Given how many of the rapes are perpetrated by border patrol/customs officers, I’m not sure that putting more security personnel at the border will reduce the rape numbers. |
How many is that? Any stats? Please cite and source these numbers? |
Um, go read the article. |
President won't do it. As a businessman, he loves the cheap illegal labor. |
If it isn't an issue to be addressed, why has the US, Rs and Ds, been talking about it for so long? What you call it is just semantics. |
You don’t get it. No one says illegal immigration is good. You will not fix illegal immigration until countries in South America, Central America, and Mexico provide a safe environment, stable economy, and most importantly hope. Americans do not know what it is to not have hope. |
Trump has hired illegal immigrants for many years till the jig was recently up. |
It sounds like you're saying it's an unfortunate situation in the scheme of things, but because of the terrible circumstances in that part of the world, trying to stop or limit it into the US is not the right or moral choice. We certainly cannot provide a safe environment, stable economy, or provide hope in a big chunk of the world. So, while you can say illegal immigration is "not good," you also seem to be saying, "we must allow it." And I appreciate your honesty, tbh, because this is what I think most Dems believe. |
You conveniently didn't answer the question. Since Obama allegedly did nothing and this is so important to your GOP why didn't they do anything during the two years they had complete control? |
+1 And when Trump references things like this story, he is roundly mocked by liberals. Did you see their reactions to him during the SOTU when he brought up the sexual assaults at the border? They rolled their eyes like he was making it all up. Disgusting people. Thankful this article is from the NYT - the liberal bible. Hopefully they'll believe it. |
DP. If YOU have an ounce of intellectual honesty: how is the woman in this article being "used" to support lies? Are you saying none of this happened to her (and other women)? Are you saying she's lying?? |
Maybe read the bolded - MOST of these women are attacked by the migrant smugglers. A convenient fact to ignore, right? |
Exactly. Anything to try and shut down discussion of what's going on at the border. |
You mean the five referred to in the article? SMDH. |
And what, exactly, are South and Central America and Mexico doing to provide these things to THEIR people? Why are WE somehow to blame? Hint: we're not. |
