Where do you take them when they are rounded up? |
In many-many countries, including in European countries, it is mandatory to carry a government-issued ID card at all times. This has never been an issue for the public. It is also common sense. |
Wherever the process in place now dictates. |
Send them back like we do today. |
To the migrant shelters and then to the planes to send them back. |
No European country requires citizens to carry ID cards at all times, but some countries have ID card requirements for certain situations: |
Once someone is hauled off, whether they are "legal" or not is irrelevant. |
What a waste of time and money. No one wants to pay for that. That will cost a fortune and cost even more in decimating local economies, communities, businesses and schools districts. What is the point? It sounds like a lose lose. |
Uh, if there are records, then that means they are in the system, likely awaiting an asylum hearing. That would mean said person is playing by the rules. Why should they be rounded up and moved out of the country if they are going through the legal process? |
Russia? Where else? This isn't my experience at all. |
So if we are already doing it today, in greater numbers than happened during the Trump administration, then what is all the fearmongering around the issue? |
Sometimes the legal process ends with a removal order. Not all asylum claims are valid. Everyone who enters and didn't just successfully hide upon arrival has a record of entry. |
You mean the migrant shelters that Trump told the GOP not to fund with the now-killed bi-partisan immigration reform bill? |
Because they are the low hanging fruit and easier to find. It’s all optics, they just need to “look” like they are doing something. |
Republicans benefit from pretending Biden does nothing about illegal immigration. For some reason Democrats think it is good for people to think they're doing everything always for illegal immigrants and to protect them. Neither position reflects the actual truth of immigration in this country, or necessarily what the majority of Americans even want. |
