AMERICAN BORDERS
I'm not sure how well America 'can control it's border.
Especially in an age of planes, trains, and automobiles.
But then again, I'm not familiar with other countries circumstances, methods, and rates of success.
. . .
TRUMPS METHODS
Do Trumps public methods and actions, discourage attempted illegal immigration?
I don't know.
I've heard people argue in the past of crime, that people are more afraid of chances of being caught, than the punishment.
. . . But then, won't people figure they are more likely to get caught, if ICE and Trump methods are constantly being blared?
One questions the effectiveness of hanging petty thieves in England,
But I'd imagine the events being publicized increased in people's 'minds, the idea of being caught.
. . . Might be Trump is getting lucky with the amount of attention everyone is giving his methods,
Not that people 'shouldn't give his methods scrutiny, there is a lot disagreeable with them.
. . But I'd imagine ICE and Trump being so in sight, might increase the odds of being caught in the minds of illegal immigrants.
. . .
BINARY CHOICES
Reminds me of the drug wars,
Are you against drugs?
Yes,
So you want us to throw people in prison for petty drug offenses?
No,
So you want us to legalize drugs?
No.
Well, pick a choice, you have two.
. . .
Also remember Abortion debates and laws recently?
Again binary frustration,
Guns, also often binary frustration.
I suppose it might be a fear of slippery slope,
Sure people 'say there's no slippery slope, but what a load of bull.
DEMOGRAPHIC CHANGES
Personally I think America is going to change vastly from immigration and demographic changes.
Just goes to show the error of groups with little to no identity in my mind.
Sure America is great for the individual, (For a time), but I don't think individuals have a lasting power.
PULLING FAMILIES AWAY
We could keep families together.
INHUMANE
Eh, I'm not sure it's inhumane to deport people.
The inhumane part maybe is in WW2 deporting them back to Nazi Germany,
I vaguely recall claims that modern America is departing people to countries other than country of origin, or to foreign country prisons, or to third world countries, or to situations where others are going to kill them gangs or government.
SOLUTIONS IN MY VIEW
Technology, Xenophobia, Tribalism, Isolationism, Community.
People who care about their blood and culture, should found new dormitory cities and counties, where residents and travel is closely tracked.
I don't think such is applicable to 'current America, maybe we shouldn't want it either,
But if one cares about one's blood and culture, one is going to need to create new nations within America I think.
