There is something very Biblical about a free country dividing into two groups on the basis of value systems.

The left have decided to cast themselves in the role of the angels of light, but we were warned about that from the outset, a long time before America even existed.

The “tell” is the alliance with sexual perversion in many forms. This allows us to be sure that the less obvious choices are also falling into a broad spectrum of right and wrong.

It is perhaps easier for the left to try to sell compassion for the migrants than solidarity with transgendered and gays, on the face of it, compassion for the poor is what a Christian should support. However, we are doing nobody any favors by allowing a steady stream of illegals into any western country, it just further destroys the social fabric of the countries that produce these migrants and leads to two different wrong outcomes, the collapse of the home country’s social structure as more functional citizens stream out, and the collapse of functional societies as those people stream in without adequate preparation for the large scale changes they will need to make.

I think the only solution is a broad consensus that solutions must be found in the home countries, and whatever we can do to assist in that would be worthwhile, but ultimately the responsibility lies with those people and their governments. There is nothing to prevent a country like Honduras or El Salvador from enforcing the law, protecting the people who feel they must leave to survive, and creating the same sort of free society that attracts migrants to come to western countries. The only thing that does prevent this seems to be the political corruption of those particular nations, but this is a problem for their citizens to solve, just as political corruption in our countries is a problem for us to solve.

As to the Red Hen and businesses like that, I wish they would all post signs saying “Trump supporters unwelcome here” so we would know in advance and perhaps choose to patronize businesses that posted “all welcome” — I don’t encourage anyone on the right to engage in similar behavior although I support any business owner’s right to choose who may enter their establishment — ideally politics should be left at the door of any non-political type of enterprise or society of any kind (for example, a golf course, or a hotel or a restaurant). There are appropriate times and places for political debate and there are times that should be free from it.

I should add that I am aware that not all the migrants are “more functional citizens” which is fairly obvious from the rise of MS-13 gangs in America, but even if most of the migrants are the better half of the citizenry of their home countries it is still not a good idea to promote illegal immigration. By all means encourage legal immigration to fill labor market requirements, there is really no other viable reason to increase the population of the U.S. and most other western countries.
