    Again, if that's not enough to point you in the right direction, then there are deeper issues here than a logical debate on the facets of immigration policy.

    You can't even clearly identify what your own point is. Deeper issues indeed.

    Once again. If you couldn't be fucked to actually, you know, read the dozen or so posts in question, or if you choose to blatantly disregard the summary I conveniently provided for you (and have pointed out twice now), then this becomes an exercise in futility. My refusal to rehash what's already been rehashed for 6 pages now shouldn't be construed as conceding. I just don't see the point in putting in the effort when you've already demonstrated a tendency to ignore what's right in front of your face.

    This is further reinforced by your insistence on presuming that because I choose not to make the effort, then that clearly means my point is invalidated (that's called denying the antecedent, if you're interested in that sort of thing).

    Great video! Just shows who the true patriots are, and clearly the MAGAts aren't among them.

    So by your own logic we should get rid of all the people on welfare or criminals right? Or all the people who just don't amount to anything. So that would be about 3/4th of a certain group with an ancestry from a continent south of Europe right? I also notice a lot of people from the lands south of Texas in prison or on welfare, so a bunch of them go Too, right? Then we have the people on mmo champion who claim they can't work, due to some fake mental state, yet they are able to play wow and post all day. They all go, right?

    I've seen this before, but its scary when things ring true to current events...

    "And when the time was right, Hitler went to war... not by declaring war... but through a carefully orchestrated sneak attack..."

    I mean, aside from the carefully orchestrated part....

    The point being made is if we're going to kick out/allow in people with the goal of improving our country and our way of life, then the logical way of doing so would be to judge them based on what they bring to the table. So in your case, the question wouldn't be "Do we deport 3/4 of those that descend from that continent south of Europe", but rather "Do we deport those that can't hold down a job, or that get frequently arrested for public intoxication or vandalism, or that otherwise take more from society than they contribute".

    The exercise being proposed is to remove race entirely from the process of deciding who's allowed to stay, and instead judge them on their merit. This would apply to everyone equally, born within the country or not.

    That's a dumbass argument. Let's just get rid of all borders and ignore all laws.

    Best way to make America great again, is to start with yourself.

    The US is great for some people and really horrible for a lot of other people. It is also constantly doing it's part to make things horrible for people further down the line in and out of the country.

    How is it anger pointing out the obviously flaw in your argument, or should I say lack of argument. You have no way to defend such a trash ideology which is why you deflected. Even Obama acknowledge we need boarding security.

    I see you're side stepping from your argument again, I guess no point in discussing it then.

    Lol. You're accusing him of doing something he isn't doing. How exactly is he supposed to respond?

    1947? Top tax bracket was 86.45% for everything above 200K. Lowest bracket was 19%.

    I'd love to see Ryan's eyes bug out when Trumps drops that on his desk. "Here ya go, Ron. Isn't it fabulous?"

    A novel ides! Let us round up all the poor people and other undesirables (as determined by our congress and government, who Know Best™) and get rid of them.
    We must make room for the more valuable, our chosen master race, if you will.

    I still think this should be mandatory viewing in public schools.
