“really, who they’re taking is our ice cream men, our nannies and our gardeners”   (They are still fucking illegal, you asinine twit, and I (and a majority of my fellow citizens) want EVERY illegal gone, no matter where they came from or how long they have been here)

So, in comments on the Alligator Alcatraz deportation facility , one of my new (and not terribly welcome) commenters used Ambrocio Lozano as an example of why the facility is a bad thing:

Let us look at the facts…..Firstly, Los Angeles. which explains a lot….normalization of illegals not even trying to hide their status, blatant disregard for immigration laws for many years

Second, this was a man who was, apparently, well liked in the community. He sold ice cream.

But: He was living here, in the United States, illegally, for 20 or more years. 20 years in which he could have applied for citizenship, He chose not to do so. 

In addition, if he was so beloved by the community, he could have been sponsored for citizenship by some of those people that liked him in their community…(assuming anyone is that community is a citizen), which may or may not be,

The fact that a man chose to live here illegally for 20 years, was confident enough to run a business, in a community and never chose to become a citizen, and that the other folks living in that community see no issue with it is also part of the problem.

I am sorry that Mr. Lozano got picked up by ICE. But he had 20 years in which to do the right thing, to become a citizen, to do things the legal way. He chose not to do so. The fact that the people, the government in LA, and in California, chose to normalize such behavior , that they think that somehow, Mr.  Lozano has earned a place here without bothering to become a citizen (or get a green card) is also an issue.

We have laws, and Mr. Lozano  chose to (and was, for some reason, allowed to) flaunt them. Is he a part of the crime problem? Maybe (probably) not. Is his presence here still illegal? Yes. Every illegal should be detained and deported. The fact that ICE is picking the low hanging fruit rather than going after the gangsters and such first is an issue, but at the end of it, had Mr. Lozano cared about our laws, or had any loyalty to the US, he could have become legal in one way or another. He chose not to. The fact that for 20 years everyone knew that he was illegal and didn’t care, and allowed him to stay illegally is another societal issue with California and Liberals….and the fact that they  use his example to decry the (finally!) enforced immigration laws and believe he is a reason to stop the deportations shows their idiocy. Every single illegal needs to be deported, no matter how long they have been here, no matter how many legal family members thy might have in the US….no matter what, Illegal should equal deported.

Why they think that somehow, for some reason, just because he stayed in a community (illegally) for 20 years he somehow, for some reason has earned a place in our country, because he got away with flaunting our laws for 2 decades,….That he gets some special consideration I do not understand.

How many years of squatting illegally does it take to earn a place in this country?  At what point does it happen that your illegal activities get erased?

“Women and most men will not hear of the truth from their enemies, and their friends seldom offer it”

“It is your belief in yourself, that fuels your success: It matters not what others think.”

“Your character is easily measured by how you treat others, especially those you assume are of lower status than yourself”

“What you accept teaches others how to treat you”

I’ve been there, used it during some flight training.

It is truly an airstrip in the middle of an alligator infested swamp….for miles and miles and miles in all direction.

It will make a great place to house illegals, as running off will likely end up in death by starvation, drowning, or being eaten by alligators.

Having said that, to house and feed these illegals, it is expected that it will cost about 450 million dollars (for about 80,000 illegals).

Nope, throw them back over the border and let them appeal after the fact. Fuck’ em. Why should we feed and house them? They’ve gotten enough freebies just living here illegally.

Is Italian Leather made from real Italians?

Where do they get all of them?

Dad jumps overboard to save daughter who fell from 4th level of cruise ship. 

Not all that many men would do that, and even fewer women.

Toxic masculinity and all that, I guess.

After treading water for twenty minutes or so, all were rescued safely and retuned aboard.

I’ll buy the beer should  he and I ever meet.

After all, Tariffs don’t work…..right?

GE “Reshores” washer and dryer production, spending 490 million and  creating 800 jobs.

Interview with Dr. Judith Curry by Hannes Sarv, published originally on freedom-research.org

“Your funding, your salary increase, your tenure case is tied to agreeing with the ‘consensus.’ It’s really about careerism and resources. They all have to dance to that same drum beat if they want to get professional recognition and professional advancement,” says Dr. Judith Curry, professor emeritus at the Georgia Institute of Technology, describing the state of climate science and research in recent years.”

“It’s not science anymore. It has become a pseudo science,” Curry says. “The hardcore physics-based climate dynamics such as what we had in the 1980s—that’s just a small sliver of what we now define as climate science. What the students are getting their PhDs in—they analyze the output of these climate models, looking for some sort of catastrophe that they can identify and write a paper on without ever even critically evaluating these models or how they should be used. It’s just sort of nonsense, but it has received so much funding,” Curry explains.

Dr. Judith Curry is a renowned U.S. climatologist. Until 2014, she chaired the School of Earth and Atmospheric Sciences at the Georgia Institute of Technology. Curry left the university in 2017 due to pressure from the so-called climate consensus and because of restrictions on freedom of speech.

Glad to see that someone is willing to say that the emperor is naked.
