    For proof, you go back to the statement which I made originally.

    Some things do not require proof. Just common sense will work. A refugee is not likely to go to a country where the standard of living is low. Common sense.

    But the processing is what the OP is about. If you want to talk about something else, open your own thread.

    But every claim requires arguments.

    Common sense is useless unless you understand the basic facts. And you lack so many that it would take...

    Anyway... just read the OP. It's just a start, but it has enough facts to blow your "common sense" out of the water.

    This right here is the reason why I generally avoid these discussions about immigration, because at the root of their thinking, once you eliminate all the BS talking points they regurgitate from right wing media, what you're left with is pure unadulterated bigotry.

    Despite all the facts, charts and numbers, they prefer to believe the lies because it fuels their hidden racism. They in their heart of hearts see Hispanics as less than human, which is why they don't bat an eye at having children taken away from their parents. All it does is trigger a Fox News talking point regurgitated on cue. Disgusting!

    Why is it that we have no problem on the northern border? People see no need to go to a location with a similar living standard. Just the opposite with the southern border.

    Nope.

    I'm all for kicking a potato-faced ginger kid illegal immigrant from Ireland out of the country just the same as a Hispanic from wherever who's here illegally.

    I don't care if you're purple with green polka dots and you came from Mars, if you're in America illegally, beat it.

    So that pretty much blows that nonsense out of the water.

    You compared the US to a third world country. You said they did not have long lines, but we did. I pointed out the reason. It had nothing to do with them managing better. Why don't you just admit it was a bad example?

    The only step that prevented this bill was a TOTALLY partisan poiltica move by Boehnner.

    Are you saying Boehner did that because of Reagan? I see that as absolutely silly.

    The far more likely aspect was that Obama was president, and making a huge stride on immigration during his administration was something he couldn't allow - regardless of the benefit to America.

    AND, the major point here is that fully bipartisan committees in the House and Senate addressed this issue successfully.

    Those seeking asylum have never been charged for their method of arrival.

    This Trump thing is a whole new anti-American xenophobic white supremacist nonsense.

    We are a nation of immigrants, our success has been based on immigration, and we need immigration today.

    And, I'm saying that your excuse is an insult to Boehner and defies all logic.

    Um who am I insulting? Wow, you certainly have an odd way of interpreting something as simply as
    Then again, they didn't call John Boehner a Reagan Conservative for nothing, right ;) ¯\_(º¸º)_/¯

    You're suggesting that Boehner held a grudge since REAGAN!!

    And, that's an insult.

    Those seeking asylum are to apply at the first Nation they come to where an embassy is there for the nation to which they are applying. You are spreading the Marxist lies and you can take your " xenophobic white supremacist" nonsense and put it where the sun don't shine (and I'm not talking about your back porch) That progressive/Marxist nonsense is old and doesn't fly anymore.

    That's an acceptable method, obviously.

    However, ithas always been legitimate for asylum seekers to escape to America in any way they can, and then apply here.

    So you deny abortion has anything to do with the lack of a labor force from legal Americans? A factual comment would be that abortion has removed millions of souls from this nation in the last 20 years. Liberal fear baiting has young Americans to afraid to procreate......that is a factual comment where narcisissism enters the picture.
