JeffreyRaze 06/27/18 9:54:52 PM #402:	I honestly think it's worth engaging with Corrik, but not in the way people do most of the time (and me sometimes as well admittedly). Corrik is spectacularly bad at communication but that just provides a good opportunity to practice both deciphering other people's views from poorly worded statements, and figuring out how to phrase things in a way he understands. Learning to engage people on their level without compromising your own beliefs is a very valuable skill IMO. Man, this post is condescending as fuck. Oh well. --- JeffRaze, for all your random spellcasting needs <cite>JeffreyRaze posted [p:904094080] in Politics C...

I don't know about her specifically, but for many of the Democrat politicians suggesting this the idea is not to stop immigration enforcement but to transfer the responsibility over to other law enforcement agencies. If your view is that ICE is out of control (for which I think there's quite a bit of evidence...) this makes sense (and note that ICE was created in 2002, before which we did not just have open borders). I do think that "abolish ICE" is probably a pretty big loser of a political message, though (exactly because it does sound like a call to stop immigration enforcement entirely). --- Congrats to BKSheikah for winning the BYIG Guru Challenge! <cite>LordoftheMorons posted [p:904097093] in Politics C...
