As you may know, I’m from Texas. I feel very strongly against our borders being flooded. Period. Many voice an opinion that this is not the “Christian” thing to believe. There’s a huge disconnect in the belief that Christians shouldn’t feel this way. I love God & serve Him daily. I choose as an act of my will to extend mercy, grace & unconditional love. My bible has story after story of how God protected his people & commanded His leaders to wipe out entire nations to do so. I’m not saying He should wipe out Mexico, Salvador, etc., so please don’t misinterpret that. I am saying we should exercise wisdom to protect our own.
I treat all mankind with dignity & respect & strongly believe children should never be used as tools for personal or political gain. This is not Christian, or humanitarian, but political. My governor has been soliciting the POTUS to come see for himself. His trip to Texas is to attend a fundraiser, not assess the situation. Really?? A local Mayor is up for re-election. He’s in the spotlight for the wrong reasons by offering shelters for immigrants without following procedures. Sound familiar? Protecting humans should come from the right heart motive, not personal gain.
I’m completely against flooding our cities with people who aren’t doing so as a direct result from a natural disaster. This disaster is man-made & self-inflicted. This will be like a cancer destroying our nation. Actually this is an internal terrorist attack where we’ll be sleeping with the enemy. Every country has border control. If you don’t believe it, ask Andrew Tahmooressi, our Marine who, for some strange, odd, reason, can’t be released from a Mexican prison. Our borders should never be respected differently.
Why do I have such a strong opinion about this? Let’s look at just a few of the reasons!
We have families (some are my friends) in Texas who are unemployed, children who don’t eat unless they eat at school & take back packs containing food home for dinner. Here’s a quote from Hunger Busters:
Over 137,000 (87%) of the children attending Dallas schools rely on school-subsidized breakfast and/or lunch as their only resource for food. All too often, these children go without dinner. Many of them have nothing to eat from school lunch one day until school breakfast the next.
At our recent National Social Services Convention, David Beckmann, President of bread for the world, informed us about the numerous programs that have been cut from the national budget. Many, if not most, of these affect children & senior citizens. This validates the previous quote & should enlighten us on the dire needs in our own neighborhoods. While our economy is improving & Texas is stronger than most, why add the strain? I won’t go into detail as to why these children are going home hungry or why people are unemployed. I will express my resistance to opening borders when we can’t provide for our own.
Again, this is an internal, political blow & other states, Florida & California, are experiencing the same. California protested sending 3 busloads back. Those immigrants were put on planes & sent to Houston? Now the government is sending armed government agents to fight the California protesters. Really? Our own people are being targeted? Is it me, or shouldn’t we be focusing our attention & resources on the root source?
The old saying, “Charity begins at home” should be applied. Our US government shut down this past year & I had friends hanging in the balance. Our US is on the brink of bankruptcy & many cities have already declared it. We have trillions of dollars in debt owed to other nations. Despite Obamacare, millions aren’t receiving medical treatment. Our veterans are denied well deserved benefits. Human trafficking is rampant. In all these things, what happens? We open our borders. I’m not a rocket scientist or an economist brain child, but I can see how this is pouring salt on an open wound. Well….maybe salt is too mild as salt can actually cure. Acid on an open wound would be more descriptive.
What makes this even worse is the fact that other countries, who have vowed to destroy America, are flying to Mexico to cross the border because…..they can. This leads me to the to believe this was the conspiracy all along. Innocent children & adults are being caught in the crossfire or are considered collateral damage. After all….if history serves us correctly, the past several political outbursts have been smoke & mirrors to disguise what is actually happening. Create a diversion & the American people will get their hair on fire & panties in such a wad, they’ll never acknowledge what is really happening. Not anymore. We have put our big girl panties on & are dealing with it. Sorry guys…..you catch my drift!Enough is enough!!! Stop shipping exhausted, malnourished, diseased humans from city to city knowing they won’t qualify to stay here. A recent Dallas newscast reported that they’ll soon be deported. Why expose them, weaken our defenses, turn citizen against citizen only to send them back? Contact your congressman, senator, governor & let your voice be heard. Posting your beliefs on social media is one thing & is powerful. Nothing compares to vocally reaching out & helping our officials realize we are not sheep, but humans whose heart beats for our great nation. This also affirms & cheers them on for valiantly fighting on our behalf. We voted them in & should continue to support them.
Questions??? Where are the resources coming from that are being wasted on such propaganda? How did they miraculously find billions of dollars in our budget? Seriously?? Where could these funds be reallocated? I know!!! They’re cutting welfare programs & people who are knowingly abusing the system are being forced into employment? What are some questions you may have?
You may read this & only visualize an angry, bitter, racist behind a keyboard. On the contrary, my heart is so very proud of my Hispanic, Brazilian, Indian, etc. friends who are now bona-fide Americans. Many of them share my same concerns or are even more vocal! They came to my America-land of the free because of the brave. They did so to obtain freedom from tyranny or to offer a better opportunity for their families. They did their due diligence, counted the cost & obtained citizenship. To the best my knowledge, NONE of them receive free government benefits. They are proud to wave the American flag. I salute, love & respect them immensely.
In summary… I am a Christian. I am vehemently against open borders. I am for taking care of Americans who need a hand up, not a hand out.
God Bless America,
