America is the most generous country on the planet. We welcome people who open doors, provide opportunities and seek a better life. But don't make any mistakes – this country is homes, not doormats. If you as a guest, start destroying the place, don't be surprised if we show you the door.
Mahmoud Khalil is just that – a guest. He is the green card holder who led violent and anti-Semitic protests at Columbia University. Labeling what he did as merely “protest” eases the complete hatred of Jews and Western civilizations that he supported during a weeks-long standoff.
Green card holders are not entitled to the same protection as citizens.
The left is criticized President Trump's decision to revoke Halil's green card status as an infringement of his rights, dismissing the important fact that Halil is not a citizen.
The residents are not citizens
Green cards are not birthrights. It's a privilege. This is a golden ticket invitation to live and work in the United States. But like Willie Wonka's chocolate factory, its tickets come with terms of use. If you break the rules, you're out. It's not a passport. It's not citizenship. It's like a revocable lease.
Imagine you are handing over keys to a magnificent property. The owner will sit at the table, pour you a glass of wine, “Stay as much as you like. Respect the rules of the house.” Still, rather than showing gratitude, he will start to destroy the windows, tear the walls, and whisper to others. “This place is terrible. We have to destroy it.”
How long does it take for the owner to snatch those keys from your hand? And who opposes in their righteous minds? If you threaten to burn the guest wing, you will be abandoned and the owner will be right to do so.
Deportation is legal
Today we sow green card owners – our home guests – spit out hatred and threaten the very foundations of the country that has incorporated them.
The left has his hands squeezed, claiming that these guests have a “right” to do all of them. This is simply not true. Green card holders are legal permanent residents, not citizens. In fact, back in 1893, The Supreme Court ruled Congress was free to expel non-citizens. National sovereignty means having the power to decide who will come to our home. If someone is not respectful, the Supreme Court ruled that we can drive them out.
Let's be clear. Deporting Mahmoud Khalil is not a violation of his rights. He does not have the same protections as American citizens. We opened the door and allowed millions of people to pursue their dreams in America. But there is hope for that welcome. Don't destroy what you were invited to. You come to my house and don't start swinging the foundation hammer. You don't light the roof. And when you show the exit, you certainly can't claim the victim.
