It’s crazy because if it was truly about “criminals” they would find a way to fast track citizenship for those already here who haven’t participated in crime

That doesn’t make any sense, would there be a time requirement? Nobody has committed a crime until they do

Illegal/undocumented immigrants are less than half as likely to commit a crime than native-born Americans. That’s why. Deporting people who haven’t done anything is even more absurd.

Probably a lot simpler then paying a bunch of goons to go round people up 😒🤨 they literally tried to set up an app for “self deportations”

You can argue that’s because of the threat of deportation or a million other factors. Technically all of them have committed a crime if they are undocumented, no matter how benign. And I’m not arguing against immigration in any sense, I’m just saying that fast tracking doesn’t make any sense - if a person crosses the border and doesn’t commit a crime for 1 day should they be fast tracked or should there be other requirements?

That’s the point of the states man, for smaller groups of people to govern themselves.

We love your strawmanning. Shows where your stance is very clearly. By us saying fast-track we are definitely advocating for first-day citizenship. You hit the nail on the head!

I’m not strawmanning, if that’s what you’re advocating for, say that. I was pretty clearly just asking how it would work - but people like you love to make anyone who asks questions or points out flaws in a discussion an instant enemy. Also, pretty hard to strawman when the original comment is literally one scroll up.

Definition: “A straw man fallacy is the informal fallacy of refuting an argument different from the one actually under discussion, while not recognizing or acknowledging the distinction” Their argument: We should have expedited pathways for legal citizenship for illegal immigrants with no record Straw man: “So we should give anyone who comes over to the US and doesn’t commit a crime first day citizenship?!”

Hi, what I actually did is called asking a question that directly addresses #2’s comment and asked for further clarification! 😁 Hope that helps!

Hope it helps that everyone can see through your bullshit and is downvoting you 😁 Love people who try to claim they’re neutral “independents” and then use such blatantly right-wing rhetoric.

It’s pretty self explanatory how it would function, there is loads of media and propaganda behind deportations. If I was president I would first reform what is happening at the border and the citizenship process. Then there would be a self report phase where immigrants can bring family, or other witnesses (employers, neighbors) with them that can help develop a report and secure citizenship. Once their a citizen and a crime is reported it’s then an easier process of finding them, but this allows

People who are here but are afraid of being deported a way of coming forward and continuing to work without the worry of being shipped away. It isn’t perfect, but it’s a hell of a lot better then what’s going on now
