Failed 2016 presidential candidate and former Florida governor Jeb Bush says Americans who are urging for immigration controls are “threatened” by their perception that the United States is “changing” and becoming “less white.”

In a podcast interview with National Review Editor Nordlinger, Bush said immigration controls were “foolhardy” and that illegal alien crime gets too much attention compared to crimes committed by American citizens.

Bush said:

Our party is advocating restricting legal immigration as well. And I think that’s foolhardy beyond belief. There’s a way to reform the legal immigration system that would be a catalyst for sustained economic growth and we need it because our demography is going the wrong way. [Emphasis added]

There are quite a few people that have a larger megaphone if you will that seem either threatened by what they perceive to be a changing country that is less white perhaps… basically, there’s a concern that we’ve lost our way and immigrants are kind of easy to single out with vitriol. [Emphasis added]

There’s examples of cable news shows that talk about an illegal immigrant or a legal immigrant that commits an atrocious crime, murder, family loses their loved one and that seems to get a lot more attention than crime throughout America. [Emphasis added]

Since the late 1960’s, immigration to the U.S. has surged from some of the most impoverished and dangerous regions of the world, including Mexico, Central America, and the Middle East.

Legal immigration to the U.S. from Islamic nations, for example, including Afghanistan, Syria, Saudi Arabia, Iraq, and Somalia has skyrocketed since 2010. Immigration from Afghanistan to the U.S. has increased 84 percent in the last seven years.

Not a Jeb fan but I don't think he is advocating for open borders.

SEPTEMBER 25, 2018
The never-ending protest
By William J. Taylor
G.K. Chesterton wrote that people are quick to promote changes without thinking about the consequences of those changes. A good example of this is the current crop of kneelers, prominently playing in the NFL, ostensibly protesting widespread police brutality against blacks. Because they have no way of ever showing that their perceived injustice has been rectified, the unanticipated consequence of this is that they will be protesting forever.

The kneelers fail in two ways: their initial premise is false, and their chosen vehicle for change cannot withstand even a basic critical look. Much has been written about the former, and the kneelers and their supporters (which now include business-school elite Nike execs) clearly ignore it because to address it in any honest manner would be too difficult. They are incapable, at this point in their education, of building a logical sequence of thoughts to make a convincing argument for their side, or they are capable of that, yet they realize that all the facts necessary for such an argument point against them.

The news that authorities used a trailer to store 273 corpses offered a symbol for a crisis that affords no dignity to its victims

The first sign something was amiss came when an 18-wheeler lumbered into the dilapidated neighbourhood of Paseos del Valle on the outskirts of Guadalajara.

The truck itself was unremarkable – a white tractor unit pulling a refrigerated trailer emblazoned with a polar bear logo – but it came with a police escort. And as the massive vehicle pulled on to a muddy track between the last row of houses and a corn field, dogs across the neighbourhood began to bark wildly at the stench it released.

“It was a smell of death,” recalled Alejandro Espinosa, a hospital maintenance worker who lives nearby.

The truck was discovered by the public in the dilapidated neighbourhood of Paseos del Valle on the outskirts of Guadalajara.
A crowd quickly gathered, and when the truck became stuck in the mud, several youths pushed past the police and forced open the trailer doors.

Inside were scores of human bodies, wrapped in garbage bags, bound with duct tape and piled haphazardly on top of each other.

Local authorities eventually confirmed that 273 corpses had been dumped in the trailer after the relentless pace of violent crime left the local morgue without any space for new arrivals. For nearly two weeks, the truck had been drifting around the suburban hinterland of Mexico’s second city.

As the scandal escalated, Jalisco officials were forced to admit that they had been using stationary trailers to store bodies for at least two years.

The macabre discovery came on the country’s national holiday, and seemed to offer a damning comment on the state of the nation: in the 12 years since Mexico launched its militarised war on drugs, more than 200,000 people have died and another 35,000 gone missing

Brett Kavanaugh is presumed guilty by hearsay evidence...

I’m calling the age we are living through the Age of Presumption.

The most recent specific event in this age is the accusation of sexual assault being hurled through the media and social media against Judge Brett Kavanaugh, the nominee for the United States Supreme Court.

Those who say they believe his accuser are saying that Kavanaugh is guilty. This conclusion is based on a presumption: that because he is a man, he would be capable of such an act, therefore he must be guilty. Are those same people offended by the presumption that a violent act of terrorism is more likely carried out by a Muslim — the presumption in the first news accounts of the Oklahoma City bombing? Is it right for police to arrest African Americans more frequently than whites based on the presumption that blacks are more likely to perpetrate a crime? And is it right to presume that white people are all implicit racists? You must be very clairvoyant to be able to determine that someone else fits your presumption when you simply do not have proof.

Maybe we should all ask ourselves what our standards really are.

Do you personally believe that it is right or even productive to accuse a person whom you think may be guilty before you have proof to substantiate this accusation? Is it excusable based on the sad history of how women (or others) have been treated in this country (and certainly in countless other countries) when they were denied a fair hearing about abuse? Does that wrong justify sullying the reputation of a person who just might be innocent? As of now, we do not know if Kavanaugh is or isn’t guilty — so why jump to conclusions?

This is not new in history. For instance, the Alfred Dreyfus case, at the turn of the 20th century in France, was based on the politically expedient presumption that a Jew would be more likely to be guilty of treason. What courage the journalist Emile Zola had in shouting out the unfairness of this attitude. It was eventually proved that Dreyfus was, indeed, innocent.

For many centuries, if a sexual attack on a woman happened, the woman was blamed for having tempted the man. The presumption was false, but persisted across different cultures, and for millennia. Consider the presumptions that led to the McCarthy accusations. The Hollywood blacklist damaged the careers of many innocent and talented people, because if a writer had attended a Communist meeting in college, he or she was presumed to be an agent for Moscow during the Cold War.

These instances seem absurd to us today. We may like to think of ourselves as better than those holding such presumptions. But we are not better. Indeed, armed with the technological advances mankind has made, we can denounce others more rapidly, broadly and irresponsibly.

The assumption of innocence is not actually written in the Constitution; it springs from the sense that there is no boundary on the principle that we should deal with each other fairly. That should be the response to those who say no one has the right to a position on the Supreme Court, so a Senate confirmation hearing is not the same as a criminal trial, where the assumption of innocence would apply.

Whether in a criminal trial or a Senate hearing, the assumption of innocence is paramount. If we fall into the habit of presuming that what we think should be or want to happen justifies damaging a person who has not been proved culpable, then we risk having the same treatment directed at ourselves.

Maybe Americans need to abstain from spreading destructive judgments in the blink of an eye based on presumptions before the facts are known — and analyze their own motives for formerly doing so.
