Joe Legal and Joe illegal both benefit from the same police and fire services, but Joe Legal paid for them and Joe illegal did not.I've made this same argument for years. I got to watch it live and in person for years here in S Texas. It's a way of life :rolleyes:

There's nobody to convince, Jimbob. Those of us at ground zero need no convincing while those not affected by it at all have some idealistic (und unrealistic) crap stuck in their heads, or they are the ones making money from it, know it, and love the latter group for not allowing the law to interfere in their illegal businesses.

I just have to LOL @ people like this who don't think the GOP is just as guilty as the DNC in this crap.

Which party was in total control for two years and did NOTHING to build a wall or otherwise add enforcement teeth? Oh that's right.

Equality of guilt (?)-- my, my what a weak excuse to try to cover for liberal democrats and your own hidden simpleton ways..
Such lack of depth, knowledge and wisdom does not surprise me at all, given your history of ignorance, low morals, pitifully inept arrogance
and utterly massive infantile stupidity.

Better to be silent and thought to be a fool, than to speak and thus remove all doubt.
Advice you obviously never ever heard or else rejected because of your own highly aggrandized and self-loving ego...

Now that a moron like you made the first unprovoked stab, do tell of your brilliance , wealth , glory et all- you know your usual lies..
Not that such is interesting but in sad way it is somewhat entertaining to see such a fool you, bray like a total jackass.. -Tyr

ATTENTION ALL ADMINS AND MODS PLEASE TAKE NOTE OF WHO GOT PERSONAL WITH WHOM FIRST IN THIS THREAD, I DON'T WANT TO HEAR A FUCKING WORD ABOUT IT. I made a substantive on point post and this moron attacked because he's a moron possibly of inbred beginnings.

Listen here Tyr, saying the GOP Is just as guilty (because they are) doesn't mean the DNC is not guilty and your idiotic attempts to label me as a liberal because you disagree with facts is just dumb.

You should stick to poetry and leave the thinking to people who can you know think.
