Yesterday Mexico's border was violently attacked by another Migrant Caravan group traveling to the U.S.


1 migrant was killed, 6 police were injured


The media has been under reporting this

This is what is coming here . They want to bully their way in here because they feel entitled to be here . This isn’t about asylum , if it was. Costa Rica and Panama are much closer

A sniveling little crybaby weasel without ethics and full of hypocrisy.

If you believe a fetus is a clump of cells if the mother kills it, but believe if a drunk driver kills it then it is a baby...

If you believe freedom of speech means you can say whatever you want as long as it doesn’t offend anybody, unless they are Republicans...

If you believe the answer to your problems is more government...

If you believe it is ok to take from one person who earned what they got and give it to another...

If you believe illegal aliens deserve to be in this country and we should support them...

Then you might be a liberal.

Defining something by regurgitating Facebook memes is not exactly addressing the question. What you are defining is a hate-filled narrative that falls in line with Rush Limbaugh's constant blathering.

You have simply invented a dictionary definition of something that fuels your own anger.

By your definition, anyone who is a Democrat ascribes to your definition. That's simply stupid and is a clear illustration of why there is not conversation. You've decided that for us.

I will simply say this. If anyone ever ran a national campaign for office based on the premise that all white men are potentially bad, because some white men are bad actors, shit would go ballistic. But the President once again has dipped into the well of fear and loathing in an attempt to gin up his base. And its working. I stand by my assessment if you make the excuse that Im not racist. But I like his policies so I will ignore his now outright racism, you are complicit in it.

i think that is nothing but propaganda . i have shown that democrats are even worse when it comes to racism but its ignored by the MSM . white supremacy isnt THE BASE of any party . its uniformed talking points

you see the mobs chasing people out of restaurants and bullying all by democrats . you have seen black lives matter violence and antifa violence . you have seen democrats smear innocent people for political game yet ignore their own

you have seen the riots and violent rhetoric from the left by the people i have listed above

no one calls the guy who shot up republicans at the softball game practice the sanders assassin, yet they are all over the maga bomber BS

crazies are crazies and that is how it should be covered but it isnt

obama's relationship with wright and farakhan are ignored and they are anti semites . add to it jackson and sharpton and yet their racism is ignored and covered up in the cause of ideology

now don lemon comes out with race based attacks and that is ignored as well

The neo-Nazi accused of killing 11 people at a Pittsburgh synagogue, Robert Bowers, hated President Donald Trump and thought he was a puppet in a Jewish conspiracy. Does that absolve Trump of responsibility for violence?

Islamabad, Pakistan (CNN)Pakistan's Supreme Court has acquitted a Christian woman who has been on death row for almost eight years on blasphemy charges.

Asia Bibi, a mother of five from Punjab province, was convicted of blasphemy in 2010 and sentenced to hang after she was accused of defiling the name of the Prophet Mohammed during an argument the year before with Muslim colleagues.

The workers had refused to drink from a bucket of water Asia Bibi had touched because she was not Muslim. At the time, Asia Bibi said the case was a matter of women who didn't like her "taking revenge."


She won her appeal against the conviction and subsequent death sentence on Wednesday.

Islamist movement Tehreek-e Labbaik (TLP) had previously vowed to take to the streets if Asia Bibi was released, and protests broke out in Islamabad and Lahore soon after the ruling was announced.

Within hours, the protests were large enough that government officials in the cities were urging people to stay inside and avoid adding to the chaos. Demonstrators blocked a motorway in Lahore and a road linking Islamabad and Rawalpindi has been closed off. Angry workers from the TLP have also staged sit-ins and chanted slogans against Pakistan officials and judges.

In response, police officials invoked Section 144 of the Criminal Procedure Code, which prevents the gathering of more than four people.

This is what asylum was created for, not for economic migration masquerading as political asylum.

What FB meme did I regurgitate exactly? There is no hate by me. I am just speaking the facts. And honestly, Rush usually says his stuff after me.

What definition did I invent?

Let’s converse over any topic you like.

Well this and this only ... everything on your list is a veritable Xerox of extreme right wing talking points. Seriously, not all of anybody believes all of that, even most of the time. You lumped it all together and claimed liberals all believe it all the time. Equating liberals with Democrats shows zero knowledge of the political process.
Democrats are members of a political party.
Liberals are just something you have in your mind. They are buzzing around there, and you can't call them what you want to call them because you'd be giving yourself away. There aren't enough liberals out there to carry on a decent conversation. Nobody cares about them except people who make these stupid lists.

You just make yourself look like a Facebook meme by copying that ridiculous "you might be a liberal...." bullshit. It is also worth noting that nobody who reads that shit even cares anymore because we all know where it came from.
Most of that baloney is about suburban soccer moms and their lawyers, most of whom are NOT liberals. It is just shit from hateful people.
Just ... try not to be like *those people* and actually ask somebody what they believe before you post this ignorant crap. It's called using your brain.

So feel free to carry on. I got no more interest in this.

Except the Democratic Party keeps drifting further and further left.

So you call me out but don’t want to discuss it? Maybe, you just don’t know anything.

Who is really spinning out of control. Your fearless leader just proclaimed today that if people on the border throw rocks at our troops they should treat it as if shot at with a rifle and respond.

Spoken like a true draft dodging coward willing to put that on someone else to keep his political power safe. And Im sorry, but if you have never been in a position to potentially take someones life, you dont get to be so flippant about it to gin up your base.

What is wrong with that? Rocks have killed many people through the ages. They are literally trying to invade this country.

Well I didn’t dodge anything and it is the right thing to do. Well, I have been in position to take somebody’s life, and when your life is threatened, it is kill or be killed. Why should our troops, or border patrol be put in harm’s way with handcuffs on? Do you actually believe he people throwing rocks are coming here to be good citizens?

I am all for making military service a requirement for POTUS.

I don't have anything? I just wrote 250 words on the topic. I don't care if the Democrats fall off the fuckin' planet. I was pointing out that running the memes list of "how you might be a liberal" doesn't make you educated. It means you can cut and paste.

I guess I should have clarified that. Donald Trump is a draft dodger willing to put other peoples lives and sanity on the line doing something he never would do himself. The military is beneath him and he has the air of someone who feels the military is for losers who didnt have enough going for them that it was their only choice.

first off trump was medically DQ'd 2nd obama did not serve one day in the military yet he sent soldiers to fight in a war . bill clinton was also a draft dodger as he ran off to england

the idea you somehow have to have been in the military to order people to fight is ridiculous as a president

if this was simply about asylum then why not go to costa rica which is way closer ? no its a masquerade

Whataboutism is apparently more a religion than christianity among Trump Supporters.

Obama was not drafted, Trump was, he dodged it. As some one who HAS been in a position to fire on an enemy, I find it sickening that Trump would try and push the narrative that people trying to make a better life for themselves are now the enemy in any context. I see people. the majority of which want to be where they can make the best possible for them and their children.

You and Trump see a Zombie horde bent on changing American "Culture".

1. I didnt vote for Clinton. So that dog dont hunt with me.
2. Obama wasnt drafted, and didnt go to a military college, then dodge.

3. I see people trying to make a better life for themselves in the majority of these migrants and refugees. YOu and Trump apparently see the walking dead Zombie Horde coming to eat your children and change American "Culture"

the point is if you are going to call it call it fair down the line . trump was DQ'd medically . dodging is running off to canada like sly stallone did

obama wasnt drafted because there was no draft

3rd making a better life isnt entering our country , armed demanding entry . that is invading

and again costa rica has a thriving economy and they can seek their fortunes there or by god make their country better

the american tax payers shells out billions of dollars to el salvador , hondurus , and guatemala in aid . and i dont see why caravans organized by left wingers from those countires have any damn right here in this country period

this caravan is responsible for one death , 6 injured in violence , along with 7 cases of child sex trafficking

what i see is clear , we are a sovereign country and we have immigration laws like any other country in the world which we have to respect . i see AMERICAN poor of all walks of life in need of assistance and our tax money should go to them first , then we can help the others

but it isnt about that , its about open borders for a liberal socialist agenda the american people have said they dont want

I think Trump is fucking up on this caravan migration. He should let them in, put them on buses and take them right to the first sanctuary city they come to and dump them off. If Californians feel so strongly about this issue to have their cities become sanctuaries, let them take care of them. Offer no federal assistance. Trust me, within 2 weeks these same liberals will be begging for a new way.
