Remember, taking somebody's license away for continuous drunk driving offenses is too far, but taking away somebody's kid and losing them is a-okay!

For the heinous crime of leaving their country because they wanted to find a better life for their family.

Uh, why would I expect the federal government to sit there and babysit my home and possessions while I am incarcerated for doing a crime? They aren't a nanny or sitter. If I was worried about my possessions and such, I probably shouldn't have committed a crime that put them at risk or had a better plan for how to care for them.

This is truly the most baffling take you've ever had.

Imagine if when you got picked up for your 1st, 2nd, or 3rd DUI that you got home to find out literally everything you own was just...gone. You're honestly going to sit here and say you'd be ok with that "because you shouldn't have broken the law in the first place"?

Nobody believes that, my guy, you yourself think your arrests were bullshit, come on.

Again, where is due process
What would you propose the due process be? If someone is trespassing, do you release them back onto the trespassed property until you can prove they trespassed the first time?

Also this is a good time to remember:

There are American Veterans who (let's not forget how much conservatives love trotting them out when they need them) fought in Vietnam and Iraq, and were PROMISED citizenship who were deported and are separated from their families as well, unable to return until they die (at which point the state will gladly accept them again)

Doesn't seem like it worked well. Nearly 20% did not attend all their hearings as presented above, if we accept those as accurate.

Thus, 1 in 5 do not do what they are supposed to do. 20% is an extremely high rate of not following through which means there is a major risk of not showing and the bail process for that crime is likely not working. Also, considering the fact that releasing said people's back into the country itself is releasing them back into another crime. The appropriate response would be to detain until the case is settled or remove back to home country where the case could be settled from there.

They are still committing the same crime even when they are in US custody.

Corrik doesn't seem to know that by detaining absolutely everyonethe system is over stressed and resources arent being effectively used to selectively target the (few) immigrants with violent histories or who may be involved with the drug cartels.

Corrik also doesn't seem to know that the current administration is making legal immigration all but impossible.

Corrik also doesn't seem to know that when people get arrested their personal objects (including vehicles which can be impounded) are kept track of and they get returned to the individual when they are released.

Corrik also doesn't seem to know that human children are more important than whatever random shit you have in your pockets when you get processed.

:thinking:
What you don't realize is they want to detain parents with their children, but the law forbids them to do so. Thus, you get the situation you have. Maybe the laws should change so the entire family can be detained together before being deported or found innocent and released.

Naw, he's just a truly disgusting human being to his core.

I would assume he would take the stance that even if they located the parents of these children that they should remain separated as a punishment.

Forgive me if he's already actually made that argument.

Disagree

Google has a dominant marketshare on search because they have by far the best search algorithm, not because people are tricked into using it by agreements to make it the default search engine on other platforms.

It's not just their search engine. Google has a pretty strong stranglehold on the online advertising industry-- you literally see Google bidding on Google's exchange against Google with the ad being served via Google's ad server. And of course, they're taking a cut each time.

Until a few years back, Google was effectively stacking the deck in programmatic bidding via their ad server, where they would basically have "last look" advantage. This meant that Google would take a look at the winning bid from a programmatic auction, and then choose to beat it by 1 penny if it was low enough.

Google intentionally walks a fine line to avoid being hit with antitrust stuff but Google and Facebook control so much of the online advertising business that it's been referred to as "the duopoly" for years.

No it doesn't. You said the majority of America agrees with you. This is wrong.

Question 31.

What should be done with a family that enters the US Illegally.

Release the entire family back to their home country together (This is what I said and you cried Due Process)
48% support

Arrest parents and keep the children separate 4% (Of course no one wants this but the legal system has the hands tied here)

Arrest the parents and keep children with them 11%

Release the entire family in the US and require they report for a hearing 21%

not sure 16%

Again. You are not in the majority.

So let's go to the Question 31 breakdown.

Every age group supports release the whole family back to their own country

Every racial breakdown supports release the whole family back to their own country

Independents 52% Send back together
Republicans 64% Send back together

Democrats 37% Send back together 37% Release until hearings

Ideology?

48% to 15% for moderates on release to home country to release til hearing in America
66% to 4% for conservatives
28% to 50% for liberals

It is a liberal cause. It is not the majority of America. It is not anything but self-identified liberals. Every other demographic chooses send family home to home country together.

Also how much of this 15-20% is actual bad faith attempts to dodge consequences versus bureaucratic issues, other issues with accessibility, or the government agencies not giving a shit? Because that stuff can be reduced and these numbers improved!

This is something that really strikes me as baffling that people just don't accept. People will actually just show up to court hearings without being thrown in jail first!

Then you need to get your story in a row. I have already said the best option would be to send them home, where they could have their due process from there.

The problem is you want the law to be followed regarding due process. So, you get the next legal option. You don't release someone back into an active crime and send children to places where they could be lost forever (there is some incompetence that has happened unfortunately.) You detain until trial, keep the children who are also actively in violation as well in a safe place, and you re-unite when a verdict has been rendered whether to their home country or in the USA.

You can't say you want to follow the law in one breath and also not follow the law in the next with detainment separately. That is how the law is formed.

I am sure most people's best choice would be to send them all home to their home country to have their trial from there.

I am sure most people's 2nd best choice would be to detain the family together until the case is resolved and release them together.

20% don't do that. You want a solution that lets 20% of illegal immigrants into the United States versus one that keeps families together and 0%. (And that's just 20% of those caught too).
