What do you democrats think of the southern border.

First thing is a simple history lesson of the United States: The United States was founded by people who stole the land and migrated into land owned by the native Americans.

Now: The border has always been an issue and will always be an issue. There is no “silver bullet” to fix it. The main driving issue of it is what is happening in Central American and South American countries. The social/political issues there are what drives the migration of people to the southern border. There is nothing wrong with them coming to the United States. They just want to be somewhere SAFE and also want to have their chance at the American dream. And that dream has changed over the decades and means something different for each person.

I find it funny how the right-wing GOP Christians never follow the teachings of god and look after the sick, hungry, homeless, etc like the Bible says too but instead they (right-wing/GOO) do the non Christian thing and attack those in need, deride them, harass them, kick them while down, do not help or look to care for them like the Bible says to.

@WastedTime time to grow up sparky
@Patriot96 I just have a history degree and have traveled almost all of central/south/North America. Not ignorant to the realities of the situation. Also do not follow any mainstream media of the United States. And have friends in the countries that people are coming to the United States from. The United States is a country of immigrants founded by immigrants.

@nudistsueaz There should be a law requiring those supporting open borders to live in houses with widely breached walls.

@WastedTime There is a more accurate history that doesn't play the victim game.

The Americas of North south and central were sparsely occupied by a scattered assortment of small and larger tribes. Some of which were nomadic hunters. Some were warlike combatants regularly skirmishing with one another. Some were more inclined to conduct raids on less warlike and agricultural ones. When the original settlers arrived they were welcomed by some, feared by others, and yet others decided to engage in the same kinds of raids on peaceful settlers as they did to their peaceful indigenous counterparts.

The northern aboriginal tribal archipelago of north America was the outland frontier. Settled by northern Europeans in the early stages with mutual sharing of ethnic, agricultural tips, and the instruction of technological wonders brought here by the Europeans most of the land was being surveyed and purchased by those who could. It wasn't the greatest of pluralities and integrated enmeshments. Many of settlers were uneducated farmers and former serfs of European lands just as the indigenous occupants mere servants to tribal leaders. But they worked it out peacefully if possible. In arm's where not possible. Many on both sides paid dearly in the blood of their kin to bring a plan for progress to north America. Later even more Europeans arrived that had little say in how things went. Most however are not interested in blood lust. Many Europeans married into the indigenous families. While many were treated badly, those that suffered with them to this day help negotiate for more justice and cooperation with those here that have this responsibility.

While the South and Central portions are Spain's history. As I hear it that it had deep and long lost super sized societies, more diverse flora, unearthed gold and silver, and territorially consolidated quasi type governed tribal organizations. I do not doubt there is a completely different history in those areas but I'm not well enough informed to reminisce about conquistadors or the remnants of Mayans and Aztecs.

No badly informed self anointed intellectual communist lessons ought be trusted. We already have seen their stories fall apart. Several brown and black skinned great grandchildren of former plantation slave owners DNA results are dismantling now, another false history they want us to waste our time with.

How bout dem apples? Amazin heh?
