I you were truly concerned with the economy you would realize that the production of light bulbs is now an Asian province. The ecology suffers as well since the materials used in the more modern lights pollute more than the old incandescent bulbs and the Asians do not bother with any EPA style regulations. In this country the bulbs require special handling for disposal but this is universally ignored. There is a significant difference in cost to achieve the same illumination as the older bulbs provided. I don't know where you are getting these light sources that rarely burn out but my experience is that they burn out frequently and have the potential of setting the house on fire. Crappy quality control and cheap labor do not make for a high quality product.

Why do Kevyns buy into propaganda? The last thing anyone wants is to have an airbag deploy since it does an enormous amount of damage on its own. Luddites may or may not want to go back but what rankles most is that they were given no choice. Incandescents were outlawed without consideration of the ancillary damage done to the environment or economy. Some technological advances are not necessarily good advances.

That has been my experience as well. Another big government unnecessary interference. Let the purchaser make the decision; if the new bulbs are better they will outsell the old style. But there are plenty of places the old bulbs, which are much cheaper, do a fine job, especially for those places where they sit for years and are only used infrequently. The oldest incandescent bulb is still burning over a hundred years. I doubt the new ones will ever reach that. I don't see more than a doubling of life for the new bulbs, except maybe for the LED type, and the cost is way more than twice. The energy use is what you choose so you can save some there, but again it is not proportional to the cost of the bulb so any way you cut it, you are paying more. Your point about disposal is also true and is, I agree, being ignored. Wait until they have to remediate a landfill or two!

No one in that caravan thinks they're going to us force to enter that's trumps bs!
That will do what the last caravan did camp peacefully by the border crossing and stand in line every day from morning to night to present their papers and a chance to apply for asylum. Trump had a bipartisan immigration bill on his desk and wouldn't sign it do hes also part of the problem!


So if I had walked and suffered to arrive at the border and find that I was not entitled to asylum because I had already come through several other countries on the way and failed to apply for asylum there which makes me ineligible to apply at the US border I would come back day after day applying for asylum even though I knew it would be a waste of time and anyway I don't have any money so my family and I would have to be starving. But according to you I would do it day after day Morning to Night.

Sorry, can't see that happening.

What I see is that I would just move along the border till I found a weak spot and cross there. I would lie and say I was Mexican without documents and the Border Patrol, swamped with i******s, would give me a ride to the nearest town, a meal and a bus ticket so I could disappear. I would head to a Sanctuary City or a relative, buy ID from a scalper and work off the books if necessary, find money somehow, commit crimes if I had to, and do my best to bring this country down because I don't know any better and never made the trek to become a citizen anyway.

But hey, if any of these Gringos ever come to MY country we would show them how we handle i******s!

Who the heck ever told you that?

Like all the other caravans, they will come to the border, in a few weeks, and apply for status as immigrants or refugees..

The same as so many others.. who has told you things that you now believe this group is somehow different?

A champion of orange? or did you watch the orange mouth say those words to the camera..

You cannot get away from politics can you. The facts don't matter to you.

Who cares what any politician says or does, none of them have the right to change the Constitution or make their own laws.

These people have traveled thousands of miles over weeks and will be feeling pretty frustrated if the border is closed to them. You claim they will simply turn around and march back to where they came from? I doubt it. I would put it to you that many of them will simply move along the border until they find a weak spot and walk right on through. Getting caught by the Border Patrol is part of the plan because that way they get to claim sanctuary and after that they know they will be here years before they get caught again.

You have let trump frighten you.. Stop that and think for yourself.. If you dont, it will cost your kids for all their lives..


There you go with your political talking points, trying to belittle someone who has a different opinion instead of discussing the facts.

I am not afraid of these people, I don't live in fear of them. I do fear the Liberals because they are trying their best to destroy this country, but it is not a fear that disables me or prevents me from fighting back against their plans. I have said, and I say again, that allowing these caravan people in is illegal, because there are definite laws associated with immigration or asylum and those laws are not being followed because the Liberals prevent it by the use of emotive language, lies and political pressure. I had to know the law in order to migrate here, and I know what I am talking about. I stand with my hand on my heart at least twice a month to publicly recite the pledge of allegiance. When was the last time (if ever) that you have done the same?

I doubt that you have taken the time to study it but are happy to take the talking points of the liberal press/tv on which to form your opinions. If you want to disagree with me, how about doing so on the basis of the law? Explain to me why legal immigrants are held to a certain standard whereas i*****l a***ns are given not only a pass but also assistance and financial support? Where is the justice? The level playing field? Is it because someone who enters legally is more able to support himself, is more likely to take responsibility for himself and his family and is less likely to v**e Democrat? Or do you have a different explanation?

Truly, I am just trying to understand the way Liberals think and maybe find out why they have so much h**e in their souls. This country will not be defeated by an external enemy but from within and I can easily see who that enemy is but I don't understand why there are so many of them or why they so passionately want to destroy the USA . The caravan is only a symptom of the greater disease (liberalism) that affects this country and it is that disease that will k**l it.

[quote=permafrost]None of these people will get special treatment only the evil trump says that..

the vast majority of these will be declined and go home. Or at least elsewhere..

maybe 15% will get serous consideration..[/quo

The ones who don't get in will move along the border a little ways and sneak in where they will stay in Sanctuary Cities run by fellow Liberals and live off the books. Entering using criminal behavior and continuing using criminal behavior then dropping a kid who will illegally be considered an Anchor Baby meanwhile illegally claiming entitlements using a f**e SS number, DL, etc, wallowing in it without bothering to assimilate or become a true American, bringing his/her filth with him/her trying to change this country into the hell-hole they left behind, all thanks to the Useful I***ts who either know no better or are willingly supporting the destruction, one illegal at a time, of this once-great nation.

Enjoy it while you have it. Hope you and yours will be happy when it all comes down. Take a look at San Francisco for a preview.

boof, you have got this all wrong.. I have not seen anyone saying this convoy or anyone in it should be admitted to this nation without following our laws..

Most of us are simply pointing out that they are far from any sort of "army" and in no way are they capable of a "invasion" that is all BS promoted by the orange ding bat to move the debate from all his misdeeds to
anything else. anything at all..

We have a family friend who is an immigrant, it took her 15 years to become a citizen. it was such a great thing for her, she bubbled about it for weeks..

Now, being here for at least 20 years, she still will remark to my wife how wonderful the food stores are.. she loves food shopping.. food everywhere, she loves that more than she can tell us..

Something has value until it is free. Giving anyone free entry to the USA to people like those in these "caravans" as you support makes the efforts of people like me and your family friend and what they achieved valueless.

If these people did not follow the process required for immigration but are given entry based on their presence at the border, together with the implied and actual violence and threats, with no background checks, medical, family connections or ability to support themselves, or provide a sk**lset that has value, they ARE an invasion.

How about putting a price on a movie ticket of $100, you pay that and go in to find all the seats filled by people who paid nothing, and they spend the time talking and playing so you cannot even enjoy the movie you paid so much for? And in addition they throw popcorn at you and your kids, get drunk and steal the tires off you car while you are inside the movie theater! And in the end, what becomes of that movie theater? Will you go back? Will you let your kids go? For movie theater, substitute USA and you will get my drift.

And citizenship is not just free food. It is an obligation as well as an achievement and has a cost in dedication, obligation, support and assistance. It is not sitting around on benefits as is the aim of so many of those you want to see come in to this country for free. If you don't earn it you will not value it. I think you have proved my point already.

I am a legal immigrant. I h**e and oppose giving a free pass to people who did not have to go through the process I went through. I did find the process onerous and it cost me a lot of money and years of my time but it was for a Green Card and later Citizenship that I am proud to have. I had restrictions such as being able to support myself or have a sponsor who could do that for me. At present I am a sponsor for one of my kid's wife who is not a US citizen and if she needs it I am on the hook for fully supporting her. Point is it was not easy, is not free but it is worth it.

Now you want to allow a bunch of crazies (see the videos) whom you know NOTHING about and are NOT vetted or checked and have no restrictions applied, to have residence and citizenship that they have not earned or applied for or deserve. By lying about their true circumstances. By intimidation. And by the support that the brain-dead liberals give them.

Every one of these deadbeats (and there may be some deserving individuals among them but you have no way to identify them) can then bring an unlimited number of "relatives" with them and will be able to claim an unlimited number of "relatives" they support back in Syria or Venezuela on their taxes (if they pay any) and ALL of them will be able to receive benefits.

And guess who pays for all this? The benefits may come out of taxes but the costs of administrating the entry of these i******s comes out of a general fund for immigration that is paid by fees from, guess who? LEGAL immigrants. Legal immigrants who then go to the end of the line while these criminals are given priority!

I can't tell you how mad it makes me and how disappointed I am that this country allows this s**m to continue. I am not surprised that it is supported by the Useful I***ts but I am surprised that there are so many of those who were born here and by their actions show that they are totally ignorant of the laws and customs of the USA and seem to be driven by a hatred of their homeland, willing to see it go down in flames rather than open their eyes and minds to see the t***h. It should not be a partisan issue, but one of common sense and an ability to look forward to see the risks and benefits of having open borders and no laws.

You may not value this country and what it stands for, and you may be happy to give it away and to see it change to a hell-hole (which it will if this policy is not controlled) but I AM NOT and I will fight against it to my last breath because I am a patriot. Unlike you I wanted to be a citizen of this country and I earned that right and paid for it. Maybe that makes me protective and a little excited but I would not be proud to be here otherwise.

Not a thing to be concerned about with this group of people.

It is an annual event. most are running from criminal gangs that have ended normal living standards in central america..

Never invaded? What happened when the British burned the white house??


In this day you can actually see these people, and the group following, as well as read about their activities so there is nothing surprising about them; they are easy to label based on actual evidence. None of that supports what you believe. They are obviously well fed, have a feeling of entitlement, know that the liberals in this country will fight for them and fully expect to be allowed to enter under a claim of sanctuary whereupon they will disappear without turning up for their court hearings. Their intent is to continue to break the law, any law, to get what they feel they deserve even though they have not earned it. They express rage, violence, most are young men, are probably carrying diseases, show extreme disrespect to Mexico and to the US as a way of intimidating the officials of both countries, and show that the law does not apply to them.

Even if only 10% get through that exposes this country to very serious problems and if they succeed, they will be followed by thousands more, as they have been doing for decades, making a mockery of our laws and customs in the process.

To a Liberal, they make perfect immigrants, so long as they v**e Democrat.

Put aside your politics, which is obviously (again, based on what is shown in these pages about you) your only basis for your opinion on this subject, and think for just one second about it as you would if you were a patriotic citizen with kids and a possibility of grandkids. Seriously; are you crazy?

WE’RE UNDER fire, we’re under fire. He’s got an automatic weapon,” was the report Saturday morning from one of the first police officers to respond to the shooting at the Tree of Life synagogue in Pittsburgh. Minutes later, another officer radioed, “We’re taking on AK-47 fire from out the front of the synagogue.” Before the gunman was captured, four police officers were wounded and 11 people had been shot to death.

Once again, a piece of America had been turned into a war zone. Once again, the casualties were innocent people engaged in the rhythms of everyday life — this time, mostly elderly people practicing their religion. Once again, the question must be asked of what it will take — how many more mass shootings, lost lives and devastated communities — before Congress enacts sensible gun control that includes banning weapons designed for war.

According to authorities, the accused murderer in Saturday’s shooting — a 46-year-old man who reportedly proclaimed he wanted “all Jews to die” — was armed with three handguns and an AR-15, all of which he legally owned. The AR-15 or a variation of it has been used in other terrible, tragic mass shootings: in February at a high school in Parkland, Fla. (17 dead and 17 injured); in 2017 at a Las Vegas music concert (58 dead, hundreds injured); in 2016 at a nightclub in Florida (49 dead, 53 injured); in 2012 at a movie theater in Colorado (12 dead, 58 injured) and in 2012 at an elementary school in Newtown, Conn. (26 dead, two injured).

Assault-style weapons and large-capacity magazines are the weapon of choice of mass murderers precisely because of their capability to k**l the most people in the shortest time. Mass shootings account for a minority of gun fatalities, but the use of assault weapons greatly increases the rates of death and injury as well as the severity of injuries. As was vividly underscored by Saturday’s events, the risk they pose to law enforcement is great and should give lie to those who think the solution to gun violence is even more guns.

Polls consistently show that a majority of Americans support laws prohibiting assault weapons. Significant numbers of gun owners — 48 percent, according to a 2017 Pew Research Center poll — also support a ban on assault-style weapons. The previous national ban on assault weapons, enacted by Congress in 1994 but allowed to expire in 2004, showed a decrease in the use of assault weapons in crime. Gun policy experts asked by the New York Times to rate the effectiveness of policy changes to prevent mass shootings gave their highest ratings to a ban on assault weapons and high-capacity magazines.

The slaughter of little children at Sandy Hook Elementary School should have been enough to persuade Congress to ban assault weapons and enact other common-sense measures. That it wasn’t is both tragedy and disgrace. The carnage that has followed — the Tree of Life shooting being the most recent — has unfortunately failed to stiffen the spines of national lawmakers. But v**ers next week will have the chance to send their own message. They should elect a Congress that will protect them by enacting long-overdue gun reform that includes getting weapons of war off America’s streets and out of its schools, theaters, churches and synagogues.

A few hundreds of lives lost every year due to AR15 use in crime, which is against the law by the way (duh) compared to over a million babies torn apart in the womb in the same timeframe.

If you don't agree that a******n is a crime then you have no moral right to complain about the use of guns or any other outrage you might see.

We can stop this American carnage (a******n) just the same way we can stop the use of AR15s in crime. Enforce the law.

There are laws against murder and against the use of force against the civilian population already. Enforce them. If necessary, use armed guards or have more police on scene or encourage armed citizens. Make it too difficult for the bad guys to succeed.

Meanwhile show your moral courage by enforcing the law against casual (for convenience) a******n. I bet you don't know that Roe v Wade does not allow for the murder of so many innocent babies. It merely standardized the a******n laws in the country; it did not allow for a******n on demand. Only a******ns in the first trimester are legal and only then if a Physician affirms that it is medically necessary. How about we put those a******n doctors on trial if they cannot medically show that the a******n was necessary? How about we go after those doctors who approve a******ns for second and third trimester without sound medical evidence that if not carried out the mother or baby is at serious risk of death (as RvW requires)?

Just as we could do something about guns without hurting the rights of citizens, we can save our children and stop illegal invasions and many other outrages we face on a daily basis if we follow the law. And we save more lives. Simple, eh?

If this guy claimed he was a Republican the party would toss him out. It is far more likely that it was a false f**g attack than that he was a Republican. Republicans do not commit crimes especially violent crimes. It is totally against what Republicans stand for to even suggest that it is possible.

Anyway the latest info is that he is actually a registered Democrat and was publicly supporting the Democrats as late as 2016. As a convicted felon he cannot in fact be registered as either so I would hold off a little if I were you before making these accusations.

Saying he was a Trump "follower" or Trump "fan" as in your story above is easy to claim but it says nothing factual about who he was or what his mind-set was. From what has been released already he was rather weird, another reason that it is highly doubtful that he was a Republican and he was most definitely not a conservative.

It is incomprehensible to me why so many native-born Americans h**e this country and what it stands for as much as they do. Why they want to turn it into a lawless version of Venezuela except for the addition of the Moslem Caliph**e. Imagine what the USA would be with Hillary or Sanders in charge. Jimmy Carter's America on steroids. Do you, any of you, remember what America was like during the Carter administration? No, I didn't think so.

Relying on an ABC film crew to tell you if this crowd of diseased, lawless criminal fools and their useless buddies have any potential terrorists among them is surely a sign of idiocy. To the ABC reporters, the only terrorist they would recognize is an honest white man or woman who has a job, pays his taxes, gives charity and shows respect, but v**es Republican.

These people wending their way to our borders where they fully intend to pass through in order to collect money from the taxpayers in the form of benefits, who know that if they can get in they are virtually sure of remaining here for many years, if not the rest of their lives, are encouraged to do so by the Useful I***ts, scum lawyers, corrupt politicians and do-gooders, who share one thing: they v**e Democrat.

Your grandfathers and uncles (and grandmothers and aunts, for that matter) who fought to save this country during the last great war would be spinning in their graves if they could see what the generations since then, their descendants, have become.
