  1.  Laura Lafauve  He didn't call them illegal human beings, he said they were illegal aliens. That is, people from somewhere else who illegally entered a country not their own. The phrase "human being" is not synonymous with "alien". Your sophistry does not change the fact that they are indeed illegal aliens. Yours is childish argument.

  2.  @julesmasseffectmusic  Logically, that would be a really good plan, if the smugglers know the authorities will take them in. Think about all the people who crossed the US southern border illegally, then quickly turned themselves in and claimed asylum. And why do you call him third world? Isn't that where the illegal aliens are coming from? Do you think he is one of them?

  3. Perhaps we should get rid of the Mexico City rule, and start funding birth control aid again. But, then Trump made the ban even more draconian.

  4. Economic migrants are not refugees. If these people were being killed because they belonged to some persecuted minority who faced death for who they are, then they would be refugees. They aren't, therefore do not need asylum and all your name calling is baseless and just nasty.

  5. The majority of illegal aliens Italy is dealing with come from Africa, mostly the Sudan. Wars in *Iraq*, Afghanistan and Syria did not cause them to leave Africa. They absorbed many of them, and now they have said enough. That is their right. Move to Italy and become a citizen, if you want to change the way Italy administers her own borders.

  6. California has enough illegal aliens of its own. I grew up there, but left after the problem got too bad. First Californians tried to stem the flow and elected Wilson, then California just gave in. What caused it was Reagan stopped penalizing the people who hire them. They are coming to work. If employers pay a stiff fine, they won't hire illegal workers. No jobs, and they don't come. And as to seasonal farm work, prior to Reagan, we did very well with the bracero program. You don't like illegal aliens in the US, don't blame Democrats, blame Reagan.

  7. What does Syria have to do with Sudanese invading Europe?

  8. No, this is what happens when people have more offspring than local resources can maintain. There should be an outcry about over population. There should be an outcry about societies that do not allow their daughters the same education as their sons, and only treat females a breeding machines. There should be an outcry about religions that do not allow birth control.

  9. You forget the bit where Bryd quit, then utterly repudiated, the KKK. It was only when he had doggedly worked for full civil rights that he was given that moniker. You also forget how all the bigoted Southern Democrats fled the party for the Republicans, calling themselves the moral majority, after the Civil Rights Bill was passed.

  10. Israel has enough problems with people sneaking in, without the EU bringing more. Nor is Israel part of the EU, that would be like transporting them to Japan. Spain and Portugal also, already have enough illegals arriving by boat. If you don't want them to go home, take them to Turkey, Lebanon, Albania or Morocco, where they have the same religion.

  11.  @Rhiannon011  This mess was going on under Obama too. Did you blame him. Trump may have done a lot of terrible things, but he is not causing people to leave Africa and illegally enter Europe.

  12. Perhaps if people had fewer children, they would be able to feed those they have, and would not feel the need to leave their homes. The people doing the oppression are not Europeans. Why should they pay the price?
