I was just thinking of starting this thread.
First, GG, I don't think it's an insult at all. I read where the Haiti gov't has 'summoned' the US ambassador to explain the president's comments. Really, does he want to go there? OK. The ambassador should print out about 50 pictures of people living in row after row of tarp-covered sheds next to a field of trash where you can't even see dirt or grass. And just to be clear, show pictures of where these groups of people go to the bathroom. Lay them out, or do a slideshow on a computer. Take pictures of what the 'median' house is in Haiti next to the 'median' house in the US. Show a table with murder rates and GPD/person and avg personal income of their nation vs the US. And when done walking through this, ask if they really have any further questions.
The real 'insult' is that those people and their gov't continue to live this way even after $billions have been given to them to fix things, which they refuse to do. It's 100% on them.
And I agree with Trump, we have zero need for uneducated thugs from 3rd world holes. And we should shut that down. AND, those countries should THANK us for it, we may leave some of their brightest/best people in their own country so they can improve their own nation! And lots of them here need to be returned. 3 choices: the country can let us land & unload them, the country can provide packed parachutes and we'll air drop them, or we can air drop them without parachutes. I don't care, it's not my fellow citizens. And it will tell me how their 'care' for their citizens. In fact, we should stop bribing these countries with $billions in aid. Let them put on their big-girl panties and take care of their own people.
[end rant]
BTW, my wife told me how facebook is exploding with idiots. So what. But no surprise, the lame-stream media are pushing this story & these people don't use 2 brain cells to put together statement and truth. Snowflakes are melting, which is surprising given the Al-Gore national freeze we have right now! (ok, that was a little bit of an extra rant).
And I'm sure some will say "See, that 'christian guy has no heart'. This isn't about that. The Bible has a great story about this, in fact it's in 3 of the 4 gospels it is so important.
Matthew 10:14 And whosoever shall not receive you, nor hear your words, when ye depart out of that house or city, shake off the dust of your feet.
Mark 6:11 And whosoever shall not receive you, nor hear you, when ye depart thence, shake off the dust under your feet for a testimony against them. Verily I say unto you, It shall be more tolerable for Sodom and Gomorrha in the day of judgment, than for that city.
Luke 9:5 And whosoever will not receive you, when ye go out of that city, shake off the very dust from your feet for a testimony against them.
We send missionaries out to these nations. They arrive with food and medicine and help and the Gospels. The people reject Christ. End of story. Christianity is not about endlessly caring for those who won't take care of themselves and reject Christ.
