Over my lifetime I have been flexible and adaptable and it has helped tremendously in dealing with the hardships that I have encountered. However, being flexible and adaptable when it comes to the sovereignty of this country is not an option.
Legal immigration into this country is one thing; finding a loophole under the guise of asylum is quite another. Invasion is taking place and I don't see a whole lot of room for flexibility or adaptation - that would be mere surrender.
I'm not suggesting that we compromise on illegal immigration. In fact, I have seen this as one of our top few serious problems for many years and have always spoken out and done what I can to encourage our government enforce our laws.
I am saying that when someone reduces complex problems to simple, black and white, bumper-sticker type thoughts, and becomes incapable of even considering other points of view - not accepting them necessarily, but understanding them and possibly admitting that there are other legitimate ideas and beliefs, that is a serious problem. You can't argue with a person like that. Committed leftists are like that - introducing facts, logic and reason have absolutely no effect on them and they have a simplistic, rote, memorized answer for every counterpoint. They have become so full of hubris that they KNOW they are the only ones who are correct ad everyone else is wrong.
(And, I'm clearly not talking about you.)
