[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We can debate all day long how many illegals there are, but can we agree that those who are illegal, should be deported? [/quote]

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

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 [u]proof[/u] that they are not only going after illegal immigrants, and that this is bad?

[/quote] Well, this would highly fact specific. But if they entered illegally (so already broke immigration law), and are working the process to extend their stay, then they can be detained, courthouse or wherever. The original infraction is the problem. [/quote]

It is true that people who have active immigration cases don't get to stop the clock on deportation or whatever, but going after the people who are complying with the requirements of those cases is a poor use of resources if the idea is to prioritize those who present a threat to public safety or national security. 94% of the people currently in detention are coded as presenting 0 threat, but we're paying for-profit corporations millions of dollars to keep them there, while adding to the national debt. [/quote] Oh please, poor use of resources ? If they didn’t waste it on this, it would be something else. Biden let in millions and just cut them loose. The pendulum went too far “left.” And now you’re seeing the opposite reaction, which some may see as too far “right”, but it is what people voted for. It was the main issue in the election. I’m sure the next Dem president will reverse and we can repeat the whole process.[/quote]
