I will send them by thoughts and prayers..... Seriously though, I was told by the church that everything happens for a reason. So of anything bad happens to them they need to take that up with their God and no one else. They have an omnipotent god on their side. So if he just lets them get slaughtered it was his will being done. Maybe they didn't read the Bible enough. Maybe one of their neighbors has gay sex. It's everyone's fault but their all powerful God.

Godless people like you are the saddest of people.

Just an endless void of emptiness.

Yeah man - it’s ok to poke and prod a superpower for decades crossing multiple lines and then just fake outrage when they respond.

Russia ain't a superpower anymore. They can't even win a war vs their neighbor using traditional means. Only through getting Putins bitch in the White House can they win.

Russia is literally winning right now against a combined offensive of the NATO powers and if you think Russia is going balls to the wall then you’re an idiot.

I find your lack of faith disturbing. I don't see why you are mad at me for telling religious people to practice what they preach. The answer is most of you know it's BS but you just refuse to admit it for social reasons. But I am somehow the bad guy for pointing it out.

Oh yeah, they won. That was clear on election day. When soe that 1 day start when Trump ends the war? He is already conducting foreign policy so shouldn't it have ended already. Or should I wait until his second day in office?

100% of illegal immigrants have committed a crime. So whatever data you are trying to pass off is quite clearly not accurate.

Have you ever jaywalked, Carp? Littered perhaps? Exceeded the speed limit? I’m going to go out on a limb and say every single one of us has committed at least one crime.

History is filled with terrible things and redrawn boundaries. But we’ve reached a point where we should know better than to kill others to take their land. It’s pretty ****ing simple.

Define "we."

Cause humans will never get to a point where wars and taking land are not common place. It's a simple fact of human nature and any argument otherwise is naive.

If you mean "we" as in the West, well that is also being naive. In the last 100 years, the US has been involved in no less than half a dozen wars against what we would consider to be "power hungry tyrants", and new borders were drawn as a result of those wars. But the definition of "power hungry tyrants" can also depend on your point of view.

I've never committed a felony though. I would venture to say that the vast majority of native born Americans have never committed a felony.

Aiding in the transporting of illegals over the border, is a felony though. Illegal re-entries over the border is a felony. Harboring illegal immigrants is also a felony. Obtaining and possessing forged/stolen federal documents is a felony.

Shall I go on?

Not to mention, whatever data you are including is likely to be inaccurate. Who even keeps up with criminal data for illegal immigrants? How is it is formulated? Seems like there would be a lot of missing information.

You didn’t say committed a felony, you said committed a crime. I do not magically take felonies more seriously than misdemeanors if it’s not causing me any harm, such as an illegal re-entry.

Well you were the one who wanted to qualify things. And the court system does take felonies more seriously than misdemeanors, so I am not sure why your position on that is relevant. We make a distinction between these 2 things for a reason.

Illegal immigrants are criminals by virtue of being illegal immigrants. That is simply a fact. And by virtue of coming here illegally, they must also commit many more crimes just to live here (some more serious, such as obtaining illegal government documents and forging federal paperwork). These are fairly serious that a native born American would absolutely be jailed for.

And it IS in fact costing you harm. To the tune of 150 billion annually. Not to mention the added secondary cost it does to everything else like housing, rent, etc.

Ballers are gonna pay all that 150 billion back from 2023 back with interest I've heard.

The citizens of Chicago are getting a hefty tax hike with no increase in benefits to show for it LOL
