Lori Lightfoot doubts Gov. Abbott’s faith as migrant buses arrive in Chicago:

Recommended Posts

So awesome. 

 

Chicago Mayor Lori Lightfoot cast doubt on Gov. Greg Abbott’s Christian faith in remarks denouncing the Texas Republican busing migrants from the southern border up to the Windy City. 

"He professes to be a Christian," Lightfoot said at a press conference on Sunday. "This is not the Christianity and the teachings of the Bible that I know. And I think religious leaders all across the country are standing up and denouncing exactly this."

Lightfoot held a press conference after about 50 more migrants bused from Texas reached Chicago over Labor Day weekend. Abbott has been sending buses of migrants to liberal cities such as Washington, D.C., and New York City since April. 

"President Biden's inaction at our southern border continues putting the lives of Texans — and Americans — at risk and is overwhelming our communities," Abbott said last week when announcing the first buses of migrants reached Chicago. 

Lightfoot has slammed the decision to bus migrants as "racist" and added in her remarks Sunday that the policy was "unpatriotic."

"I think it's decidedly unpatriotic and un-American," she said.

Racist :lol: 

Unpatriotic :lol: 

Un-American :lol: 

I presume the last two are part of the lib plan started by Biden in his Mussolini speech where they are trying to claim to be the party of patriotism?  Racism, well, when all you have is a hammer, every problem looks like a nail.

I don’t see how it could be described as “unpatriotic,” but I get the argument for calling it inhumane.  Yes, these people are crossing the border with apparently no plan, but intentionally shipping them to other cities is stepping it up a notch.  I do think it’s smart to get the politicians in those cities to get a sense of what TX is dealing with, but it’s still kinda inhumane.

I may be wrong but I don't think they are just put on buses and shipped off. I think they are asked where they would like to go. Some already have family in these cities or close by.  Even though its the greatest state in the USA not everyone wants to be in Texas.

Inhumane how?  They should get to live in whatever city they choose, or else it's unfair?  Would they be too far from the family they left to make money here and send it back?  :wacko:

Inhumane is mutilating children and you’re ok with that. Pick your battles, freak.

Biden has been shipping these people around the USA in the middle of the night since day one. I never heard you call that inhumane!

Yep. We have a winner here. 

These liberal mayors are all about painting a bad picture of conservatives. And nothing else. They are willing to sacrifice our way of living, people's lives, and common decency and a great way of living to gain or keep power. 

And so many of the liberals out there just fall for it hook, line, and sinker. Liberals are really dumb.

No. He's a genius because he is advertising it in the plain of day. And he keeps doing it.  And he keeps exposing the liberal mayors you voted for because they are all going nutso to the press.  :banana:

Well if he was flying them instead of putting them on a bus, he’s already one step ahead.

But if it’s actually true that these are entirely voluntary (and the people know what they’re signing up for), then no neither would be inhumane

Don't worry about Tim.  A raging centrist who voted for Trump who can't help himself when it comes to bashing Republicans and defending Biden at every turn.  

He is very complicated.

Didn't the Philly mayor release a video of him dancing when they became a "sanctuary city"?  Or am I thinking of a different mayor?

That’s the one. What if you had a sanctuary city and no one wanted to come?

Well, Abbott’s buses were all volunteers who signed documents stating that they volunteered while Biden’s flights were not voluntary. 
 

Now who is inhumane besides Lori Lightfoot?

I think it is humane, I did not fuss when Biden was doing it.  Not going to fuss now.

I see these places as true sanctuaries for these people. 

Of course alternatively we could secure the border if folks think this is all so bad.....   🤔

As opposed to keeping them in overcrowded small communities whose resources have been overwhelmed so they can recieve no assistance?    To me it is far better to send them to where they can recieve some assistance, if we insist on allowing them to remain in the country.

It's pretty simple. The people who want the border open don't want the illegals themselves in their cities. Because all they desire is the appearance of being humanitarian, not actually to be partaking in the process.

Nothing happening on the border is humanitarian. Thousands have died, almost half of the women have experienced sexual abuse or rape.

Serious question:

All the "sanctuary cities" that I'm aware of are far north away from the Mexican border (Seattle, Philly, Chicago, Boston, Eugene, etc).  What is the closest sanctuary city to Mexico, and are they stepping up and welcoming in illegals?

I wouldn't either. But liberals don't face the truth of the situation. That's why they all refuse to visit the border.
