Whole heartedly agree. Like everything liberals take it too far. Having a secure border shouldn’t be a controversial, partisan take.

Oh well if the agents say it, it must be true! We're not allowed to dispute that


fallacy of relevance.

No where did I say it couldn’t be disputed in court, but just because an accused says he is innocent doesn’t mean I have to believe him based only on his word or the word of the left. His word is no more objective than ICE’s.

It's not fallacy of relevance at all. It's pointing out that the officers would have a very compelling reason to embellish the details if they did in fact illegally detain someone. Why should the weight of their words mean any more than the guy who's proven to be a citizen?

Cute trick trying to paint it as "the words of the left" though. Is any dispute of an encounter with an officer a leftist trait? If an officer says you were slurring your words and smelled like liquor then you'd be a leftist to argue against that?

It is also "within their rights" for DHS to do a deep dive on the owners/employees to find a reason to revoke their visas or whatever. I suspect this decision will have negative consequences for Brother's Food Mart.


Feds already trued that. Owners were found not guilty

Immigration law as a whole is administrative. Would be better for everyone if it got moved under federal district courts.


“Illegal” implies a criminal issue.

Whatever ICE is doing doesn’t change the fact that the entire immigration system is FUBAR and needs a complete rebuild

I don't know how Orleans and Jefferson fund their schools, but most places fund it based on property taxes.


How does one go about buying an immovable, such as property without a Social Security number? By committing fraud?

You have just boarded the crazy train here. Have you seen the docket loads of our districts? This would break out federal judicial. And why waste Article III judges for what is described by you as an administrative matter. Keep it with the immigration appeal process, but hire more of these judges to clear the clutter.

Y'all people do realize the reason ICE has to be so aggressive is that America is currently under siege by millions of illegals let loose here by Biden, right?


There is no nice way of doing this EFFECTIVELY.


If you oppose what ice is doing then you don't believe America should have borders. Which is insane.

Just because they might pay property tax on something they own or indirectly through renting, doesn't mean they are covering the costs for the kids schooling.

$1000 in in taxes doesn't do much for the 12-15k the district spends per student. Factor in that illegals live in crowed households and most are child bearing age, they are taking way more out of the system than the paltry property taxes. One family of 4 kids could easily cost the district $60k per household.

Progressive voters do not care. They aren't the ones paying the majority of the taxes. Their enemies are doing that.

Juan in Kenner who's been there since 2005 working construction 




I have no problem with Juan staying and working. Let's see his federal income tax filings for the last five years. If he is contributing like every other working American then we can consider him staying.

Otherwise get the frick out because you have been leaching form our system and lowering wages.

I thought Brothers all closed down. They've had major issues with staying open due to the shady way they conduct business.


I stopped going to that one years ago because of how bad the service always was and the food always tasted old.
