However, the difference between a conservative (R)s & yes; (D)s, is that the conservative and law abiding citizen will comply with the law, grumpily, and respond at the ballot box.
Progressives, on the other hand, will *RESIST* or create Sanctuaries, and defy the laws. Or they will try to manipulate the language from something OhIDunno like Illegal to OhIDunno Undocumented.
Yeh Wayne - great job picking out a defensible high ground to soapbox from... |
local states cities refusing to do federal law enforcement job with out compensation and the term Sanctuaries city's was created by the Right who love to yell states rights again until they disagree
Under federal law, it is a crime for anyone to enter into the US without the approval of an immigration officer --
it's a misdemeanor offense that carries fines and no more than six months in prison.
Many foreign nationals, however, enter the country legally every day on valid work or travel visas, and end up overstaying for a variety of reasons.
But that's not a violation of federal criminal law --
it's a civil violation that gets handled in immigration court proceedings.
but please change the topic ...the law is clear in both cases and in both cases its the responsibility of law makers to fix or change the laws.
you just dont like push back comments.. on soap box threads you agree with..
