Summations Only

That article doesn't really show people promoting open borders does it? Now lets see if you can find anyone of substance promoting open borders.

You obviously have no idea what the sanctuary city movement is all about. Please show a sanctuary city advocate calling for open borders.

No, they do not. You are wrong. Can you meet my challenge? Show a sanctuary city advocate calling for open borders? Show anyone significant calling for open borders? Anyone?

I suppose you're right. It seems logical, doesn't it, that people who oppose immigration rules in one area might turn around and say they should work in another?

No.Got any evidence to the contrary?

Cultures tend to ignore lines on maps. They also recognize that this is a nation of immigrants, and there are far worse crimes than trying to attain the American Dream. Open borders won't work in modern times, but it is worth remembering that we had open borders for the majority of US history.

Culture can be good and culture can be bad. Just read the news about the Middle East sometime.

Sanctuary cities do not oppose immigration law. Here's a short primer.

• Federal agencies are responsible for enforcing Federal laws.
• State agencies are responsible for enforcing State laws.
• Local agencies are responsible for enforcing State and local laws.
• Immigration laws are all Federal laws.

Got any evidence of anybody advocating open borders?

Or Alabama.All of which has nothing to do with our national borders. Got any evidence of anyone advocating open borders?

I replied to that (duplicate) message in Message 23.

You brought up culture, not me.

Read up on European history in the 20th century.

Taq brought up culture.I didn't.

I find it interesting that every call for restricting immigration in US history seems to have come with a very unhealthy dose of racism.Whether it was Germans in the 1840s, Chinese in the 1880s, Italians and Slavs in the 1920s, Mexicans in the 1980s, or Middle Easterners in the 2000s, calls for restricting immigration always came with fears about American culture becoming polluted by foreign traditions, not to mention the hysteria that foreigners will be bringinging diseases and crime.I suppose there are good, solid reasons to be opposed to open borders, but I really don't feel like sticking my hands into all that racist muck to search for them. Not before I get a tetanus shot, anyway.
