The Modern Day Trojan Horse – Illegals Coming into the Country by the Millions are Military Age Men

Are we seeing a trojan horse cross into our country along the Southern border. Do Americans really want this many individuals coming into the country illegally? We have no idea who they are or where they come from. We don’t know if they are ISIS or members of drug cartels. We have no idea if they are sick with pandemic-like diseases? We know nothing about these people. This policy of allowing this to happen is insane!

Shouldn't these people be vetted before we let them in?

[Thomas]

Most hard working men are military age. Do you want a 10 or 80 year old doing a roof job for you? Check their tats to self vet.

[invalid unparseable]

Yes, a lot are good hard working people but shouldn't we have control of our borders?

[Ed Pawlowski]

Yes we should. We lost control many years ago. Biden is part of the problem but so are the last few presidents. Bush, Obama, Trump all has problems too.

[invalid unparseable]

But, Trump was working hard on it and doing a good job to be reversed by Biden.

While Trump did have entry way down, I would not say that it was a really good job and any thinking person knew what he did could just as easily be reversed by the next president. He had his insane focus on that wall that he promised Mexico was going to pay for, but then he was trying to divert money from every budget item he could to try to fund it instead. In reality, very little was built. But worse, he never put forth a proposal for comprehensive immigration reform, a plan that could be passed by Congress and put into law so that it was durable. Despite all the swagger and BS, Trump was a coward, unwilling to put forth a plan and do his job, sell it to his base and America. He didn't care, as long as his base was amused and happy. And then he created more BS and divisiveness, squandered any hope of a solution, by starting in with his attacks on relatives of immigrants being given a better chance of LEGAL immigration. An incredibly stupid move, when the 99% problem, the real problem, is illegal immigration. So then he got attacked for being anti-immigration period.

[Thomas]

Sure. But we don't. The question was about are you safe with what is already here.

[zaq]

There is no such animal.

[Cindy Hamilton]

Me, too. Sure, there's some crime around and about, but the majority of it is between people who know each other. Or cars getting boosted when their owners park them on the street (because their garage is full of junk or they own more than two cars) and leave them unlocked.

The last two sets of roofers I hired were the usual combination of Michigan hillbillies leavened with one kid who was heading off to the services in a few weeks and some black guys. Nary a Latino to be seen.
