What are you talking about? What personal responsibility did I escape?

Why can’t you post about the topic of the thread instead of trying to make the thread about me?

Your thread count was low until Landry took office, then you revived and started posting. It has been noticed.

Like so many liberals, you refuse to accept the consequences of your actions.

1) Liberal supports open borders
2) Liberal condmens anyone that wants to do anything to stop the flow of illegal migrants.
3) Same genius liberal does nothing personally to help illegal migrants.
4) Same liberal doesn't see the link between their line of thought, and not applying that same thought to actions.

This isn't a hard concept to understand.

So you are a hypocrite then. You condemn anyone dare address a major problem that affects our state, but you don't personally want to do anything about it.


I’m condemning one person. The governor of Louisiana. And you’re correct, I don’t plan on standing guard at the border. When is your shift?

quote:

You are bitching about Landry doing something about the border.

I’m pointing out that he’s been governor for a month and is already traveling to other states to offer them our limited resources while he has done nothing to directly help the people who elected him.

You can call that bitching if it makes you feel good about yourself.

quote:

You are in a thread about the border.



Did you not read the first two words of the thread title?

quote:

YOu are bitching that Landry wants to stop the flow of illegal immigrants


Again, I’m pointing out that he’s been governor for a month and is already traveling to other states to offer them our limited resources while he has done nothing to directly help the people who elected him.

Every mistake. Every mistake you made, i am willing to bet, with 100% accuracy, you put the blame on someone else.


What does this have to do with Jeff Landry?

I’m totally ok with you thinking whatever you want about me. You have my blessing.

I voted for the guy that is making it happen. I support the actions. National guard is a voluntary enrollment and i'm not sure if they want early to mid 40 year olds enlisting.

and how often did you start threads bitching about JBE's budgets?

How many threads did you start bitching about JBE's covid shutdown order?

You don't think shutting down illegal immigration will help our state? Again, drugs, crime, unemployment, healthcare, tax spending, insurance rates, overdoses, human trafficking, national security threats, all byproducts of the border. All require significant tax dollars to mitigate. But sending the guard there to help shut down this invasion is worse? Explain your logic, in detail. How does sending in the guard outweigh spending to combat all of the crimes the southern border invasion brings to this state. Or are you one of these people that think only border states have to deal with the problems of an open border?

quote:

What does this have to do with Jeff Landry?



The fact that you can't see it, is astounding. You advocate for the problem (illegal immigration/open borders). Yet you do nothing to bring the problem into your life to deal with yourself (help the illegals you tacitly accept in this country). You are ok with open borders as long as you, personally, don't have to deal with it.

You’re just making things up that are so easy to prove are completely false.

I’ve started 4 threads about Landry in my 16 year tenure of posting here.

Four threads in 16 years.

I started 10 threads in Jan and 9 in December. Of those 19 threads, 4 were about the governor of the state in which I live.

Your would rather discuss me than Landry. I don’t get it.

I asked if men are considered insane for posting here or if only women are. But sure, you can call him sexist.

You’re making stuff up again. You don’t know me, buddy. When I ask you which consequences I’m not taking responsibility for, you just say that you’re certain I’m not taking responsibility for my mistakes.

My refusal or acceptance of consequences has no bearing on this thread anyway. You want to discuss me instead of Jeff Landry in a thread about Jeff Landry.

You do realize that states often send their national guard to help other states, right? This isn’t some new concept

Apparently, spending tax dollars to protect our borders is of the utmost concern for the fiscal hawk, 4cubbies. You mention cutting redundant food stamp programs, or banning tax dollars to fund abortions, and she forgets what she was arguing for/against.

Oh, and if you criticize her less than smart and illogical posts it's because she's a woman.

I'd rather LANG troops go to the southern border, versus being sent to the sandbox like they have been in the past.

Translation: he's not doing the things you want in the way you want him to, therefore what he's doing is bad.

In that same vein, you have yet to say what things you think he should be focused on and/or what other things you think he should be doing to address the flood of illegals, sex trafficking and drugs which are coming into Louisiana after crossing the border from Mexico into Texas.

If every state would do this, it would make the Joe Biden administration look very small in comparison. A big message could be sent. You just need many state leaders playing together in the sandbox.

Why is it preferable for him to show public support to other states by traveling to them and and filming videos but privately address matters that his constituents elected him to address?


Even if we want to admit it or not, the border is a war of public opinion as much as it is of policy. You have to pick and choose which topic best to make a public showing of and which not to. You don't have time to make them all a public showing, that's just reality. Most hate that fact, but that's reality.

A majority of his "constituent" as you call them, are in support of their new governor publicly supporting the fight against the Bidenvasion that's now happening.

It's the minority group of individuals like yourself that don't like it but will have to "suffer" through it.

This is a political stunt that serves only to get Landry’s name in the papers while harming Louisianans.

2 big drawbacks for the guardsmen who will bear the brunt of this decision:

1. Because this is state activation, salaries are much lower (not to mention it comes directly from the LA State budget).

2. Because guardsmen are being activated by the Governor and not the POTUS in response to a federally-declared emergency, the Servicemembers Civil Relief Act (SCRA) doesn’t apply.

This means these men and women will be deployed for potentially months to another state with less pay and no benefits to assist them with their lease, car notes, rent, medics bills, employer issues, etc.

Very selfish move by Landry.

Sure. But I’m surprised people think it’s positive for a very newly installed governor to travel to a circus to literally shoot videos for social media.

Do you have concrete numbers on the amount of those things happening here in Louisiana? Those issues aren’t my priority, but I’m not a lackey for wealthy politicians who don’t know or care that I exist, and I don’t live on Twitter and TikTok.

It is being used to further divide the population. Everyone is being manipulated by the wealthy elite who make our rules. But, for some reason, we keep electing them.

That’s good to know. Can you share the poll or survey that indicates Louisiana citizens want their governor to focus on the Texas/Mexico border?
