Undeclared war requires military conquest, demographic takeover would imply that the illegals weren't leaving, which many do after making enough cash to do something decent back in mexico, and Surlethe has been shown numerous times to contain more than decent mental facilities, whereas you're reguarded as enough of a moron to be moved to the sewer.Mal_Reynolds wrote:Are the concepts of undeclared war, demographic takeover or military escort beyond your limited mental facilities?Surlethe wrote:For fuck's sake, your entire fucking argument is based on a series of goddamned equivocations!

There's no strawman there. You want your quote thrown back at you?A strawman fallacy. Shock. Amazement. Only not, because you're a troll.I have no intention of supporting the claim that there is no impediment, because I never made that claim. I only refuted your implication that no one gets through legally.You have again failed to present evidence that there is no impediment for many other individuals. You simply refuse. Probably because your argument is dead in the water.
Obviously, it is a realistic option, because hundreds of thousands of them per annum realistically exercise it.If the entry is onerous, burdensome, and full of roadblocks(And when this is true for those coming from Japan and England with full employment already, it's doubly so for these poor fucks), it is not a realistic option.
The malleability of the source is irrelevant. The data presented by the source is relevant. You still won't address the data, instead continuing to focus on the source itself. Your bullshit basically boils down to "They could be wrong!" but you can't be arsed to show that they are wrong.You have not. You have cited Wikipedia, a source which can be altered by anyone, at anytime. It is not credible.Burden of proof -- substantiate the existence of a pixie in your ear. I have already substantiated the reality of undocumented wars. You have so far attacked only the source, not the validity of the sourced information. I'll take that as concession.The pixie in my ear says it's wrong. Dispute. The. Data.
It debates data, period. It does not bitch and whinge and moan about the credibility of the source without verifying or falsifying the data.You have cited Wikipedia, a source which can be altered by anyone, at anytime. It is not credible. Logical debate does not debate data that is not credible.The real world of logical debate stipulates that attacking the source without disputing the data it presents is a fallacy.Or we can simply live in the real world of logical debate and realize it's a worthless source, just like Wikipedia.
Are you that ignorant? Are you claiming that the Korean fucking War did not happen?If a source is not credible, it's claims are not credible, therefore they need not be discussed in detail. Are you this dense?The definition is not that narrow, and for good reason. Yes, that's what the translation from the Latin reads, but in application it simply means to attack the source without refuting that which the source presents.Negative. Ad Hominem is attacking the man, you illiterate monkey.
Not at all -- one must refute only one. You have yet to refute even one military action detailed within the disputed source.By this logic, one must individually refute every impossibility in the Bible to declare it is not a credible source on historical and scientific data.Precisely -- you have attacked the source of the data rather than falsifying the data itself.I've not attacked you as a part of my argument yet. I have pointed out Wikipedia is a worthless source.
Without substantiating the insult as relevant to the particulars of the argument -- which would require you to refute even one claim of the sourced material to establish my gullibility -- that's still an ad hominem.No, I've insulted you.And now you've committed ad hominem, even by your rudimentary understanding of the term.It merely points out you're a gullible moron who tries to use a worthless source to try and puff himself up.
I've done no such thing.I'm waiting for you to actually debate, instead of shoving the Burden Of Proof away from yourself at every instance.
There's concessions here? Would you be a doll and bring me some popcorn, please?Oh. And concession accepted on all the points you've failed to reply to.

What kind of gibbering, gum-flapping cretin thinks spewing non-sequiturious shit will support his point? You're so fucking stupid you think that an undeclared war (which hasn't been shown to exist) is reason to invade the country which didn't declare war on us; you think a demographic takeover (like the ones black people have done in urban areas) is bad in of itself; and you think the military escorts (another claim for which I've seen no evidence) have automatically been provided by the Mexican government instead of simply corrupt soldiers or former soldiers who now work for smugglers. That is, you're a fucking idiot, and a racist one to boot. Go to hell, shitlicker, and enjoy your stay.Mal_Reynolds wrote:Are the concepts of undeclared war, demographic takeover or military escort beyond your limited mental facilities?Surlethe wrote:For fuck's sake, your entire fucking argument is based on a series of goddamned equivocations!

In the interest of fairness, I should note I just voted in your ban poll, and your stupidity has vindicated my position beyond any reasonable doubt. I won't miss you, motherfucker.
A Government founded upon justice, and recognizing the equal rights of all men; claiming higher authority for existence, or sanction for its laws, that nature, reason, and the regularly ascertained will of the people; steadily refusing to put its sword and purse in the service of any religious creed or family is a standing offense to most of the Governments of the world, and to some narrow and bigoted people among ourselves.

Well, this has been amusing -- but I just received a PM threatening me with banning unless I concede. That's not logical argument, that's pure bullying. From what I saw looking around this site before joining, I was struck by this being a place where a logical argument could be made on its rational merit, not on its emotional palatability, and not on questions of political correctness.
It sure as hell didn't look like a place where arguments are won through bullying.

Alright Mal, I'm gonna lay it all out for you really straight and simple. First off, you're wrong about Mexico 'invading' the states. Demographic takeover really only translates down to you being a xenophobic racist fuck. Demographic takeover could occur legally as well. Besides that, you've yet to sufficiently show that the Mexican military intentionally intruded into the states. Most of the minor intrusions are believed to be accidental, and are stated to be such. If the border patrol folks didn't agree, then they ought to have said something on their official government website thingy. Since they haven't, you're just talking out of your ass, and cherry-picking quotes from old news articles.
The military intrusions during which military men shot at police and border patrol typically deal with drug smuggling, and are more likely to be related to gang activity, since Mexico has nothing to gain by selling americans vast amounts of weed. The cash goes to the drug cartels. Besides this, it's well known that gangs and drug cartels have recruited from the Mexican military, as well as their equivalent of the FBI, called the AIF.
link
You also seem to believe that the biggest problem the US faces is illegal immigration, but that's been shown to be false several times in this thread, so I wont reiterate.
Your notions of undeclared war are also false. Yes, there have been many undeclared wars in the past, but these still boiled down to military actions. Illegal immigration isn't a military action, and like I said before, your claims of a demographic takeover are obviously racist, and damned stupid, too. You're going to say that it's a stretch for me to say that the uniformed soldiers were working for drug cartels when firing upon US soldiers, but both the US and Mexico are aware of the situation, and are trying to stop it. Since Mexican soldiers aren't coming into the US and declaring land under the control of the Mexican military, you're full of shit. The undeclared wars in US history all involved military deployments with the intent of gaining control of an area of land.
You're basically full of shit. Concede already.

I have almost reached the regrettable conclusion that the Negro's great stumbling block in his stride toward freedom is not the White Citizen's Counciler or the Ku Klux Klanner, but the white moderate, who is more devoted to "order" than to justice; who constantly says: "I agree with you in the goal you seek, but I cannot agree with your methods of direct action"; who paternalistically believes he can set the timetable for another man's freedom; who lives by a mythical concept of time and who constantly advises the Negro to wait for a "more convenient season."
Demographic takeover is the catchphrase for "I want my country pure and white." Look up demographic takeover in google or just find a White Supremacist website and you'll see their position on demographic takeover.
Demographic takeover is a racist sentiment. People are people whether they are white, black or blue. Illegal aliens can't vote and only citizens can vote, so demographic takeover's code for I'm a racist. A citizen's a citizen and a white citizen has as much to vote for as a black one or an asian one or a hispanic one.

Some people think that "logical argument" means "play nice and don't get on my case for failing to produce evidence to support my claims". What Shitwit doesn't realize is that if he submitted a paper to a review board in a university and refused to provide sources for his claims other than bloggers repeating each other, they would flunk him. "A place for logical argument" doesn't mean "you can get away with bloody murder and no one will do anything to you".

I wonder where people like him get this idea that "logical argument" means that the standards are less strict. It means the opposite: standards are more strict, and you can't participate if you ignore those standards.

No it couldn't, because if it happened legally it wouldn't be a takeover, just a demographic shift within America's citizenry.Demographic takeover could occur legally as well.
See the links posted in the thread this one was split from.Besides that, you've yet to sufficiently show that the Mexican military intentionally intruded into the states.
200+ in a 10 year period. That's like your neighbor accidentally wandering into your house 23 times in one year, or just under twice, every month.Most of the minor intrusions are believed to be accidental, and are stated to be such.
I am neither full of shit, nor will I concede when I'm not wrong.They do.If the border patrol folks didn't agree, then they ought to have said something on their official government website thingy. Since they haven't, you're just talking out of your ass, and cherry-picking quotes from old news articles.
Nothing except a vast amount of income from vast amounts of drug sales of vast amounts of weed.The military intrusions during which military men shot at police and border patrol typically deal with drug smuggling, and are more likely to be related to gang activity, since Mexico has nothing to gain by selling americans vast amounts of weed.
And from the drug cartels into the Mexican economy, which needs all the help it can get, and which help the Mexican government permits -- and according to the second sourced article in the other thread, assists and the accounts of Mexican military escorting and forcibly defending drug shipments, assists.The cash goes to the drug cartels.
Source 1.
Source 2.
Source 3: Stratfor
ICE Most Wanted information on Guillen (current as of 12/12/05)
And this means what? Are they recruiting their uniforms and equipment as well?Besides this, it's well known that gangs and drug cartels have recruited from the Mexican military, as well as their equivalent of the FBI, called the AIF.
I've never said, even once, that illegal immigration is the biggest problem the US faces. Anywhere.You also seem to believe that the biggest problem the US faces is illegal immigration, but that's been shown to be false several times in this thread, so I wont reiterate.
It is supported by military action -- or if you prefer, paramilitary action which Mexico's government takes no steps to end.Your notions of undeclared war are also false. Yes, there have been many undeclared wars in the past, but these still boiled down to military actions. Illegal immigration isn't a military action.
As I've already made clear, race is irrelevant to the issue....and like I said before, your claims of a demographic takeover are obviously racist, and damned stupid, too.
Substantiate that Mexico's government is taking any active steps to end the problem.You're going to say that it's a stretch for me to say that the uniformed soldiers were working for drug cartels when firing upon US soldiers, but both the US and Mexico are aware of the situation, and are trying to stop it.
No, Mexican civilians are coming into the US and declaring personal ownership of property, and when this is jeopardized, Mexican military assets ensure that it happens.Since Mexican soldiers aren't coming into the US and declaring land under the control of the Mexican military, you're full of shit.
That's because our undeclared wars occurred in areas where open warfare was already ongoing.The undeclared wars in US history all involved military deployments with the intent of gaining control of an area of land.
You're basically full of shit. Concede already.

SirNitram has failed pretty spectacularly so far to show that I've employed fallacious argument, and has flatly refused to concede his own fallacies. Would you like to take a shot at it?Darth Wong wrote:I wonder where people like him get this idea that "logical argument" means that the standards are less strict. It means the opposite: standards are more strict, and you can't participate if you ignore those standards.

Keep lying. I stand by the record. You are free to still meet your burden of proof, but I can see you'd rather defend the idea that 'Demographic Takeover' is anything but a phrase racists use to declare that the area's not 'pure' enough.Mal_Reynolds wrote:SirNitram has failed pretty spectacularly so far to show that I've employed fallacious argument, and has flatly refused to concede his own fallacies.
