"the government gave the illegal immigrants more time to build family connections here in the hope of winning exemption from the law" = Obama's Fault

I think I'll use that logic ...

[Bob434]

worse yet is that liberals love to call them “Undocumented Citizens”

[Tennessee Nana]

who ever said they were ???

Illegal aliens are not immigrants

Illegal aliens are not American citizens

Illegal aliens are Mexican citizens or OTM (Other Then Mexican) citizens...

If they were voting Republican they would have been deported long ago. And where was the outrage when Obama told them to go vote in the last election?

🤔. Just a guess, trespassing? So do all our lib buddies leave all their houses unlocked, keys in cars, credit cards laying about? Why not?

From a few news’ stories I have seen, Trump seems to be doing more than most, but the vast majority of them are here to stay, I’m sorry to say. We have had too many presidents that have kicked the can down the road. The numbers are too big. And I know darn well there’s a heckuva lot more than 12 million of them here. That number that they have floated for years is downright silly.

The concept of churches as "sanctuary" predates the colonization of North America and was a part of common law in England and the European continent solely to allow the lawbreaker to make his/her Confession and receive the Sacraments before surrendering, which was part of the penance.

Absolutely not for the purpose of evading responsibility indefinitely.

An illegal alien is NOT an “immigrant”.

An illegal alien is a foreign national who is unlawfully present within the boundaries of the United States.

The DOJ and ICE need to start arresting the public officials of these “sanctuary” cities, and charging them with felony aiding and abetting, and human trafficking/smuggling charges.

A few mayors and police chiefs in federal prison for 20 years will send a strong message.

Indeed, the government shares with them the responsibility for the heartbreak that deportation would cause, since in repeatedly postponing its deportation orders the government gave the illegal immigrants more time to build family connections here in the hope of winning exemption from the law.

What BS. There are 600,000 absonders who have gone thru the entire judicial procedures, including appeals, and were ordered deported. They remain in the US.

The illegal aliens are entirely responsible for their behavior and the consequences. They not only entered the country illegally, they have committed multiple crimes including ID theft, lying on federal forms (I-9), working illegally (it is illegal for an illegal alien to work in this country as well as to hire one), tax evasion, misuse, of SSNs, etc.

And most illegals are not “undocumented”.

The majority have plenty of documentation and all of it proves that they are not US citizens and are here illegally.

[Kickass Conservative]

They are not Illegal Immigrants, they are Illegal Invaders.

Immigrants are Invited, Invaders are Repelled.

[ConservaTexan]

Crimmigrants.

[fella]

Wait a minute!

Somebody in Connecticut has figured out that entering the country illegally is illegal?

[JimRed]

Neither are armed citizens who have not begged permission from government, in about thirty one states.

One of the few times liberal blowhards find a useful purpose for a church—the building, not its mission.

[YogicCowboy]

More carnal communism substituted for the genuine Gospel.

Heresy dressed up as charity.
