There are poor-ass countries like Jordan who get 10x as many refugees as we do and STILL keep them in better condition than that.

Jordan is 30x smaller than us, gets 10s as many refugees as us, and STILL figures out how to make it work.
i doubt you're actually gonna provide evidence or pictures of these accommodating jordanian refugee villas and hotels

Cause you were never put into cages to begin with, you fukking dunce. :snoop:
so how the fukk do you suggest keeping track of all these people? why don't you get on CNN and tell the border patrol how to do this effectively without hurting rachel maddow's feelings?

they come here without being asked, and to keep track of them they put them into an enclosed space. how the fukk else would it work :what:

You're talking like Trump's reality is the only one we've ever known. :dead:

Hmmm, how else would it work, maybe we can just look at WHAT THEY USED TO DO JUST TWO YEARS AGO? :heh:

You accept the petition for asylum, do an initial screening and interview, take their prints and all that, and schedule them a court date. And if they don't show up, their petition gets denied and they become an illegal immigrant subject to deportation.

So the MAGA set and their sympathizers will say, "That doesn't work fool, those black and brown people don't show up for no court dates!" :beli:


Hmmm, let's evaluate that. Before Trump started hating on refugees, what % do you think were showing up for their court dates?

Just 20%? 50%?

Try 93%

93% of asylum seekers who were released to their own recognizance came back for their court date which would determine asylum or deportation. There wasn't a serious problem with people not showing back up. Only 1 in 14 asylum seekers failed to return. And many of those who didn't return ended up getting deported.

Even now, with all the hate Trump projects and all the people getting denied in court? In 2017, with Trump in power hating on immigrants but before he started the "zero tolerance" policy, they still had 89% of asylum seekers show up for their court dates that year.

There is no problem.



In fact, the % of asylum seekers who skip out of court (7%) was virtually the same as the % of Americans who skip bail (8%). So what, you want to eliminate the bail system too? But our country doesn't have close to the jail facilities to house them, and those people skipping are actual criminals, not just Trump's hypothetical criminals. So you want to stash everyone who gets arrested into razor-wire cages under bridges too?

fine, and they have to be put somewhere while you're processing them. :what:

isn't that what we're crying about in here? the fact that we didn't put these thousands and thousands of people up at the ritz carlton? changing the subject is a bad faith argument :jayfdup:

"You" are the reason why Trump will win in 2020.

Majority of white "democrats" are moderates that lean to the right because the Republicans support issues that benefit white people.

The republican idelogy is becoming more mainstream and socially acceptable so the white dems like yourself wont feel guilty speaking publicly about and voting republican

It only takes a short amount of time to process people, that would be logistically simple if not for all the draconian things Trump has been doing to hold people for extra time. There aren't so many asylum seekers coming over in the course of a single day that you "have" to put them up under a bridge surrounded by razor wire.

and you know that how, your extensive experience as a border patrol agent?

you really think everyone who works that job is a fukkin nazi SS officer? the sheer number of people that show up at that border is ridiculous, and it's resulted in less than ideal condition while they wait for processing. and if they don't like it then they don't have to show up at all :childplease:

I know that because the # of asylum seekers coming over daily is public information. :childplease:

Use your head instead of your emotions for once.

On average, less than 200 asylum seekers come over the border in a single day.

Trump sent 15,000 troops to the border right before the election in order to make a dramatic political point.


Hmmm...how da fukk is there housing for 15,000 troops if it is so insanely difficult to figure out where to house 200 asylum seekers? :jbhmm:


If you really feel like our ONLY option for housing a couple hundred people is to stick them under a bridge surrounded by razor wire, you must think we're a fukking resourceless third-world country or something.

what's gotten lost in all this is what exactly you think should be happening instead of the horror of them having to stand behind a chain link fence when they showed up in a foreign country unannounced. what was your plan again?

You process them and give them a hearing date. Then you release them. There are plenty of charities who would be willing to help them figure things out for a little bit.

if you really feel that you HAVE to take 2-3 days to process them instead of one, then build enough humane facilities to house a hundred or so refugees at each major crossing. It's not an insane expense.

Like I said, $3.4 million every weekend Trump flies to Mar a Lago to play golf, but we pretend it's impossible for us to house a couple hundred people humanely.

would you stop deflecting to mar a lago :mjlol:

if they can't sit behind a chain link fence for a couple days, then maybe they should reconsider coming here in the first place :yeshrug: and clearly they aren't, so you tell me why this is something that really needs to be addressed
