It bears repeating. A lot.[/quote]

No, it does not.  The caravan isn't headed for Ellis Island.  They are planning on sneaking over the border like criminals.[/quote]
 
They're planning on turning themselves in to ask for asylum.  That's hardly "sneaking."

Have you actually talked to any of them?  Or listened to reporters' interviews with any of them? [b] Heartbreaking stories of murder and rape and threats and traumatized children.

But when you have no heart then it can't be broken.  So good on you for your callousness toward fellow human beings.[/b][/quote]

I feel very sorry for these people. I truly do. But in all honesty what exactly do you propose we do? Would you propose letting anyone into the US who has heartbreaking stories of murder, rape and threats of traumatized children? Because that is happening all over the world. [/quote]

Turning a blind eye to the suffering of people is not what Great America about. We certainly can be as bad as Saudi Arabia - but I hope that's not our ideal.[/quote]

Ok so my question remains- what exactly do you propose we do? Would you propose letting anyone into the US who has heartbreaking stories of murder, rape and threats of traumatized children? Please answer that.

Yes I would. The people who come to this country to escape poverty from Europe and committed Native American genocide should not have a greater right to this land than someone else is trying to escape poverty/violence and begging asylum.[/quote]

Another liberal who can't separate emotion from legal reality.[/quote]

NP here: Generally agree  as to her inability to separate her feelings from reality.

However, she sounds far more extreme than many liberals; even the typical DC bubble-dwelling type liberals. [/quote]
