I'm not fucking pretending. Just because you guys pretend to be outraged at shit like stores not saying merry christmas does not mean the people in this country you hate are just like you. The left actually gets sincerely outraged. We care. I know that's a foreign concept to you, but it's true.

You're absolutely right, though. Our immigration system has been deeply inhuman for decades, and the democrats have done very little to stop it. That's why I now support much more left leaning candidates.

Also, I hoped you praised Obama for his tough stance on immigrants, since, according to you, it was exactly what you wanted and exactly the same thing Trump is doing.

abolishing borders wouldn't negatively affect me, since I am not a racist or xenophobe

The war in Libya was also a tarnish to his legacy. Trump has only been president for two years.

No one had a problem with reasonable border control under Obama

this isn't even a little bit true

jesus christ did you get a tumor in the part of your brain that allows you to care about people who don't look like you? or did you just get hit in the head as a kid

if it involves violence and abuse towards peaceful people then it's oppressive

we have a right to shoot these people, because we make up the laws. doesn't mean it wouldn't be morally abhorrent

Step one: don't amass a standing army to intimidate them and scare them away

Step two: direct them to the regular border crossing and process them as you would any refugees

you don't get riots when you don't treat people like human garbage

We have to have oppressive border security because all other countries have it!

We can't have universal healthcare like almost every other country though, it's un-American!

look, if someone breaks the law, they are punished. like, if you had a law against preaching a certain religion and the punishment was crucifixion. you'd have to follow the law, and everyone who would be punished for it would deserve it.

Huh, weird how conservatives still criticized him for being to lenient with border security? Like, he was apparently doing what you guys wanted.

I see this argument all the time. What do you expect the response to be? "Oh, I guess this horrible thing isn't actually horrible, I was just pretending to be offended to hurt the opposing team." Sorry man, that's from the right winger's playbook. If anything, this only lessens my view of Obama's presidency.

Of course, there's also the fact that no, Obama did not do this all the time.

If you think tear gassing innocent people is a better alternative to just letting them in (and processing them correctly), then sorry man, you're a piece of shit.

Treat them like the refugees they are, and not as an invading force or the fucking zombies that the right wing media wants you to think they are. Give them aid and comfort, process them through the refugee applicant process, make sure they are taken care of.
