Who do you think elected those government officials? Where do you think those government officials come from?
When those illegal aliens come here, who do you think they are going to vote for? Hint: same ruinous socialist policies they chose and run from.
Thank you. Thatâ(TM)s what actually happens, to most of them.
In addition to those people you can add:
* human traffickers
* child abusers
* gang members
* murderers
* rapists
* narcotraficantes
It makes ZERO sense to let anyone in without vetting.
Your ad hominem is useless against me.
Iâ(TM)m Mexican. Iâ(TM)m from Chiapas, the poorest state in Mexico, next to Guatemala. Which by the way is also affected by illegal immigration.
Are you claiming to be from Central America? Letâ(TM)s debate then, honestly, for all Americans to see your deception.
Bring it on.
Not only the travel thousands of miles. They cross two or three countries which are fine enough to protect them, as they have in the past. They also pay thousands of dollars to a smuggler. And all that to break the law in the country of their choosing.
Make no mistake. These are not desperate people. They are people taking advantage of YOUR weakness.
Again you are assuming the intentions of these people. Your reply is not a reply to my comment only. You want to insert it into the wider topic.
There are laws around political asylum and refuge. The US is still receiving them. Illegal aliens are not asylum seekers or refugees.
And let’s not forget about “who will pick my fruit?” or “who will clean my toilet?” or “but things will get more expensive if we follow the law when hiring!” totally not racist and valid reasons for illegal immigration.
There are so many things wrong with your post:
* you assume they have nowhere to go inside their own country
* also assume there’s nowhere to go in the next two or three countries the go through
* you assume all illegal aliens are people fleeing from gang violence when actually those illegal aliens include gang members!
* the law doesn’t get suspended just because you feel bad
* the US or any other country has no capacity to receive anyone that feels threatened. That’s why there are rules around asylum and refuge.
If you don’t see something it doesn’t mean it doesn’t exist. It also doesn’t mean others are conspiracy theorists.
Illegal immigration is wrong in so many ways. It is indefensible. Make no mistake: illegal aliens are no decent people. Decent people do not sneak into other countries, avoiding authorities.
Illegal aliens are not asylum seekers or refugees. Do not conflate them.
Of course lots of them are showing up hoping either they can avoid authorities or can falsely claim they seek asylum and then set free in the country.
I don’t think you know what seeking asylum is about. Hint: it is not about escaping gang related violence in your country.
Literally no one is saying asking asylum is illegal. The system is being overwhelmed on purpose by actors with obscure motivations.
Java was successful not because of its object system but because it was C-like and free of charge at a time when Smalltalk was very expensive. C++ is a mess, I doubt its SIMULA inspired object system had anything to do with its success. Python was only the sane alternative to Perl.
Ruby and Objective-C are the closest to Smalltalk and are very successful because of that.
I don't understand how you can extrapolate that to say that Smalltalk's object system failed. Even more so when the OP's idea of ruling the world is not limited to how successful a language is due to its object system, but how influential it has been the last 30+ years.
We are still catching up with the past.
P. S. By the way, Java was so slow at the beginning that Sun Microsystems acquired Strongtalk (a statically typed Smalltalk) and the result of that was the HotSpot VM.
You missed Ruby, which resemblances Smalltalk in many ways.
The original poster didn't say the object systems are similar, but that Smalltalk's object system is the basis of the one used in those languages. Java and Python did a poor job of course.
A trip to Wikipedia before posting is all you need to stop embarrassing yourself.
Why wait? Take matters with your own hands and make Smalltalk great again.
