I haven't heralded any such thing but thanks for the encouragement. I gave up on this thread along time ago when it became all about the lying old perv and his sick attention seeking activities.
A few years ago there were some pretty good topical discussions going on here. I do see you as someone with the potential to make topical discussions interesting, but not here.
You did like most who've tried and failed. As soon as you showed up (this time) you fell right into the groove, the lying old perv has created for left wingers who show up. To bad. Most people, including the lying old perv, are here just to enjoy watching him get kicked for his clownish and disgusting conduct.
I don't think it is possible to carry on a normal discussion here anymore but if you want to give it a shot there are dozens of interesting and controversial topics we could explore, perhaps even on another thread. I'm bored with the typical dead end lw/rw standards but hey, there is lots more out there like...
Globalization and its effects on immigrants: Most immigration is gender based and vocation based, where females immigrate in domestic service roles and men immigrate to perform physical labor. Often times families and children are left behind, with plans to reunite in a new location or to send money home and return with a pile of bread someday. But plans to go out in the world alone, to someday return with a fortune, rarely work out. People don't always accomplish what they hope to and being away from home and family for a period of time changes people.
Immigrants often fall victim to criminal scoundrels. The village or small town of family and friends is usually no protection once you head down the road of an immigrant. Currently human trafficking and sex slavery is a 33billion dollar a year industry and the fastest growing Global crime on the planet. Those left behind are suffering in more extreme poverty not less, where 25,000 children die quietly, on a DAILY basis from unconscionable neglect. There are more orphaned children in the World than the entire population of children in the USA. 70% of orphaned children in Russia who age out, enter a life of crime or prostitution. The world has shrunk so that people are less likely to simply suffer quietly in years to come. Media and mobility have given people a voice and the ability to act out when their conditions become insufferable. There are now 100million extra young men, a world first. Not to mention the high rate of single men who are living single do to irreconcilable divorce. We know what happens when a few young men with no domestic agenda start hanging around, things always get way more aggressive. Well, there is more but you get the idea.
Back to the main point, immigrants are vulnerable... even under the best of conditions. When they are legal immigrants they are afforded the full support of community, opportunity for dignified employment, protections of law and social order. Even when they are illegal the law promises to treat them humanely and with genuine purpose to set things right, to reconcile and resolve individuals with one another and with society at large. Setting all other social issues aside just for the moment, a legal system of law and order is with out question, the best and only reasonable path to follow when faced with such daunting challenges. Illegal immigration is a crime and everyone on the planet is being effected by it.
I understand the thinking of a single immigrant person who is only thinking of where the next loaf of bread might come from but the people of the United States and the rest of the World must get united in solving the illegal immigration problem if things are to ever get better for people in general. |
