The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", BreckHutHigh asked the members: "What about the long road trips with kids?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

Right. So democrats are border hawks and are really invested in securing the nation.

I've stated my views. We keep right way vs wrong way at the border, limit the number that can apply each day, and have them stay in Mexico until they get asylum granted. Wrong way means a year wait or more before they can apply the right way.

Yes, we are invested in securing the nation, just not against brown, black, or other color people joining us. I recognize xenophobia as a likely evolutionary phenomena probably linked to a survival trait, but racism and hate aren't.

Question. Why are left wing politicians making videos about how to evade ICE, then?

You are talking about Mamdani's short video on Know Your Rights?

Google: Google Search

Once again, have you watched it? You should. The 4th amendment? Protection against unreasonable searches and seizures? The 4th Amendment applies to illegal immigrants, and ICE should get a judicial warrant to enter private spaces. They can get a warrant over the phone from a cooperating judge, that's done all the time. At one point Mamdani seems to say the ICE warrant doesn't allow them to arrest you, that is partially correct, they can arrest you in public spaces, they just cannot use the ICE warrant to enter private spaces and arrest you. The video I watched doesn't show or talk about how to evade. Your sources is biased, manipulating you.
