This view that the persons undocumented status is an [02:00] DaemonFC aggravating factor is also likely a reason why these crimes generate such strong responses. [02:00] DaemonFC It is an aggravating factor. [02:00] DaemonFC They should throw the immigration officer that "paroled" these people in the fucking electric chair right next to this guy.

[02:36] DaemonFC That's ripe for abuse. [02:36] DaemonFC I think we should presume that people escaping China need help and people coming here from Venezuela don't. [02:37] DaemonFC There's nothing really going on in Venezuela except they were stupid and ruined their own country and now they want to ruin ours too. [02:37] DaemonFC Plus, not many get here from China so it's more manageable. [02:38] DaemonFC And the ones who do managed to get enough money to get out, which means they can probably make money when they're here. [02:39] DaemonFC China isn't much different than East Germany where everyone who had a chance to get out risked getting shot in the back to escape Socialism and Communism. [02:40] DaemonFC They didn't vote their way into it, it was the Soviet occupation zone. [02:40] DaemonFC With Venezuela, it wasn't that different than the blue states in the US. [02:41] DaemonFC They failed because the takers and gimmedats got together, reproduced prolifically, didn't achieve anything in school, and started voting for more handouts. [02:41] DaemonFC Pritzker has turned into a Maduro. [02:41] DaemonFC He's completely taken over the Democrat party. [02:42] DaemonFC If they don't do what he wants, they don't get showered with his campaign funding. [02:42] DaemonFC He has a dream that there will be people paying taxes to support his army of freeloading voters. [02:43] DaemonFC And that nobody will try to leave, even as 1,000 more people do every day than what comes in. [02:44] DaemonFC That's why Chicago has emptied out and turned into an absolute war zone. People go to visit the tourist traps, not realizing that the Sears Tower is 90% empty and an observation deck. [02:44] arkanian being illegal doesn't mean they commit more heinous crimes [02:44] DaemonFC They shouldn't be here to commit any crimes.

[06:08] schestowitz[TR2] Like "I'm Russian and they'll conscript me." would be okay.

[06:08] arkanian Maybe Maduro is doing the same thing, just with a tighter grip on the media [06:08] schestowitz[TR2] it's not enough to take just word of mouth [06:09] arkanian the problem with asylum seekers is that the legal process requires applying in your home country and waiting for a response while the government knows full well that you are doing it [06:10] DaemonFC Remain in Mexico Policy.

Asylum cases are handled under the Immigration and Nationality Act, not the United Nations bullshit.

I'm saying we need to turn around the ones who have refused asylum in Mexico or some other country, and/or are obvious fraud. [06:15] DaemonFC To make room for the ones that need our protection. [06:15] DaemonFC Canada's asylum laws say you must "need the protection of Canada" or they refuse it. [06:15] DaemonFC They don't do "UN bullshit" up there either. [06:16] DaemonFC If you don't need it, you're eligible for deportation.

[06:23] schestowitz[TR2] the problem is that this became an industry [06:23] schestowitz[TR2] they need to sink the smuggling networks [06:23] schestowitz[TR2] to make way in the pipe [06:23] DaemonFC The UN has no power or authority beyond what we recognize.
