This is the most insane thing I've ever heard. Have you also seen people claiming this?

And they act like it's the world's right to come here as they please. It's insane.

Bc they are fricking stupid and have never read it for themselves. They listen to MSM and believe it to be fact. Sheep, I believe, is what they call people like that?

People are stupid. I think the majority of this country just learned what the electoral college was because they were forced to basically

Because they are retarded.

While I am serious, it is also a manifestation of the idea by liberals that borders are inherently racist, therefore they should not exist and we are all "citizens of the world."

Two basic Paradigms; Rights come from God and are Individual and relative affluence is based (ideally) on earned merit....or Rights come from the Global Community, and relative affluence is *equalized* by philosophical Elitist at the head of the World Community.

Individuals choose to embrace one or the other as a First Principle of their philosophical/moral Worldview. Those two are polar absolutes...with the Religious concept of 'Mercy' being the only form of reconciliation between those absolute opposites.

Wailing and gnashing of teeth on a grand scale, until that (Religious) reconciliation is recognized and adopted as the basis ("chief cornerstone") of World Governance. IMHO.

Progressives - America is an evil imperialistic warlord.

Next breath - America's law of the land should apply to everyone in the world when we want it to.

On here daily! I have also noticed we have a lot of NEW people here.


What did you expect from the people who think we should not have borders.


My generation told you along time ago. You didn't listen. But....that's history. Now you have alot of growing pains to go through.

Brush they don't even think the constitution applies to Americans. It's just the vehicle they're using right now to excuse their current childish outburst

Sounds like you are falsely framing the opposition.

Progressives are anti-Western.

Not only does our Constitution apply to everyone in the world, but Western nations "belong to everybody". Note that they are not pushing for massive Muslim immigration into Japan, for example.

The left likes to enforce our Constitution selectively in favor of people who aren't actually protected by it, meanwhile stripping it down to nothing via subjective interpretation, leaving the people to whom it DOES apply without the protection of the written rule of law.

This is a tactic that has been used by the totalitarian left for decades. It will not prevail. The revolution is on.

Edited to fix phone typing.
