Refugees are not eligible to v**e. And anyone stupid enough to believe otherwise shouldn’t be allowed to v**e.

Not i******s.
Seeking asylum .

They come every year .
The weather forcing them out of their own countries .
I never hear they’ve made it to the border .
That would be News wouldn’t it ?
But it always fizzles out before they get here.
It is not illegal to seek refuge or asylum in this country .

I sure wish you would break into my house seeking asylum. We could use a good nigress around here.

Texas needs to send out gunships. After removing about 5 thousand they say :
1) the feds won’t repel invaders so we will
2) and the survivors will go back and spread the word - Don’t mess with the Special Investigators, oops, I meant The Texas Rangers !
One Ranger ; one minigun; one Pilot and away they go. C’mon Governor Abbot - fight back.

It’s about time we take back Texas!………….REMEMBER THE ALAMO!

What about you. You emmigrated from a country that you currently despise. These people are doing the same thing. You don't have any pity on them. The majority of them have walked more than a thousand miles with the hope of a better life. What did you do to get here?
I know we can't take in everybody that wants to come here. We have needed a humane immigration policy for two decades. We may get something soon.

The difference is, my family came here LEGALLY! .. Do YOU understand what LEGALLY means??? We followed the laws... These people do NOT!!!... I do NOT despise Russia, I DO despise government as in Putin!!!

Proud Republican is a perfect example of what is SUPPOSED to happen when people want to come to America to live permanently. We have i*********n l*ws that have been perfected over the years, and that have REQUIREMENTS for coming here.

All those people who are crossing illegally into the US are required to complete the following:

In order to become a U.S. citizen, all naturalization applicants must meet the following requirements (unless they qualify for an exemption or apply based on their U.S. military service):

- Be of the minimum required age (typically, at least 18)

- Continuously and physically live in the United States as a green card holder for a certain number of years

- Establish residency in the state or U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) district where they intend to apply

- Have “good moral character” (background checks for criminality/mental health issues)

- Be proficient in basic spoken and written English and demonstrate knowledge of U.S. history and government

- Register for military service (if of a certain age) and be willing to perform civil service when required

- Swear allegiance to the United States

*********************

And to be a "refugee" you can't just walk into a country and start living there. There is a process...and you have to be accepted into the country. When someone comes here claiming to be a refugee, this is what they must do:

To apply for refugee status within the United States, you must first receive a referral to the U.S. Refugee Admissions Program (USRAP). Even if the United Nations acknowledges you as a refugee, there's no guarantee it will refer you to the United States as opposed to some other country.

USRAP gives its highest priority to people who are identified and referred to the program by the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR), a U.S. embassy, or a designated nongovernmental organization (NGO). Second priority is given to groups of special humanitarian concern. The third priority is family reunification—bringing together spouses, unmarried children under 21, or parents of persons who were lawfully admitted to the U.S. as refugees or asylees.

If you've been selected by USRAP, you'll be asked to provide proof of your persecution and a detailed affidavit explaining what happened and why you are afraid to return to your home country. The affidavit is particularly important and should spell out details of what happened to you and what you fear would happen if you returned. (It's not enough to say something general like, "I was persecuted." To learn more about the kinds of persecution that entitle someone to protection, see Asylum or Refugee Status: Who Is Eligible?)

You'll also need to undergo a medical examination and investigations to determine whether you are a threat to the security of the United States.

After submitting your application, you will meet with an overseas asylum officer who will make a decision on your case. If approved, you will be given a visa that you can use to enter the United States. If your application for refugee status is denied, there is no opportunity for appeal.

*************************

The fact that these people are just showing up at our border - FROM ALL OVER THE WORLD - need to do one of the two things listed above.

Otherwise, they are here ILLEGALLY. And they are called "i*****l a***ns". Not "undocumented immigrants" or even just "immigrants". There is no such thing as an "undocumented" immigrant. That is a made-up phrase that people use when they try to make what is happening at the border seem "legal". And an "immigrant" is someone who travels to a country with the intention of living there permanently and LEGALLY, and goes through the LEGAL requirements to be a LEGAL American CITIZEN.

You didn't answer my question. You probably flew here. You probably asked for asylum. So what is the difference in asking for asylum from the border than from a foreign city? You were just pre-approved. The current wave is not. These people have dates in courts. They are years away because Republicans refuse to give money for more judges. The Republicans have refused for years to support sensiable immigration reform. So just suck it up.
