Sneaking into America to claim Asylum

[DEAD7]

The first article that I posted literally says “According to Justice Department data from the last five available years, around 60 to 75 percent of non-detained migrants have attended their immigration court proceedings. That’s determined by subtracting the percentage of judgments entered against migrants in their absence (known as an in absentia ruling) from total judgments entered.”

The majority of non-detained applicants show up for court. Those mental gymnastics are something else.

I conceded that point

I guess most do show up.
You win.
High crime/poverty still doesnt make one eligible for Asylum.

Do most show up for deportation when their request is denied?
Approval hovers at around 30% if I remember correctly.

High crime/poverty ≠ political persecution.
Labeling them asylum seekers is dishonest.
They are just people seeking a better life who don’t wanna wait in line...

I conceded that point

Actually you babbled about some “equation” that doesn’t exist, which isn’t really conceding. Hence why I highlighted that paragraph.

trying to move the needle to asylum seekers now

The premise of the thread is people entering the country and claiming asylum because of crime where they are from...
Who has moved any needles or goalpost?

I don't know how to feel about it anymore man. On one hand, we just can't take in every single person that wants to come to America. We just can't. But on the other hand, when you actually have to look at these people, you feel like a dikkhead for telling them to go back to their violent poor third world countries.
