"When we know longer say merry Christmas anymore, but happy holidays?" -Squallx
Seriously, who is stopping you from saying this? I said it on Friday to a co-worker who is leaving, "take care and have a Merry Christmas.", no one stopped me. The Anti-Christmas Leftist Police didn't penalize me. It's a silly bogyman you people use and I laugh at that.

Yeah, could care less if anyone insult Islam, a religion based on hate.
fake-ass drama
"America died tonight". Holy shit, way to really set the bar low for this lol. Things Trump has to accomplish:
-Not being as bad as Hitler
-Not letting America die

Again, if they don't wanna piss people off fair enough, but if they aren't going to be critical, they should at least be neutral as opposed to giving Muhammad lip service. You can avoid saying controversial things about Muhammad without sucking the ghost of his dick.

It's certainly not being neutral though, not if they don't mention a single negative thing about him. But fascism, of course, they can talk badly about. Makes it seem like they have an agenda.

But calling him "wise" is absolutely lipservice.

And yet they still do not seem to understand when Meghan tries to explain the distrust of the media.
An interesting article:
Illegal immigration is extremely costly — see how much your state is paying for it this year
"According to data from the Federation for American Immigration Reform, the fiscal burden of illegal immigration this year will top nearly $135 billion. Of that, $89 billion is the burden on states and $46 billion is burden on the federal government.

The net, however, is a little less. According to FAIR, illegal immigrants will contribute about $19 billion in tax revenue this year — $15 billion to the feds, $3.5 billion to the states — bringing the total burden down to about $116 billion. The costs FAIR calculated included expenditures from welfare, education, health care, law enforcement and other basic societal needs."
Here is a list of the states spending the most:
"Below are the 10 states that will spend the most this year:
California: $23,038,125,353
Texas: $10,994,614,550
New York: $7,489,141,357
Florida: $6,290,429,108
New Jersey:$4,466,838,574
Illinois: $3,220,767,517
Georgia: $2,487,719,503
North Carolina: $2,437,965,113
Maryland: $2,378,996,947
Arizona: $2,314,131,964
Meanwhile, Wyoming, West Virginia, South Dakota, North Dakota, Montana and Maine are the states being affected by illegal immigration the least. They each spent less than $43 million this year on it."
I certainly can't say it surprises me my state is on the list.

Explain how they're misleading.Unlike Surt and co, we understand bias doesn't prove unreliability.
Here's a fact check on the FAIR report
And below is a basic counter argument from a pro-immigrant think tank
The report relies upon flawed and empirically baseless assumptions to inflate its estimate of the costs which unauthorized immigrants impose on federal, state, and local governments. Much of what FAIR counts as the cost of unauthorized immigration is actually the cost of education and healthcare for U.S.-citizen children. In fact, over half of FAIR’s cost estimate consists of educational and healthcare expenditures for the children of unauthorized immigrants, of whom nearly three-quarters are native-born U.S. citizens. These native-born children are counted as a “cost” of illegal immigration if they are under 18, but as U.S. citizens if they are working, taxpaying adults. In its rush to place a price tag on unauthorized immigrants, FAIR is unable to see that investing in children today pays off economically tomorrow. FAIR also neglects to mention the enormous fiscal and economic costs that would be incurred by attempting to remove unauthorized immigrants from the United States. As the negative impact of anti-immigrant legislation on the fiscal bottom-line becomes more apparent, many taxpayers may begin to see that the “costs” cited by FAIR do not tell the whole story
Originally posted by SurturRegulating immigration is fine and well, doing it in the way Trump is is downright horrible. Separating families, deporting kids, sending ICE goons to patrol schools, hospitals and other public areas. Not to mention Trump is ratcheting up division and racism by demonizing all undocumented immigrants.
I truly hope they are misleading. I do not want it to be true.
