The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", BreckHutHigh asked the members: "What about the long road trips with kids?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

>>Now, stop the video at the 12 sec mark. Ho many women do you see. Zero. How many men do you see. Also zero. In that crowd of several hundred, not one of these men elected to bring their family as they escaped the hell hole.<<

Right. Because that crowd of men aren't migrants. That's Speaker Johnson's press conference at the border. The men you see there are GOP Congressmen, various aides and assistants, and the press gaggle covering his speech. Not migrants. - albaby


========================

Ouch, I have to take the L on this one.

I still ask if you see border videos, to the extent they show them on your news sources, to notice the ratio of young men to families.
