People accuse me of this all the time but no one can find a shred of evidence that supports this.

My apologies then. See how easy it is to shrug off an unwarranted accusation? Relay this to your housekeeper.

but your method of proving she's legal is seriously flawed.

I've never tried to prove she's legal. I honestly don't care. She's a very, very nice lady with three daughters and a husband. She's not a threat to anyone.

I've never tried to prove the citizenship status of anyone I know ever. That's just not something I have the bandwidth for.

SHES STAYING INSIDE HER HOME BECAUSE SHE FEELS UNSAFE OF ICE!
A legal would be so damn happy to show credentials, she'd wear it on a lanyard around her neck!

Very naive take. It's like when someone gets pulled over for speeding, and they end up with a seatbelt ticket, expired brake tag ticket, etc. on top of the speeding ticket. LEO have a way of finding reasons to punish or detain people they want to punish or detain.

The blind trust extended to the government here is really concerning, especially considering the government's track record.

Holy shite, that's what ICE is doing! No wonder you are screeching!

I don't consider the government detaining people who are not committing crimes to be protecting anyone.

You ARE on here advocating that immigration law be ignored / resisted.

quote:

---

What are you referencing? I don't care how anyone protects themselves from actual threats.

---

I'm referencing the fact that the last admin allowed a flood of immigrants into the country, and now that they're here, you want ICE to not enforce the law. If you support not screening people at the border, then not investigating once they're here...who will protect citizens?

quote:

---

What are you talking about?

---

I want to know what OTHER laws you believe we can ignore. You're ignoring immigration law, after all. As I understand it, we don't get to choose which laws we can follow. Maybe you know something that I don't.

quote:

---

People break all kinds of laws every day without facing any consequences. I didn't say anything about "ignoring" laws. I don't support federal agents patrolling suburbs and cities demanding to see papers.

---

So how are the illegals supposed to be removed? You don't want the law enforced, you want them to stay with zero consequences...are you even REMOTELY FAMILIAR with human nature?

quote:

---

I have never advocated for this

---

I'll concede that you haven't mentioned it here, but given your liberal worldview, I'd be shocked if that wasn't your position. But if you won't support the government to uphold the law, don't be surprised if someone takes the law into their own hands. I don't support vigilantism, but it would certainly be an interesting defense if an accused based it on the "the government failed to uphold the law, no one was left to defend me but me."

So one of your kids is missing. Witness saw a white male mid 40's get the kid into a red 4 door car and drive away. Would you want the cops to stop any and all mid 40's white males in red 4 door cars? Maybe even EVERY red 4 door car. Or would your position stay the same and the cops shouldn't stop anyone unless they KNEW the child was inside? Afterall, if the cops stop 25 white males in red 4 door cars and find your child, it is likely that they "wrongly" detained 24 looking for him.

It wouldn't bother me at all to be questioned, if I've done nothing wrong.

Your days are numbered!

Sounds like you're a normal person Unless someone is up to some very shady shite I really don't care about their immigration status

---

Ok. Fine.

But to be fair, I, as a tax paying citizen, need to be able to break some laws without consequence too. Any ones off the top of your head that would be good ones to start with?

While you are entitled to your opinion, the law doesn't see it that way. I'll ask you, for the sake of spirited discussion, what laws do you believe we're allowed to "dismiss", on our own opinions? And suppose my list is different from yours? Who "wins" in that situation?

If you want to change immigration law, by all means, contact your Congressional representative and start the process. But if you're advocating that we get to pick and choose...that's not gonna work.
