What you see on Fox News is not what they believe.

Aside from that, the reason for most illegal immigrants to go to the US is wealth, not freedom. Wealth indeed is a good reason for many to change sides, but for many more lack of it is a cause for resentment - even those who might seek it out if they were able to.

And that is about as much time as I'm willing to waste on someone as uneducated as yourself.


Yet everyone is clamoring to get here. Don't bother arguing with that. It's fact.



THIS is what bothers me:

IF you are right, and I believe that you are actually. SURPRISE. I believe that's what they feel. It's all religiously spawned hatred now isnt it?

What they are doing is making a religious judgment and starting (pretty blatantly) a war.



So essentially they are bombing us because we dont respect their religions. Why don't we respect their religions? Because they dont respect ours. Why dont they...

etc


Etc, etc; and on and on.
