Liberal students want Georgia professor fired for criticizing illegal immigration
If we had more immigrants like this professor our national average IQ would be going up instead of down!

ICE preparing to raid 10 major cities
This is more of a political stunt than an actual attempt to capture massive numbers of illegals. The idea is to get political leaders in the cities and states where these raids will take place to make statements opposing the raids. This will expose them as willful opponents to border security and cost them political points.

sandman: That's a good point. If the idea was to catch as many illegals as possible, then publicity would be the last thing you'd want to do. I wonder if it is possible to charge those interfering with the raids with some kind of criminal infraction and to possibly even remove some of them from office. Willful interference with the activities of federal law enforcement authorities could be seen as treason, for instance.

Feelings don't care about your facts
The best antidote against propaganda is logic, but most people never get there. Once caught off guard by an emotional appeal, many people cannot think logically.

Migrant Children Allege Sexual Assault And Retaliation At Border Detention Center | NBC Nightly News
Any pathetic scumbag can make a false accusation and the world comes screeching to a halt. We're idiots for giving false accusers the power to manipulate us through the use of this tactic. I say make conditions in these centers so miserable that the illegals beg to be sent back to where they came from. We need to be far more aggressive in fighting off this foreign invasion!

Supreme Court Hands President Trump Strategic Border Wall Decision
This seems quite reasonable to me. Many have characterized the constant flow of illegals as an invasion and so using military resources seems entirely justified.

13-year-old survivor of Mexican ambush that killed 9 describes harrowing ordeal
I've heard bits and pieces of this story for the last week or so, but this report seems to tell the full story. It's very sad that Mexico has allowed these drug cartels to run rampant. Hopefully this is a wake up call which will put things in motion to squash these crime organizations out of existence.

Should Mexican cartels be labeled as terrorists ?
If Mexico can't solve it's problems, then maybe they need a little help! Send the drones!!!

ergot: Not a bad idea. It's not clear if Mexico is incapable of solving its problems or if its leaders are just corrupt. Probably both. So, they could probably use a little assistance.
