[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]When you have to ask if it’s “reeeeaaaallllyyyy illegal” to mask up and refuse to ID yourself and cowardly snatch people off the street to make a quota, you also forfeit your right to lecture people on what’s immoral or unethical.[/quote]

+1 why aren’t you ballyhooing about all the white collar criminals, who were just pardoned by the felon and owe near a billion to state, local, and companies?

How can a person who picked fruit or drove vans, but didn’t have the correct forms be worse than these guys who the felon pardoned, and wiped out their restitution????? Please explain:

Trevor Milton, an electric-truck company owner, who had been convicted of securities fraud and wire fraud in 2023 and sentenced to four years in prison. He was ordered to pay $676m in restitution.

Ross William Ulbricht, the founder of Silk Road, an online marketplace that sold illegal drugs such as cocaine and heroin. Ulbricht had been convicted of aiding and abetting the distribution of drugs over the internet, continuing criminal enterprise, computer hacking conspiracy, and money laundering conspiracy. He had been sentenced to life in prison. (Ulbricht’s pardon fulfilled a Trump campaign promise.) Ulbricht was ordered to pay almost $184m.

HDR Global Trading Limited, operator of a cryptocurrency exchange that had been ordered to pay a $100m fine for violating the Bank Secrecy Act’s anti-money laundering provisions.

Lawrence Duran, owner of American Therapeutic Corp, a Miami-area mental health company, convicted of multiple counts related to healthcare fraud; Duran was sentenced to 50 years in prison and $87.5m in restitution.[/quote]

I don’t understand why you’re so convinced we support those pardons.  I think they’re outrageous and offensive to the rule of law.  I also want most people in the country unlawfully to be deported.  Those two things are entirely compatible. [/quote]

You voted for Trump.  You implicitly support those pardons through your silence outside of an anonymous message board.  You cannot thread that needle without publicly condemning Trump and getting on the phone to your elected representatives and demanding Trump change his ways.[/quote]

I don’t vote for Trump. I’ve never voted republican in my life.[/quote]
