California this week further expanded free health coverage to include all undocumented immigrants.

It's late and I'm tired from moving 3/4 of the way across the country, but Illegal immigrants can serve in the US armed forces? Or maybe he was one of the in-country translator badasses that made it out alive?

I believe they have to have a green card.

But even that has waivers in time of need.

 

[WinoBlues]

Definitely know more about this subject than you.

What does a green card have to do with anything?

Great, being an expert, read the question I was replying to, then correct my answer please.

Edit: My error - I mistakenly thought your 'greencard' question was re an answer I gave someone else..

 

[WinoBlues]

I’m not sure what you’re arguing. What does a green card have to do with anything?

Yes, I am a vet. Definitely know more about this subject than you.

I am arguing that if an immigrant wishes to serve our country they should be allowed to become a citizen, after vetting of course.

Greencard - 'I know vets w/green cards that have served in Iraq.' Was a statement of fact. Not a question or an argument.

Not sure what you are questioning.

 

[WinoBlues]

Your “answer” was irrelevant to anything that I stated.

Yawn - read the edit....

 

[WinoBlues]

Yawn… you made the same irrelevant comment in your very next post.

You win. You're the winner.

I feel like I'm arguing with some dude that dresses in realtree to scream at the monitor all day.

But I will say, I agree that the vast majority of illegals are coming here for economic reasons. And not political.

Is it just me or did @Kelvin Diaz jump on here back in November and make 3 stupid post on this thread??

I disagree, unless it's infantry or are otherwise wounded in combat. Most people in the military aren't "risking their lives" any more than the average American who commutes to work daily. There are also plenty of people in the military who hate America.

So, let me get this straight. If you are in the infantry you deserve to become an American Citizen. If you are wounded in combat, you deserve to. However, the rest of the military doesn't deserve to be an American Citizen?

And you say you served in the military? Really? How long? What branch?

I ask because I just don't believe you would have that type of attitude if you had served and seen what ALL military people have to go through.

How did this go from California expanding coverage to where we are now. Suggest we stop hijacking threads.
