Why I voted yes, our boarders are not secure, they're already here just waiting for more soldiers to rally with 'em. You wait and see, they're already here just waiting for more to come and when they think the time is right, they'll strike.

Because the S. Border is wide open for anyone to get thru. And they have caught just a few.

Belinda Kitchen

Yes cause if it happened over there it will happen over here . Just afraid that since we are helping in other wars that we won't get help that we need when our time has come.

Yes, at least long enough to destroy Biden's Poppy Plantations.

HelenHighwater

But only until all our people, allies, and Afghans who helped us are safely evacuated. Then our military should get out and never look back.

Max

Yes, at least long enough to destroy Biden's Poppy Plantations that he is protecting.

Biden is sticking firmly to an Aug. 31 withdrawal deadline, though some have called for an extended military mission to secure more evacuations of Americans and friendly Afghans.
