Yep. Typical misleading tactic, deliberately match a good picture on one side of the argument against a bad picture of the other side.

reminds me of that one onion article where the lady thought brazil or something was the best place ever because she had been to the tourist part

Exactly. :)

You got my point. I simply use what CNN and other fake media use all the time and reversed it.

They put these sad poverish pictures of Mexico, Honduras, etc...and then put up clean wealth parts of USA to paint a false narrative.

America is just like any other country, we have our rich and we have our poor. 44 million Americans live in poverty. We should take care of our own first and not buy into the fake media narrative.

But you're a foreigner also. You are not one of us.
Why don't you go home and take care of your own instead of pretending to conform to those who still reject you?

7500 invaders with no money, no skills. What part of that do libs see as a good thing?

Libs? Hiring them to work on farms, construction, plumbing, electrical, gardening, cooking, other restaurant work, stock, cleaning, etc- basically all the labor so that you can sit in a cubicle posting on social media all day instead of working? Even our cowboys are now cabelleros again...

In a cubicle all day. Wow, I assure you there are plenty of people on this site who do construction, electrical, gardening, cooking, restaurant work, ect. (I, for example, do restaurant work) if those jobs are "magically done by someone else", I would not get an easier life as you seem to imply. I would have no way to earn money for rent or groceries. So me (and my children) would be homeless and starving. But hey, as long as we help those Hondurans get a job earning even less than I currently do, it will all be worth it.

Of course, all the fine folks on this site posting a gazillion important identical world changing comments a day are on shift with one of those jobs.
Round here you get fired for that. Except waitresses, of course, who have plenty of sitting time while the Manuels do the manual labor.

As long as we enforce the law and make it illegal to hire illegals illegally because it is illegal to hire them because they are, yes, called illegal for a reason, there won't be a problem. We wont need Mexico to pay for a wall.
And that goes for legals too. Trucking Somalis from New Hampshire to Nevada to work meat packing plants at $15p/hr because Americans - in the suicide capital of the US - won't.

Try competing against them to get a job here. Not easy, even when you are willing to work for the same pay and hours. They think we won't work as hard, will keep asking for raises, and will quit in a month or two.

If they had skills, they would be applying for HB1 visas, not illegally marching across the border
