Why?
Since I was the one who used that phrase in this thread, I'm assuming you're talking to me.
It's not just you, AF, it's all of the other communists on the "R" side as well. You just happened to say what I hear all of the time.
Many points can be valid, but overridden by just as valid and more immediate concerns.
"Swimming is healthful exercise, and you should do it at least once a day."
"Yeah, but the water is full of sharks."
Yeah, border walls and living in isolation are much safer too. "If you go first, I
might go next".
Being an avid diver, I swim with sharks all of the time. No biggie to me, I don't live under a shell or in a cage. Maybe come up with a better analogy.
I'm assuming that solution is ending handouts and benefits that the invaders get?
Well...

This is one of the few issues that Ron got wrong, especially in today's climate.

Take a close look...most of them have that already.
They are being weaponized by Marxist agitators supported by NGOs from around the world, to "march right in and take back what the gringo stole from your ancestors."
That's where Ron has it wrong: you could end every single government handout, and they would still be invading by the millions, regardless.
The government goody bag is just a lagniappe.
I call complete and utter bullshit. As a traveler, I come across people of all walks of life. Sure, they are as indoctrinated as Amerikuntz, but a lot of them
do in fact come to visit, vacation,,, seek a better way of life based on the false illusion of what this country once stood for. Stop the incentives, you'd see how quickly the riff-raff stop coming. Difficult concept, but true nonethelesss.
I speak to "repubs" all of the time. It's the same GD rhetoric. "Yes, it would be great if we stopped the incentives,
but..." along with "we
still need a wall and
more federal agents". And not one of them call their reps to complain about their tax dollars funding this crap. Because as I stated above, people have no morals, and would rather promote the statist solution, even if/when it means losing their right to travel freely, among other freedoms. The "Constitution-Free Zone" around the entire country, it's not foreigners ripping our freedom out from under us - it's red-blooded Amerikuntz doing it themselves.
So, I will keep popping popcorn, because there's not a damned thing I can do about it. But I utterly
refuse to be complicit along with the rest of them.
