    That's UnAmerican

    Wife and I woke up one morning to find an "undocumented" family living in our guest room. Called the cops, was told the mayor and council voted for our city to be "sanctuary" so the cops could do nothing. Asked the mayor he couldn't put them up, he lives in a gated community so that is not allowed. Beside I was being Un-American for not wanting them. Pretty soon their cousins moved into the living room, again I complained and was told that I was being Un-American. Wife and I came home to find more relatives, this time in my bedroom. Went to the camper, same there, the garage...ditto. Wife and I pitched our tent in the back yard. I also found out that I had to learn their language and customs so as not to be Un-American. On my flagpole was another flag, was told not to complain Un-American. 4th of July was changed to Cinco de Mayo. One morning walked out front of the house, looked across the street, up and down. Guess what I saw, all Un-American. What I posted is just a thought about being Un-American, this MY COUNTRY not the "undocumented migrants".

              Well, having something shoved up your keister does have something to do with a point.

              Perhaps you can explain why other countries can enforce their borders, but it's objectionable if we do it.

                  Evidently you are unfamiliar with the term allegory.

                    Our nation has a very serious problem with illegal aliens. The analogy does a workman like job of speaking to that issue. It appears you are not comfortable dealing with the matter. If you are not capable of discussing the matter, that is fine. But, beyond your not appreciating the analogy, your objection is without merit. Present your facts. Sincerely. bruce.

                      Absolutely not objectionable to seal that border Dan.... that is the point the point I've tried to make all along. ... Stopping an illegal entry is good ... deporting an illegal entry is good ....

                      .... but kicking back and waiting until someone has been here 20+ and grown a family before we find his prescence objectionable is just plain Un Christain and Un American in my eyes...

                      Kind of funny..... Obama ended the dry foot deal with the Cubans ..... not one person here said that was good... not one. Because a Democrat did that .. is that why?

                      And now trump wants to rescind eveything Obama has put out there... does that mean the Cuban dry foot thing too ?

                      does that mean that just because a Cuban makes land he's legal you're OK with that ?

                        Note that the people who say "we" should welcome undocumented immigrants don't welcome them into their houses.

                          married one ... what ya got to say now ?

                          and if I may point out the discussion isn't about welcoming people over the border.... its about recognising the fact that we never made a serious effort to get them out for 20+ years. Beleive it or not so far even Obama has deported more than Trump...

                            In '04 I put up a steel building; specified in my bid requests 'all persons on the jobsite must be able to prove legal work status'. Only got two of seven replies.

                              Big difference between marrying one-and going through the legal procedures-and allowing people to ignore and violate our laws.
