A significant percentage of amber alerts for missing children are now for children with hispanic names, many believed to be abducted by non-custodial parent.
And where they are from non-custodial parent may not have any meaning.

being hispanic.
not speaking english.
not having more than an elementary education.
along with likely needing government assistance every step of the way.

that would be hard for you to distinguish in America? Or is this just more disingenuous bullshite?


With the possible exception of speaking English, you're talking about a solid 50% of everything south of the Mason Dixon.

sure but i have not noticed an increase in my daily life (anecdotal, i know). cant find more recent numbers but looks like the illegal population has remained roughly the same from 2000 - 2021

It’s pretty rough man.

And I’m not a border hawk by any stretch.

I’m not for a locked border but what we are seeing is a national death sentence. Maybe already, but definitely if not stopped.

I’m all for anyone who wants to come here if they have a family member to sponsor them or an employer contracted to hire them.

But what we have right now, this free-for-all, is unprecedented and incredibly dangerous.

Meanwhile my brother-in-law was requested four years ago and probably doesn’t have a shot any time soon of getting here. A good kid with a good set of skills. If it weren’t so dangerous, I would sneak him over tomorrow.

the minor difference you seem to be overlooking is the fact that the segment of the population you are referring to aren’t illegal immigrants.

Someone else provides a source and you bitch and say that source doesn’t work for you because the video is too long. Why don’t I make a post saying the Armenian genocide at the hands of the Turks never happened and when someone says it did and posts a 2 hour video proving it did I’ll call bullshite since it’s too long for me to watch this afternoon.

I’ll keep it more civil




I’m correct.

Feel free to go research the topic yourself.

We're all descended from migrants, even the native Americans walked over here. No one originated from here. So, first world problems. A country the size of the U.S. having less than a half billion people is pretty impressive, actually.

Stop at any shipyard in Louisiana. Bring a translator with you.
