I’m making a distinction between someone fleeing a horrible situation meeting the already outlined criteria for asylum Vs Someone just wanting to come to the country and then after they get caught attempt to abuse the policy of asylum I guess the point is what is their intention when they ...

[quote]No....I'm saying they will do and say anything to get in. Hell they are KNOWINGLY being separated from this own kids to get in.[/quote] Exactly. So they are making a false claim for asylum after trying to illegally cross the border. And because of that false claim are being seperated f...

[quote]I think much of this assault on the border was organized and initiated by progressive groups in this country urging those who might want to migrate to do so now in unison.[/quote] Possibly. Or they are being encouraged by legal counsel to seek asylum (when counsel knows damn well they will...

[quote]Asylum has three basic requirements. First, an asylum applicant must establish that he or she fears persecution in their home country.[3] Second, the applicant must prove that he or she would be persecuted on account of one of five protected grounds: race, religion, nationality, political opi...

Let’s think about this The families that are being seperated cross the border illegally THEN claim asylum. And this happens because you have someone who initially broke the law then claiming innocence so the case has to be heard in court, which takes longer than the allotted time a child can be h...

[quote]He didn't have to institute to zero-tolerance policy (always a terrible idea anyways), which is factually correct. [/quote] Doesn’t a law by nature have a zero tolerance policy? Can you explain how a typical law has a less than zero tolerance policy and give an example? Thanks...

Why do the workers have to be illegal? Why can’t we secure our border then increase LEGAL immigration? Do people work harder just because they crossed the border illegally? ...

Wasn’t this month supposed to be bad for the pope? Has anything happened yet?...

[quote]Although he's less than 2, Jaxen already shows signs of seeing his parents in terms of traditional gender roles. "He looks to me for nurturing," Angel says. "He looks to dad to play ball."[/quote] Wait. So they are admitting that there is a biological human nature that differs between the ...

I just find it weird that I am squarely in the middle class but I don’t know anyone that has been murdered. She is in the upper class of America but is associated with all these murders? There are no coincidences. Murders of upper class people don’t happen too often. I’m not trying to sound uppi...

I get why you are trying to steer the conversation to bathroom laws. I’m not for laws. That’s not what this thread was about. A better example of what this thread is about would be James Damore’s memo. A memo filled with scientific citations. A memo that he got fired for. ...

Its just a meme that they repeat. It’s not unique to Trump, they just take it to another level with him...

I’m a millennial. There is no such thing as millennial slang. You just backed yourself into a corner and realized it. You are fine with behaviors you don’t think are “weird”, but if we drilled down on the subject we could find something you are uncomfortable with that the law wouldn’t protect yo...

[quote]I meant as long as you don’t do anything weird.[/quote] Got it, so if you think something is “weird” it’s not ok....

[quote]I mean, as long as you don’t have other intentions. It’s not like the law allows you to hover over women to your heart’s desire. [/quote] How will you judge my intentions? And what if I have bad intentions? Is that a crime? ...

Everything is a mess. There’s hypocrisy on both sides. I’ll be the first to admit that. I just think (and I may be biased) that there is malicious hostility on the side of the left when they are trying to destroy lives, restrict free speech, and get people fired for thinking differently. That’s what...

I’m not disagreeing with you. I never said anything about passing legislation. But by your standard there should be no cultural norms based on sex. So I can change in the women’s locker room at the gym with your wife right?...

[quote]cahoots[/quote] What is with your obsession with bathrooms? It’s a little strange ...

[quote]The left didn’t claim discrimination until the bill was passed. Things were fine. Your side was offended by using bathrooms with transgender folks. [/quote] :lol: you can’t be serious right? You should look up Jordan Peterson’s story or James Damore and google. I’m not spinning anything...

[quote]I understand the point you’re trying to make but I just want to be sure you aren’t pretending the right is doing the exact same thing.[/quote] Nothing in my post says anything about the Right. I’m not defending current conservative politics. If you want to start a thread about ironic polit...
