Let the spin begin

So, some guy from, say, Ecuador or Chile comes to our border requesting asylum.

What would be valid grounds for them to request asylum?

I'm not an immigration lawyer that is an expert on seeking asylum.

We have covered this extensively but you rely on Fox News. This covered people seeking asylum. People seeking asylum are NOT here illegally and they can not seek employment until their cases are heard and ruled on.

They should wait in their country. If they didn't come through a point of entry, they are here illegally.

Oh, suddenly you're no expert.

Who knew?

No, no they are not. Please learn our laws before spouting off.

To obtain asylum through the affirmative asylum process you must be physically present in the United States. You may apply for asylum regardless of how you arrived in the United States or your current immigration status.

I don't which is why I do not support what we do in other countries. You took what I said as supporting it?




Everyone in this country is allotted due process whether you like it or not.

And the "due process" for someone here illegally is to be apprehended and deported...

Well, I'm pretty sure those seeking asylum also aren't lawyers.

If only immigration lawyers know what a valid asylum request is, then the illegals sure the fuck don't know, so how can they request it?

Seriously, though, you can't opine as to what you think a valid reason would be? Really?

Does this mean they should get free housing? You know, since they can't "legally" work?

After their day in court. Of course, with their job awaiting them, they just turn around and return.

They don't have to be.

I posted the law. You don't have to accept it but it's still the law.

Seriously, though, you can't opine as to what you think a valid reason would be? Really?

It's irrelevant what I think. I did note that I believe us undermining their economy is a good reason.

I'm good with it.

 

[forkup]

And why are these people requesting asylum?

How should I know? Each request is different. The point is it takes 6 years on average to have their case ruled on.

If you truly are interested in solving the problem. That is the most efficient, legal, and humane way to solve it.

The problem is, I very much suspect that solving the problem is simply not politically expedient for Republican politicians.

 

[DukeU]

I'm good with it.

But, it doesn't happen? Remember?

Bullshit.

They may be requesting it, but most of them are programmed by the DNC to use the right words without having any understanding about what they mean.

Oh good, another completely proof-free claim so some hack doesn't actually have to engage the premise.

Good political theater is a balancing act.

We need a little reality.

You're making that more and more apparent with every post...

Do you believe that it's politically expedient for democrats to do it?

 

[Canon Shooter]

I'm good with it.

And where should that free housing be located? How about your neighborhood. Would you be okay with that?
