I'm quite well-versed in foreign policy, and I promise you, I know 100 times more about the government of the United States than you appear (in fact, I know more about most governments than most people, so I'm not sure what you're talking about). And no matter how much you hate America for whatever reason (maybe you had an ex American lover who left you or maybe you attended a third-rate American college and majored in sociology and are now angry at America because you can't find a job that pays you more than $20,000 a year?) no one country has done more good for the world than the USA. You do realize that bomb dropping saved the world from speaking German and the extinction of Jews, right? The axis powers had plenty of opportunity to end the war, so the US was forced to intervene with its bomb for the sake of humanity when they didn't and after Japan attacked the USA at Pearl Harbor. In addition, her economic prosperity and models of capitalism have removed more people from poverty than any other country or economic system on the face of the planet. The USA will remain the most powerful and important country the world has ever seen for the long-foreseeable future, no matter how much you hate it.
Oh, and your "argument is so cogent that I just can't discuss this any further?" LOL. What does that even mean? Oh, I know, that usually means, you have no idea what you're talking about and so that's how you "bail-out" of the conversation.
You are fucking deluded, bro. I'm not talking about post-WWII. I'm talking about the past 20 years. Obama's administration where he got to be the drone king has only been superseded by this current one where a bomb is dropped every 12 minutes in your name.
And see, one more person who can't but resort to ad hominem attacks. Cos I couldn't possibly have my own thoughts on the horror that I see going on unabated, no matter which of your tribal red or blue teams is in power. I must have been jilted by some American lover. I mean, how fucking old are you anyway?
Don't bother responding. I'm not reading or responding to any more comments from this post from now on - which originally was about how the US government goes about treating people arriving on its borders. It isn't about your right to secure them. It's about the way it's being done that's the problem. And yeah, yewh, spare me the tribal issues about which party did what. I know it's been a law but not enforced since Clinton. I'm beyond sick of hearing about tribal level bickering when both parties are as fetid and pus-ridden as each other. You're all in a trap of division and conquering if you keep continuing this Red vs Blue game. I can't bear any more of it right now.
Uhm, the past 20 years is post-WWII. I didn't make any "ad homimem attacks" against you in the previous post either. I pointed out a few reasons why you might be displaying as much irrational anger as you are. I think I must have nailed it regarding the lover, because it seems I must have touched a nerve as you now seem to have come unhinged a bit (shocking: an unhinged socialist, imagine that).
I'm really amused by your comments about dropping bombs. Your "argument" is that during the past 20 years, the Obama and Trump administrations have dropped some bombs (keep in mind that is only 9.5 years not 20). The flaw of course, is that you are under this wildly wrong impression that the military just goes around dropping bombs for no reason at all. It seems (again, not surprising given your seemingly Marxist predilections), that you'd prefer the world be overrun with ISIS (or Nazi) terrorist who blasphemize the Quran for personal gain. At some point you need to ask yourself, why do you continue supporting Jihadi terrorists and why the US has dropped a single bomb at all? All the bomb droppings could stop tomorrow if those who chose to use Islam for personal gain and power would stop their nearly indiscriminate murdering.
Again, you've simply said, "don't bother responding" because you don't want to engage in a conversation, where you know you will lose the argument. But's it's self-evident that you've already lost -- and not just the argument.
You are the one who needs educating, you have a right to your opinion, but it’s my right to tell you how wrong you are in this instance.
A border less world is a dangerous world, there will never be peace amongst humans, someone will always want what you have and they’ll fight to get it. The United States has the highest standards of living even among its poor, of course the whole world wants what she has, but to what end? Our own citizens should come first and immigration is a privilege that must be earned just like my ancestors earned theirs! Freedom is not free!
