Us sending 1500 troops to Mexican border

[Anonymous]

Illegal immigrants are about 10% of the population. This will jump to about 15% under Biden.

Good, better there than in the Ukraine and other places. I hope Trump wins and stations several full battalions and a few garrisons.

We can sue them to round up illegals and send them back and to kill narco-terrorists

Yes fine with. We need to add fresh blood to this country. Too many have become dependent on the state.just look at the republicans party.

Literally every single republican I’ve ever known has been on welfare, disability or some other form of assistance. I’m 33 years old and I have NEVER met a republican who had a job. Not one.

This wins the sarcastic post of the day award.

Oh you wish.

I support immigration. I do think the rate has to be limited. I have no idea what number we can reasonably absorb and support, but I know there is a limiting factor. I can remember the flood of Syrian refugees throwing some European economies into crisis, purely because of their volume, which I think had a destabilizing effect on the EU as a whole.

Once we determine the “correct” number for immigration, then we need to determine how to allot it. I do believe in the Statue of Liberty’s promise. I do believe that most of the people crossing the border sincerely want to build a better life for themselves and their families. I think most of them would eventually make wonderful citizens. Do I think they’d make better citizens than those who follow our immigration procedures, jump through all our hoops, and still wait years for their turn? Would they be better citizens than the Syrian refugees, or the Ukrainian refugees? How about Haitian refugees? Sudan suffered through years of genocide and seems to be destabilizing, I bet there are a lot of desperate people there who would be good citizens. Here’s a crazy idea, how about we make good on our promises to the Afghans who helped us, putting themselves and their while families at risk, because I bet they’d be good citizens too. Maybe we could really go wild and start by granting citizenship to American Samoans - they’ve been good Americans for generations, they’d probably be good citizens too.

The point is, that unless you think we can just open our borders and allow unlimited immigration, hard choices have to be made. There are desperate people all over the world, who would jump at the chance to be good US citizens, because their likely alternative is death. Do we want to limit immigration to Mexican nationals or those coming over our southern border, as a type of good neighbor policy? That’s probably the most racist option available, but from a practical standpoint, it has a certain logic. If that’s going to be our policy, let’s state it and stand behind it. Even if we apportion 100% of our immigration quota to immigration from Mexico, I am dubious that we can accommodate 100% of those wanting to come.

Moreover, we should either enforce our immigration procedures or drop them. It seems like our most common method immigration has become:
1. Sneak over the border.
2. Hide for years from official notice.
3. Wait for an amnesty.
This not only puts the illegal immigrants in tremendous danger, both in coming here and in trying to live here without the safeguards legal residents have, it is a cruel farce to those who are trying to immigrate the way we tell them they should.

Wow,
Well written and thought out post.

Basically if we currently can’t take care of our veterans and can fix the giant homeless issues in NY, LA, San Fran, Portland, and basically everywhere, how can we expect to accommodate millions of migrants?? Yes, eventually many may end up working and contributing, but at the beginning they are on public assistance, public housing, public healthcare paid by the taxpayer. How about we help the people who have served our country and current homeless population first. Heck, I’m sure lots of homeless in NYC would love to be out up in a 4 Star hotel like the migrants are given there?

Overwhelming majority of Mexicans, Guatemalans, Hondurans, Salvadorans that I know work their asses off, and pay their own rent and bills. Even more so than a lot of the slackers who were born and raised here.

Oh, we're doing made-up statistics?

No, illegals don't make up anywhere near 10% of the population, nor is it heading to 15%.

Whoever told you that is 100% full of crap (in this case, the 100% is not a made-up statistic).

Ready to show the Russians how you really take over a country

He is sending them to help bring illegals in? Not keep them out?!

That's not what the article says. They are there to assist CBP. CBP is still in charge.

DP. Essentially, that is exactly why they are being sent; to help expedite their processing, thus allowing them in faster.

Military personnel will do data entry, warehouse support and other administrative tasks so that U.S. Customs and Border Protection can focus on fieldwork, White House spokeswoman Karine Jean-Pierre said Tuesday. The troops “will not be performing law enforcement functions or interacting with immigrants, or migrants,” Jean-Pierre said. “This will free up Border Patrol agents to perform their critical law enforcement duties.”

I think the PP meant "stupidest post of the day." Which is correct.

It is actually 15% of the population. You just look incredibly ignorant. -DP

Their critical law enforcement duties.
Which you have somehow interpreted to mean "let them all in"

Explain to me which word means "let them all in?"

Is it "Law?" Nope.

Is it "Enforcement?" Nope.

Yet somehow you look at those words and read them as "let them all in."

A number without any source citation whatsoever, and WILDLY out of whack with just about every estimate by any credible think tank or policy org, including those advocating for border security and stricter immigration policy.

Almost all of the credible numbers put it between 10 and 12 million, which is only 3%, not 15%.

Of course. They are there for processing. Biden has no intention of keeping migrants out. They are there to help process migrants more quickly.
I predict that border will be in total chaos come May 11. Worse than it is now, and we are now at a crisis level and have been since Biden entered office.

Why would we keep them out if they can legally be here? If they are processed then they are now legal which I thought was what you wanted.

No doubt you think it has stayed steady at 11-12 million for decades.

Note I am including in the count of illegal immigrants people Biden has chosen to grant parole, which they are using as a tool in their open borders agenda.
