That was a singular event occurring in one location. The invasion of our country is occurring everyday in every state.

Actually, the National Emergency is ILLEGAL WEAPONS!
Fatal shooting at Illinois warehouse erupted during a meeting in which suspect was fired, police say. He carried a gun illegally.

Is there a law against possession of a firearm? Is there a law against illegal entry into our country? The emergency is that we have a government and political elite that enforce laws that they like and disregard the others. That is not justice. PO2 Robert M.

LTC (Join to see) - Yes there are laws DICTATING the possession of a firearm, hence, he was in possession of AN ILLEGAL FIREARM. The crime is that we loose TOO MANY people, daily, due to illegal firearms. I own my weapons legally. Another National Emergency is that 19 VETERANS A DAY COMMIT SUICIDE.

I’m not following the logic here or your position on POTUS and the wall. // Additional; it has been reported that the shooter purchased the firearm legally. He passed a background check and was allowed to purchase the weapon. https://www.pressherald.com/2019/02/16/police-identify-5-workers-killed-in-aurora-attack/ PO2 Robert M.

Look at Chicago's numbers any weekend. That's also an emergency.

Apparently there is no emergency there. The Left has been running Chicago for decades and this is what they allow to happen. If the citizens of Chicago actually gave a flying patootie about it, it wouldn't be happening.

Chicago is the same as every major city in America run by Democrats. High payed
uncaring government and I don't care as long as I get mine scared population, liberal Judges that make their own rules, and Police that is only trying to survive.

This is not a national emergency this is a City of Chicago issue. You can ban guns and make the illegal to possess, and the killing of innocent lives will continue because criminals do not obey the law. Good citizens, who obey the law are left defenseless.

The surge of illegal immigrants from Mexico is a National problem. I have no issues with immigrants applying for citizenship and taking classes, and background checks to become a legal citizen. But the reality is normally not the case. I support the building of the wall. This my view only not speaking to stir up resentment.

There is no "surge."
Yes, we need Congress to act and pass a comprehensive immigration bill. It is necessary but it is not an emergency!
