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.

Steve, are you arguing that ICE should have more resources so they can try to do a perfect job with this stuff?

Absolutely. iirc, there was legislation in Congress to do just that, but someone wanted it buried.

from the net sifter:

The Bipartisan Border Security Bill of 2024, which did not pass, would have significantly restricted asylum while also providing funding for increased border enforcement personnel and technology, expediting deportations, and increasing the number of immigration judges. It proposed new emergency authority to close the border to migrants when crossings exceed certain levels and would have given the executive branch more power to quickly remove asylum seekers with limited screening. The bill also included provisions to combat fentanyl trafficking and provided funding for state and local governments to manage costs related to immigration

Or are you arguing that the laws should not be enforced?

I have been saying, for years, that so called "sanctuary cities/counties/states" are fundamentally wrong. If you don't like a law, don't ignore it, change it. That is how democracies are supposed to work.

Steve
