So interesting as well that no one talks about WHY this happened. Seems like the Mexican authorities decided to "scatter" the migrants, and some of them tried to cross over to get to safety, then, of course, we took the moral high ground and gassed them.
Mexican police, some wielding shields, scattered migrants and protesters, many of whom rushed toward the US border. US Customs and Border Protection officers repelled them with a volley of canisters emitting large clouds of gas as US and Mexican government helicopters clattered overhead.
If I was unable to experience empathy I would probably have some of your opinions, too. The world must be an odd place for you and your sociopathic ilk.
@Jackaloftheazuresand Just because Illegal immigrants aren’t a drain on our tax coffers doesn’t mean that we need to open our borders or have unrestricted immigration. It just means people need to stop whining about their tax dollars when it comes to this topic.
Oh my, those people sure don't look like women and children. Oh wait, the imbedded reporters said women and children comprised less than 5% of the total.
You 're just as dumb as the other idiot quixsoul .. now take your lame attempt at a strawman argument and move along.. mmkay?
@strongbow:
So why the need to carry them if they are seeking "asylum"?... good god you people are dumb
My direct response to that:
Why would they hate their countries? Should the Italians in the US have stopped displaying Italian flags, just because Mussolini was an asshole? Seeking Asylum, if legitimate, means that you fear for your life, not that you hate your country.
Strawman definition:
A straw man is a common form of argument and is an informal fallacy based on giving the impression of refuting an opponent's argument, while actually refuting an argument that was not presented by that opponent. One who engages in this fallacy is said to be "attacking a straw man."
The typical straw man argument creates the illusion of having completely refuted or defeated an opponent's proposition through the covert replacement of it with a different proposition (i.e., "stand up a straw man") and the subsequent refutation of that false argument ("knock down a straw man") instead of the opponent's proposition.
