Ooooh my goodness. I don't know what to say anymore dear Christy. This is exasperating and so repetitive. So here we go.
If anyone would like to take illegal aliens into their homes, on their property in tents, on blow-up mattresses in their living rooms, wherever
and care for them, please do so.
If anyone would like to pledge X amount of dollars to sponsor, help house, feed, clothe, medicate and educate illegals, please do so.
Whatever a person determines in their own heart to give or donate, let them do it...quietly, secretly and without judgement on
what OTHERS should do.
Just step up to the plate and do what you as an INDIVIDUAL feel is proper for any humanitarian cause.
It's not for our government to condone ILLEGAL activity and thus SPONSOR it or pay for it or FORCE others
to PARTICIPATE in an illegal activity.
Give through private organizations, churches, synagogues who are equipped to handle large scale humanitarian crises.
No person (Dem or Pub) wants to be ordered to give their honestly-earned money to charitable causes.
God himself does not order it either.
"Each one should give what he has decided in his heart to give , not out of regret or compulsion. For God loves a cheerful giver."
2 Cor 9:7
"Be careful not to perform your righteous acts before men to be seen by them. If you do, you will have no reward from your Father in heaven. So when you give to the needy, do not sound a trumpet before you, as the hypocrites do in the synagogues and on the streets, to be praised by men. Truly I tell you, they already have their reward. But when you give to the needy, do not let your left hand know what your right hand is doing, so that your giving may be in secret. And your Father, who sees what is done in secret, will reward you."
Mat 6:1-4

Abortion rights dogma can obscure human reason & harden the human heart so much that the same person who feels
empathy for animal suffering can lack compassion for unborn children who experience lethal violence and excruciating
pain in abortion.
Unborn animals are protected in their nesting places, humans are not. To abort something is to end something
which has begun. To abort life is to end it.

Merit based immigration. We take the brightest, the cream of of the crop.
Those who share our values, speak our language, English, and won't be a burden on the American taxpayers.
How great is that?

Lay down the crack pipe and learn how to follow a thread...

Try quit moving the goal posts.
Communism forces people to remain in that country. If they manage to escape, take them in.
Civil War is...does it have to be spelled out? We had one. Remember hearing about it?
Lawlessness and drugs? We have that HERE. Stay and fight, change laws, become a cop, work to make changes.

Vietnam is a communist country and people are allowed to leave.
Other countries are Cuba, China and Laos. What proof do you have that the people can't leave?231 Stretch: Cuba236 christiefan915: Nope.
As of January 14, 2013, all Cuban government-imposed travel restrictions and controls have been abolished.[55][56]
Since that date, any Cuban citizen, with a valid passport, can leave the country at will, without let or hindrance from the Cuban authorities. Visa requirements for Cuban citizens are administrative entry restrictions by the authorities of other states placed on citizens of Cuba. In 2014, Cuban citizens had visa-free or visa on arrival access to 61 countries and territories, ranking the Cuban passport 69th in the world. Persons holding dual Spanish and Cuban citizenships are now allowed to travel freely, using their Spanish passport in lieu of a visa for countries normally requiring a visa for the Cuban passport. Moreover, ever since that date, the Cuban government extended the allowable time abroad from 11 to 24 months, allowing Cubans who return within the 24-month time frame to retain their status and benefits of "Cuban Resident of the Interior". Should the citizen remain out of Cuba for more that 24 months, then his status would change to "Cuban Resident of the Exterior" and he would lose his privileges within.
By this change, there is no longer such a thing as "illegal" or "unauthorized" travel, and therefore persons who leave Cuba via unconventional means (boats etc.) are no longer violating Cuban law, and therefore not subject to detention or imprisonment.246 Slushball
That is all about to change, Snowflake.

Um...
"USA National Security Advisor, John Bolton, hints for new restrictions to Cuba travel for American citizens."
"To Cuba."

I know what you're saying but I think we have a misunderstanding about terminology. When I say "illegals" I mean those people who sneak across the border and manage to disappear without getting caught. I am not talking about people who present themselves at the border checkpoints in the hopes of being allowed to stay, because they have done nothing illegal. If individuals, charities, institutions etc. want to help the second group I'm all for it.
I think that people who cross the border illegally will try their hardest to stay under the radar and would be less likely to ask for services that could expose their illegality.
And also with you.
