The masses of people coming to the border are not a product of any administration's policy. They're fleeing Central America because of extreme conditions there. Christ is about showing compassion for those who suffer, not blame Biden for their suffering.

That is all good except when you ask them why they came here now, they tell you it is because Biden invited them, and as a matter of fact he did.
Biden's open-borders immigration policy -- why?

Can you provide a copy of the invitation? Or perhaps a recorded speech where Biden invited them to the United States?

btw, the referenced Washington Times article doesn't even include any interviews with "them".....

Exactly correct.

The issue today is borders. We want our peace, we want our walls, we want our security. We were born to it, we deserve it. We are entitled it. This is the prevailing attitude contributing to a weakened compassionate reaction, and we are only getting stingier as the world gets worse.

Next question.

So a clip of Biden answering for being in an administration that deported more people and saying asylum seekers should be heard is an open invitation in your mind? You apparently hear a very different message then the rest of us.

Is that a serious question? Maybe you totally missed the part where he encouraged illegals to surge to the border and made promises to entice them?

That wasn't an invitation to illegals. He was speaking to those seeking asylum...which every human being has a right to do.

Try again.

you are certainly entitled to your opinion. There can be no doubt that immigrants accepted his invitation and his promises. After he was elected they surged to the border in record numbers.

Yes I missed that part because it was not in the clip. Perhaps you linked the wrong clip? This one shows him promising to review asylum applications.

explain what you mean by that comment.

You were challenged to substantiate the subject of your thread, and you failed, thereby making an example of yourself to anyone reading along.

He very clearly said "all those people who are seeking asylum". Asylum seekers.

Your claim was that he invited "illegals" to surge the border. So which is it - are you lying, or does your worldview not differentiate between asylum seekers and "illegals"?

"I would make sure that we immediately surge to the border, all those people seeking asylum..."

Unless you think the "we" are immigrants he is saying that his administration would assign resources to process the asylum seekers.

..you have yet to provide any evidence that "immigrants accepted his invitation."

Indeed, there was a surge, but it wasn't due to an invitation from the POTUS.

As I recall, smugglers were conveying misinformation and there was a general perception that Biden was more compassionate than his predecessor. But there was no invitation.

No my world view embraces the truth of what happened not the etymology in an effort to avoid what clearly happened. People who say they are seeking asylum and enter our country illegally are still illegal aliens. If it walks like a frog and looks like a frog, guess what, it is a frog regardless of what anyone might want it to be. If you would like a few more hairs to split, I still have a few left, happy to give you one.

To obtain asylum through the affirmative asylum process you must be physically present in the United States. You may apply for asylum regardless of how you arrived in the United States or your current immigration status.
