Did you read it? What am I missing?
There’s a vetting process for those coming through legal channels… while it might not be 100% it’s still better than no vetting at all as we have with undocumented people.
That’s why the Biden administration has ushered in millions of them… 100 murders spread out over 10 million illegals is a drop in the bucket
You don’t believe that a large segment of the illegal immigration bucket is filled with people who initially entered legally but have become illegal due to their visas or whatever the legal option was to begin with expiring?
There probably are. And they should be deported like other immigration criminals.
Even tho most of them have become “criminals” due to flaws in our process….
What flaw? The law says what it says. Obey it, or leave.
Of course that isn't the argument I was making with my post.
Obviously a vetting process is ideal, obviously a controlled process that considers who might best contribute to the country is ideal.
It depends on what you consider a crime. The average American breaks the law 7 times a day.
Completely and totally misses the point. I don’t care if 99% are great people, we shouldn’t let them in because the 1% that aren’t are way to many.
Then you're against legal immigration if it produces the same percentage of bad people? (or if it produces more)
That's 100% incorrect. Deportations are handled through immigration court, while criminal proceedings (a crime) are handled in a completely different court.
I know you're not very smart when you claim you want them to claim asylum. What do you think the Venezuelans applied for? I doubt you've every lived anywhere other than Iowa.
Rationalizing illegal. What would happen to any US citizen if they overstayed their visa in another country?
Flaws like it taking YEARS to get visas renewed for one.
Depends on the country and its laws don’t it?
Why is that a flaw? US citizenship should be difficult to attain for non citizens.
I don’t live in Iowa, and I’ve been all over the world to places little libtard bitches on this board couldn’t find on a map, let alone would step foot in.
Depends on the country but everything from deportation to jail to death is on the table
I thought the italicized text was just copied from the link so I went and read the link but not all of your text.
This isn't about it being hard or easy - for many, it's about a process taking years that should take weeks or months at most.
They typically get a grace period. Edit: Also depends on what type of visa we are talking about. I am sure you know that.
The process can’t start at all if people who want to come here attempt to circumvent the system.
Not defending people who try to circumvent it entirely, I’m talking solely about the millions of people who have played by the rules, but for whom our system has failed.
You can’t simultaneously complain about the broken immigration system with millions of people involved and then state the process is what America wants it to be. Heck, you can argue that a large percentage of trumps political success is directly attributable to many Americans who ARENT satisfied with the status quo, and want action.
I'm here for that as long as we aren't granting amnesty to those who haven't followed the proper procedures to this point. I agree cleaning up the backlog of people who have filed, and are trying to do the right thing is a good thing.
A not insignificant part of the problem is insufficient resources to deal with what’s already here.
Agree to disagree that it’s a secondary issue. Undocumented immigrants make up a far larger % of illegal immigrants than people think.
You get a chubby when you read about children being raped by these ILLEGAL monsters, don't you?
