But we don't want them here, it is lefties and "sanctuary cities" and those encouraging them to come here in droves that want them here.
We say "NO" repeatedly and are ignored. We do not want or need illegal aliens in this country.
You want 'em so bad, you all deal with them.

I would be willing to give a little extra out of my paycheck to pay for "some" refugees, you see I am reasonable I am not calling for 100 million plus refugees to be allowed in.

Triggered, sjw, racist, virtue signaling. Seems you have covered the talking points very well oh wait you left out libtard.
I try to talk reasonably with you and this is what I get in return. This isn't even the mudpit, where is the civility?
then you have another member threatening to put me on the ignore list because he thinks I'm racist, go ahead call everyone a racist who doesn't agree with you on the ignore list just fill your life up with people who parrot your opinion.
Haven't we been told repeatedly for 3+ years now that the reason is racism and bigotry against these poor seekers of a better life?

While it is a funny move on trump's part.
But this is still not good. What's keeping the illegals from spreading?
Even if it's to stick it to the liberals, this will ruin the moral fabric of the country.
Many central Americans are known to over populate and have more children then they could handle or that society could handle.
And isn't that what the far left is always saying they will support for these poor undocumented people yearning for a better life? Well, sanctuary cities do offer all kinds of free support for people in that situation. They also openly welcome them and protect them.
Wouldn't it be cruel to NOT send them there, and instead send them to another city that might ignore or worse shun them in their society?
I expect an HONEST answer.

Democrats are playing games trying to force Trump to release them into America. So basically, if they have to be released, Trump is saying he will only do so in Sanctuary areas so as to not subject the rest of America to them.

Since I've had a family member slaughtered by an illegal in a sanctuary city, I do agree that the sanctuary city crowd has blood on their hands.

From your source:
The White House told U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement that the plan was intended to alleviate a shortage of jail space but also served to send a message to Democrats. The attempt at political retribution raised alarm within ICE, with a top official responding that it was rife with budgetary and liability concerns, and noting that “there are PR risks as well.”
After the White House pressed again in February, ICE’s legal department rejected the idea as inappropriate and rebuffed the administration.
A White House official and a spokesman for the DHS sent nearly identical statements to The Post on Thursday, indicating that the proposal is no longer under consideration.
What people need to understand about "Sanctuary Cities" is that the Federal government has every right to operate in them. What they don't have the right to do, and this has been held up in courts, is conscribe local facilities, resources and employees to do the Federal government's job for them. It's a matter of jurisdiction, and of course money. The Federal government can't steal funds from cities that are not allocated or reimbursed.
And, this whole idea of conscribing local facilities, resources and employees came from the Obama Administration and was shot down in the courts. The Trump Administration knows this and Trump is just throwing tantrums and trying enact vengeance on these cities and their populations.

by being okay with a reasonable amount of refugees spread out through the entire country that makes me say that I want to shove illegals down your throat? And because I won't take a refugee into my house that makes me a racist? there are all kinds of people that my tax money go to that I wouldn't want living in my house either does that make me a racist against them as well you guys are nuts!!!
I work I have a 40-hour job I pay taxes I have a right to my opinion you have clearly stated yours I feel my opinion is more reasonable but then again don't we all. agree to disagree I respect your opinion as an American and if the majority of Americans feel the same way you do then I have to go along with the majority decision.
