I am starting to get the impression that one side's natural instinct is to justify anything contrary to tradition, common thinking, etc. and that their defense of that instinct is to assert that being "deep thinkers," "searchers," and "thoughtful" is what distinguishes them from the other side. This, even though they always come to the unwavering same conclusion; namely, that any upset over any issue where they part out from the others can be traced to the "other side's" racism, general prejudice, black-hearted selfishness, and other moral failings.
Ill be damned if I can understand the benefit to the society (our government is supposed to protect) by flooding it with unknown immigrants of uncertain origin, without health checks, criminal background checks, or known political positions (to name a few) - whether they eat cats or not. How does our current immigration situation help America's working poor, budgetary issues, control of potential epidemics, housing crisis, and other things typically blamed on corporate greed but clearly exacerbated by mass influx ?
