Are they so self-absorbed that they can't see that that the world needs them to step forward and advocate on behalf of illegal immigrants in the USA?

What with China sitting on top of them in Imperial Occupation style...just my two cents.


In the 50+ years that China has brutally occupied Tibet, the US has done next to nothing by way of supporting Tibet's independence. Why are you harping on Tibet?

5. Has frequent use of keyboards impaired the neatness of your handwriting?
Edited on Fri May-05-06 12:02 PM by Boojatta
Have you ever suspected that the invention of paper was a Chinese conspiracy to shame people who have imperfect handwriting? Is that suspicion what drives your aversion to all things Chinese?

Shouldn't you be rejoicing that next to nothing is still something? Why do you hate America?

6. I don't have an aversion to all things Chinese
but I do have an aversion to any government that sees fit to illegally occupy a sovereign nation. That goes for China or the US or anybody else.

4. is that a Question or a statement, ..there is a genocide going on there or
didn't you know.... Tibet is under the control of the Chinese, 1.25 Million Tibetans have been murdered by the Chinese Government.. there is not any free speech there.

if you are referring to the Dalai Lama in Dharamsalla India, he stays out of political dog fights. If you know anything about the Dalai Lama you know his stand on the suffering any being. so apparently you dont know anything about him.

the effective statement you made is 'Illegal'.. what part of the law dont you understand.

you need to be working on changing the law, if you dont like it.. not starting piss fights, to justify your stand. if you want open boarders, the door has to swing both ways.. and all the maps need to have the names of the countries removed..

this subject is a bit more complex than you seem to understand. it has a lot to do with the corrupt and immoral government of Mexico exporting their poverty here to be educated and cared for, to raise the standard of living for the 'Have It Alls' in Mexico.. who have a standard of living second only to France.. on the backs of the peasants, the poorest of the Poor. since Fox is advertising on TV and radio there to the underclasses to go illegally to the USA and get jobs and send money home, this in a Foreign Invasion. about 10% of the population of mexico has migrated to the USA... the $15,000,000,000 they send back is the largest growth industry in Mexico... it is all about the money as usual..
