The situation at the border is either;
1) A catastrophe in the making.
2) All a phony story to get more money for a Wall. There is no urgency and all is well.
There are two types of people trying to get in;
1) Those going through legal channels to gain access to the country and eventual citizenship.
2) Those entering illegally and claiming they are seeking asylum due to whatever their story is.
Let’s examine the situation at the border. According to Democrats, there is no problem at the border and we can absorb all those illegally crossing to gain a better life. Those reporting from local stations (TV and radio) examine what border officials at the scene are saying about the onslaught of hordes of people coming in and claiming asylum.
The shelters for temporary housing, food, and medical help are above capacity. The local municipalities are saying they are overwhelmed and cannot keep up, neither with capacity nor with funding. The local hospitals and schools are overwhelmed with illegals taking beds and spots in classrooms.
The courts give the asylum seekers a date for returning to adjudicate their application for asylum and are released to return at a later time. A high percentage, a reported 90%, never return for their appointed court dates. Of course that is one report, some say the majority return. What is the truth? Do you trust the media to report the truth?
If it is as the Democrats explain, why the divergent view from locals and border officials on scene? Who has the most to gain by lying? You decide. I put my money on the Democrats to gain more support (and possible votes) and to overwhelm the system to get more people dependent on government support. Who votes to have the gravy train end?
Let’s examine the people trying to get in the United States. I have no doubt some may want to enter the land of opportunity to build a better life for themselves and loved ones. I also harbor no reservations there are many that want to enter for fast money, drugs, criminal activity and police with rules.
Lately, Africans, Chinese, and others are being seen on the border trying to enter. The Africans have rolls of $100 bills (can you say George Soros?) That little weasel seems to have his hands in everything non-American and trying to turn the country to socialism/communism/Marxist. He had an ally in President Obama and was sure to continue under Clinton, but that damned Trump won the election! Have no doubt,s Americans, the Democrats and RINO’s want socialism. And they love Soros’ money.
President Trump and most Americans agree with legal immigration based on merit. The need for a person’s education and skills to help the economy grow and become American citizens is good for everyone. That also includes some at the lower economic scale, but that is most of what is coming across now. Those folks sometimes end up becoming a drag on the economy and services if they cannot support themselves and their families.
The border states are in peril. Not enough funding to support those at the border area. Just recently, Mexico has agreed to more soldiers at the southern Mexican border to stop those from entering Mexico and eventually to the U.S. We are at war, not with guns and warfare, but with words and rhetoric.
The people in their respective countries don’t deserve the drug lords or criminals to shear them like sheep. But the U.S. is not the salvation for the world. Just like U.S. residents at the time of the Revolution (mostly English citizens), they must take back their countries from oppressors. And make their countries into what they want for themselves and their families. We did it against England, France, and Spain. They need to do it with their internal enemies.
I propose to President Trump this: Stop all foreign aid to all countries and spend all the money on veterans and homeless, instead of giving it to dictators and tyrants. Open drug and alcohol rehabilitation centers with the money. Spend it on our own people. You folks saying we need to have Christian values and hearts, I agree. Not any more Christian than helping others help themselves. Then we can talk about changing immigration laws to only allow those people who do it the right way and get in line.
And build the Wall. Prisons have walls to keep prisoners in. Celebrities/politicians have walls/high fences on their properties to keep others out. We need to do the same on the border. Walls work, always have, always will. Along with a border patrol supported and financed to provide excellent service protecting the country.
Only then will we have a southern border worth having and keeping other countries citizens where they belong…. in their own country making changes for positive outcomes.
The rotting of America from within continues…
