    No, Trump won the election because he alienated people with fairy tale promises, like Mexico building the wall, or keeping Muslims from Saudi Arabia or Syria from traveling here. He played off of peoples fear, angst, hostility and paranoia. He painted a Dystopian version of America, that's what the narrative of the RNC Convention was about. I've watched these elections play out before. Am I frustrated? Yes, but its not because Hillary lost. It's because its as clear as day why Trump won, yet you guys rather spin it as, "issues that the average typical American is concerned about."

    No he did not. He talked about unfair trade agreements, enforcing EXISTING immigration laws, and creating a business friendly environment to promote job and economic growth.

    Face it, democrats ideas are dead ends.

    No one should have assault reasons, there's simply no logical reason to own one. But I'm not going to derail the thread with responsible gun control.

    Just showing the liberal hypocrisy and paranoia when it comes to their own countrymen, yet will trust Syrian rebels from a dirt box half way across the globe who are in the process of DESTROYING other countries that have welcomed them. Take a look at Britain, Sweden and Germany. Come out from la-la land and look at the REALITY of the situation.

    LOL given that Trump was at first was for raids and the dragging away of members of 11 millions households by a federal deporting force why the hell would the children of such households not be concern and upset with a Trump win to the point that they could used counseling?

    Trump had declared during his campaign that 11 millions households are fair game to have their doors broken down in the middle of the night and the parents and in some cases the children drag away their fears for the future are not irrational.

    That is not your decision to make for another person.

    They should have thought about that before breaking OUR laws.

    Deportation should never be an option. That's as ugly as locking up political opponents. They need to be restructured, but we need those sanctuary cities. Do I need to pull up countless footage of Trump asking alienated supporters who will build the wall?

    If people think a deportation force is going to make America look intimidating to the rest of the world, they are mistaken. It's only going to rip people away from having a second chance at making it in life.

    Mass immigration is continuing to claim victims in Sweden. Murder, assaults and rape have become everyday occurrences in this small country, with a population just short of ten million, which last year opened its doors to almost 163,000 immigrants. The latest victim is 22-year-old Alexandra Mezher. She was stabbed to death last week by a so-called unaccompanied refugee child at the asylum house where she worked.

    Although the massive influx of asylum seekers has decreased drastically since January 4, when Sweden implemented border controls on the Swedish/Danish border, the people who are already here pose a giant problem to municipalities, police and citizens. The police are fighting a losing battle against street crime, as well as daily incidents at asylum houses – general disturbances that include fights, rapes and threats.

    The asylum houses are in a state of anarchy. On January 27, police were dispatched to a home for teenagers in Lindås, where a riot had erupted. Policeman Johan Nilsson told the local paper, Barometern:

    "One [of the youths] was refused when he tried to buy candy, and got angry with the staff. He gathered some 15 friends, and the staff was forced to lock themselves in while the mob smashed windows and other things. The instigator, supposedly 16 years old, is suspected of having started the riot, and another one is suspected of making unlawful threats and of violent rioting."

    That suspect was later released, after producing a document that stated he was under 15, and thus not criminally responsible.

    Another, more serious incident occurred at the asylum house Signalisten in Västerås on January 20. Ten policemen arrived at the facility due to reports of the repeated rape of a 10-year-old boy. The policemen were met by a large mob standing in a corridor, shouting and shaking their fists. The situation escalated to the point where the police were forced to flee for their lives. One of the officers later wrote in his report that it was only due to the presence of a police dog handler that he and his colleagues were able to escape:

    "Even more people appeared behind us. I was mentally prepared to fight for my life. We were 10 police officers in a narrow corridor. And I heard someone yell that there is an emergency exit. I felt that we could easily have been outmaneuvered, considering the environment and the number of counterparties."

    The policeman also wrote in his report that he hoped for more training in the future, on "how to handle crowds in confined spaces."

    That the Swedish police are no longer able to do their duty is evident. National Police Commissioner Dan Eliasson recently demanded 2,500 more officers and 1,600 more civilian employees for the police, to handle the heightened terror threat and the increased influx of refugees. Considering the length of time needed to train policemen, it will probably be a while before the police can increase its numbers. Eliasson also demanded a budget increase of between 1.8 and 2.8 billion kronor ($214 million - $332 million), because the "migrant situation means a significantly higher workload for the police."

    He identified at border controls and asylum houses as especially in need of greater resources, all over the country: "We need to be there often, there are fights and disturbances."

    On January 26, what everyone had been dreading finally happened. The police arrived at an asylum house for "unaccompanied refugee children" in Mölndal early in the morning, after reports of a knife fight. By the time they arrived, it was too late. Asylum house employee Alexandra Mezher lay bleeding on the floor, stabbed by one of the "children" she cared for. She died in hospital a few hours later.

    The police arrested a person claiming to be a 15-year-old from Somalia on suspicion of murder, as well as the attempted murder of one of the youths who allegedly tried to intervene. He was later remanded. According to the local daily, GT, the staff had previously warned on several occasions that the suspect had psychiatric problems.

    The Mezher family are Lebanese Christians who fled the violence in Lebanon 25 years ago. Alexandra's mother, Chimene Mezher, told the British paper, The Daily Mail:

    "We left Lebanon to escape the civil war, the violence and the danger. We came to Sweden where it was safe, to start our family. But it is not safe any more. ... And I just want to know why... why Alexandra? She wanted to help them, but they did this. I just want answers."

    Chimene Mezher now accuses Swedish politicians of murdering her daughter. The dramatic recent population increase in Mölndal, a suburb of Gothenburg, has scared many of the 60,000 residents. In less than a year, 8,000 asylum seekers have moved in -- half of whom are so-called "unaccompanied refugee children."

    Why?? That's like a "What is Aleppo?" response. No one who upholds American values believes ICE should be going door to door, at midnight, ripping people out from wherever they are, and send them off on a train back to Mexico. The amount of time, and energy put into putting together a deportation force, could be actually used toward creating pathways to naturalization for those here illegally.

    That is most likely NOT going to happen anyways. However, if they are picked up for whatever, then yes, they should be deported.

    Teaching respect and no fear for a man who in his statements wish to drag them and their parents to the airport and put them on a plane to countries they have little or no ties to would be a hard hard task for any teacher.

    And free health care, free college, free..... Oh wait, you said Trump, not Hillary. My mistake.

    The average American who isn't in some left-wing bubble is concerned about many things that people inside the bubble don't worry about. The Democratic Party thought it could just ignore these Americans and rely solely on their own coalition . They were wrong.

    The kids should have thought about it before their parents either brought them over or concept them here?????

    The subject of this thread is should the school system be offering them counseling and emotional support not their parents.

    Average Americans who don't live in progressive bubble areas care about things that people inside the bubble don't care about. The Democratic Party thought it could ignore these Americans. They were wrong.

    Mexico has every bit of the natural resources the USA has. Mexico is an outhouse because they don't support the rule of law. So tell me why I should I feel compassionate to a person that does not support the rule of our laws? I have zero problem with immigration but don't bring the reason your country sucks here. Do it the right way and I will have your back. If you choose forceable entry to come to my country then suffer the consequences when you get caught.

    And free health care, and free college, and free..... oh wait, those were the two main Democratic Party candidates. My mistake.

    Average, real Americans who are not in a progressive bubble of an environment have concerns that people inside the bubble do not have (for political reasons). The Democratic Party thought it could ignore these voters. They were wrong.

    That's merely your opinion. A lot of people have plenty of logical reasons to own one.

    Deportation is what the law requires. Literally everything you're advocating for in this post is against our law.

    Mexico is Mexico because of the people not the geography. When they come here they bring their backward culture with them. Then they try to make the U.S. just like home.

    Would your logic also apply to sending Jews back to Israel?
