Illegal aliens have no business being here. Period. How is it wrong to judge them for that? No one forced them to come here, let alone steal a job. No one forced them to have kids either.

I love how you and your ilk compare illegal immigration to getting a speeding ticket If I got a speeding ticket, I would own up to it and pay the ticket. Compare that to illegal aliens who wail and gnash their teeth if they get caught. They expect everybody to feel sorry for them and reward them with amnesty for breaking our immigration laws.

If an illegal gets deported and sneaks right back in here, it's a felony. Ponder that.

You feel so sorry for them? Move a family into your home and pay for their immigration lawyers.

Got me on speeding. I guess I need to adopt an 'open borders / never deport' stance because I drive a few ticks over on the highway. It's so simple.

And, the biggest part? They are being placed on a list AFTER they commit further crimes against citizens of this country.
So, tell me again how that's anything like the Nazis?
If this site lead to people having a problem ONLY with the people listed on the site, I would not have an issue with it.

But, 9/11 taught me that people in the US will turn on an entire religion or ethnicity quite easily.

As for "VOICE" --- it will list illegal aliens who have committed crimes past the crime of entering this country illegally. Some of these illegals have been deported several times only to sneak right back in here. And yet you're worrying about demonizing them

Do you think that the sex offender registry has caused anyone to generalize and attack innocent people?

VOICE doesn't care about the race of any illegals. The worst of the worst come in all shapes and sizes.
The sex offender registry is a practical tool.

I don't need to know who was speeding in Peoria. Or anywhere else.

My state already has a mug shots website I can browse if looking up people who recently broke the law is something I feel like doing.

EVERYONE around here who has been arrested is on it.

You're right comparing an American getting a speeding ticket as justification of millions invading our
country llegally is so ridiculous that it is beyond words.

Call it an "easily repeatable phrase", but I honestly, and truly believe that this country is screwed and nothing other than the rise of a literal dictator can shake this ignorant population into waking up. What the hell are people doing? We just saw two months of a heaping trash fire of a presidency actively try to wedge divides between people and pass unconstitutional drivel. This president is corrupt, with easily verifiable ties to a foreign nation that has for decades tried to influence the country's most influential positions by illicit means. He's an international embarrassment every single day his swamp ass is on that chair in the Oval Office. And today, even his biggest detractors are piling praise onto his lap for standing on a podium and reading. They're praising the same speech in which he announced VOICE as "presidential".

Let me just repeat that, they're praising the same speech in which he announced Nazi Germany tactics as "presidential".

You'll forgive me if I think this country is screwed. Because for the very first time, I can confirm with 100% certainty that it is. I could've seen us a way out of it had there been unrelenting, sustained opposition to his bullcrap and have the population and the press cut through the bullcrap for 2 years, and maybe, MAYBE in 2018 people would've woken up to reality to vote enough Democrats into office to begin a formal impeachment process. Maybe. But it's not gonna happen for the same reason you said. This was never a change of heart from the media, all they wanted was a boom-bust cycle, and this entire time this has just been another ****ty narrative they pushed just to turn it around and push the other way for ratings on both sides. It's all kinds of disgusting, the notion that they're doing this with this presidency that's pushing this agenda is disgusting.

Why would you be "terrified?" Are you also "terrified" of things like lists of "sex offenders" in your area?

I think there's concern because most of us see how this is going to go. call me a skeptic but I see it happening a few ways. Trump wants to backup his arbitrary claim about immigrants. Since this group/website is going to control and data and message, it will be skewed. We'll see how it is done but I can see they simply putting stats with no actual valid information...nothing for the actual Press to critique and verify. This is Trump controlling the message. This info that cannot be verified will then be used in his promotional material and ads in support of his agenda. Even if it is proven false, i'm sure they will discredit the actual real media and leave up false information.

This is going to follow the same pattern with the travel ban. He makes an arbitrary decision and then tries to make up facts to justify it. A real President and leader would go where the facts take him and make a rational decision.
