    Why don't you post a link to whatever poll you are reading. And maybe the page as well.

    I thought it was OBVIOUS that I was reading the same poll that I linked and you referred to earlier. You said you read it. You quoted statistics from it. Are you really that dense?

    Is this not YOU????

    Never mind. You are purposefully being obtuse or else you are dumb as a door nail. either way all you have offered is proof that you can't read a simple poll and you can't track a simple conversation. Too much stupid going on from your end.

    Did you have a problem with the first paragraph? The link is over two hundred pages long and very hard to read so why not just post whatever link you are using and the page with the data you are quoting,

    Or you could just post the exact question asked in the poll and then list the results. Since you claim to have actually read the entire poll that shouldn't be too difficult for you.

    I have provided the evidence you ask for. You just don't like it so you are ignoring it.

    If my statement was so patently wrong why don't you go ahead and debunk it?

    You've had plenty of time to dig up just one instance of an illegal alien committing an act of terror on American soil.

    Wouldn't you just love to smack this Leftie down? Well, here's your chance.

    Just one instance. That's all I'm asking for.

    This is the real problem, not so much that the rest of the world would figure this rather than that the indigent across Central America would. There are tens of millions of Central American peasants who sensibly appreciate their lives would vastly improve if they could get in to the US, even if they were just washing dishes for less than minimum wage. Everything, from public transportation to cell phone service is vastly superior in the US as it is in Honduras, Nicaragua, Guatemala or El Salvador, public education, healthcare, the police, quality of roads, reliable access to electricity, potable water, healthy food... There's no comparison, and its all just across the border.

    Everyone knows the southern border is easily crossed, I've done it myself with neither a passport or visa, some proportion of vehicular traffic is regularly just flagged through and suddenly you're on the other side and its all wide open. Mexicans are very experienced on this, they deal with the border every day, many have relatives on both sides and are on a first name basis with the enforcement officers on either side. Some adventure into the US and establish themselves (life is better there) others remain near the border and figure out reliable ways to get back and forth, satisfied US wages adequately meet their needs in Mexico or maybe they can get by long enough in 'El Norte'.

    With such a "porous" border comes a certain vulnerability, one hopes the "regulars" are known and won't be affected, but everyone should realize others can exploit the inadequate control. The Wall is not such a bad idea.

    The left does not care if drug runners and terrorists cross the border. They believe Americans deserve whatever they get.

    It sure would help if you could substantiate this, my data shows Bangladesh is overwhelmingly Muslim. I know there are people of other faiths living in Bangladesh, but the most important reason it is independent from India is that it is overwhelmingly Muslim.

    You can say that, but no you have not. Nowhere in that 20 or so pages did it support your claim that "that not a single act of terror has ever been committed by someone here illegally" If it had, I am sure you would have copied and pasted and bolded it specifically.

    Your attempt at debate by data dump, did not prove your claim.

    Great post.

    Moral of the story, in a nutshell... you get more of what you tolerate, and then eventually, you get even more than that.

    Think back to the Regan deal, it was supposed to be a one time thing, look at where we're at now. Our immigration policy and border must be rock solid, otherwise we might as well just give up and let the chips fall where they may.

    LOL! You want me to prove a negative? That's impossible and you know it. How quaint that that's the only debate tactic you have left, however, and it's cute watching you weave and bob to avoid providing any evidence contrary to my original statement. Besides, that's not how this works. I specifically asked you to "prove me wrong" in regards to my statement that no illegal alien has ever committed an act of terror on American soil.

    Surely, that's a simple task, right?

    Why not prove to all of us here that illegal aliens are responsible for just one terror attack within the US?

    I contend that it has never happened, so it's disingenuous of you to ask me to "prove that it didn't".

    We are done here unless you prove your statement and it's not a negative. Records are kept and you made a very specific claim. You just don't understand how a debate forum works.
    If you don't want to be called to task on an unsupported claim, I suggest you either don't make them or support them.

    Your agenda motivating your claim is obvious, you want to pretend people in this country illegally, pose no threat. Tell the angel families, I'm certainly not buying it.

    Nah, they relish the truth.
    What most hate is the tRUMPsters fake truth. Most of them don't know what real factual truth is.

    Apparently not when they publish statistics that challenge right wing rhetoric.

    tRUMPsters never come off as the most honest of people. Afterall, the person they voted for and support doesn't know what a fact or truth is.
    But hey, there are those of us who can call out the fakeness of that group.

    I accept that you concede my point. Talk about "records" all you want as a distraction. If something has never happened, there is, obviously, no record of it not happening. Again, you cannot prove a negative. And, if there was a record of just one illegal committing and act of terror, no doubt you would have found it.

    I know perfectly well how debates work. This isn't a debate, and you should know the difference. This was a request from me to prove that what I stated was wrong.

    You have utterly failed to do that, my motivations or agenda notwithstanding.

    Don't put words in my mouth by stating that I "want to pretend people in this country illegally, pose no threat". I have never said that. What I have stated, and which you have never disproved, is that no incidence of terrorism in the United States can be linked to an illegal alien.

    Again, prove me wrong.

    The old "thanks for conceding" fallacy. It is obvious you cant prove your claim. We are done here, it's like talking to a wall. Go ahead and have the last word.
