How many more Ukrainians should die before they make a deal? They have lost almost 14,000 civilians and 400,000 troops (estimates). And why do you get to hoose if they accept the deal or not? Zelinsky is willing to talk. Putin is willing to talk. The US and EU appear to back the directions these talks are going. I am looking around here, and the only people I see calling for an escalation of war are western liberals. Since when did western liberals become war hawks?

Texas Redistricting
gatomontes99 replied to gatomontes99's topic in State Politics in the United States
They already have. They are pretty much tapped out. -
That is the definition of illegal aliens. And breaking the law does nake you a criminal. Ah, this is such a wonderful justification. The good ole "well, I think that's how it should be so, clearly, every other rational person thinks the same way as I do" argument. It is a good debate technique to eliminate elevating your opinion by falsely attributing it to every rational person. All you are accomplishing is a backhanded insult. The reality is that what you call "plenty of justification for a rational person" wasn't enough justification to be codified into law. We do have exemptions for refugees and political asylum. Poverty and gangs are not listed.

He was arrested under Trump's first term, denied asylum. But he was allowed to stay and work in California. He was even given a CDL. Sanctuary state policies killed three people in Florida. Yes, we have bad truck drivers that have no immigration issues. But how much does this man feel above the law because nothing stopped him from breaking our immigration law, getting a CDl and working despite laws forbidding it? What is a sign that says "No U-Turn, Official Vehicles only" to a guy that hasnt had to follow any laws to get to that situation? As an aside; in south Texas, the most important insurance you can have is uninsured driver. Aka illegals smash and go insurance. The illegal aliens can't get insurance, so when they hit you (and they are already driving a beat up piece of shìt) they just drive off. They have a fake or stolen tags so you can't track them. Either you have uninsured driver insurance or you pay for it yourself.

According to ChatGPT...

The thing about AI is that it is "trained" by the internet. That means it takes opinions on the internet and then adds validity by espousing it as though it was facts produced by an "all knowing" computer. -
Nope, no one is saying that. How did you come up with that? Yes it does. It was proven, in a court of law, that their asylum claims are not asylum. Just saying asylum does not make it legal. They have to meet a specific set of criteria. Per the law, those are not exceptions to our immigrations laws.
-
Yes they are. Roughly 90% of asylum cases are denied. They are violating immigration law. Yes. We have to treat everyone with compassion. Sometimes, compassion comes in the form of rejection. Or do you happen to get all of your prayers answered? When we reject asylum claims and make it clear that the people that cross our borders illegally won't get in and if they do, they cant stay, we prevent a lot of suffering. Women and girls are raped on the journey. Many end up sex slaves in our borders. Men and boys end up as drug mules. People that can't pay have their families threatened by the cartels. Don't forget about the people that die on the journey. Whether from starvation, snake bites, drowning, dehydration or just getting shot by the cartels. The horror that comes from trying to skirt the law is far worse than deportation. We are saving lives and treating people with dignity by preventing them from making a grave mistake. You call it mistreatment. Does that mean you think that rape, slavery and death is a fate we should allow? Is that treating them well? God denies prayers because we can't see our fate. If we do the same for these people, why are we going against God?
-
Actually, you can. That is what the law says. We are a sovereign country. Did you have to use an AI search to come up with that? Proverbs 28:4 "Those who forsake the law praise the wicked, but those who keep the law strive against them." So now what? They are violating the law. That is the way of the wicked.
-
And they are. But they are also deporting the illegal aliens that associate with the criminals and anyone else that is easy to round up. Because staying in the country,.without permission, is illegal. They are to varying degrees. What lie? Is it possible you came up with a line that you thought was irrefutable and you are just repeating it over and over, hoping someone will believe it? It said foreigners, not illegal aliens. I have no problems with foreigners. I have problems with people that violate the laws.

Not even a stretch. From the cost to the government, to housing shortages, to increased demand for food and services, to strained social services, to petty crime and violent crime, there isn't a single person on the US that hasnt had to pay a price for illegal immigration. What makes you think Trump had anything to do with illegal immigration? He campaigned on fixing the problem that we all wanted fixed. He didn't invent the problem. He leveraged it. He won because it was a real issue we cared about and finally found someone that would do something about it. Those studies were found to be inaccurate because they underestimated illegal immigrants living in Texas AND they only counted those that had known immigration status at the time of conviction. Many were later discovered to have been in the country illegally.

Nope Biden's admin demanded the troops pull out for a photo op and speech to be given right after that. The deaths were a result of careless and reckless decisions by a politically motivated admin rather than reaching their military objectives. Her grief was properly directed. Joe Biden was responsible for those troops and he allowed his admin to make grave errors that got 13 service members killed.
-
Are you forgetting that he sent Kamala to make stern warnings and damn near the next day Russia invaded? I say damn near, it was literally 4 days later. No one respected the Biden admin. No one believed they would do any thing real. I saw him, that's not what he said. He said that escalating the war and the sanctions would not deter Russia. There was some talk of sanctioning those that work with Russia, in an attempt to further isolate Russia. I honestly believe that it would be better to bring Russia into NATO. That is ironic, given NATO's charter. But, if they feel comfortable that they won't be attacked and if they have real consequences if they try to attack others, that could (emphasis on could) make them more western friendly. I get that they've been bad actors. Maybe there is some penalty or probationary phase that could come along with that. The reality is, we can't change the regime without dire consequences. So, we either get everyone on the same page, even if that means giving up a little sometime or we stay in a perpetual state of war and thousands of people die every year. Should we just keep up the killing? Is that what you want? Does it look like that though? That sounds like something the TDS planted in your brain. Dude...Biden was all about the corruption going on in Ukraine. To be fair, a lot of Democrats and Republicans were all about the corruption going on in Ukraine. Our swamp helped spark this war.

Why Do I Support Israel?
gatomontes99 replied to gatomontes99's topic in Federal Politics in the United States
Lmao...the desperation just drips from your post. If Palestinians didn't chant death to Israel and death to America, I might be convinced. -
This is what Israeli's do while staying in America and protesting violence against Jews. This is what Palestinians do.

Those individual humans collectively violated our rights as a sovereign nation. Why do you thinknthey should be a protected class and our citizens should be forced to be victims?
