I am not in favor of decriminalizing illegal border crossings.

I was just saying that that is the most radical view of the current contenders.

You can, you just need to do your homework. If an article cites sources of information, follow the trail and try to find and read original documents if mentioned. At times you have to look at the information presented and determine if the author is presenting facts or their opinion of the facts. Sometimes you have to look into multiple sources and check even local sources of information of events that make national news. If someone is claiming to explain the context of a comment a person made and provides a clip, look for a recording of what the person said in its entirety to get the context yourself.

One can’t simply pick a news organization because they report in a manner that confirms one’s personal bias.

In the case of the above posted Breitbart article you have different web sites citing each other claiming the story is based off information provided on another site, but when you actually follow the trail, you simply end up looking at articles that reference each other and never any actual information obtained from reports they claim to reference. This would not be a valid source.

106

To which they all raised their hands. They’re all radical.

107

Of course one can, why on earth would I post a link that doesn’t confirm my bias?

Are you claiming to be objective?

108

Have you even read the text of California’s SB 54 and the TRUST Act? If the illegal has already been convicted for assault, battery, sexual abuse and exploitation, rape, crimes endangering children, burglary, robbery, theft, fraud, forgery, a crime resulting in death, gang-related offenses, some domestic violence offenses, drug and weapon-related offenses and felony driving under the influence they can be detailed for deportation.

The law in California simply prohibits local and state law enforcement from using their resources to arrest people for federal immigration law enforcement.

109

Wasn’t that to whether or not the health care plan would cover them?

That is hardly radical.

110

No. They all raised their hands to decriminalize being in the country illegally.

Why not just let them vote?

111

Then you are simply not a reliable source and I would need to double check the veracity of your claims.

I try to be as factual as possible. I am also human so yes, there are times when my bias will affect my views.

112

Check with other biased sources? How are you going to know which one is correct?

113

And healthcare.

114

So no penalties for being the country illegally, and free healthcare. No taxes, no selective service… man, illegals would have it great under the Dems.

115

This thread is the board in a nutshell. Someone posts something inflammatory and unequivocally false. They are asked to show evidence. The original poster doesn’t and attacks the one asking for proof. The original poster continues to repeat his unsubstantiated claims and their compatriots joint in.

You know what, I’m gonna let the herd thin itself out a bit before I worry too much about what any one candidate says.

By the way, nice pivot. :laughing::laughing: Executive whaaatt??

Donald is the only one smiling.

5,600 criminal illegal aliens and ICE couldn’t be troubled to get a warrant for any of them… Sure seems like a performance problem with ICE versus a problem with California… Are warrants really that hard?

119

It’s not local jurisdictions’ responsibility to enforce federal immigration law.

120

Nothing.

121

Shoot em, cut off their heads, and put them on spikes lining the southern wall. Tar to preserve them is optional.

122

This isn’t Game of Thrones. That doesn’t work in real life. We needs a moat.

With alligators and head mounted lasers… Sharks would do but that would require salt water…
