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.

But having been at one time a member of a gang is not in itself a deportable offense. Indeed, the very reason so many Venezuelans (among others) to the long, dangerous trip to the US is precisely because they either had to become gang members or face possible death. The relevant facts are about what they've done in the US since living here.

DOJ admits that many of them have no criminal records, not even arrests for minor offenses. Hell, the Mad King has a longer rap sheet than many of the folks his secret police have deported.

Maybe we could arrange a trade?
