted to stay out of these types of discussions, but for how long can that be? Isn't there something seriously wrong if you have to wonder? And doesn't that call for serious measures?
Is doing nothing an option? Or is that a decision that you give up.
I think there are no humane solutions to immigration problems if you fail as a government.

I am therefore in favor of electing a government that combats immigration at all costs. Because that kind of violence is already starting to emerge, but in a different way.
