Translation: You're A-OK with your taxpayer dollars and mine going to 60% of ILLEGAL aliens ripping off the system.

On the wrong side of history, again.

It’s speculation. Was the New Orleans terrorist an illegal? 9/11? Boston Marathon? Perhaps the U.S. should trim away the Iranian women’s soccer players?

Your argument: Because of these cherry picked events, NO illegal aliens have taken American lives.

You're this brainwashed.

I wonder how other countries would handle situations where I cross the border illegally? They probably wouldn't care.

Seriously, I'd bet it's a lot more than a misdemeanor

Cross the border illegally into North Korea and call us and tell us how it went.

Oh...wait.

I'm going to cut you some slack since you aren't well versed on intelligence. Take that any way that you want.

When a former CIA or FBI official says things like “there are sleeper cells here” or “1,000 Al Qaeda fighters have infiltrated the U.S.,” they are usually basing that on...

1. Patterns of travel and border crossings (e.g., known or suspected terrorists using certain routes).
2. Historical behavior of groups like Al‑Qaeda, ISIS, Hezbollah, or IRGC proxies and what they typically do before attacks.
3. Fragmentary reporting (informants, intercepted communications, captured documents) that implies presence and intent but doesn’t necessarily give names, addresses, or enough detail to build a case for a warrant and arrest.

That kind of intelligence is enough to say “the risk is real and possibly high,” but not enough to show up at a specific apartment and put people in handcuffs.

There is your intelligence brief of the day. I hope this helps you to understand my point a little better.

Remember who you're dealing with. While excellently written, well...the receptor can't fully consume.

I'm currently at the University of South Carolina campus (many of numerous visits) for corporate work. Hootie formed here, they were USC students. Drove past the Capitol today, where they snapped an album cover.

I went there too in 87. He was probably out in the audience but I don't think he knew who I was though...At the time.

Yep go to Five Points and you'll see the college party place and where they got their start.

Been here (and there) many times. 5 Points in the 90s was an awesome place. Now, it's dangerous. Police call boxes everywhere. My son went here for a semester also. We went out to dinner one night there. The place next door had a shooting/killing drive-by the night before. Taped and boarded up windows.

Even at orientation, they cautioned parents/new students about safety around the area.

It ain't what it used to be.

Next is your **** sandwich!

So outdated intelligence led to the murder of 165 girls, but you’re quite certain a FORMER CIA agent knows WTF she is talking about when it comes to what is supposed to be current intelligence. The irony.

First off, it wasn't 165 girls. It was 165 souls, MOSTLY girls. Do you see how you just erroneously mis-reported the facts on this matter? Yet, you want to call into question the validity of information from the intelligence community? How ironic.

Again, if you read my explanation on intelligence, it's not 100% data specific but rather an educated guestimate based on several factors. The very thing you're questioning and posing an argument, if you want to label it as such, against me falls in-line with what I've already explained to you. We're in agreement for the most part. The real disagreement is that I understand threat actors and how could they not take advantage of a wide-open boarder, free transportation to a city center, and given taxpayer funded accommodations and sustenance and your take that it's a big nothingburger and the Democratic party does nothing wrong? One side (me) makes a good theoretical probability based on my military background and you bury your head up your ***.

We’ve been through this. It’s stupid and tiresome and the economy has gotten worse since the deportations.

They've got a big inner city problem.
