[quote=Anonymous][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?

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.[/quote]

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.  [/quote]

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

Do you base your character and morals on those of the people around you?  [/quote]
