[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don't mind strict immigration enforcement.  I DO mind our government being jackbooted thugs about it.  Believe it or don't, strict enforcement of immigration laws and humane treatment of illegals are not mutually exclusive.  It's sickeningly obvious that to the people who support this adminiatration's actions, treating illegals like they don't deserve basic human rights is a feature, not a bug.

I'm having trouble understanding your position. What are you actually proposing?

And do you realize that people who are denied entry for whatever reason can (and often do) just turn around and try to get in again the next day?

What is your definition of "humane treatment"? Do you realize that if there was absolutely no incentive to not try to do something illegal, you'd have literally half of the world lining up on the doorstep within a few weeks? You think anyone would want to live in India or China when they can live in the States? That's a couple of billion people right there.

I'm a legal immigrant. You can add me to the list that would have just walked in, if there were no consequences. I mean, why not? Why did I bother going through the application process, all the invasive questions, health screens and vaccine boosters, etc? I'd never break the rules so I may as well have just come here as a tourist and stayed. Right? Is that what you're saying? I don't get it.[/quote]

Is it that hard to understand the concept of "humane treatment"?  Sheesh. Let's talk about the bare minimum that we accord even animals in shelters -- and not taking any babies away.  [/quote]
