Mexico is occupying the US?

Your comparison is bullshit.

Military occupation under false pretenses is hardly the same thing as "illegal" immigration.

What an idiotic comic.

Mexico is occupating the US?

.

celebrating labour day is not occupation (though I wish it wasn't a national holiday in the U.K because then I would feel rebellious about not working)

also the occupation of Iraq is a good thing considering the people want us there and the fact that were actually needed

Meh.

Be kind.. or something.

You took the words right out of my mouth.

Similar wording does not indicate equivalence.

An apple is a fleshy fruit with a thin skin. The colour of the flesh is white, while the skin is usually red and green. It tends to grow best in cool, temperate climates. It can be eaten raw, but is often used in cooking.

Oranges are citrus fruits with thick rinds. The colour of the pulp is usually orange, as is the skin, hence the name. Oranges tend to grow best in sub-tropical climates. They are almost always eaten raw, and rarely cooked.

I think you get the point.

The mexicans are comming! The mexicans are comming! Run, head for the hills! :eek: Grab your guns and remember the Alamo!

Seriously though: No. Big difference.

Notice how the character making the allegation is hispanic. Political corectness shits me something terrible..

I suppose when undocumented workers have destroyed our entire infrastructure and killed tens of thousands of innocent civilians, then their presence in the US will be bad.

On the other hand, when the Jews in Palestine and the US forces in Iraq start mowing lawns, picking fruit, becoming nannies, etc. then they will be good. Of course, they will have to stop killing people and take a pay cut and lose all their benefits and be at constant risk of deportation. Heck, even if there was just a way to deport them, that might be a good thing.

I just thought he was a beatnik...how can you tell he's 'hispanic'? In fact, he could be asian, or part black...where are you getting 'hispanic' from?

I will just come forward and say right now that I support the free immigration of all Americans (soldier or otherwise) to Iraq for the purpose of obtaining a reasonable living with which to support themselves and their family.

Who's this "ya'll" of which the title speaks?

The chick in the comic?

Can't say it any better then that.....

Yay. Topic closed?

But...what if the Apple is secretly oppressing the Orange?

What then?!?

Stop buying apples?

Stop buying apples?

Communist Pinko! You hate the flag, don't you, Hippie? The Apple is merely there to help the Orange free itself from the tyranny of its previous owner, and there will be no discussion of the issue!

Quite simply: youre a dumbass.

illegal immigrants = apples
military = oranges
you are comparing the two

I wonder what would happen if say Mexico (though it won't happen) were to impose its own economic sanctions on the US. Did you know that Mexico is the world's number one exporter of oil to the US? Yet some of us want to treat their people like shit.

The interplay between the two of you is especially amusing as neither one of you are citizens of the United States.

As for the comparison: um...no. From a technical standpoint you could try to compare them, but really, it just doesn't work.

On the radio here in Sunny Phoenix they have slathering hicks that whine about "illegals" who "invaded the country."

What's really sad is that this is about the level of argument we've come to expect from the right wing.

I hope the "Illegal" immigrants start killing more AmeriKKKans! I can hardly wait for the ameriKKKan scum bodies to start filling the streets!

Far from it, it is to be expected. The left tends to be more widely read and more tolerant of a wider range of opinion.

Coalition/US forces...
In Germany, Turkey, Bosnia, Kosovo, Saudi Arabia, Cuba... I dunno, it seems to me that Coalition/US forces are everywhere, no matter is it good or bad...

Jews in Palestine...
Jews lived there long before Arabs, so that is good!

"Undocumented Workers" in the US illegally...
i have no idea why are you complaining about these guys. How do you think US Army testst new biological and nuclear weapons? Whadda you think? Is this good or bad?

I just thought he was a beatnik...how can you tell he's 'hispanic'? In fact, he could be asian, or part black...where are you getting 'hispanic' from?
I dunno, greenish hue to skin, goatee, wavy hair. Seems to be a stereotype.

A common Britisher does his best, m'lord.

Latinos are stereotyped as having greenish hued skin??

Hey, there's a surprise. Someone equating illegal immigration to a military invasion. :rolleyes:

Um ... what? For seriously?

Yep. Canada too. (http://www.eia.doe.gov/pub/oil_gas/petroleum/data_publications/company_level_imports/current/import.html)

stupid

What's really sad is that this is about the level of argument we've come to expect from the right wing.

ah, but which is sadder - that we expect it or that they find it convincing?

Mexico is occupying the US?

Your comparison is bullshit.
Figuratively yes.

ah, but which is sadder - that we expect it or that they find it convincing?

That they find it convincing is sadder. Or funnier, if one enjoys humiliating them at arguments.

Figuratively yes.

And the US is occupying Iraq figuratively as well? Those imagined rifles, those figurative civilian deaths, those conceptual bombings?

:rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes:

Um ... what? For seriously?
Do you think gas prices are high now? Just imagine how far up they would go if Mexico stopped selling us oil overnight.
