Frequently Americans who understand the true significance of our immigration laws and need for secure borders lament that the Left appeals to the emotions of Americans. The emotion that is most often cited is that of compassion.
Americans are among the most kind-hearted and generous people on earth. Therefore appeals to compassion can be very effective.
Frequently we make decisions either based on emotions or reason. Generally emotional decisions ignore cold, hard facts.
Consequently the Radical Left, the media and globalist immigration anarchists have weaponized compassion using our best intentions against us, always portraying illegal aliens in the most sympathetic ways possible. While many illegal aliens are simply desperate people who want to flee the grinding poverty of their home countries to come to the United States for a better life. However the United States does not have infinite resources.
We need to compare the United States to an overcrowded lifeboat that is tossed in a storm with many other people thrashing about in the cold water. The problem is that if we permit those in the water onto the lifeboat, it will capsize.
Simply stated, uncontrolled immigration is an invasion that will quickly overwhelm our nation’s economy and infrastructure. Overcrowding our schools has a deleterious impact on the education our children receive. Flooding America with millions of additional aliens impacts the price and available of housing, driving up prices while the massive influx of competing foreign workers frequently displaces Americans and drives down wages. This causes massive increases in homelessness across the United States.
Additionally, it is often all but impossible to know the true identities of aliens who enter the United States without inspection or establish when, where or how they actually entered. There is no easy way to know if they are fugitives from justice in other countries or are determined to establish and/or participate in transnational criminal organizations and gangs or international terrorist organizations.
The term “Undocumented Immigrant” as I noted in my recent article, Fake News Begins With Fake Language, was created by the Carter administration to obfuscate the truth about illegal immigration. The term “Undocumented Immigrant” should actually give everyone a serious case of “cause for pause.” It has been said that you cannot tell a good guy from a bad guy without a “scorecard.” Undocumented Aliens have no scorecards, or are unwilling to show you their scorecards.
But in playing the emotion game, the Radical Left and mainstream media that accuses the Trump administration and immigration law enforcement officers of creating a “Climate of Fear” within the immigrant communities, are actually the ones who have created that “climate of fear.”
