Other Church leaders have said this....

[Stan]

They told their clergy to ensure the will is up to date, as they may end up giving their lives for their neighbours.

I wonder if they told their clergy to expend as much energy, money, and man hours  into as a group trying to change the laws that are responsible for the mess and loss of life. Then all want to be seen as the righteous ones, those that care  ready to lay down their lives, not those nasty unchristian conservatives.   The mess we have going in MPLS is  manufactured  according to many, .Those constantly fanning the flames are not from MN, they are professionally trained agitators .

.It is a deflection from some of the most corrupt administrations in the U. It did as was intended ,drawing attention away fromthe fraud and theft They know exactly what they are doing  attention away from our governor, AG and our Somali  congress woman. The tide has turned in a rapid way to support of this corruption when it had been building against the democratic administration. Families are being encouraged publically  to rid the landscape of conservatives. "Sadly it will be necessary to take a harsh stand against family,even your own children or your parents" The leaders of this mess do not give a fig for the poor "illegals". They are simply useful idiots.

Democrats and republicans have had ample time to correct that border mess with common sense laws. laws that would eliminate the need to come illegal,would stop that hideous practise of trafficking children. I know what the dems get in return for this,for the life of me I cant understand the republicans for this to remain as it does. Everyone has to gain something or when one party basically has the rule this would change. There have been times when both parties have had control and we have  not made any headway.

I had a very unpleasant surprise last July. My granddaughter came for a visit and almost physically forced me out the door

I had no idea how sick I actually was until the nurse kept saying "I dont know why you are still on your feet.I was not aware of it but I was slurring my words.The staff tried until midnight,over 12 hours they had tried to find a bigger hospital to transfer me. St. Cloud has a wonderful big hospital 30 miles away,no room. The best they could do was at midnight a bed finally opend up over an hour away. Anyone want to guess what the problem was. Mpls and St Cloud  both have very large population of legal and illegal immigrants

I dont know if you are aware what has been going on in Mn. The fraud and theft is so extensive they still  dont have any idea of how much more there is. The corner the governor and friends was getting pretty tight. Of course deflection  and interest has to be focused elsewhere. What better way than a good old fashioned on protest with the threat of violence hanging over someones head There has been nothing said that. There is one   that is on a mission of getting a riot going. Supposed to be a former pastor. This is welcome news to the governor and friends. MN residents have been bilked of 9 billion dollars and counting .Whistle blowers (democrats) repot being  punished for trying to do something over all the fraud

So, what to do with those pesky immigrants?

A few years ago, Thailand was experiencing social unrest, during the reign of Yingluck Shinawatra. It had to do with rice subsidies which ~favored the countryside people over the city dwellers. The leader of one group, a former military officer, was identified. One day, as he was walking around, a sniper's  bullet hit him in the head. The people went home. Yingluck was flown out of the country. The people, more or less, returned to their previous life.

What kind of person would be willing to lay down his life for an 'undesirable'

[Gustave]

Within my own Family a Family member was here on a student visa, stayed past his visa and was ordered to depart the country. Everyone got together, cried and insured he got on the plane and left. This is the difference here. Many folks either came in illegally or came legally and overstayed - ignoring the laws. This is unfortunate and my heart does break for many who I wish an accommodation could be made for. The fact however is that the primary problem in this case is Trump Derangement Syndrome. It's got so bad I fear that Trump will soon make an official declaration that he wants everyone to breath air and that this would result in many liberals suffocating themselves. 

[Asia Joe]

It seems to me, observing from the other side of the planet, that some of these people are just rebelling against authority. 

Many I have seen on videos appear to be angry disobedient people.

Those kinds of statements are meant to make it look like americans object medical  care to those in need That is not true for most  but we dont antipate it impacting our own medical care I had to wait 18 hours for a bed to become available and yes it was because of the pesky immigrants..

I  would think people such as yourself would work towards throwing your Canadian borders wide open. A few million here or there shouldn't strain your system to bad. That is of course if they don't committ the fraud that has been committed here. A few white people but most of those charged were those pesky immigrants. This latest in MN was not a spontatenous riot. It  was   carefully organized by paid  rioter".Before you point to many fimgers  at the US stop and count the many contributions Canada has to welcoming millions of illegals across your border.I am sure all those that find fault live in a country that is without fault.

Why not just address the real issue you are getting at instead of a round  about way, this along with the Good Samaritan topic .

The first topic is encouraging those to be willing to defy the law in favor of their own determined "sanctuary". Which is in part why MN finds itself here.

The Good Samaritan is apples and oranges as it applies to Mn situation. It is not even in the same ball park

So what to do with the pesky immigrants is a question to trivialize the situation here. .That kind of a remark makes it seem as if MN was simply being petty and racist. We are having this situation because of the Biden admistration and their defiance of our immigration laws. So many seem to think ahh let them stay without one contribution to solving the problems it has created, just criticism for not handling their man made mess the way they would like to see. MOst of the criticism is successfully an attempt to deflect from a ongoing fraud investigation. Those doing so are very successful with leading their useful idiots  away from the massive fraud we are faced with.  MOst dont really care about 9 Billion and counting . As of now 85 % of somalias are on public assistance. We can not afford this type of forced generosity. Our schools/hospitals/ are stretched to the max, we cannot care for our own homeless, our veterans are left on the streets,the hired thugs  keep fanning the flame And those in the name of Christian  charity give this a screen of legitimacy . Those of you fron ither countries please step forward,get your borders wide open so those pesky immigrants can receive the treatment you think they deserve

What stuff? 

[Hanseng]

Fact is, aside from anti-Catholic bigotry, the Roman Catholic church has been very influential in the "sanctuary" movement, of which this is a manifestation. It's not a coincidence that Biden was a Roman Catholic who opened the borders to a largely RC flood of immigrants from S. America. I met one of the principals of the Sanctuary movement in Los Angeles. He was accompanied at times by a Jesuit priest. We talked a couple of times. In the course of one conversation, he mentioned that he had recently been in S. America "fomenting revolution." He wasn't joking. On another occasion, a different Jesuit told me that his associates had signed up 50,000  immigrants in one California county for amnesty during Reagan's administration. These would have been mostly Hispanic  The Irish were the first large group of RC to immigrate to America. Chinese emperor Kang Xi didn't want RCs in his country. He perceived that they were actually loyal to another "emperor," the pope. There has been ongoing conflict between the Vatican and the Chinese government. 

It's difficult to understand why some of these people are not being prosecuted for sedition.

An immigrant co-worker often sang the national anthem of her home country. She was a naturalized U.S. citizen. I asked her one day, in light of her oath of loyalty to the U.S., why did she always sing the national anthem of another country. She responded that while she took the oath, she didn't mean it, only she used the word "we" to indicate that others of her group also didn't mean it when they took the oath.

Give Canada enough time, they will also run themselves into the ground. An acquaintance of mine has two family members in Canada. Both are highly paid professionals. Their father is eagerly awaiting immigration, since he plans to get a monthly check from the government once he arrives.

Go to an ethnic grocery sometime. Note what customers use food stamps to pay for their purchases.  I asked a fellow onetime, how he and his companion happen to use food stamps and then drive off in a BMW.  Oh, she's just a relative, he replied. Strange, that California, which is  one of only two countries that taxes their citizens on foreign earned income, supports people with BMW driving relatives, using the tax dollars of locals.

[Hanseng]

Correction: California is not a country. The USA is one of only two countries that can charge citizens tax on their foreign earned income. California does have draconian policies when trying to collect from its even former residents.

[Stan]

The province of Ontario took in more immigrants than Florida and California combined in 2024. Not sure of last year.

We have a lot of Somalis in Canada; there has been some violence between the various tribes, but for the most part, they have settled in well and have become taxpayers.

As long as you don't lift the covers. MN is facing the most extensive fraud in history .The majority of those (over 100")tried and convicted are the "peaceful Somalia community. Working hand in glove with our idiot governor,he is so very proud of one of his accomplishments. Tampons in the boys bathrooms. Whistle blowers have tried to gain traction in this,just as it was starting to draw attention  poof we had a near riot on our hands. Took all attention of our governor and AG and Congresswoman. Fraud to the tune of 9 Billion and counting. There is no way this remained unnoticed. 250 state sponsered day care centers that never had one child enrolled,90 medical transport companies.some owned by day care owners, Never transported a single patient. The list is endless. Before this came to light I was more inclined to say,It is just a few. That simply is not true. The extent of this fraud needed willing accomplices. Not one Somalia out of thousands and thousands spoke out. Reaped the benefits so dont rock the boat,lavish lifestyles and support of overseas terrorists groups. Most of us now would like to see all of them legal and illlegal deported.  Before a comparison is drawn between the Good Samariatan and the victim in the ditch,not even apples and oranges. Perhaps Canada can throw wide the borders and invite all the crooks to make their home there. Does that make me a racist,possibly. Do I care, probably not in this case. I don't like people that lie,cheat,steal and abuse our hospitality. Regardless of skin color. Canada they are all yours
