Harris: I’m Not In Favor Of Decriminalizing Illegal Immigration, I Just Won’t Treat It Like A Crime!

“Let me just be very clear,” Kamala Harris tells Meghan McCain right before she does the exact opposite. It’s rare to see an experienced politician contradict him/herself in the same appearance, but Harris manages to do almost within the same breath. When McCain declares that Harris is for decriminalization, Harris objects, saying “I am not in favor of decriminalizing.” In the very next sentence, Harris then says “we’re not going to treat people who are undocumented and cross borders as criminals.”

If that’s Harris’ idea of “very clear,” it explains a lot about her campaign:

Well, if that’s what she considers “very clear” ... it explains a lot about her thinking. Typical leftist fuzzy thinking.

Kamala Harris is running for the Democratic presidential nomination, not for the presidency of MENSA.

The word “decriminalize” has five syllables, which is way too long for Democratic voters to comprehend. So there’s no reason for her not to use it, no matter how foolishly.

She could legitimately say, “I’m almost a quarter black and proud of it.” Her “black” Jamaican father clearly isn’t even half black. She sees blackness as her hoped for ticket to the White House. She’s much more South Asian than black, but that’s not so popular in leftist politics. And of course she totally ignores her white heritage.

I wonder if the Democrats will ever champion an actual African-American for the presidency, considering American blacks are their strongest constituency. They seem to prefer foreign “blacks” with heavy white admixture. Just like they seem to prefer kowtowing to left leaning rich European nations than paying any attention to struggling African ones, regardless of their rhetoric.

Most liberals are fluent in gibberish.

"Now who can argue with that? I think we're all indebted to Gabby Johnson for stating what needed to be said. I am particulary glad that these lovely children are here today to hear that speech. Not only was it authentic frontier gibberish, it expressed the courage little seen in this day and age. "

She has a JD in law. One of my ninth grade English students trying to get out of reading Jane Austen could make better sense than this.

What law school did she go to? And what who did she do while she was there?

Fixed it.

I think that’s just a fancy lawyer/politician way of saying she won’t enforce the law.

I’m not in favor of decriminalizing bank robbery, I just won’t treat it as a crime. Note: if something is illegal, it’s a crime.

Translation from Democrat-speak: she's not in favor of removing the law from the books, she would just not enforce or prosecute, as long as the people breaking the law are her allies.

Something like how assault with a deadly weapon is technically against the law, but Antifa gets a pass from Democrat-controlled local governments.

Now, if we suddenly got a bunch of white South African refugees crossing the border and there's a risk they might support Republicans, she would order THEM to be shot on sight.

No, the American People need an inner NUKE - coming back to the Lord Jesus Christ and being transformed, shedding the chains of slavish dependency on man and the tyranny of the 80%+ unconstitutional federal government.

Christ is the only answer IMO.

Yep. They want to dissolve the United States of America. In a year or two they’ll be saying it outright, at the rate we’re going.

What she just said is that she is not in favor of changing the law, she will just refuse to uphold the law.

The Presidential oath means nothing to her.

Jane Austen? Sadist!

Sorry. I just remember some of the dreck I was forced to read in high school. And my dad was a teacher.

What she means is, people who vote *for* her shouldn’t be arrested, but the laws should be kept on the books, just in case she needs to use them against her opponents.

The multi-ethnic Kamala Harris claiming to be an African American is like Elizabeth Warren claiming to be a member of the Cherokee tribe.

Then there’s Joe Biden who claims to be a moderate even though he’s adopted most of the far-leftist views of his fellow Democratic presidential hopefuls.

At least Bernie Sanders hasn’t yet claimed to be a Presbyterian, though he’s gone out of his way to hide his Jewishness.

Lying is what Democrats do, it’s part of their DNA. And Democratic voters have the character trait of not caring if they’re lied to.
