Illegals. Where do we draw a line on the law or should we?

[We Never Know]

I understand there will be kids involved but IMO that's the fault of the illegal parent(s). Where do we draw a line of bending the law, enforcing the law or overlooking the law?

If this was a state or school breaking the law over religion, people would be all over it. Point being breaking the law is breaking the law or have we came to picking and choosing the laws we break dependant upon what we think? Isn't illegal, illegal?

Cities prepare for showdown with Trump over ICE raids: You 'have to come through us'

"In Denver, Mayor Michael Hancock said city police officers would avoid helping ICE agents but said city human service workers were on alert to assist any minor children left behind if their parents are arrested.

In many cases, immigrants who lack legal permission to remain in the United States have minor children who are U.S. citizens. That puts officials in liberal cities like Denver or San Francisco in the tough position of opposing the ICE raids themselves but still having to manage the consequences."

What would you do about the small children who are US citizens?

Look at it this way. We take legal people to court for trespassing, fine them and sometimes jail them. Isn't being here illegally trespassing? Breaking the law?

Put them in custody of a legal relative? Up for adoption? Let the parent(s) choose to take them back with them? There are many options.

 

[We Never Know]

Its a misdemeanor.

Putting the 10 commandments up in a state building or prayer in school is worse how? It probably isn't even a misdemeanor, it just pisses people off. Point is again, illegal is illegal.

Except our economy isn't intimately dependent upon trespassing the way it does illegal immigration. Without that, our crops go very largely unharvested. There is no easy or simply answer or solution to this.

Stop tap dancing.

The 10 commandments don't bother me. A manger on the court house lawn doesn't bother me but people will go to extremes to stop those things while turning their head to illegals. That bothers me. Illegal is illegal.

We don't sever parental rights in this country.

Quit paying lazy not wanting to work people a monthly check, WIC, food stamps, housing, etc and put them to work. Earn what you need.

Oh. So sneak over the border illegally, knock somebody up or get knocked up and breaking the law by being an illegal should be over looked?

 

[We Never Know]

Stop tap dancing.

I'm not. You are. Again is illegal, illegal? It's a simple question. Where do we say it's ok for some to break the laws but not others?

Who said they're lazy? Americans specifically aren't working agriculture. According even to farmers paying people to work, it's not unusual for an American to want to flip burgers instead of work agriculture.

Over half the people on warfare could work but won't. Why work when you get it free?

Hell even half the people claiming to be disabled people could work but won't since they get a free ride.

One key difference here is that no human beings are harmed by removing the 10 commandments or a manger from a courthouse lawn.

The U.S. is a signatory to the Universal Declaration of Human Rights. Regardless of their immigration status, we are duty-bound to respect and honor their rights as human beings.

Put it this way, give someone free medical, free dental, free housing, free food, a monthly allowance, etc,,, why would they want to work?

Edit.. But hey at least they are government controlled that way right?
