Poll: immigration has become the No. 1 issue for voters in 2018

you make the mistake in assuming that all of the people who cited immigration as their top issue are of the Jeff Session, draconian, 'keep der brewns outta mai land!' variety.

there's a huge segment of the country that wants a pathway to citizenship for undocumented people.. and to abolish ICE.

They're illegal not undocumented. Quit using newspeak.
 
I wonder though what the Democrats are going to do considering Mollie Tibbetts parents will never be able to hug or kiss their daughter again because of a vicious illegal immigrant. Or Kate Steinle's parents.

It is shame Geo.

Did Breitbart give you your talking points about Mollie Tibbetts or did Townhall?

I just want to say, I don't find this funny at all. Posting MEMES and making light of this savage murder is a bit disgraceful.

Geoist, Checkerboard, Winston:

Just admit you support open borders so it creates more votes for Democrats. You don't find illegal immigrants to be a problem in this country for obvious immoral reasons.

Semantics is fun.

You know what else.. I heard if you just say the words Radical Islamic Terror, strung together like that. Go ahead, try it. Then 2 Muslim guys get deported instantly after running successful liquor stores.

Weak Bifftarian attempt at trolling, not even as good as Slingshot Bob.
Try again.

No, Bucky I find your demagoguery and race baiting insulting to the undocumented immigrants that I consider friends.
 
We know they can lie. They've amply demonstrated the ability to lie.
But, so have Democrats.

Are we aiming for equalling things out now or are we still talking about immigration.
Not sure if you know my position on the issue, it's fairly simple and pretty mainstream.
 
The CATO institute is pro illegal immigration and their study was done with the result in mind.

It is irrelevant since all illegal immigrants violate the law, period

I bet you couldn't refute a single point from that link.

Everyone has broken the law. Don't tell me you never went twenty over the speed limit, inhaled/consumed an illegal substance, or drank underage. To pretend like illegal immigrants are on par with the worst criminals in our society is sickening, especially considering our country's history.

If Bucky doesn't find memes funny, then I guess I'd better go dig up a meme.
I don't buy any of Bucky's fabricated sincerity on this issue or any other.

I’m a citizen, I have a right to be in the US. Someone here illegally does not. Illegal immigrants must commit a crime to be here.

And no, I have never gone twenty mph over the limit.

Exploiting a tragic murder in order to demonize a whole group of people who seek a better life is disgraceful.

More often than not it is a civil violation that is handled in civil court. But keep pretending the foreigner who overstayed their green card is a threat to civil society...


And no, I have never gone twenty mph over the limit.

Funny, you only deny one of the examples of criminal activity. :lol: And I seriously doubt you never gone 20 over, unless you've always driven like a grandma.

They are a threat to civil society. If you overstay a visa then you committed fraud which is criminal, you signed a document promising to depart the county before expiry and chose not to, that’s not civil, that’s criminal.

I’ve never driven twenty over the limit, I’ve never used illegal drugs, and consumption of wine under 21 was legal in my case as the only time prior I consumed alcohol was the sacrament. Maybe you were a drug smoking reckless alcoholic, but pretending I must have been is projection.

By the way, I did recently visit Mexico and Chile, oddly enough I obeyed their immigration laws, so I don’t think it’s asking too much a foreigner obey my country’s laws since I myself do when I go abroad

What, so if they overstay their visa then they turn into werewolves on the next full moon? The obsession you guys have over such a mundane thing is hilariously sad.

Drinking before 21 makes one an alcoholic? :lamo Okay, whatever, pal.

For the record, I don't believe anything you said in that post. I know you don't care that I don't believe you, but it's just for the record. Not that it is crazy to have never used illegal substances, but to claim to have never driven 20 over just throws the credibility out.

Easy enough to do when you are traveling for business or pleasure and not running away from gangs/cartels threatening to behead your children.
 
With the images of children in cages and families being torn apart, you can bet immigration has become the issue for many on the left this year (your source shows only a 3% difference between Dems and Repubs on immigration).

I believe that YOU believe the left's focus in on immigration due to current events .

The left is as much as focused as any other time. The world was horrified with the Trump administration's total failure that is zero tolerance.

It wasn't just the left that was witness to Trump's total ineptness on immigration.

Compare Obama's DACA plan, who a majority of Americans support ..to zero tolerance and family separation; who no one supports.

Don't liberals do that after every school shooting?

Committing fraud in order to illegally enter the country is not mundane

The fact you had problems with alcohol before being 21 is not something you can just project on to me.

I have never operated a car 20 miles per hour over the speed limit. I can understand that since you believe criminals who've committed fraud deserve to live here without the appropriate nationality to do so, you probably don't take laws or public order that seriously. I however do and do not act to put the rest of the public at unacceptable risk of harm when I drive.

There is over 150,000,000 people in Mexico and yet there's not 150,000,000 people killed by cartels, Not everyone who claims to be in danger truly is. Regardless, danger from crime is not a valid reason to illegally immigrate to the US, especially since these people either snuck over the border or committed visa fraud their claims cannot be believed without being supplemented with credible evidence.

Thoughts and Prayers to baby 👶 snatcher Kelli Ward to win in tomorrow’s Arizona Senate Primary. Martha McSally is just a cleaned-up white-collar version of Ward.

McSally is the latest to run on her Service, Spotlighting it. (Already received reward) Joni Ernst used her Service also — Iowa — class of 2014 — has been an ineffectual disaster. Tom Cotton — another one using his Service — Class of 2014 Arkansas — Foreign Policy Bolton.

2020 is the year Democrats take back the Senate, strengthening it 2022.
