The Problem with Immigration is NOT Immigrants!
The Problem Lies Within!
Politicians love to get votes by saying “build a wall” or other such buzz words. But most of them are doing nothing to secure anything and they don’t plan to. They are playing both ends against the middle and it’s working great. One side cries race while ignorant patriots talk about securing the border by using a 50 cal to shoot those who cross it. That’s not American, that’s Nazi!
Let’s be clear. The borders should NOT be wide open. But they should also be simple for the poorest producer to cross legally, without tens of thousands on extortion fees and years of red tape.
Why did the framers barley speak of immigration when America was founded? Because immigration was not the problem; it was the blessing. People came to work and be part of America and that worked well until politicians that WE elected started profiting by handing out freebies!
Did you know that even into mid mid 1900’s, immigration was a free process that took hours, not years? Start your history lesson with Ellis Island. It was not until later in the century that we start adding quotas, politics and manipulation to immigration. None of that had anything to do with American sovereignty or security.
There was less than one sentence in the US Constitution about immigration policy (Article 1:8). You might get the idea the framers never intended it to be a monster it has become. They did not, but that does not mean they ignored it. Instead the early debates were centered around what should be required to become a naturalized “citizen” once here. This was an effort to ensure that immigrants would take up the principles and tendencies of America and not wash our government in undue foreign influence. The concern was not immigrants come here to work and contribute to our.
Some see immigrants crossing our border and say we should start shooting them. What is wrong with this generation? Our framers didn’t even need a fence. Our guns were not meant for our neighbors coming to join us! Security had nothing to do with preventing families from coming to improve their lives. Immigration was simple because they did not allow a crooked abusive goverment and make it complex for their own gain.
SHAME on the patriot who excuses the failings of his own goverment by saying we should slaughter families because they violate a border boundary. Get your house in order and start standing for liberty.
Liberty is not something for one people. Liberty is based on the principle that ALL men are created EQUAL!
This hatred of our neighbors is an copout so that WE do not have to point the finger at ourselves! The worst of criminals are sitting in our houses of government America and we point the finger and penniless widows? Our problems begin in our own house. They begin when we are silent at the abuse our fellow man.
So yes make the border secure. By enforcing real law. By punishing those who actually abuse others. By welcoming the poor and the fatherless and the widow instead of extorting them. Start on the inside by ejecting corrupt politicians. Streamline immigration; because it worked fine for most of our history. Act like humans, not animals and be good neighbors using the balanced scales of justice.
Good immigration requires good goverment. It requires lawless welfare programs to be shut down. Good government requires a people who stand up to bad goverment, instead of dividing against the middle and pointing the finger at the weakest element. America has died. Not because of the border, but because the failure of Americans to stand with liberty, principle and God.
While we fight about flags; while we call sin righteous, tyranny freedom and kangaroo courts justice, America had died. Immigrants did not kill her. Americans let her die while they watched television and made sport. We sold our children’s birthright for gifts and we have to restore it.
Love your neighbor as yourself. That’s what liberty means and that’s how we make this a land of liberty once again.
