Put one Burger King or McDonalds VP of Operationsin jail for 3 years
and the "immigration problem" ends in 72 hours

:nod:
Agreed

But it also pokes a bit of a hole in the idea that all these hapless waifs are fleeing for their lives from their gulags

so Im pretty sure the conversation would continue

Certainly not. But if they are stopped and make a run for it, what are we to do? I know what the Chinese, Norks and Russians would do if you tried to bumrush a port of entry.
Now the Mexicans are saying they are no longer going to help the US fight against the cartels? As if they are doing it at all. Even more reason to reinforce the border.

The won't make a run for it if they can't get a job. They can't get a job if employers won't hire them. Employers won't hire them if a few are executed.

Isn't that what the Chinese, Norks, and Russians do to business owners who defy the party?

You should be all for this.

Is there some reason these people can have asylum in Mexico? It seems to selfish for the US to hog all the diversity and multiculturalism for ourselves.

I said nothing about shooting people on sight. If they are stopped and then run in, then shoot em. That's how borders work. Come in legally, no problem, welcome to the USA, do it illegally, you're a dumbass putting yourself at in danger.

In somewhat related news:

"ICE raids meatpacking plant in Tennessee; 97 immigrants arrested

Federal officials arrested 97 immigrants at a meat-processing plant in rural Tennessee on Thursday in what civil rights organizations said was the largest single workplace raid in a decade and a sign that the Trump administration is carrying out its plan to aggressively ramp up enforcement this year.

Ten people were arrested on federal immigration charges, one person was arrested on state charges and 86 immigrants were detained for being in the country illegally, Tammy Spicer, a spokeswoman for Immigration and Customs Enforcement, said in a statement Friday. All of those arrested are suspected of being in the country illegally, she said. Immigration advocates said most were from Mexico.

The raid on Southeastern Provision in Bean Station, Tennessee, follows arrests at 7-Eleven stores and other workplaces nationwide. Last year, the nation's top immigration official said he had ordered agents to increase the number of work-site inspections and operations by "four or five times" this year, to turn off the job "magnets" that attract immigrants who are in the country illegally and punish employers who hire them....

.....The immigration arrests came as authorities executed a federal criminal search warrant at the cattle-slaughter facility, outside Knoxville in northeast Tennessee. ICE said it was a joint operation involving its Homeland Security Investigations arm, the Internal Revenue Service and the Tennessee Highway Patrol.

In a federal affidavit, IRS Special Agent Nicholas Worsham said the family-run plant is under criminal investigation for allegedly evading taxes, filing false tax returns and hiring immigrants in the country illegally.

He alleged the facility failed to report $8.4 million in wages and to pay at least $2.5 million in payroll taxes for dozens of undocumented workers.

Federal agents began investigating the company months ago after Citizens Bank employees noticed that Southeastern Provision was withdrawing large sums of cash every week - more than $25 million since 2008. Worsham said the plant hired undocumented workers who were paid in cash and subject to harsh conditions, including long hours without overtime and exposure to bleach and other chemicals without protective eyewear......"

"..."People are panicked," said Stephanie Teatro, co-executive director of the Tennessee Immigrant and Refugee Rights Coalition, a statewide organization that came to the small town and set up intake centers at local churches where relatives could report their loved ones missing. "People are terrified to drive. People are terrified to leave their homes."..."

Good. Because these "people" are illegal immigrants. People who aren't illegals have no reason to be panicked, scared, terrified..

And hammer the employers..

A positive step..

"Trump signs memo ending 'catch and release' immigration policy

U.S. President Donald Trump signed a memorandum on Friday ordering the end of a policy, known as “catch and release,” in which illegal immigrants are released from detention while awaiting a court hearing on their status.

As part of the memo, Trump asked Defense Secretary Jim Mattis to produce a list of military facilities that could be used to detain illegal immigrants."

I don't see a difference because the way I'm raised, both those things are murder.

If the US becomes a desperate economic shithole and one of your daughters makes a run into Canada to find a better life, you're ok with some mountie shooting her for running across an imaginary line in the middle of nowhere? We know she's not a dumbass.

While “sight” is the typical phrase here, the area that it occurs is also a “site”. I didn’t phone in to the League office in NY, but I bet this one would stand. Kalm made a football move before he typed that and essentially became a runner. Surviving the ground was of no concern. Though the word was bobbled slightly after breaking the plane, I don’t believe it can be overturned.

Not sure if you are referencing the current rules. Please "cite" the language in the rulebook that provides the basis of your ruling.

So if someone is for enforcing immigration law, more border enforcement, going after the illegals and the employers, ending catch and release, ending chain migration and going back to merit based, ending the visa lottery, etc, that makes them KKK? Ok Densedawg Dback.. :roll:
