Asylum seekers require a parole (at CBP discretion) in order to temporarily admitted into US. Otherwise they will be held at a detention facility. It is THEIR burden of proof (not the US govt) to prove that they are being prosecuted by their own government back in their country.

If you think someone can just waltz into US because they can say three words “quiero buscar asilo”, then you are mistaken.

Ive processed asylum cases when I was working at the border. In some cases all they have to prove was an old scar from bullet wound on their body

If the Dem party keeps this up, Trump will win in a landslide.

Detention centers are NOT concentration camps.
Ever heard of the Geneva Convention? Even in a time of war, people retain humanity. Well some of y'all never had any.

1) we are not at war with Central Americans otherwise you would see US Marines manning machine guns and tanks at the border, not border agents handling out sandwiches to migrants

2) if dentention camp = POW camp, then this is going to be the first POW camp in human history that hundred of thousands of people RISKING their lives and paying smugglers thousands of dollars just go get in this POW camp

In the end, we will deport them. U.S. public opinion, swayed by leftist swine at every level, from national networks to CD, is not the LAW or NATIONAL POLICY nor is it the right thing to do for AMERICA. You do place AMERICA first, don't you. Needn't answer, we all know the answer is not just "NO", but "HELL NO".
And this is how threads get deleted. And then they think it is a media conspiracy.

I seriously don't even care anymore what AOC says, she's been destroyed (figuratively) so many times in her short political career that she already lacks credibility. When she got demolished by the ICE director, that was when any remaining credibility to her was lost for me.

She's just like the rest of the left; overly emotional with no care for facts, logic, and the law.

Care to give a better counter argument of what I said instead of resorting to personal attack?

Hmmm. What else could we apply your logic to?

There are too many people driving drunk for us to enforce drunk driving laws. We should make it legal to drive drunk.

There are too many murders for us to solve them all. We should make murder legal.

What you’re advocating for is rewarding people who broke the law by giving them exactly what they were after when they broke the law.
