    It's called decorum, dude.

    Nobody is going to listen to you if you keep responding in the way you are. It's both rude and counter-productive unless you're aiming to marginalize your viewpoint and the views of others who agree with you.

    Your posts are lacking in respect and courtesy meaning nobody pays attention to what you say. I don't know how else to put it.

    Trust me, I hold no expectation of anyone on here that disagrees with me actually becoming enlightened. When I post on these subjects it's because I feel very strongly about them and I just say things that need to be said, in my opinion. I don't expect anyone on here to change the way they think.

    There is no need, when advancing your opinion, to call someone an ignorant POS. It's unnecessary and childish. Period.

    Young warrior, do not get your hopes down. Such is life in the D&D - 1 conservative battling and defeating an army of 20 angry liberals is the norm. Stay strong. Stay mentally focused. I personally have changed many liberals' opinions in this forum and I am confident that you can do the same. The liberals wilt and crumble when presented with the truth. Their defensive reactions are those of a person who knows they are wrong, but insists on defending their position due to the consistency principle of psychology.

    so you feel very strongly that anyone who comes here illegally is a scumbag? why? because they freaking love this country and the opportunity it provides them enough to risk their life? because they actually enable our economy to run? because they contribute disproportionately to our local tax revenues (since sales tax etc are regressive).

    brilliant. talk about self hating immigrants.

    So you feel that your way is enlightened?

    Is this what Enlightenment looks like?

    I also feel that people talking to you won't become enlightened. Just look at your manner of talking

    Not all things that are illegal make the person who does that a pice of ****.

    There are people who have smoked pot that are not pieces of ****.

    There are people who have gone more than 55mph in 55 mph zone that aren't pieces of ****.

    That kind of blanket statement is ignorant, and doesn't help debate or discussion.

    When people think that anyone with different views is 'insert name Aces7 calls people' They don't understand debate, the ideas of democracy, and display their ignorance.

    Think again. Batman Jones and even I have been temporarily banned, for much less than what you have done in this thread.

    Rock on you crazy dude.

    enunciating on the grand principles of the law is great in the abstract -- in the real world, there are dirt poor families to be fed and toilets to be cleaned - therefore the synergy of the two is what I'm concerned with.

    I have plenty of evidence to back up the fact that America is dependent on illegal immigrant labor - Exhibit 1: the millions and millions of immigrants that are here working. That's why free market conservatives love illegal immigration so much - we get cheap labor and the costs are borne by the workers.

    I'm not sure how much more I need than that - now it's your turn to prove that the market is wrong - if not prove, then at least provide some evidence in support of your conclusion.

    feel free to voice your opinions, but there is no need to call anybody dumb pieces of fecal matter.


    And somebody didn't show up for no basketball game today.

    My remark was sort of tongue in cheek but we are setting ourselves up for a big problem if we try to distinguish the desirable immigrants from the undesirable immigrants on any basis other than the legality of their entry into the United States.

    I'm sorry things are bad in Mexico but no one has the right of guaranteed entry into the United States unless they are a citizen of the United States. We simply cannot take them all in.

    Actually, we can and will, and we will continue to do so as the US population ages and demographic shortages lead to problems in the service sector.

    We will take them all in, and then some. The market has prevailed over dangerous river crossings, deadly treks throught hte desert, etc etc etc ... and it will continue to do so.

    I said what I said to SamFisher because of the manner in which he flat out misquoted me. It was a very important distinction that he very conveniently left out. If someone just came into this thread and didn't read all the way through, but just read his post, they would think that I am anti-immigration, which I certainly am not. I am against illegal immigration in the worst way. Yet we should welcome immigrants that choose to respect our rules & laws, who make an effort to assimilate to this country and not expect this country to assimilate to them. Those who decide to sneak across are scumbags. They have no respect for our nation and our processes and are only seeking what they can get from it.

    If I had it my way we would have our military out of Iraq as soon as feasibly possible and have them stationed along our southern border where they are needed.

    Ha ha ha, blame it on me after you stepped in a pile of crap that you didn't anticipate - that's the risk of making trolling posts. Stop trying to defer the risk. You made your bed when you decided to call millions of human beings who toil to make your life better by doing backbreaking labor, and I quote, directly, "piece of sh-t". So you shouldn't cry , you made your bed, kiddo, time to lie in it.

    What you said is up there for all to see. Good luck with your rehab, chico. Sometimes the man gets you down.

    Hey, Aceshigh7, i've got an idea - since you're unhappy with your treatment, perhaps you could emigrate to another message board in search of a better posting life? :D
