    Well, maybe I am just too American for your argument, but I certainly think legal authority to relocate people is important

    obsession is a negative connotation, that, while it can be applied towards something constructive is nevertheless still used negatively to denote other areas that are negatively affected.

    E.G. “His obsession with his work is great but as a result his wife left him long ago”.


    You want to use the same word with same level of fixation only a positive connotation? Try “Devotion” or “Passion”. “Obsession” is never used positively, nor will anyone say “thank you” for you calling them obsessed.

    It seems like Florida is a peninsula that doesn't surround Haiti

    Imagine the absolute shameless hypocrisy required to be okay with what Biden is doing but then go to crying when State governors act to protect their own state

    I made no point concerning Cuba. I never even mentioned Cuba.

    The hell if you didn't. I quoted you and it's a mere four or five posts above the one you just made.

    @Think for myself

    If you never even mentioned Cuba how is it that I'm quoting you above?

    Ah, correct. In pwning some ridiculous comment from someone else about Cuba, I did mention Cuba. Sorry, must have meant more to you than me.

    Sure try to turn your disingenuousness back around on me even though I literally quoted you and you sat there and denied it.

    Do not even read your own post? I literally quoted you mentioning Cuba and then you turn right around and denied it and somehow that's my fault.

    Okay. You have a wonderful evening because I'm dismissing you at this point.

    FYI, you already effing know why people come here, because it is much easier to make a living and get by !!!!!!

    That obvious stuff aside, Martha's Vineyard has nothing to do with what's going on in Haiti.

    Wow, so repeating the same mistake is what RWers relish !!! :) :)

    I'll make a bet with any RWer now, should DeSantis be dumb enough to repeat, FL will get more Haitian refugees !!! :)

    Anywhere there's unrest in the world.... It's our duty in America to keep absorbing all of these migrants until the American population is but a small fraction..... Then Democrat politicians can keep promising them everything and rest assured that there one party dictatorial hold on power will be certain.

    Screw you American citizens.... You're an afterthought at best

    Please do not edit my posts and reply to them, I know you know better than that.

    Let me know if you want to call my bluff on my prediction, i.e., look how much worse it is at the border now.

    DeSantis will send illegal immigrants to wherever Tel Aviv tells him to send them.

    I was comical how quickly the denizens of the Vineyard got rid of the immigrants sent their way last year.
