“Majorities, however, favor arrests at protests or rallies, 66%; homes, 63%; and places of work, 54%.”
Bu Bu But on the News it said I didn’t want them to get picked up exercising their 1st Amendment Rights…

My thoughts:
If they came here illegally, deport them. If they procreated while here illegally, deport them too.
When, where & how? Wherever they are, whenever the opportunity presents itself and by whatever means are legally permissible. Give them a “I voted for a democrat” sticker as a parting gift.

Show current state of major European cities on tv and convince more people that deportation is a necessity.

The Illegal Immigration Reform and Immigrant Responsibility Act of 1996 prohibits non-citizens - which includes illegal immigrants - from voting in federal elections.
Every state is required to use a common registration form which requires people to confirm they are US citizens, under penalty of perjury for false claims. Your state may require you to show a photo ID like a driver’s license, state ID, or passport. Or they may ask to see another form of identification like your birth certificate, or Social Security card. If you are a registered voter and have a voter registration card, you are not required to bring it with you when you vote. But you can still use it as a form of identification.
Since you brought up voting and possible illegal actions …
President Donald Trump did not rule out the possibility of seeking a third term in the White House, which is prohibited by the Constitution under the 22nd Amendment, saying in an exclusive interview with NBC News that there were methods for doing so and clarifying that he was “not joking.” It appears once a felon always a felon … Explains recidivism rates, The method in which their mind works..
It would seem, the only one’s not having to follow the law are illegals and politicians…

8 USC 1325 exists too, but here we are.
There are local, state and federal laws with regard to vandalism, causing bodily harm, making threats, attempted and actual assassinations, again, here we are.
Your democrat heroes seem to not mind one bit. Many of them are actually calling for it.
So, preach on, my friend. Maybe your pontification will be heard by someone who actually gives a crap what you think.

This right here, Trump absolutely knows that he can say the most off the wall things and get a knee jerk response. As long as it shows up in the headlines for days he will keep doing it. And it’s brilliant really, while everyone is clutching their pearls on some of the most egregious ideas he comes up with, it lets him get all his other agenda items to pass right through because, they don’t look that bad to the level of crazy of running for a 3rd term or invading Greenland, Canada and Panama.

We can hope, It would not be the first time a politician tried to skirt the law … Personally I do not desire to live under a kings rule … Much like our founding fathers … Washington could have been king.. Thankfully he was intelligent enough to recognize it is not the path for the republic …
This is direct from the Bannon playbook… If you throw shiat at a screen some will get through …
Shiat starters and Trolls … Is this what you were talking about in your comments Don…

The Sixth Amendment of the United States Constitution protects the rights of people accused of crimes. These rights include a speedy trial, the right to an impartial jury, and the right to legal representation. The amendment was ratified on December 15, 1791.. This to me is where the problem lies.. It doesn’t say citizens of our country but people …
Again, I am all for deporting illegals… Like I always contend laws must be followed by everyone …

Why do you feel the First Amendment only protects citizens from being persecuted by the Federal Government for their speech, ability to assemble or religion? While I highly doubt the Government is going to throw an illegal in prison for anything they say, they will arrest them however for being in the country illegally, so it’s kind of a mute point. But they do have other protections provided to them like the Sixth Amendment as General_Consensus points out above.

Trump likes to stir the pot, he says 3rd term but we all know that wont happen. FDR was a totally different situation and it wont happen nowadays but it makes the lefts head explode.
As for immigration, maybe think another motive?
Hes forcing congress and the SC to take action vs sanctuary cities and liberal district judges. Its causing people to talk. Take birth right, everyone knows its abused but now folks are really talking about it.
We have so many archaic laws that some need changed. When the laws were made, they didnt have Biden opening the borders, TDA or MS13.
Illegal immigration has always been a problem. Legal immigration takes forever and money. Time for DC to start doing their jobs. Maybe trump is pushing it to the forefront, besides fraud, waste and abuse.
He knows lib judges will block him and he wants it to go higher.
Just an idea

Why should local governments handle immigration? It’s a responsibility of the Federal Government, I have zero issue with the Federal Government coming to my State, County or City to handle immigration. I do have issues with them being lazy and telling my State, County or City to take on a responsibility that I pay Federal Taxes for. I don’t want my State or Local Taxes to be used to do a job the Federal Government should be doing. I see absolutely no reason to pay two or three taxes for the same service.

Exactly. Unfortunately thats what it has come down for many decades. DC doesnt say anything cuz they want to get re-elected.
Time to bring it back to feds hands.
Trump is doing that and libs are pissing their pants.

Absolutely in 100% agreement, the Feds need to do their job and stop telling Local Governments to do it. Don’t expect my Local LE to round up illegals, don’t expect to house them in my local jails. Have ICE come in round them up and move them to a federal Facility. Stop crying because an illegal got a DUI and was released at 7 AM when the Jail notified the Feds they had an illegal and provided the time and place they would be released and could be picked up.

I agree with the above comments, mostly. Well, entirely but with a caveat.
Currently, there are so many illegals here that the federal agencies have to rely on assistance from the state and local agencies. They have a better understanding and greater knowledge of who the illegals are and where they are. Further, the number alone mandates their assistance. That’s if we want timely results. Certainly won’t speak for anyone else, but I feel it’s an “all hands on deck” situation.
When we return to a manageable level, the federal agencies should handle all aspects with which they’re capable of.

The issue is there will never be a “manageable number” for the Federal Government and when State and Local Governments take over the responsibility the Federal Government drags their feet because of costs. In Oregon we used to hold illegals in our Jails till ICE came and got them, the problem was ICE would leave them for months if not years sitting there eating up my tax dollars. If a guy gets a DUI I don’t want him sitting for years draining local taxes, I want the Federal Government to be there at 7 AM and take him to a Federal holding facility. I pay for that already, don’t make me pay twice.

I understand not wanting to pay twice, I don’t want that either.
The fact that Oregon is a sanctuary state suggests to me that the federal agencies are at a disadvantage there. Oregon’s state and local governments are prohibited from participating in immigration enforcement. While this doesn’t create a full roadblock, it’s certainly creates obstacles.

Oregon became this way because they were hosed by the Feds too many times when it came to immigration. And I am fine with it. If Ice wants to come in and round them up, it’s not hard to do, just hit every farm, hotel, restaurant, warehouse, etc and they can walk away with thousands of people here illegally. They don’t need my local government to direct them to places of employment. I personally would not mind if they rounded up all the homeless as well, but they are all white.
