Trump Withdraws U.S. From UN Migrant And Refugee Compact
« on: December 03, 2017, 05:44:18 pm »
Continuing his “America First” approach to foreign policy, President Donald Trump has pulled the U.S. out of a United Nations compact seeking global cooperation to protect the safety and rights of refugees and migrants.

Trump’s decision to end America’s “participation in the Global Compact on Migration” was disclosed on Saturday by the U.S. Mission to the U.N.

Nikki Haley, the U.S. ambassador to the U.N., explained in a statement that the pact’s “global approach” was “simply not compatible with U.S. sovereignty.”

"Our decisions on immigration policies must always be made by Americans and Americans alone. We will decide how best to control our borders and who will be allowed to enter our country,” Haley said.

Well, some people like to change their avatars every day or so and we couldn't do it for a couple of weeks.

Mine is really ugly now but I like the Blue Guy from The Orville.  He has a lot of fun once a year.

A much better move would be to just remove us from the useless UN entirely!

I figured you were going to say, "says the guy with Daffy Duck as an avatar." That Blue Guy sure is ugly.

No! We have a veto, image all the trouble the UN could start without us there. Now getting
the UN out of the US I am all in favor of.

I agree.  But now going along with all their idiotic resolutions is a start.

I've long held that we have just 1 reason to be part of the UN.

To vote NO on whatever they want to do.

It is the largest Section 8 facility in the United States.   We should evict every one and blow the shit up.

   Considering the Avatar Question, I do miss the pretty women BUT Rita was a damn good Dog and it's the season to change, set Markers. 
   On Christmas Day I will use the bombing of Hanoi and Haiphong by My 96th BS, those were good times, indeed.

Keep Rita.  I like her.  Maybe put a Christmas bow on her.  The constant women thing was totally boring, but maybe that's just me.

   Your comments are down right sacrilegious and bordering on blasphemy @Emjay, concerning my Avatar Choice and that's why I love you, it's always a challenge.

Agreed.  This was an excellent decision! :tree3:
Romans 12:16-21

Live in harmony with one another; do not be haughty, but associate with the lowly, do not claim to be wiser than you are.  Do not repay anyone evil for evil, but take thought for what is noble in the sight of all.  If it is possible, so far as it depends on you, live peaceably with all…do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good.
