Do you truly believe these immigrants and asylum seekers have a voice?
currentlyhigh t1_ixw9hcp wrote
Yes. Why do you think they don't? Just because they aren't citizens means they don't have autonomy? They don't need your infantilizing white savior attitude.

What the fuck, dude.

I thought the same thing when you implied that immigrants don't have a voice.

No, they are here illegally and should immediately be turned around at the border.
Democrats (and Republicans) should be clear that there is NO PATH To citizenship, it would alleviate a lot of suffering if people weren’t traipsing across the Western Hemisphere on foot, with in some cases kids in tow, paying human traffickers for misery in hopes of getting into this horrible racist country.

They are literally not here illegally. These are asylum seekers waiting for legal court dates, legally.

Only in Democrats minds do they have a legitimate asylum claim.
riri1313 t1_ixwcz9v wrote
No one is claiming that. The whole point of their court hearing is to determine if the claim is legit. Do you not believe in the legal system?
The vast majority of these folks show up to their court dates and abide by the rulings.

None of them show up for their hearings. Are you really this naive?

Alright since the actual data proves you wrong, I’m going to peace out. I’m from this region in Texas btw and you don’t have any idea what you are talking about.

Your biased media site includes a comment that says “other data refuted this study”. Mind showing the original data or study?
Sheldon_Cooper_1 t1_ixwx2ue wrote
How about you show your data?
riri1313 t1_ixwx5rk wrote
I did - my comment below includes a link with further links to data. Have a look! 🤡

I did, the PJ article explains why that data is faulty and included congressional testimony.
If you believe any significant amount of illegal border crossers show up in court. I have a bridge to sell you.

*legal border crossings. And again, I’m from the region in Texas you keep referencing - I have an understanding for the nuances of different border crossings and the rates in which those types complete their court obligations. But sure, keep trying to explain to me “how it works. ✌️

“In fiscal year 2018, Department of Justice (DOJ) figures show that 89 percent of all asylum applicants attended their final court hearing to receive a decision on their application. When families and unaccompanied children have access to legal representation, the rate of compliance with immigration court obligations is nearly 98 percent.“

The PJ article explains why that is not true.
Are there any illegals where you live? I can assure you the ones around here aren’t going to any court.
