Democrats want the Caravan. They want "open borders". George Soros is paying illegals to join the caravan. They're getting ready to storm the border. MS 13 is going to kill your kids if Democrats win. Republicans give you jobs, Democrats give you mobs! Republicans want law and order, Democrats want chaos and lawlessness. We want a wall to stop drugs from flowing in, while Democrats want open borders. Body slamming a reporter is what makes him my guy!.
The caravan is made up of about 3000 women and kids looking for a safe place for themselves and their children. They are fleeing horrid conditions that threaten the very lives of their families. They see America as a light on the hill, offering safety and hope for a better future. The very reason our forefathers founded our country. They see America as a place of Hope, they can contribute too. Not the evil Trump portrays it as.
George Soros is wealthy. He is known to back Democrats and their views. But, realistically, if he paid out as much as Republicans have wrongly accused him of, he would have been broke generations ago. Rich people know you can't stay rich if you give all your money away. He doesn't "pay protesters" or "people to join a caravan", or "kids and women" to march on Washington. Those people do it because we have a First Amendment right that says we can because we are Americans. It's our right to protest. I write because of it's my legal right to do so. No one pays me a dime to do this. I feel it is my right to speak out against the injustices that are happening now, almost every day.
MS13 is a "pimple gang" Are they bad? Yes. Do they do horrible acts against people in their community? Yes. Are they "spreading out across the Country and violence increasing dramatically? NO. Like a pimple, you scratch it, you irritate it, it gets sore. It gets inflamed. But it doesn't grow or spread or become cancerous. It just hurts a little more. You make it more visible. But a pimple is just that, a pimple. Making it sound worse, doesn't mean it is. Bloods, Crypts, the Mexican Mafia are all bigger and worse, with far more blood on their hands. We don't mention them because they are "American gangs" born and bred in American cities and poverty. They are cancer that we ignore to talk about pimples grown outside our country. Small irritated pimples, given power by a President who needs the fear of "them" to win elections. North Dakota, Missouri, Nevada, and Arizona will never Know a single MS13 member as they predominantly reside in Long Island New York. He knows it. And then only in a certain area of that city.
Mob. According to Websters, it is 1.a large crowd of people, especially one that is disorderly and intent on causing trouble or violence. (noun)
verb 1. crowd around (someone) in an unruly and excitable way in order to admire or attack them.
So "technically" A Trump "rally" is a "MOB". He advocates for violence against the press, Democrats, people that disagree with him, women he dislikes and people or Countries he personally dislikes. Rather than call them rallies, he would be more accurate calling them a Trump Mob.
Webster defines a Protest as 1. a statement or action expressing disapproval of or objection to something. "The sit-in was a protest against Kavanaugh's nomination"
Verb: 1. express an objection to what someone has said or done.
2. declare (something) firmly and emphatically in the face of stated or implied doubt or in response to an accusation.
As you can see, there is a difference between a "protest" "protester" and a "mob". Someone should tell President Trump. By conflating the two, he basically implies anyone who disagrees with him or his policies and actions verbally, in writing or on TV is considered "a violent paid player" "working" for the other side. "THEM". But people who support HIM are "protesters" who have a "right" to do so.
By him advocating Violence; bodyslamming reporters. beating up people who disagree with him at his "rallies", and making fun of sexual assault victims, he advocates for "mob mentality" not peaceful "protest". He irritates the pimple. Scratching and picking at it and then accuse the other side of irritating it, causing it to come to a head.
What are "open borders"? That is something we in the states take for granted. You can go to any other "state" in our "Union" without papers, or passports or even a reason being given. States have open borders. We have "laws" that prohibit transporting certain things from one state to another; like stolen vehicles, drugs, female for the use as sexual surrogates. Open borders have laws that are enforced. There are still rules that have to be obeyed. So, we can have open borders and laws that restrict certain things at the same time. We need open borders for commerce, the free flow of information and cooperation. For freedom to be real. But we also need laws to ensure they are not broken or abused. Guns are bought in Indiana at gun shows with little ID required, then resold in Illinois on the streets of Chicago. Illinois didn't "build a wall to keep "guns off the streets in Illinois" from coming from Indiana. Why? Because a wall wouldn't stop or even slow it down. People and crime are "Biologic" in their development. If you stop things from evolving one way, they just develop a whole other way to accomplish the same task and it is often harder to catch or stop. The Great Wall of China is a perfect example. For centuries it worked, but now foreigners just fly in or sail around, or even just cross the mountains. It failed to keep people out. Now it is just a tourist attraction. Effective 200 years ago, but completely ineffective now. Mayans and Incans and Aztecs built great cities surrounded by huge walls. Some of the biggest of there time. Yet all their civilizations fell in collapse. Walls don't work very long for anything. They also "trap" people inside them from going out. They hide "us" from "them". and close us off to the world. Reagan knew this when he said " Mr. Gorbechev, "tear down this wall" and he did. Russia came into the twentieth century too. It opened the world to them and for them. The good and the bad.
Now Trump and the Republicans want to "build a wall" for fear of "what might happen", Not what "will happen". Fear of the future doesn't stop it from happening. If it did we would be singing "God save the Queen" instead of "God Bless America".
More security and better laws, with an open border, can work. Not blocking it off from our "vision". Because we "can't see it" doesn't mean it stops. It just means it is now "hidden" from our view. Light bulbs don't stop darkness, they highlight it. We can have secure borders without locking us in and trying to keep everyone else out. One way you can see who is coming in, the other way it happens, but now you're in the dark about it.
This week, The Saudis finally admitted, sort of, that they killed a Washington Post reporter inside their embassy in Turkey. They claimed it was an unfortunate accident as a result of a fist fight that went wrong. What they haven't explained is why they sent 14 highly specialized individuals including a pathologist who specialized in a 7-minute dissection of human bodies and who brought bone saws and body bags with them. Why they were all part of MBS's personal guard. Why they flew in and out in a 24 hr period. Why a cleaning crew with acid wash cleaned BEFORE a forensic investigation was allowed. Why his body has not been released. Why MBS is heading up the supposed investigation of himself. Why certain peop[le are missing or dead who took part in it. Why it took two weeks to admit he died inside the embassy. Why so many stories were floated before they finally admitted it.
Why Trump endorses violence against reporters in his own country during his Mob Rallies.
Other question we should ask. Why are all his Mob rallies held in predominately white areas of the states he goes to? Why does he continually attack any media that still shows any part of his so-called rallies? Why is there not more diversity in his crowds? A few token blacks and an occasional Mexican American don't show diversity. They don't show support of those communities. Kanye West is a perfect example. Unmedicated and psychotic, he is very ill fitted to "represent" a certain portion of the black community. Yet Trump held him out, like the black gentleman on the tarmac at one of his rallies. Yep "there is my black guy." seemed to be his only point that day in the White House.
He acts more like an owner than an equal. To date Trump has never apologized to the Central Park five, whom he took out full-page ads, calling for the death penalty. When DNA and a confession finally exonerated them, he got angry. He said they "had to be up to no good" being in the park that day. That they "were still guilty of something". That they should never receive a penny for being falsely incarcerated for years for something they never did, to begin with.
Why does he still insist Peurto Rico was "a complete success"? 2000+ dead and people still feeling the pain over a year later seems to be far "from a success" at least to me. Flint Michigan still has poisonous water 2 years out. Why aren't they a priority?
Why are we still imprisoning kids at the border and still screwing their guardians out of legal custody? Chris Cuomo did a report on a little 5yr old sent back to a central American Country, though her mother is a legal resident in the US. The court "gave custody to someone other than her mother and then HE signed off to "send her back" as her legal guardian. The mother was never even given the opportunity to even try and get custody of he blood daughter. Why?
Why is he now talking about reopening a family separation policy again when the first failed so miserably? Illegal immigration went up 80% after he installed his first one, not down as he thought it would.
November 6th is a chance to tell Trump and his "old white posse" Republicans we Want a change. We NEED A Change! That we want ALL Americans counted, not just the "rich, white ones" that are his base. That we need the rich to pay their "fair share" and tax breaks need to help all of us, not just his family and friends. That we believe in the dream that once was America, not the vision of white America they push. That the law should and must represent fairness for all of us, not just White, Evangelical Republicans. That women count for more than just "Sex" and "house cleaners". That college shouldn't be for just those who "can afford it" but rather for all who desire it. That healthcare is a right for all, not just some who have more money. That all votes should count, not just the one that supports Trump.
Check your registrations. They are finding ways to suppress them. Remember to vote. Don't be discouraged. Don't be Frightened. Don't be intimidated. Vote like our future counts on it; because it does. Be seen. Be heard. Be Counted.
That's my rant for today. Let er rip! Have a great Sunday.
