Quote from: Kinder Graham on January 09, 2015, 10:22:10 PMBut if they're providing social services, why are millions trying to run from them and why are thousands taking up arms against them?You tell me, you seem to be the expert on solving Mexico's problems. You know what we could do to undercut the cartels which doesn't involve sending people to their deaths? Legalisation of drugs, would be a good starting point.
But if they're providing social services, why are millions trying to run from them and why are thousands taking up arms against them?
Legalizing of marijuana (which has great economic benefits) and decriminalizing over drugs(decrease prison population) would be a great first start

But I'm still waiting for you to actually think this idea of a military involvement through.

This is a discussion about illegals. Bringing up voting is irrelevant because they can't voteIt is relevant because legal immigrants are sympathetic to the troubles of illegal immigrants. When Republicans keep spouting the same rhetoric about illegals, it rings in the ears of legal immigrants. When Republicans continue to to do, it pushes legal immigrants away from voting for them.Why would you vote for someone who is adamantly against people similar to you?
My grandmother, all her friends, my uncle, and aunts are all Hispanic and vote Republican. They share no sentiment with law breakers and never want to be associated with them. Hell, two of the biggest Tea Baggers are Hispanics

Anecdotal: Referring to a single individual
Quote from: Kinder Graham on January 10, 2015, 02:27:53 PMAnecdotal: Referring to a single individualUmm. . . No. Anecdotal means a person story of some kind; something which isn't necessarily representative or statistical. The fact that your family has that attitude, and a couple of Hispanic politicians, isn't evidence for for this attitude forming even a minor part of the Hispanic population's values. If you want to present actual evidence, then I'll be willing to take you seriously.
