Morality is a subject that triggers some people, I presume because they are susceptible to being called immoral. For me, morality is built upon some assumptions about fundamental values and behaviors which define "right" and "wrong." It was taught to me by my elders when I was a young boy and it hasn't changed as I've gotten older. I do not have the privilege of adapting morality so that it is convenient for my life, and morality may be quite inconvenient at times. And in a system of morals, as I understand morals, the answer to the question is almost never "it depends."

Most religions have an inherent code of morality, though not all religious people either accept or follow the code. And a person need not have a religion to be a moral person. Some religious adherents apply the code in a way that defies the teachings of the religion (e. g., the Westboro Baptist Church protests at military funerals) and those who are not religious use those examples to criticize all religions. But there are many religious people who attempt to follow a moral code. . . and some of them are slammed for their behavior.

Yes, simply believing in a moral code might place you at odds with those around you, and actually following that code increases the odds. It's not easy. I try to be a moral person, and my dedication to that ideal has increased as I have gotten older. However, I do not claim to follow my moral code without fail, but I do try to learn from my mistakes and not repeat them. I don't do it because it is easy. I do it because I think it is the right thing to do.

Do you consider yourself to be a moral person? Does the decision to have a moral code have consequences in your personal life?

What should we do to prevent yet millions more of the Democrat's illegal border crossers -- whose first act upon entering America is to break our laws -- from destroying our country?

If I were to enter someone else's country by breaking through their border illegally I would expect to be shot on sight by their military or law enforcement people. And I think they would be completely justified in doing that. Who would have the nerve to break into another country illegally! Every country has a right to protect its border by whatever means necessary. Why is America the only country in the world that is somehow not entitled to this right?

And that might actually be the most humane way to handle border crossings because after the first one or two people are shot a lot less people are going to even attempt it. Thousands of people including many children have died horrible deaths over the last two and a half years since the Democrats opened the borders and encouraged illegal immigration because of the Democrat's open border policy. They died in the deserts and the rivers and at the hands of foreign human traffickers who treat them like animals herding them through the deserts to sell them into slavery making a fortune doing it from the Democrat's open borders.

How can the Democrats claim they are humane? They are encouraging people to risk their lives and die a brutal death.

So what's the best way to fix the Democrat's invasion of illegal border crossers flooding America?
