According to the Oxford dictionary, "The inability or refusal to recognize the rights, needs, dignity, or value of people of particular races or geographical origins." He is refusing to recognize my dignity, value, and rights due to my geographical origins. THerefore, he is a racist.

You make no sense. If I got citizenship, how could I be deported? You are telling me what I can and cannot say based on my nationality. That makes you a racist.

Nope. His target is the Biden-Harris administration's terrible immigration policy in general. Part is the illegals flooding the border. Part is the far too easy process to enter under various schemes. Notably, the Harris campaign is completely silent on their policy and positions on immigration. Their surrogates (who answer for the acutal candidates) say nothing other than the usual bromides and platitudes.

Apples and oranges. Yeah, the city was shrinking, as many small cities in the midwest are doing. But the answer is not to import 15,000 people who do not speak English, have little cultural knowledge of the area, and drain the public coffers. Not to mention living 20 to a house and displacing the original residents.

Are they actually vetted? They were brought in under the CHNV plan, but what was the vetting process? In any case, the strain on the schools, hospitals, and social services is undeniable.

Maybe you missed this before, but I wrote; Not sure if it is a five star anymore, but the iconic Roosevelt Hotel in NYC. Or The Row New York City. I believe it was a 4 star, but will that do in a pinch? More than 1300 rooms, the city is paying $5 million a month to rent the whole place as an immigrant shelter.The Crowne Plaza at JFK airport is getting $2 million a month as a shelter as well. Average payout is about $350 per room per night overall in the city. Obviously "five star hotel" is a euphemism. The broader and more important point is that illegal immigrants are being housed in, shall we say 'luxury', accommodation at taxpayer expense. While American homeless and poor are left on the street and in shelters.

As usual. Ignore the inconvenient part (years of student deferrals) and focus only on the picayune details of each man's medical deferment. Ignoring the fact that they both had every opportunity to go and fight but chose not to. Same as many well off young men in similar circumstances.

...and both used the same dodge to avoid the draft for years. Nothing will change THAT either.

Yeah, there is. Both could have volunteered to serve. Both declined.

You may want to check out an interesting youtube channel by a young man called Cash Jordan. He reports on NYC from the ground, what is happening these days.

Wasn't me. It was another poster, Interpland (sp) who started it with a snide comment about Trump and his bone spurs. You are scolding the wrong person.

Both used legitimate student deferments. Both, at any time, could have chosen NOT to use their student deferments and volunteered to go to Vietnam. Both used their student deferments as long as possible and then washed out for medical reasons. One was an asthmatic lifeguard, the other a bone spur plagued baseball player. Let's put this 50 year old meme to rest, shall we?

Newsweek had an interesting 'on the ground' report from Springfield. The Haitians displace locals by working cheap. Housing spirals as 20-25 people often occupy one dwelling. etc etc. https://www.newsweek.com/springfield-emblematic-americas-immigration-death-spiral-opinion-1953366

Yeah, that nasty asthma that Joe's doctor said he had ten years before... I am sure totally legit. Be honest, both avoided the war by student deferments as long as they could. Either could have volunteered for service at any time, but chose not to.

The article also notes the huge growth in social services, welfare etc being used. Also health care and education being overwhelmed. And housing being priced out of reach of residents. Of course business leaders were happy to see them- a compliant workforce they could exploit for low wages that the residents would not accept.

Or ol' Joe, who could have foregone any of his five years of student deferment to serve his country. But somehow chose not to...

Yeah, can't argue with you there. I have seen the light! Gonna throw my support behind Kamala now.

Actually, Trump only dodged the draft 4 times. It was Biden who dodged 5 times. But that is not really important.

AFAIK the Georgia law has the usual exceptions for rape incest etc. Also doctors are fully allowed to help any woman in distress or having health issues. I think the two victims were sadly misinformed by the media and believed the hysteria peddled by abortion supporters like Harris. So if you want to lay any blame, that is the place to start.

I have?

I can tell you one. Axios (hardly a Trump supporting organization) recently asked the Harris campaign about her position on immigration- getting the Dreamers citizenship and expanding amnesty for illegals. She refused to answer, and refused to even talk to Axios about the subject. https://www.axios.com/2024/09/23/harris-dreamer-protections-immigration

Nah, his diapers are lined with platinum and aluminum. Covers up all embarrassing wafts. Being rich has its privileges!

More like the pungent aroma of bullsh!t overpowering the smell of the roses.

Ah, the uninformed paranoia of the belligerently ignorant. Nice to see it on full display.
