Ah, but the mexicano is a jumping being, spurred by his nature to challenge this strange new fence thing on the continent of his ancestors .... second paragraph here explores a sizable part of the motivation - #reply-19058699
The analogy doesn't work overall though .... the mexicano is not stupid enough to blow himself up, and he loves his kids too much to let them do so ... he is not particularly religious, and he is not facing a religiously driven enemy .... he is an invadee, this part is true, but his invaders hardly ever roll tanks over his villages or bomb his children, not for a long time now .... they're not bad folk, the current crop of anglos, most of them anyway .... at least, they're not so bad on the closer neighbours, nearer where they live
'Every country on earth claims the right to control who immigrates to it.'
Every human on earth has a sense of what is right, and what is wrong .... if you, Nadine, think it right to deny to the indigenous of Palestine the lands of their fathers, stolen from them at gunpoint, then you have my deepest sympathy, because you are worse off than anybody |
