For the record, I'd treat every murderer, child molester and rapist in the same category no matter the nationality. And each of them, in my opinion, are not worthy of sharing the title, "human being or God's children" with those of us who obey laws. I hope you feel somewhat the same. The words cruel and inhuman punishment don't protect the victim.
Vengeance is mine sayeth the Lord. I'm just trying to help the Lord in his work.
But for this day, you're giving into Trump's taking one case and magnifying it as a pretext for mass deportations.
Not at all. First, there are at least fifteen cases we can rattle off committed by gangs and violent criminals who were allowed, if not invited to cross the border.
People who crossed illegally did indeed break the law. 8 U.S.C.1325. Do I think they deserve the same swift kick in the ass as those above? No, and we won't see many of them deported. Too expensive and too time consuming of law enforcement, but it made good political incitement for Trump.
And that group most definitely doesn't deserve the same treatment as those who crossed legally, filed for citizenship etc. Those are the only group of people who should be receiving any type of government assistance.
There are different levels of criminal activity. Thus, misdemeanor, felony, capital, etc. and different levels of punishment for each.
Drill Baby Drill!
