That's good, wouldn't want anyone to get sick 🙂 It will be YUGE/GRANDE though and Mexicans will build it!o:)

#13 delta1

I nominate delta1 for
Department HEAD
OF
THE U.S. COMMERCE DEPARTMENT

GREAT IDEA...
Or use Vietnamese builders and Venezuela's masses
Whose country is falling to pieces...each worker would jump at the chance to earn decent money
To send back home...CHina should back bonds takin' out by mexico for 75% of the cost
and the U.S.for only 25 % of the wall cost , since we have supported
10+% of their population for 20-25 years...

ya... poor Venezuela's masses... I heard they're having to eat flamingos and stuff.... 😞

What if the people who hired illegals were held personally liable for the cost of deportation, and a huge fine per incident. Hand the bill to the owner of the company, or surrender your business and property to auction. I think we're going about this all wrong.

I've said that for years.....but...ain't no self-respecting republican going to hold a business accountable when we can demonize someone who doesn't look or talk like us...just isn't in the dna

^+1

wow... so protecting the country is racist..?? 😕

racist is such a strong word....maybe I should have said "so we can demonize someone who won't vote for us"

I'm no expert on the subject, by any means...in fact, I'm still not convinced there's much of a problem....

But...I just wonder sometimes....if we took just a fraction...maybe 10% of the proposed Wall expenditures...and, instead, put it into workplace/employer enforcement....how much more effective that might be....

And then....as Steve suggested....actually put some tooth into the fines for guilty employers.....then...if you still want to build a wall, pay for it with the fines

ya... should prolly just give them free stuff instead...

I'm not against your idea of prosecuting the illegals supporters... how far you want to take it..?? Mayors of Sanctuary cities too..?? 😕

absolutely!

I think....I'm not sure I fully understand what a 'sanctuary city' is...I think it has lots of definitions....but...if a city refuses to comply with federal law...then, toss the mayor in jail...and withhold federal funding.....if, by sanctuary city, someone means...."if we stop and frisk someone, we're not going to ask for their green card or passport"....well, I'm not sure that is grounds for sending the mayor to prison....

But, if a city has a policy that says "even when we KNOW a dude is illegal....and the feds ask us if the guy is illegal....well, we're just not going to answer"....that's fd up and that city can be hung out to dry

True... true.... 😟




I think on our side of da wall should be a mural of da ocean... that would be cool... 😟

Why stop there. Legal weed states are breaking federal law. Lock up their governors, legislators and all their staff, confiscate the list of users and lock them up too. Politics should be D.C. Based.

One thing at a time Cowboy... one thing at a time.... 😳

ok, victor......it isn't too difficult to imagine that local/geographic drug user laws can be envisioned....and 'regulated'...especially, if sourced locally......however, having states with different immigration laws is sorta 'inconceivable'....

Colorado dope legalization doesn't quite have the same impact on AZ border town that CT ignoring federal immigration laws does...I'm all for states rights, but I kinda see the need for immigration to be a fed thing

Tell that to Nebraska. I'm not kidding. They take huge exception to the CO legalization and its impact (multiple impacts) on their state. It's been a big issue and they want compensation from CO.

Which federal laws are ok to ignore and who decides?

got a list..?? I'll take a look at them for you... 😟

I'm not arguing what you think. I'm not arguing sanctuary cities are ok. I'm arguing legal pot states are not (at this time). I'm not even arguing pro or anti pot or immigrants. Have the balls to change the fed laws (immigration or weed). But as a government official you can't pick and choose which laws to skip.

ya..... Thanks Obama..!! 😠

I probably need to read up before commenting much further....but I will anyway....I think the constitution might say something about feds and immigration.....or at least citizenship....but I don't think it says much about dope
