It's hard to be a ACLU hating, philosophically Libertarian, socially liberal, fiscally conservative, scientifically grounded, agnostic, porn admiring gun owner who believes in self determination.

Wish our governor Bill Lee had the stones to tell the Feds to shove it like Iowa's governor did.

The unhidden prejudice that has shown up on the forum regularly recently is offputting. I’m not a proponent of CRT, nor am I less than a realist with strong opinions. But...someone has to point out for the lefties that watch the forum that most of us are not prejudiced against people due to their racial characteristics, national origin, or ethnicity.
I’m just here to comment on the sadness of Tennessee Temple’s being shut down. They seemed to stay “reasonable” while other fundamentalists stopped being fundamentalists and became Puritanical separatists who liked to have sex with kids. (Before McC jumps in, I am aware that the original Puritans were by definition not separatists within the Church of England. The adjectival connotation has changed from 400 years ago.)

That's what has federal detention facilities overflowing and Biden distributing the overflow across America. It's not fake news.

It’s not racist to be leery of people who definitely come from a far different standard of life and social structure.
The temptation is there to abuse social services while at the same time adding additional burden to the educational and employment strata.
I’d love to sit here and tell you the future will be brown, latin, gay, and feminist but that would come at a huge cost.
Historically nations that go from white rule to non-white rule cease to prosper.
Now before you start typing angrily, know this: I am a person of color too. I would love the great kumbaya drum circle of civic nationalism but it’s a cruel world we live in. Our, for lack of a better term, State Rivals like Iran, PRC and Russian Federation don’t fret over diversity and quotas. They just handle their business and sometimes it affects/involves us. I promise you that neither Xi nor Putin lie awake and not worrying if anal sex needs to be legal or if the ethnic/religious minorities are getting their “fair share”
I would say further that “diversity” is code for replacement. We need graduated immigration where the English speaking, educated, and pro American people get preference. We desperately need to reduce unchecked immigration from India if we are to maintain infrastructure and avoid flooding tech and mercantilism. We also need more actual Europeans. Like we used to have coming in. It’s getting bad over there and some fresh blood may help.
South America is a weird place because they should be far more prosperous than they are but the drugs, the cartels, and the Iberian influence of corruption make it far more backward than necessary. It takes generations to undo. There’s too much socialism and communism.
Chile came so close to getting it right. If you are going to claim Conservatism then you need to accept that your beliefs are center-right and at some level authoritarian. One of the tenets is to conserve.
Personal opinions aside, it’s mostly blacks and immigrants who vote Democrat for the free shit. If they weren’t voting for the free shit, nobody would have a problem with it. But while we may realize that there are no free lunches and all resources are finite; they do not. They likewise don’t care. They can always go back. If this nation is your birthright then you have nowhere else to go. These other countries are not taking you.
You aren’t going to be having guns all day in New Zealand. You simply aren’t going to be having Christian churches and Bacon BBQ in Israel. And good luck in Asia, hope you studied.
It’s oil and water. What brings certain demographics up will also conversely bring other demographics down.
I don’t believe in social equity. I don’t believe I owe anybody or that anybody owes me. Every race has a sob story.
I believe we need to take care of our own people first and that we should be able to give our children as good as or better life like some of us had.
Otherwise it’s not sustainable. It’s quick votes for Democrats but there are unintended consequences afoot
Okay, I'll play.
What are they? Are they physicians, accountants, scientists, or otherwise offering something of value to our society? Will they receive government "assistance" (i.e. freebies)? Do they speak our language, even basic English, and will they assimilate? Which way do you think, if given the chance at some point in the future, that they will vote?
Now for the "sensitive" part......look at the pics. For the most part they are Mestizos. Do you know what the definition of a Mestizo is? It's not a slur, it's an ethnic group (and caste) in Latin America. It is hardly like calling them Mestizos is like calling a black person the forbidden word. Not even close.
Yes, I am prejudiced against ANYONE who isn't here legally (to include their lovely children), and they certainly aren't here legally now are they?
In SW Florida where my mom, brother, and sister live there are a lot of Ukrainian/Russian immigrants. They pretty much don't assimilate, they continue to speak their language, many on welfare, and quite a few are shady as hell (think Eastern European mob activities). Guess what? They're WHITE! That's right, riff-raff imported from an area that happens to be white. Don't particularly care for them either.
You can come off the cross now. I'm an equal-opportunity hater. If you're not supposed to be here I don't want you here.....or your kids either. Those coming across the border right now (save for the occasional Yemeni person on the terrorist watch list) are indeed Mestizos, and probably 99% are broke-dick future welfare recipients. In bleeding heart circles that's known as "pooooor". Sorry, we have more than enough homegrown freeloaders without importing more. Fix your own damn country, don't pollute mine. And yes, invading my country illegally and offering nothing but a mouth suckling for a teat makes you vermin, regardless of "skin color" or "ethnicity". No apologies.
There, happy now? Hopefully you can take off your White Knight armor now, unmount your dashing white charger, and relax. Your superior morality is duly noted.
Also, I really don't give a damn what some "lefties that watch the forum" think of me or us. Do you really think they have a high opinion of M4C anyway?
