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.

Dope1,

The problem that albaby1 and his less-articulate leftist cronies have is that they think they can declare that immigration laws simply "don't count."

It's absurd and illogical.

Every nano second an illegal alien remains in the country, they are violating the law.

As such, they are chronic law-breakers.

Disrespect for immigration laws means disrespect for ALL laws.

It's signaling enablement and encouragement not just of illegal aliens, but encouraging violation or ignoring of any other pesky laws they don't like.

It's more generally sending out the message that they encourage and welcome a generally lawless society--which they do.

These privileged leftists are the exact same people who would blow a gasket if you took your dog for a walk, let it poop on their front yard, and then left it right there instead of picking it up with a little baggie (that's required where I live and many other places--don't leave your dog's poop on the ground!)

What if said dog-walker and poop-leaver was confronted by albaby1 or any of these other nimrods. Couldn't they just say, "Well, what's your problem? Other than violating the dog poop law, I'M A LAW ABIDING CITIZEN. Therefore, you cannot enforce the dog poop law against me, and further, you are a NAZI if you enforce the dog poop law against me, and I am entitled to try to run you over with my SUV."

Or parking in front of your driveway so you can't get your car out to go to work in the morning. "Other than blocking your car in by parking illegally, I AM A LAW ABIDING CITIZEN. Therefore, you are a NAZI if you enforce the illegal parking laws against me."

I mean these people are stupid and illogical. Albaby1 is just more stubborn and articulate and tricky--he's good at "sounding reasonable in tone" yet constantly makes all kinds of false assumptions, unsupported conclusions, and constantly raising straw men.

Albaby1, can my dog crap on your lawn? You good with that? How about every day? How about 100 dog walkers let their dogs crap on your lawn every day and don't pick it up? OTHER THAN BREAKING THE DOG POOP LAW, THEY ARE ALL LAW ABIDING CITIZENS. Therefore, you are a NAZI if you try to enforce the dog poop law.
