I like how you totally failed to address the sexual assault of a 6-year old girl and subsequently forcing her to sign a disclaimer stating that she is responsible to protect herself against sexual assault.

What has that got to do with anything? The abuser is another immigrant's child. Exacly the reason why they shouldn't allow these types to entre the US as you never know what you get. It isn't even clear what happened, "sexual assault" can be anything these days.
The way the leftie outrage machine is going I almost thought they caught an ICE agent in the act of raping the poor girl.

You post the facts about it.
1) Not wanting illegal immigration into your country is not a position of racism.
2) Uncontrolled immigration is not a good thing for society. It can fuel racial tensions.
3) It isn't racist to state that immigration will not solve the world's problems. (See the gumball immigration video)
4) Stating b.s reasons for immigration like "Diversity" adds fuel to the fire.

1. Agreed.
2. Nobody is proposing uncontrolled immigration. And claiming that immigration should be stopped because it might cause racial tensions, really? How about addressing the real problem, namely the actual racists?
3. Agreed.
4. Diversity is a positive of immigration. Which parts of America have the most problem with immigration - the areas of mostly homogeneous race, or the ones of mixed races? More diverse population mixing would expose both sides of the immigration debate to the other side's viewpoints and affect them, which would make for a more informed debate.

People aren't allowed to flee crime-ridden countries for better countries unless the crime rate they're fleeing is higher than an arbitrary figure set by konfab... better let the UN know!

Whats with the rights obsession of Ocasio-Cortez? Ocasio-Cortez derangement syndrome?

She is just a convenient exemplar of the Democrat party. Namely the complete inability to do basic math (which we all know, good comrade, is a creation of the patriarchy designed to oppress woman and black people).

Its weird how all of a sudden words suddenly matter when dealing with her.

They probably got a glimpse of exactly how retarded the gibmedats are when they voted en mass to "feel the Bern", best to eradicate socialism before you wake up in Venezuela ...

cracker's post illustrates the herd stupidity that gets people like her elected:

This is scary for American Democrat’s Socialists. No thought process at all.

It's also weird how actions don't matter when dealing with Trump as well.

She hasn't done anything, so words are the only thing she has. In due time, I am pretty sure she will be quite happy to vote those evil nasty rich white people out of their money.

To add.

Sometimes, like with socialist and other people with mental illnesses, who is threatening to shoot up schools you have to act on their words, waiting for them to follow through with actions can be deadly.

I wont say it will never happen but im highly confident it wont happen in the US. Even if a socialist became president, i don't believe they would have the power to push through policies that are overly socialist. Just look at the problems Obama faced when trying to push through anything remotely socialist.

Thats true.

She hasn't done anything, so words are the only thing she has. In due time, I am pretty sure she will be quite happy to vote those evil nasty rich white people out of their money.

People are trying to make out thats shes way more important than she actually is.

Lol, why did you write half of it in Cyrillic and the other half in butchered pronunciation?

You're probably right, and the reason it won't happen is in part due to the push back that you were questioning earlier.

I'm not so sure about that. If democratic socialist policies weren't gaining traction I don't think Bernie Sanders would have garnered nearly as much support as he did in 2016. Ocasia Cortez won a primary she wasn't even running in through write-ins.

Lol, why did you write half of it in Cyrillic and the other half in butchered pronunciation?

Because I don't speak a word of Russian

 

[NarrowBandFtw]

Best remedy that, you're gonna need it after WW3

 

[rietrot]

Best remedy that, you're gonna need it after WW3

Past world wars would suggest that Russia fights on the good side and the US needs to come in and safe the Europe from Germany taking over.

WW3 will be Russia and US destroy each other and Germany takes over and France surrender in record time.

Obamacare was highly watered down and faced a push back for a long time.

Its probably about 20% of the country that supports socialist policies.

 

[cerebus]

Obamacare was highly watered down and faced a push back for a long time.

And yet it's hugely popular and Trump was unable to repeal it.

Its probably about 20% of the country that supports socialist policies.

Where did you pull that figure from?
