Ocasio-Cortez: Abolish ICE and Defund DHS Because ‘We Are a Nation of Laws’
Breitbart ^ | 7 Feb 2019 | Kyle Morris

Posted on 02/07/2019 2:43:04 PM PST by KC_Lion

Ocasio-Cortez took to the microphone to fight for the rights of those immigrating here illegally.

“This is one of the most urgent moral issues and crises that we have in America right now,” Ocasio-Cortez said to a small crowd of people and reporters gathered outside of the U.S. Capitol. “This is not a political issue. Children dying in detention centers should not be a partisan concern. It should be a universal concern for every American in the United States.”

Ocasio-Cortez then insisted that President Trump was lying when he said he liked “legal immigration.”

“He said and spoke of the idea that he likes, quote-unquote, legal immigration. But that is a lie. The president does not like any form of immigration. He has been cutting down and imposing restrictions on legal forms, on the diversity visa lottery, on family unification, and so on.”

....

“We are a nation and land of laws. Not just some people are subject to laws and others are not,” Ocasio-Cortez claimed. “When we are a land of laws, what that means is that every person that steps foot on this soil deserves the consideration of due process. They deserve the protections. They deserve to have access to our Bill of Rights. That’s what makes this nation special.”

No. Although she has the arrogance, it’s not enough. Hitler and Stalin were also competent.

We are a land of laws so those that come here illegally need to stay? Very Twisted logic.

Yes, it does.

Never try to process her “logic”.

You’ll get a severe headache.

Or hurt yourself when you fall down laughing.

Not just some people are subject to laws and others are not,”

Those laws decree that illegal aliens are to be deported, and that citizens who enable them are to be imprisoned. Occasional-Cortex deliberately obscures the facts.

I’ll focus on the positive. Yes, let’s not only defund DHS but shutter the whole damn thing. Never should have been created in the first place. And let’s get rid of the TSA while we’re at it.

Smile, I’ll have to keep that in mind. It could be a real safety concern.

I hope I never meet this nasty, ignorant douchebag. She poses an existential threat to my children and my country and I will absolutely act accordingly.
