Immigrants are detained appearing in court for routine immigration hearings. What else are they supposed to do? They’re appearing regularly as asked.
You didn’t answer the question, if they’re here illegally should they be deported ? It’s not a trick question.


I did above. Once again, "sure."

Now your turn. Can we agree that ICE going to courthouses where legal immigrants are going through the normal process and yet still being abducted by ICE is proof that they are not only going after illegal immigrants, and that this is bad?



They are not legal immigrants. There is no specific definition of 'illegal immigrant' but they are included in nearly every count.
When they entered the country, they did not have a visa, but the government let them in anyway. This did not give them legal status, and they were always in limbo subject to government withdrawing its protection.


We could be humane about it, though. If we set up a legal process for them to move through, in an attempt to gain some sort of authorized status, we shouldn't be pulling it out from under their feet.

Immigration enforcement is necessary. How we do it reflects on our morals and character, not theirs.


What does it reveal about their character that they made a deliberate choice to break immigration laws?


Desperation. And this is especially true for anyone coming through the Darien pass.

What does it reveal about your character that you make a deliberate choice to speed on the highway? Nothing, right? If I had a goal of living in the US I would see immigration laws as an arbitrary, artificial impediment the way speeding laws are. Who exactly is harmed by my living in the United States? The entire “oh you broke the law” discussion is so stupid because all of us break these types of laws all the time if it serves our purposes. It’s up to the government to come up with a justifiable and effective enforcement scheme.

Do you base your character and morals on those of the people around you?

They WILL be released, you know, because they are legal. In the meantime, Kristi Noem endangered a child who came home to an empty house, endangered a family and neighborhood by leaving a car running, traumatized a five-year-old, and is terrorizing a family who is here legally. Our grandchildren will be paying the legal fees and therapy bills through their taxes.


Asylum seekers who enter illegally are supposed to be detained while their claim is processed. Biden refused to follow the law. He turned asylum into a free-for-all for all of the world’s economic migrants.

Many people who aspire to live in this country follow our immigration laws. A family I know who are legal immigrants/naturalized citizens voted for Trump, because they were ticked off they had to wait to come here, pay fees, go through health screenings, etc. to come here while Biden was letting the whole world enter illegally at our border.

Apparently, you believe we should be a country with open borders and there are no harms to society from mass illegal immigration. Keep pushing these policies and see how you lose to Vance or another Republican you deem unacceptable in 2028.

the government let them in under a myriad of reasons, all legal. If they are seeking asylum etc, then they are in the system and not here illegally, no matter ho much people like you want to claim otherwise. Just because they are here legally, under intenrational law, doesn't mean they can work legally, or take advantage of US social services - they can't. But that doesn't stop GOP business owners from hiring them anyhow.

There is a difference between someone 'sneaking' over the border and someone who has presented themselves at a point of entry. can we at least agree on that point, or is your assertion that unless someone had a visa when they came, they are an illegal?

No, it wasn't a free for all. But keep going on about it while the civil rights of every American are being eroded under this banner.

Yes, anyone who is inadmissible, I view as illegal immigrants. Asylum is a scam abused by economic migrants.

It doesn’t reveal that they deserve to be tortured to death. For real. But the fact that you think it does suggest you are irredeemable and the worst kind of human.

Why was it okay for white people’s ancestors to be “economic migrants”? Yes, the law is different now, but is it your view that the law should never have allowed those white people to come here to begin with?

So process them in accordance with international law, and if they don’t meet the standard, send them back.

It really baffles me how much the “law and order” people are willing to set aside both law and order if it involves brown people or people standing up for the Constitution. You might want to consider if you’re the baddies after all. Take some time, because I’m sure it will be one of those “ego destroying” moments for you.

Trump promised the removal of violence illegal criminals. Instead he has created a violent criminal organization to terrorize Americans citizens.

Now US citizens can not walk the street without the threat of violence, kidnapping, seizure of property and murder from the republican party’s gestapo.

So Trump is going to strike Iran? I do not understand why he thinks it would be popular to attack the Iranian protesters?
