Because they aren't fleeing poverty. This is just a bullshit narrative to pander to the bleeding heart faux-libs.

It reminds me of another bullshit narrative that was spread recently:

https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-5869829/amp/Father-two-year-old-face-child-separation-crisis-speaks-out.html

This little girl was not only not seperated from her mother, but mommy paid a coyote $6,000 to smuggle them into the US. That's a lot of money for most Americans, let alone impoverished, starving third worlders!

They are fleeing themselves.

Ask these libs how we're helping anyone by sending marines to support foreign countries, while the people our marines are helping leave to take their jobs before they get back. Then don't pay taxes and instead mail the money home only to buy cheap goods from another nation. It's cancerous, no other way to describe what they want.

These people all look like shit. Exactly what I expect poor people to look like.

I agree it's just about impossible to tell if someone is rich or poor by what they are wearing. I would have never made the argument that the invading caravan looks too well dressed to be poor.

Instead I would make the argument that we cannot tell anything about them by looking at their clothing. We need to have them go to an embassy or get a visa like normal people do in the 21st century to find out who they are because there are so many possibilities.

  • If they are wearing rags they could be wonderful people who would make a great addition to our country.

  • If they are wearing expensive suits they could be escaped convicts who stole the clothes while robbing a high end residence.

  • If they are wearing average clothes like healthy everyday Americans, they could be contagious lepers or hospital escapees with ebola.

We have no idea who they are. Clothes are seldom a good way to make an evaluation of someone's character. So let's strike this from the convo and just say we don't want anyone to come across the border without going through proper channels even if they're wearing italian suits or they're in chanel and dripping with diamonds.

For all we know these people have bombs in their backpacks and strollers. I don't actually think they do, but we don't know for sure unless someone looks in each backpack or stroller do we?

I don't care what they're wearing. I don't care what color their skin is. I do care if they're freeloaders coming for gibs. I do care if they're invaders who are part of isis. I do care if they were released from prison and sent to the US because they are serial killers or rapists. I do care who we let roam our streets. You should care, too.

And many are over weight. Poor people in Africa and India have zero body fat. I always look at body fat for indicator of true poverty.

There is a rising “middle class” in these regions that is experiencing an obesity problem; especially Africa. They’re still poor by western standards but rich enough to fatten up.

If they're rich enough to get and stay fat, then they're really not in dire straits.

They're not so well dressed. Basic clothes such as they wear are now available free or almost free almost anywhere in the world. Nice circle jerk though, we don't have nearly enough posts that let people

fucking wank each other off about how their conservative values prove they're the good side

Its the same question as why do the poor rapfugees from Africa and middle east have nicer phones runing from a war torn country than most of the people who work 40-50 hours in the countries they are fleeing to.

If communism is so great, why are they fleeing to a capitalistic nation?

Fuck off faggot. Don't give Soros his Purple Revolution Civil War. I don't care what you do, jewlieboy, because I'll just laugh when you're taken away in handcuffs, but the rest of us are going to keep our cool and watch what happens. We are not afraid to take a shot to defend our country, but we are not going to do anything like you suggest until we are sure violence is the only way.
