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.

Why? What's the justification for refusing to grant asylum for someone who is, in fact, a legitimate asylee? - </i?

----------------

The same justification that will exist after the new law is in place. Except now there is a tool to do so. Controlling overwhelming migration was the justification and still is.

To use the new law means those turned away are being denied a hearing, something you think 100% are entitled to. I think this is OK because we are a sovereign country making a decision. You seem to extend some right to non citizens presently not in our country that if they come here they have a right to to make their case and it is a right we must honor under all circumstances.

The idea that "all migrants have a right" is unsustainable as more and more citizens are becoming aware of, thanks to the pioneering work done by Greg Abbott.
