Legal immigrants respect our laws and process for becoming American citizens and generally possess the virtuous character required of a free people. Illegal immigrants first act upon entering America is to thumb their nose at our laws. They do not possess a virtuous character and are inadequate to become citizens.

Boy, boy did you hit the nail on the head! It’s very uncomfortable to look at the reflection after 250 years

I read this Corruption Article titled "The Problem Was Never Government (Part II)"

By Brian Campbell and I quote from Mr. Campell's Key statements that places

the blame squarely where it belongs >

"The Constitution Didn’t Fail. We Did." and "The Founders warned us this would happen."

and "Or Did the Operators Fail?" and "What if the problem was the people?"

I have seen and experienced incidents here in Santa Barbara I thought never existed in America.

Well, it does folks and it is pure EVIL and here are some of them >

"“Then the governor gets mad at the person exposing the fraud? How crazy do you have to be to think that logic?!” "“The governor of California is an ENEMY to the people of California. He’s literally working to support the fraudsters!”

The So-Called Leaders are De-Frauding everyone from Washington to Minnesota

to CaliFraudia and right here in Lil Ole Santa Barbara. Most people are Blind.

I agree with the points made in the article. For me, the clearest example of our failings was seeing the excuses, rationalizations, justifications, and celebrations for the murder committed by Luigi Mangione. Berney

Agree that the virtues a rules to live by in the Bible are key underpinnings of the American foundation. The lack of focus on the nuclear family under that construct has also been responsible for the current state of Us. When is the last time the media has celebrated families and how they anchor us all? I remember shows like Leave it to Beaver, Father Knows Best, The Nelson’s, etc etc…. These provided examples of what great families look like. Of course we all wanted our families to be like those, they never were, but that’s not the point. Today, whenever there is the rare family the focus is warped. So, whenever I see a nuclear family today ai make sure to compliment them on how beautiful it is, and tell them the future is in their hands…..good article..
