Maybe you could just send them one week's net pay. No? Too much?

Well, perhaps three days net income, after taxes of course... Three days is too much? Hmmm.

One and a half Days income ?  No?

Oh well, poor bastards... imagine all those hungry mouths to feed... perhaps send them a jar of Skippy Smooth... no the big jar, just the regular size, or a jar of Nuttella perhaps, everyone likes Skippy and Nuttella, right?

Oh, true, maybe they have allergies... all those years of eating scraps from the dumpster and drinking muddy, dirty, water... and I guess they could have first world allergies, so sending groceries is a no-no, eh?

Poor bastards... Oh well, next crisis?

No.  I cannot support them by myself.  If I was wealthy, I would certainly sponsor a family and give money to programs that provide job training and other services for refugees.  However, I am a taxpayer, and have paid many thousands of dollars in taxes over the years.  I have a right to express my opinion on how this money should be spent.

Further, you are putting words in my mouth.  It is not appreciated.  I did not say as a liberal it is MY moral obligation.  I said it is OUR moral obligation.  When WE, as a country, create a situation that creates refugees, WE have a moral obligation to those refugees.

And fuck you.  You do not have the right to dictate the form of my answers, nor do I have the right to dictate the form of yours.

And what is a SJW?

And what is a SJW?

I had to look up, after assuming, given the context, it isn't Single Jewish Woman.

It's Social Justice Warrior, a term almost exclusively used in a derisive fashion by the Right. Which, ironically, seems to me a very good thing to be. I mean, fighting for social justice is hardly a BAD thing!

if you want to be one of them then you're too far gone and beyond saving. They are wretched people.

Too far gone from what?

Beyond saving from what?

The so called ban on Muslims

This video contains so many falsehoods and distortions it is impossible to respond to them all.  Please stick to print media so that a proper rebuttal can be made.

So why is this an anti-Muslim ban?  Because during his campaign Trump specifically said he would ban Muslim immigrants from entering the country. Remember? He only modified this position when many denounced this position as "un-American." 

So why aren't all Muslim nations on the list?  Because the other Muslim nations do not currently have lots of refugees seeking asylum in the US.  Trump is seeking to ban Muslim immigration without seeming to do so.

Sorry.

 Hmmm? Why are you having trouble deciphering a video?  Since when is a  ban that eliminates all nationalities from traveling to and from these countries so difficult to understand? Could it be because the left simple doesn't want to interpret it as such?

Since when is a video (easily interpreted) not accepted as verification? Or, is only leftest video fallacies accepted as being the truth?

[Lois]

Yes, I am sorry too.  The video voices an opinion, and is not verification.

[Sensualtravler]

Yes, I am sorry too.  The video voices an opinion, and is not verification.

Yet, when I voice an opinion,with a URL that seemingly backs it up, it's also  ridiculed and stated it's 'only' my opinion.

 It seems only the left has the ability to make educated and unerring opinions here. Is that about the jest of it?

Really? Please point to where this happened, with a quote and a link.

[MissBarbara]

Truer words were never spoken...

[Katiebee]

The word is gist.

Unless we find that this is a mute point, in which case it is never voiced.

[Northwest]

Eww!

Thigh high boots notwithstanding, I'ma tan your fanny for that one Katiebee!

[Katiebee]

That is a moot action Northwest.

Et tu, Lois?

Katiebee, with your frequently awkward syntax, punctuation problems and spelling errors, Grammar Nazi is  not a strong suit for you to play. But I'm sure ChirpingGirl is tickled pink with this little diversion. I notice she's snuck out of the room.
