      Number one, Barron set me up with some emoji cyber. But I don't think it's your cyber. To be perfectly honest with you, I don't really know. Number two, thank you for remembering that Scotland is its own country. With its own flag. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 Not just part of the EU! Very smart of you to remember that. Unless you're Scottish!

    On the day of this HORRIBLE attack on my great city, with lots of things happening in and to my presidency -- when I'm up against the single greatest witch hunt of a politician in American history -- someone did something nice for me. And bought me a subscription to SoylentNews. I don't know who did that, @VP Pence was it you? @PutinRF_Eng was it you? Please tell me it wasn't you. Maybe my very patriotic @LeeGreenwood83 of Manhattan? Whoever it was, I love the fabulous gold star by my name! I begin to understand how that Gold Star family felt. When I sent them a check for $25,000. Amazing, amazing. I will wear that gold star with great pride. But also very humbly. I think I'm much more humble than anyone would understand. Than anyone can ever understand. #MAGA 🇺🇸

    Now is not the time to talk about immigration control. [washingtonpost.com]

    I mean, you wouldn't want to come across as a massive lying hypocrite or anything would you?

      My AI says:
      When a local does it, you don't discuss immigration control.
      When a foreigner does it, you discuss immigration control.
      Immigrants are people you host in your house. People in your house don't get to make the rules ever. If they do they are not immigrants, they are soldiers. Lacking a uniform they are outside the Geneva convention. Using peaceful immigrants to blend in makes all immigrants threat.
      Ask Sitting Bull if you still have doubts.

          Some people go bad.

          Culture or DNA plays a role. In about 70 years, Japan has a single terrorist attack. (cult nerve gassing a subway)

          Our culture or DNA is worse. Because of this, it would be stupid for Japan to allow mass immigration from the USA.

          Likewise, it would be stupid for us to allow immigration from places that are worse than us. Right now, we're similar to other developed nations. If you ignore the democrat-run cities that are overrun with 3rd-world immigrants, we're very close to being the best. Rural USA isn't Japan, but it's not too far off.

          We need to make do with the culture and DNA we have. It isn't perfect. The easy improvement is to focus on stress caused by job-killing regulations and stress caused by the laws (welfare requirements, custody laws, etc.) that tear apart our families. A nation of intact families with employed fathers and stay-at-home mothers would be far less stressful.

          Adding violent 3rd-world idiots sure doesn't help us. Adding good people might, but those are hard to find.

          I should have been more explicit sorry. Gun control CLASHES with the constitution. Immigration control IMPLEMENTS the definition of a sovereign state. This is why when gun does it you don't talk about gun control laws, you round up as many people as possible and discuss altering the constitution, and the new balance the revised constitution strikes between people and the government. All other things politicians like to do with their byzantine regulations are treason. Surely mr. trump will or is committing treason too, but that does not justify anything.

          Contrary to blatant propaganda, immigration control does not clash with human rights. Human rights are preserved by refugee camps, especially when they cost less, are safer, and prevent to weaponize migrants for political/strategic reasons like it happened already 60 times in recent history. Human rights are not preserved by the market for documents, the human trafficking mafia and the import of hideous practices that have only a historical/cultural justification in other sovereign states.

          And BTW I am from a land of migrants, so this has nothing to do with racism either. This has something to do with proper firewalling and modularization, against an intentional spaghetti coded world order, if you want.

              Trump is opportunist, Republicans more so. But double standards is not hypocrisy when the two situations are different for the reasons I outlined, IMHO.

          The shooting in Las Vegas is unusual. One of the many conspiracy theories is almost certainly correct, but we don't know which one. All we know for certain is that the info provided has been minimal, inconsistent, and illogical. Somebody is doing a cover-up.

          The money laundering is obvious. Some is gambling. Some is probably sweet real estate deals. There are weird connections to the Philippines, including stuff related to kids (think "pedophilia") and stuff related to Muslims (think "ISIS"). Oddly, the Philippines is also the origin of a spy that did housekeeping for Hillary and got improper access to the president's daily brief. There is the possibility of gun running, something like the one that involved Eric Holder supplying guns to the Mexican gangs.

          Some of that is probably coincidence. Almost certainly, some is not. In any case, the unusual secrecy makes it obvious that things are not simple.

          The terrorist had guns, two horrible guns. A paintball gun and a pellet gun. Maybe, probably, if he had better guns, he would have used them instead of attacking with a truck. And done a much better attack. Better for everyone. And if there were some Second Amendment people around, they could protect themselves. I could stand in the middle of Fifth Avenue and shoot somebody and nobody would shoot back. Unless the NYPD showed up. With gun control we take a tremendous monetary hit on protecting people. Officer Nash came to protect those people. Too late for some, I'm sad to say. And he took a tremendous hit to his hearing. I'm telling you, Congress needs to pass the Sportsmen Heritage and Recreational Enhancement Act. Our Second Amendment folks are paying a big tax on their suppressors, very expensive. Unfair!

            Military personnel automatically get 10% disability for hearing loss just for having fired guns. Perhaps the same benefit should be awarded to cops who manage to save Whites from the savage and bloodthirsty rampages of angry minorities.
