Mercer: A Global 'Right Of Return' To The U.S.? Who Knew?
2018-06-15
[Townhall] No good deed goes unpunished. Jeff Sessions wants to restore to America the "sound principles of asylum" and long-standing tenets of immigration law, abandoned by American leaders over the decades.

That makes the attorney general a Hitler, to use liberal argumentation. Condemned for all eternity.

As the left sees it, if America isn’t going to police the world; it must at least provide shelter to all people from unpoliced parts of the world.

That’s the left’s reason du jour for opposing the restoration of American immigration sovereignty.

And now, the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops (USCCB) is piling on.

By narrowing promiscuously broad asylum criteria‐the system is being gamed, attests Andrew Arthur, a former immigration judge‐Sessions stands accused of flouting the "right to life" of the women of the world.

No matter that America has its own share of abused women "persecuted by their husbands and ignored by their own governments." The last, parenthetic remarks were uttered by immigration lawyers, who mask greed with prattle about values.

This legal club is looking out exclusively for the women of the world, not the women of America. To them, we are the world.

#4  Fine, we can police the world. You definitely won't like it, but we can do it. Oh look, you chanted "Death to America" *FOOOM* OOps, you no longer exist. Who would like us to police them next? Oh? You demand we treat your invading citizens with 'dignity'? *FOOM* Now we'll deport them back to their radioactive waste of a homeland. Or if you prefer, use them to stock the organ banks.

I'm done with America being the world's punching bag. Time to pay the piper or get turned into smoking wasteland. We don't even need nukes. Conventional interdiction strikes on every power plant, water treatment plant, hospital, bridge, major road intersection and dam will ensure that you spent the next 10-30 years attempting to get out of the stone age. And we'll use your navy for target practice.

#3  Using Ricardo's law to make the establishment even richer (at middle class expense) and virtue signal to boot.

#2  I remember years ago when first confronted with the open borders mindset, I thought based on that rationale it was a perfect set up for a lawyer. He would simply launch a class action against the USA, of course, on behalf of all the people who had remained in their native land. Obviously they were intimidated, depressed, and perhaps too psychologically enervated to make the trip and we were denying them benefits.

It would be better than a government job for a socialist, lifelong gravy train of circular word games in court with the added ability to pass the hat to fellow travelers. Seems like my once ironic idea is actually coming around.
