We have plenty of everything here

Jobs, schools, hospitals, affordable housing, plenty of open land and resources.

Hell, we should be encouraging folks from less fortunate circumstances to move here rather than trying to keep them out.

We have no need to know why and how many are here, we should just be thankful that people of the world want to share in what we have.

And the Trumps of this country can go fuck themselves!

Perfect takedown! tonyt53 Jun 2016 #1
