A mentally disturbed moron looks at those pictures and says flat.

How would I even begin to censor you?
I did not say you were trying to censoring me because only an idiot would think you could do that to me.  I TYPED you WANTED to censor me.  I know reading comprehension is difficult, but words actually matter...

https://www.law.cornell.edu/cfr/text/8/208.15

Happy now cupcake? Or do you plan on continuing this fit?

That law has nothing to do with walking into another country before seeking asylum

BTW none of these people have legal claim to asylum here... that only applies to the nation you first step foot in after leaving your own. IE none of them are here to enter legally.
 

Where is the law backing up this exact fucking claim, not some general law that could be used for any reason.

Will I continue to post here and call out your lies when I read them, yes.  Thanks for reading!

YAWN. Rather than actually look into it you default with the insults and the predictable childishness.
https://www.nytimes.com/2018/05/17/world/americas/mexico-migrants-caravan-asylum.html

I asked for you to cite the law you claimed was being broken and you have yet to do that...  I am sorry your precious feelings are hurt but I like to call stupid people stupid, not enough of that going around these days!!!!!!!!!!!!  Don't mind me I'm not a politically correct liberal...

Another article but I don't see the law you claim they're breaking, did the agreement get signed??

Tell me again, what gives you the right as a Canadian to tell people in the US how to live?

Nothing gives me the right and I have never once said I have any right to tell you how to live.......

theymos however gives me the opportunity to discuss whatever fucking topic I motherfucking feel like regardless of what fucking country I fucking live in...

What gives you the right to question my ability to express my opinion here sounds like you want to censor me....

Oh I SEEE, it becomes more nuanced when it is your nation. I get it.

It's not more nuanced if I was American I would say the exact same thing.  Process them by the laws currently on the books.


BTW none of these people have legal claim to asylum here... that only applies to the nation you first step foot in after leaving your own. IE none of them are here to enter legally.

I would be interested in reading the source information for this claim.  

The first country you step into after leaving your country is irrelevant to seeking asylum in Canada.

This isn't Canada.



From a pro asylum site: https://www.asylumist.com/2011/02/02/new-asylum-law-in-mexico-could-reduce-the-flow-of-refugees-to-the-u-s/

"As I’ve discussed in this blog previously, African, Chinese, and other asylum seekers enter the United States at the Mexican border and then file for asylum in the U.S.  If these people pass through Mexico without requesting asylum, it could negatively impact their chances for success in the United States (for example, they might be deemed less credible).  If they request asylum in Mexico, and their request is granted, they would be ineligible for asylum in the U.S., as they would be “firmly resettled” in Mexico for purposes of the immigration law."

You quote some weird site referencing a Mexican law LOL good one bro!!  I hope you're not a lawyer IRL!!!  And the site doesn't even say its illegal to seek asylum after entering Mexico it just says "it could negatively impact their chances for success in the United States" in what type of a pea brain is that the same as "none of these people have legal claim to asylum here"

BTW none of these people have legal claim to asylum here... that only applies to the nation you first step foot in after leaving your own

It might help your case if you could cite some actual AMERICAN laws to back up a claim that seeking asylum is illegal unless you go from your own country directly to the US.

Maybe we should send them on through to Canada? What do you guys think?

I would be in favour of them entering Canada by any legal means possible.  If they show up on our border seeking asylum I would expect our government to follow Canadian laws and process them as compassionately as possible according to the fucking laws we have on the books.

I assume if they made it here they would be vetted and some would be allowed to come here for a chance at a better life and pay taxes and contribute to our society.  Any person that can walk with their kids for thousands of miles is someone I would personally consider hiring based on their sheer determination & tenacity.

I also think the Canadian PM would be smart enough to ask the humanitarian organizations to assist in helping assimilate or maybe find other countries that need immigrants.

Everything is a fucking problem for you guys and an attack holy shit its a few thousand civilians with children, I guess you're nation is so fragile it feels under invasion by a few thousand scared 3rd world civilians, wow you guys are tough AND cool!

I would be ashamed to be Canadian if we unilaterally said FUCK off losers, to any group of people...

Exclusive: Trump plans to sign an executive order terminating birthright citizenship, he said yesterday in an exclusive interview for "Axios on HBO."

Obviously lying is involved ("We’re the only country in the world...") but also there is that pesky 14th amendment:

Quote
All persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the State wherein they reside.

Which Trump thinks he can overturn with an executive order. Good thing he has that beer fan dude on the SCOTUS now.

FHF, you gotta make room in your basement for me when I get deported LOL.

Just wow!

You know we got lots of room for you up here in the great white north, the basement is not the place for an honoured guest, you're welcome to my ice fishing hut for as long as you like!  Can you handle UHC, kids not being massacred at school, the elderly not being slaughtered at church, a non racist leader, Maple syrup, weed, real beer and people that aren't terrified of make believe bogey men?  If you can handle the harsh brand of communism here I say come on by and we'll have a smoke/drink and a chat and get you all set up!

We do ask politely that you leave the military hardware at the door before coming in please and thank you!

War hasn't been declared, but an uninvited horde of thousands intent on abusing our system, or otherwise ignoring our borders, is an invasion.   You can paint it any way you like if you prefer alternate semantics.  You are also welcome to ignore the cost to, and effect on our society, the strain it puts on the middle class.  You can minimize the difficulty in vetting the horde for criminals and insane, and possibly terrorists.

I hope you guys have enough bullets, I hear babies are harder to hit!  Maybe you guys could ask the Saudi's for some advice on how to use your missiles to bomb civilians!

Seriously you need to send thousands of military personal to stop a horde of a few thousand unarmed, walking civilians.  Cool!

1. Muslim man kills = He's terrorist

3. White man Kills= Oh he's just a mentally disturbed

There are a lot of people willing to call this guy a white supremacist, criminal terrorist (me for one!) or as Republicans call him a moderate!!

I am happy to call all religious zealots and fundamentals mentally disturbed.  I am also happy to call anyone a criminal if they are one!

I'm not sure what the troops are supposed to do as by law they can not engage in domestic policing, including arresting people crossing the border illegally... 

I mean unless they revoke habeas corpus.!.!.

We are being invaded.

Fox has a right leaning shift.
CNN is left leaning.
Breitbart is VERY FAR RIGHT LEANING.
Occupy Democrats is VERY FAR LEFT LEANING.

Link to actual paper: https://sci-hub.tw/10.1016/j.jarmac.2018.09.005

Abstract:

Quote
Delusion-prone individuals may be more likely to accept even delusion-irrelevant implausible ideas because of their tendency to engage in less analytic and less actively open-minded thinking. Consistent with this suggestion, two online studies with over 900 participants demonstrated that although delusion-prone individuals were no more likely to believe true news headlines, they displayed an increased belief in “fake news” headlines, which often feature implausible content. Mediation analyses suggest that analytic cognitive style may partially explain these individuals’ increased willingness to believe fake news. Exploratory analyses showed that dogmatic individuals and religious fundamentalists were also more likely to believe false (but not true) news, and that these relationships may be fully explained by analytic cognitive style. Our findings suggest that existing interventions that increase analytic and actively open-minded thinking might be leveraged to help reduce belief in fake news.

Crazy to see, after being at the helm for about 16 years Angela Merkel is going to be stepping down from her position in her own party and then will not be seeking the role of chancellor in the next election.

Not surprising to say the least, after the recent election her coalition government is most likely going to dissolve as the other side has hinted they're going to do. Right (or even far right) leaning parites have seen massive gains as the open borders movement from Angela Merkel is being frowned upon by her voters.

Check out the article here - https://www.bbc.com/news/world-europe-46020745 - This is going to be a fun chat.

Oh my, angry German far right nationalist, that has always been a good thing for the rest of the world!...  Roll Eyes

Again, you would be surprised what a few motivated people with the right hardware can do. Also, it is important to note that the military is rarely if ever deployed against citizens in the US. It would be an escalation of local law enforcement agencies, with local police responding initially.

The military is never deployed because it's never been needed...  You're kind of proving my point hehe, thanks!  But in the hypothetical you need to arm yourselves because a tyrannical government needs to be overthrown (that's a main reason why you guys all need guns according to you).  Why wouldn't that corrupt tyrannical government deploy the military to beat its enemy?


Okie. Heroin was designed as a painkiller. But it's currently ravaging our low income areas with lethal effect. And the laws and regulations around this substance reflect that potential lethality. Like cars. And fireworks. Intended purpose does not always define use. So regulation and legislation fills that vacuum.

So regulating a drug that can only hurt the person taking it is fine because it's lethal but military assault weapons and hand guns that hurt other people (because of mentally unstable people not responsible gun owners) don't you dare take those away from me.  You might be surprised to find that I completely agree with you that lethal things should be regulated, I just include assault rifles and hand guns as being far more lethal than heroin, especially for people who chose to not use heroin!

And a fun fact: there are at best like 6 million law enforcement officers and military peeps nationwide. Compared to 100 million registered gun owners.

Your new dictator has a few hundred drones and the air force and marines and all the military to use against your 100 million citizens.  As a bystander I would put my money on the military.

@Hellfish I went back and merged those two back to back posts into one big ass post, and deleted the second one. Again my bad Wink

Thanks for being reasonable, not everyone here can say the same thing unfortunately!

It is complicated, therefore, who accuses the Trump of fascism, condemns fascism as something opposed to socialism, and how people who had this thought, were majority, yes, many people think and judge in this way, which even in fact cant* be called fascism.

Sober people here, associate much more, socialism with fascism, than any opposite accusation. But the Socialists were mostly, so anything that opposes them, becomes a fascist, you know? Bolsonaro does not have a clear policy on gays, and has in fact already demonstrated in some cases to be prejudiced and ignorant at some points. Just because I'm ignorant about gays, and having an opposite opinion, they accuse him of being a fascist, so I don't take it seriously, who doesn't know what fascism is, calling someone a fascist.

But answering his question, when Trump was elected, yes, he was called a fascist by many socialists who made resistance < useless > around here. (In the same way that they compare Bolsonaro to Hitler, believe me, it is this level of despair of the Socialists, and that did not prevent the same of being elected. That's why it's complicated.

Serious question, do people in Brazil think Trump is Facist?  Is it a small number of people that think this or is it a wide spread belief/assumption?


Sounds like the politics are rooted deeply in partisan motives than anything else.  This is ironically interesting based on all the talk of partisan tribalism being at the forefront in America.  One might be able to reasonably argue the extreme partisan politics helps corruption flourish (operation Carwash?).
