We need solutions, not reason why we cant do things.
I view islam as a genocidal death cult, and a threat to our western culture. It's not about color at all. If you see something is gonna be bad, you have to do something about it. Sooner or later there will be an all out genocide in this country if we don't ship them out now, I don't really care about their perceived rights.

It's not about Somalis for that county. They could be from anywhere. The northern counties of Minnesota are hit hard each winter with jobs fading until spring, big uptick in unemployment, and a burgeoning welfare as the people up here who never made the kind of money the folks south of here have and are aging and can't move out. Of course they have the drug and unwed mothers issues etc to deal with.
No one said anyone of any race or religion wasn't allowed to come there to live, work, and contribute, and have a go at it. The folks there do not want the matching funds and other dangling carrot goodies that they then have to match or maintain if they sign on to take refugees.
The most alarming thing of all this is the trampling of rights of the people in that county. They are doing nothing illegal. They were given the opportunity to vote and choose as have all the counties/cities in America. They voted and that vote should be honored. That's freedom. The news today here is going on and on about how lawmakers in St. Paul are going to withhold funds, grants, and other programs to these northern folks for exercising their right to make a choice, the choice those those lawmakers from other areas don't like. What, this is now Nazi Germany 2? If the state or Feds do that I hope that county sues them to death. The folks made a choice, let it stand!
Osky Amen, hold strong, and let it stand. If poor counties have to rely too much on Government to survive, let the poor and the weaklings leave if we cant support them. Welfare needs to be curtailed to begin with.

Ending birthright citizenship? Where WE be without it?
Besides, ending it would take a Constitutional amendment.
Jim Only 35 of the 195 countries in existence give citizenship for being born there. The other 34 countries. that give citizenship for birth, are countries that I see no good reason to emulate. When America was founded we needed people. At the time, the only people who could get here on their own were highly motivated, driven individuals, who came to work hard to make better lives for themselves and their families. Even the indentured servants that had their way paid, were highly motivated. Black slaves and some white prisoners, who were mainly settled in Georgia, were admittedly less motivated to come here to work hard for better lives for themselves and families. For the most part we received very hard working immigrants. Now, we only need the best quality immigrants. The immigrants that steal across our borders to give birth to an anchor baby, are poor, uneducated people who are only going to become a public charge. Our Constitution should not be changed lightly. We have had to change our Constitution for good reasons before. Stopping criminals and others from using anchor babies to circumvent our immigration system's laws is a great reason to change the Constitution. Keith

Changing the constitution is one thing. It's quite another to get those blacked robed idiots to change it by "interpretation".
