  1.  @RevanMartinez  It's not half of the country, thankfully.

  2.  @Sjjekoaopw  That is precisely what I am trying to say. A Portuguese-style solution would be a big improvement.

  3.  @WANDERER0070  You are one twisted fuck. Jerome-Gelb is correct: see Portugal.

  4.  @pedromeneses5661  Not so.

  6.  @Brioli  Actually, it does make sense to violently combat KKK members and all others like them. The masks are for safety and security.

  7.  @Brioli  Were British Antifa wrong to smash Oswald Mosley's British Union of Fascists in the 1930s? Were German, Italian, and other European (and Asian!) Antifa wrong to try the same thing? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battle_of_Cable_Street

  8. No, it's said explicitly in the video that there is a demand for workers. The problem is that there are almost no visas for lower-skilled workers, hence the market finds a way: undocumented workers. Also, using the suffix "tard" is really immature.

  9.  @soundsofsoundsof  Children aren't involved in abortion, unless you count underage girls, and they die when abortion is underground and unsafe.

  11. You literally watched a few videos? As opposed to watching them figuratively?

  13. The meth comes in via trucks.

  14. Those trucks are not off-roading through the desert.

  16. As others have pointed out, these drugs don't come in on foot through the desert. Besides, we can fight against drugs the Portuguese way.

  17. @Neighborhood-Griot Chann... Indeed. Of course, it's not just Western white men.

  18. There's plenty of home-cooked meth in the US, and besides, a closed border would be economically catastrophic.

  19. And yet Antifa are the bad guys, apparently.

  20. Antifa punch KKK members. Always have, always will.

  21.  @Brioli  There's too much to respond to here. I know this is hackneyed, but it's appropriate: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5hfYJsQAhl0

  22. I'm not sure that I understand what this means.

  23.  @iamthefuss934  Yeah. I see that now, but "lowkey"? "Shawty"? What?

  26. This is somewhat off the main point, but all the "play" talk seems phony. It just doesn't sit well with me. Just say "sex."

  27. Meanwhile, in Southeast Asia, possession of drugs, even a certain amount of marijuana, can result in the death sentence.

  28. The meth is coming in via truck. Also, please learn about punctuation.

  29.  @perseusrex614  No, they aren't (directly) smoking meth because they don't have visas. Labor shortages in certain sectors are not necessarily due to low wages, and besides, low wages aren't (for the most part) caused by migration as much as they are by lack of unionization and other weak labor laws.
    1
  30.  @perseusrex614  You misunderstand. Unionization is one crucial way to obtain decent wages, and, crucially, humane working conditions. That's not an ideal solution for a variety of reasons, which is why radical unions like the IWW have always advocated workplace democracy. Anyway, times of high unionization in the US were also times when many workers could spend more of their own money, which is a stimulus. Market forces operate within whatever framework is at play. Plus, on top of all of that, migration is self-limiting, in large part due to remittances. Rich-country money goes a long way in less-wealthy places. There's a reason why net migration with Mexico has recently been around 0. Also, you do understand how destructive US foreign and economic policies force people into the migrant stream, right?

  31.  @hydrohealer6504  You are being disingenuous, I hope.

  33. Es-cape, not ex-scape! Arrrghghgh!

  34. No, a great many of them (and quite a few conservatives, libertarians, etc.) want to turn the city into something like Portugal, where drug possession is decriminalized and drug use is *down*.

  35. Otherwise there would be an HIV and/or hepatitis epidemic.

  39. Yes, and maybe then they will support dealing with drugs the Portuguese way.

  40. Absolutely. Stop pleading out in cases like this.

  41. Not all prisons are for-profit, but those that are have very serious perverse incentives (like all prisons do, for differing reasons).

  42. Yeah, and some people are probably ignorant/loopy enough to want to build it across all the roads and other crossings.

  43. Watch "Day of Rage" as well. It's outstanding.

  44.  @geraldthebusdriver3491  Absolutely.

  45.  Plexxar  Not according to surveys, and public opinion is heavily surveyed in the US. Besides that, the electorate in a given election isn't anywhere close to 100% of the adult population, so if we take Trumpists as a rough proxy for people who are likely to have these attitudes, it's not close to half of the population.

  46. In most of the country, that's true.

  47. Thank you. So many people here are criticizing her hair, which I didn't even notice when I watched the video.

  48.  @rianmattes8292  It's subjective.
