It is patently unamerican to not care about your neighbor.

You seem to have no respect for the folks that provide for your safety and security to allow you to enjoy your little corner of the world with your well protected by others family.

And you don't know me or why I post here nor what I do personally to support the views I espouse on here. Frankly, since you only care about your little corner then it doesn't surprise me that you have such poor takes on things.

But let me help you with hypocrisy. You are bloviating on about how everyone here has it wrong and that you only care about yourself. If that was true, why post here or on this thread repeatedly?

Maybe actually BE introspective instead of just telling everyone you only care about yourself and the rest of us are just sheep hunting for blue stars.

My leftist ideas? You think anyone who doesn't believe what you believe is an extremist? Thankfully I was wise enough to live in an area where a practical middle of the road approach is the norm. What is happening in LA will not have any impact on my day to day life. I live in a world where I don't feel a need to manufacture drama that will not ever affect me. Are you doing anything other than posting on TexAgs to make a difference anywhere these protests are happening. Saw another post on here saying the capitol in Texas is being shut down due to protest threats. Are you and the family headed to Austin to make a stand?? Or are you sitting at home on the computer being complicit and allowing this to happen in your great state????

I care a lot about my neighbors and my community and none of that is in California. It's in Archer County lol. Apparently a lot of the folks in California care about their neighbors and community and are willing to fight to keep them from being deported. The people that live there are doing what they think is right for their community and I continue to be involved in mine. If everyone took a little more time to be involved with their neighbors and their community and didn't try to interject themselves in situation all over the world maybe everything would be a little better off. You are taking your opinion on a situation happening 1000's of miles away from you and trying to tell those folks how to live their lives. You know nothing of their community or day to day workings but you want to tell them what is best and their lawmakers how to run their state. Maybe they don't think like you think or live like you live so why should they acquiesce to your ways? I'm not saying my way is better or more right than anyone's I'm just saying the people in my community get along just fine and I don't have any business telling folks in LA what they should stand for or how they should live. That is for them to decide!

If everyone worked hard and actually paid their fair share in income tax the place would be much better. Instead we Jace millions of moochers who believe they are compassionate by spending others money.


And immigration is a federal issue. Feds are doing their job. If the left doesn't like it change the law.

Looks like maybe you guys have some work to do in the wholesome little corner of Texas that has no relations or interactions. With the rest of the state, country, world.

Enjoy your safety there and cheer on riots by illegals and bad actors just trying to get a free house, free food and free healthcare as they shirk our laws and norms.

I agree. You can never trust organized religion. More "christian" predators than homosexual predators in the world. Finally found something we can agree on here!!! I have a feeling this man will certainly get the punishment he deserves here.

Doubt it. You position appears to be if it ain't your kid it ain't your problem.

No need to go back and forth. You've made your position known. Not your immediate family, not your problem. I get it, just don't agree with it.

I agree with all that. The biggest problem with all social programs is that the intentions are great but people are generally ****ty. There are always those finding a way to manipulate the system and find loopholes and take advantage of people. If you think only leftist are people that abuse that system I can tell you with first hand knowledge you are incorrect. But because people are going to abuse the system should we just give up on the principles of doing right? I think there needs to be change on a lot of legislation to clean things up and get rid of the grifting I just don't think any side federally is going to work together to make change and it's unfortunate for everyone. I try and do use more on what is going on in my local area were change can be made and people generally get along regardless of what side of center you are.

They say it all the time...

To have a labor force thay can be exploited.


What they don't say all the time

1. As revealed during the last census, and the court battles as to whether illegals should be counted, they want more illegals so they can get more seats

2. Its part of the neo Marxist agenda. World with but borders, white people bad, etc etc

Doing right with other peoples money isn't compassion. Also I never said that it was only the left. Anyone not paying their fair share needs to shut up and say thank you. Same with anyone on government programs.

No you don't. You said we should do what's right. Taking from producers with threat of force to give to poor isn't "right". It's not even compassionate.

Well, there is some thought that in olden times the monasteries where a convenient place for Catholics to stash the homosexuals, so you may be on to something

But if a male Catholic priest (or any other priest) diddles a male child, then yes they are a pedo and a homo.

If I recall, it seemed most of the stories in the original scandal were male on male.

Is it fair that leftist states are screaming to keep their illegals so that they can count them in the census to get more representation than they rightfully should have?

So much this. It's ludicrous I get accused of supporting all the crazy just because I lean left. I too have no voted straight ticket and 99% of the people I'm accused of voting for aren't even on my ballot in College Station.

Oh, and a warning, I drew a ban for just saying the word echoes.

Notice how there were no ICE protests when they only went after violent illegals and kept the border secure. But then they started deporting hardworking community members who have been here for decades. Then they ripped families apart, started showing up and schools, churches, in masks and unmarked cars. They deleted visas and kidnapped foreign students off the street. They accused people of gang affiliation and sent them to 3rd world prisons. They arrested AMERICAN CITIZENS and kept them till they found out. They also show up at courthouses where immigrants are in the process or trying to become legal. Cruelty is the name of their game. They aren't helping anyone or improving anything about our country. The only result of all of this will be broken families and neglected children (who will likely turn to crime/gangs because ICE deported the father figure).
Arrested =/= "kidnapped", and once your case fails, you are illegally in this country. Do you believe those people would have walked out of court and back to their country of origin?
Being in TexAgs jail changes a man……..no, not really

Because you must destabilize the nation to have a Communist revolution. What better way than to import tens of millions that have zero loyalty to the country or its founding values?

My media, lol. Do you think I vote for representatives from other states? Do you think I get to vote on policy makers outside of my city, county, state? I live in archer county Texas so these people you speak of are not people I've put in office. I have never voted a straight party ticket in my life. I vote for people in my district that are aligned with the ideas that best serve my family. It just cracks me up how people like you get on here and think anyone who isn't maga or who doesn't align with the far right is part of the problem. I am left of center and I have never experienced any of these extreme leftist activities that you guys propagate on here daily. My kid goes to public schools and no one is teaching him about sexuality in elementary school. There are no ice riots going on where I live. Yet you want to say because I belief in policy that is left leaning I am to blame for this???? You are a joke. You are a sheep just as much as the people you disparage. You live in a media world and on social media to the extent you think anyone who disagrees with your train of thought is out here promoting violence and lawlessness. It's hysterical. Get outside. Get involved in your community. If you live somewhere that you are having to deal with all these miserable leftist consider moving somewhere to be around like minded individuals. This is such an echo chamber it makes me laugh to see all of y'all getting your panties in a wad over things you will never be able to control or impact. A bunch of hens clucking is all this is lol.


So you only care about your little area and f the rest of the Country? Did I get that right?

Not getting out to oppose the violence and lawlessness you are just as guilty as those committing it.

Sheep typically stay quite silent whilst the wolves scurry around thinking the good shepherd will protect them as long as they stand still and quiet. You are the sheep, not the other people willing to speak out on the leftist crap.

If you believe that there are just "things you will never be able to control or impact", then it seems like you are the one who has given up.

And bloviating about how you have it right and everyone are dumbarses for caring, that is the literal definition of a hen clucking.

The left always does seem to project their faults on others.

I 100% only care about my family and my little corner of the world. I certainly don't care about you or what you do in your spare time. If you think coming to this "think tank" and espousing your right view ideology is making a difference in the world I've got news for you lol. You come here for self validation from like minded individuals because you need that to feel like you are right and to help you sleep better. What are you doing to make a change patriot??? You gonna fly out to LA and put a stop to this??? You gonna sign up for the national guard??? lol no you are gonna come to F-16 and hunt for blue stars. I know your bit all too well!!!
You are my hero. I espouse a similar sentiment. One thing I think you are wrong about, and I know this because I am likely similar to you, is that you do care about other people. In fact, it's people like you who say "I 100% only care about my family and my little corner of the world." that would be the first person in my yard if I needed help. It's the ones that say "i love everyone and I love my neighbors and want to do the best for the country" that are full of **** and are nowhere to be found when hard times come to their so called neighbors. I'd be happy to have you as a neighbor for multiple reasons, namely being that you keep to yourself, speak what you think, and won't lie to my face...and of course...you not only would actually help if I was really in a bind, you would be the most likely to actually be capable of doing so.

You are also right about the echo chamber and the fact that none of us are going to change a single solitary thing about any situation in america right now except that which is in our own little world.

Moderate here. Voted for Trump.

They state that's it's because of no due process, state sponsored kidnapping, and government overreach. They also claim that some of the ICE raids are taking place at areas where illegal immigrants are in the process of becoming legal immigrants.

Their concerns have some merit, but due to the influx of illegal immigrants, this has to happen. This is a national security issue.

Too many got through during Biden administration and there aren't enough courts to process them.
On this topic, I believe it is this simple. Opposition just won't critically think through what happened in past 4 years (too many). It's no longer simple to help legitimate migration because of the hurried, illicit agendas to flood US quickly.

Eventually I came to the conclusion they aren't dumb. They are evil. Dumb doesn't cover 3nough bases. Evil? Checks a lot of the boxes.
