Of course you're free to be afraid, actually be very affraid, buy guns because somehow they'll save your country but most importantly be affraid of the well trained and fully equipped invading forces...
And more guns will serve them well, they'll dont even have to bring them to invade your home, just check the nightstand drawer...
Appart from right wing fear mongering media outlets spouting their fear driven propaganda there still has to be a shred of actual proof migration is a coordinated effort...
People who jump on that bandwagon are showing how critical thinking gets circumvented when fear is at the forefront of their reasoning...
How are children being raped and murdered by foreigners right-wing propaganda?
The majority of child rapes and murders in the USA are done by American citizens. Usually, but not always, these are done by someone known to the child, and with frequent access. Some are even done by family members.
Asking for the brutalized deceased and the bereaved families. Thanks in advance.
Unless you’re suggesting that none of this has happened. Mayor of Aurora, is that you?
There are occurrences of individual crimes that get a lot of press. Crime statistics are nowhere near as salacious, but through sheer weight of numbers the paint a clearer picture of the overall situation.

In the same vein I disagree with Trump that we should be bombing Mexico because of the fentanyl trade that’s killed hundreds of thousand of Americans.
But to claim that they did it to themselves is akin to the argument you’re making.
I don’t wanna sound heartless. I’m not. I understand why people would want to come to the US. But that US is damn near a thing of the past because of liberal ideology and policy. I’m still liberal just not one the left would snuggle up to.
It has to do with sovereignty and law. What we let slide sets the precedent. Standards are set by what refuses to tolerate. And every day is a gift. So somewhere between those two truisms the West must make a stand or grab their ankles and shut up about it.
If we can’t respect that, why would we expect others to.
So how many dead Americans is enough for any kind of pushback in your book? When is enough, enough?

Isn't that what just happend with your post?
Your all bold opinion is totally true and applicable to most xenophobes...
What I don’t get is this. If you’re gonna bring this up in a thread that has nothing to do with Covid deaths, then address why Japan just announced almost 100M have been infected with nanobots.

I'm fairly sure that if you cared about the numbers of dead Americans, you might call into question those who refused to vaccinate, wear masks, or sanitize, and who attended political rallies and other super-spreader events at the height of a pandemic that took over a million American lives.

Calm down.
Nobody is trying to invade the USA.
Criminals do criminal stuff, and, according to the FBI, most crimes in the US are done by Caucasian citizens.
Remember when it was the Italian Mafia, the Japanese Yakuza, the Russia Bratva, the Chinese Triads. It's always someone else, at least on the telly.
I feel so much better now. A loser from the other side of the globe has assured me that the million and a half "got aways" that came into the country over the last 3.5 years are all peaceful and not at all gang members. Sleep well my friends, we have been told by the ultimate authority, all is well.
Sure, some of them are gang members, but not all of them.
Even if every last one was a gang member, each of those alleged 1.5 million 'undocumented' is still outnumbered 220 to 1.
And I'm no authority, but neither are you. LOL.
I just don't believe the BS from bigots who have neither credibility nor capability with simple math and who never seem to look-up online statistics.

No they haven't eradicated crime, and there are people who are affraid to walk the streets at midnight and there are those who aren't...
It's a basic trust in life and the good things in humans, once you loose that your life becomes a misserable place...
Dehumanizing rhetoric certainly makes it easier, but in the end it just goes to show once own morals...
Live is deadly you can either live it in fear of death or not. If my life is threatened by showing the other cheek so be it. Taking somone else's life is not and never will be my call, like i said life is deadly without me playing God... You will die with or without guns, not taking other peoples life along the way probably helps in the end...
Still. Not. One. Original. Thought. About. This. Thread.

Do you now...
I'm team anti idiots pushing xenophobic propaganda...
I have no political affiliation.
seems like projecting your dichotomous worldview is limiting your capability to think critically and account for all the shades in between... Again
Maybe an anti-migrant group has begun to spread the notion that these ''yellow?'" buses are free buses or even cheap buses that can be used by the public so that groups of migrants will wait at a bus stop for the bus and then want to get on
number is most likely higher than that
