Immigrants are not the ones gunning down massage therapists and those who visit day spas. Immigrants are not the ones bear spraying Capitol Police officers or crushing them in doorways in the Capitol Insurrection. Immigrants are not the people blowing up motor homes in Nashville. It's not immigrants raining down bullets on concert goers in Las Vegas, or shooting up night clubs in Miami. It's not immigrants spreading variants of COVID.

My personal favorite line of bullshite: Our country is full. There is not any room. Yet Tucker Carlson and those who buy that line also insist women should be forced to carry all pregnancies to term--ie have more babies. But if we're full, then we're full.

Scratch the surface, and Carlson is railing against contreception, birth control, and female autonomy over reproductive health. Give women educations and control over their own reproduction, and women will have fewer babies--1 or 2, rather than 5 or 6 or 8 or 18. What Tucker doesn't come out and say is that white families are not having as many children as brown families are. That's it.

My step dad was the oldest of 16 children, Catholic family. Lots of my Catholic friends grew up in families with four or five brothers and sisters. Mormon friends came from large families, too. However, most of those folks grew up and had two kids, maybe three.

They want a white christian patriarchal society. The future is female and mocha colored, and those pasty white males who have never had to compete on a level playing field are terrified because they know deep down they're about to lose their free ride and be exposed as ordinary and stupid.

Dude, he just dissed CSULB. He's a smug, elitist, legacy who probably could not get into CSULB on his own merit. One of the best colleges for training teachers I know of.
