A friend of mine who is a political activist said something interesting the other day, and that was for most people on the left political violence is a knob, and they can turn the heat up and down, with things like protests, and riots, all the way up to destruction of property, and sometimes murder… But for the vast majority of folks on the right, it’s an off and on switch. And the settings are Vote or Shoot Fucking Everybody.
All congress critters and senators should be ordered to the border and stand in front of the border patrol, get out front and dodge a few rocks, see for themselves what a lovely group of asylum seekers really look like. Make them stay in border town hotels, eat at local establishments where english is the second language, do laundry at the local laundromat, go for a morning stroll through a homeless camp, and make them stay onsite until the “caravan” is under control.
Make them spend time talking to the border patrol, ICE, then make them visit a few jails and prisons in cities adjacent to the borders and talk to guards and wardens. Listen to their experiences with illegals, talk to American families who have lost a loved one to an illegals actions, or a father whose daughter has been raped, or a mother whose son was killed by an illegal alien drunk driver. Make it mandatory!
Until then I don’t want to hear another word out of any of them relating to the crisis on the border, they are not there, they have no idea. You can’t tell a child handler from a child trafficking ring from an actual mother with her kids from the window of your office. And you can’t tell from pictures either, it’s impossible.
