I guess these guys don’t see a big threat from the erratic policies of Trump administration? I’d worried that one stupid tweet would end the legal status of this group and they would all become targets of the new American gestapo.
Cry harder
Normal person: posts a well reasoned comment clearly supported by what’s happening in this country lately
MAGAt nutcases: CRY HARDER LIB
They already are. Kristi Noem pulled their protected status and claimed it was safe for them go back when it clearly is not. Our own State Department tells us to not go to Burma to face conditions like the below:
“ Many of the Burmese nationals protected by TPS are long-suffering Christians. Burma’s junta has a strong streak of Buddhist nationalism. As a result, the junta has targeted Christians as enemies of the state, hitting them with airstrikes and burning their villages. Since the 2021 coup, more than a hundred Christian religious buildings and churches have been destroyed in Chin state alone. The junta has also arrested, indefinitely detained and shot pastors and aid workers helping civilians — the killing and mutilating of Baptist pastor Cung Biak Hum is a stark example. Returning Burmese nationals who have fled junta violence, whose churches were shelled and whose pastors were targeted is unconscionable. It places them directly in the path of an anti-Christian military government that is fighting a conflict that is worsening not easing.”
Don’t sell out Burma’s persecuted Christians and activists

American Christians complain about persecution for having to bake a cake for a gay person.
Burmese Christians face literal death for their faith.
Mike, we should cry harder.
Mike D. There is a real danger here that the first big conference will draw ICE enforcement for people that entered the country legally and now have lost protected status.
From your response, I can guess there are plenty of people out there that would be happy to narc on them…
Not to single these guys out, but this will be another shining example of how this church and all churches keep receiving the amenities for free that we taxpayers subsidize for them; fire protection, police protection roads to drive to their place, etc. etc. It’s time to tax churches. Even their pastors homes are exempt from property tax. Had enough? I have.
Terry you don’t subsidize anyone.
Terry +1.
So how about taxing the billion-dollar “nonprofit” hospitals, colleges, and universities; union, American Legion and VFW halls; Scottish Rite Cathedral; Masonic, Moose, Elks, and every other kind of social lodge?
