Deny the Truth and Push your Agenda

By now most of the U.S. had read the "article" written on Deadspin by Laura Wagner, a makeshift "reporter".  If you have not the article it can be found here.  The "article" entitled, "Don't Doubt What You Saw With You Own Eyes", in a nutshell tells anyone who saw the full, unedited video they should ignore it and stay to true the misconceptions they were fed; to ignore the truth.  My response to her "article" is the remainder of this blog post.

My response on Deadspin (edited for some errors):

"So, basically, lie to yourself and support your confirmation bias, even when the full video provides information completely to the contrary. You leftists are truly, sincerely, and completely brain-dead. It has gotten to the point you are so caught up in your own lies and wish for Utopia you cannot even navigate through your own sea of hypocrisy, and in most cases you don’t even care to. You will simply call someone an “ist”, “ism” or “phobe” when unable to argue points mad which factually contradict your argument. For you, the world is “white bad”; “man bad”; “Christian bad”. You also (hypocritically, no doubt), scream “ACCEPTANCE!” from the rooftops, yet, you threaten or physically assault anyone who doesn’t agree with you while vandalizing their property or the property of others.  "PAY MORE TAXES!" Which comes from the ones who avoid paying taxes or pay none at all.

These kids were provoked. They were provoked by the idiotic “black Israelites”, a truly racist, homophobic, and radical group. They were also provoked by Nathan Philips, the Native American who happens to be a veteran, who is somehow relieved of his immaturity and fault in this matter due to his race and military status (which turns out to be false). The same can be said for the “black Israelites” due to their race (as we do not know their military statuses). 

The only reason the kids are the target are due to them supporting Trump, and the left’s notion president Trump is a racist. They [the left] are using this event as a platform to push their agenda, and it doesn’t matter to them these are innocent minors who stood their ground in the face of ignorance. If these boys would have been wearing “the Pussyhat” or apparel which supported a democratic candidate, they would never have been approached by Philips. They would have, however, had to deal with the “black Israelites” as they verbally assault anyone who passes who is not “black”.

Your attempts to label anything Trump - even if it means ignoring fact - is only driving the divide deeper in the country. And in all honesty, I believe it is exactly what you aim to do. You want to push every notion possible to divide the people. From “Hands Up, Don’t Shoot”, to the pulling off of hijabs, to lighting churches on fire, to spray painting swastikas and slogans, to this you are falsifying information and purposefully misguiding the public to cause civil unrest. You don’t want peace. You want war. You want war abroad, and even worse you want it at home."

I stand behind these kids and behind president Trump.  I stand behind my nation and our values.  I stand with you wearing a red hat in the face of waving a red flag.  To all of those who are standing with the Constitution in-hand, I am with you.  Stay strong.  Stick together.  Trust in God.    

Immigration: truths and falsehoods

I am simply disgusted by the way people are portraying the issue with illegal immigrants and asylum-seekers in the United States. The overwhelming majority of these people have absolutely zero insight as to the truth of the matter or immigration issues in general.

For the past 5 years I have been dealing with immigration problems caused by an issue between my wife and her ex-fiance, who got her involved in a fraudulent claim. For the most part, this issue results in a permanent ban from the United States for life if an immigration judge rules the case as fraudulent even thought it is a non-violent, non-criminal issue.

I have spent thousands upon thousands of dollars fighting this case, and there is currently no end in sight. This is our second time applying for her entry - first on a fiance visa, now on a marriage visa - and she will most likely be rejected, again, and we will have to file an appeal. We're looking at roughly 2 more years of this mess, and at the end it could still be a denial. To add to this we have a beautiful 1.5 year old daughter who is a U.S. citizen through me. Our only solution at the current time is to sporadically stay in Canada so we can be together, and other times we are separated with me in the U.S. and my wife and daughter in Armenia (~6,000 miles apart). Needless to say the emotional and financial burden this causes is astronomical.

When we filed the first case we had the option to attempt to conceal this issue or be upfront and honest with the U.S. government - we chose to be honest and follow all LEGAL channels to end this misery. We didn't attempt to enter illegally. We didn't try to circumvent the system. We followed the law, as it is the moral thing to do. There are many ways we could have "gotten around" the problem, but we chose honesty.

So, please, explain to be how a person in my situation should be circumvented by those attempting to enter illegally. Explain to me how the life of my daughter - a U.S. citizen - does not take precedence over non-citizens. Explain to me why my petition should take a backseat to those of a non-citizen. While all of you are spreading falsities about the situation at the border and fighting for illegal immigrants, you are neglecting your fellow American and making our lives more complicated as the focus is being taken off of those who chose to do the right thing, and placed on those who chose do the wrong thing. You are the ones costing us thousands of dollars. You are the ones causing us so many tears. You are the one dismantling our families.

It is the job of every nation to look our for its citizenry before others. It's too bad there are so many of you who fail to see this because you are too busy virtue-signalling to each other.
