I agree they're criminals. I don't have any issue in deporting them. I couldn't care less if they were all dropped into the Grand Canyon, never to be heard from again.
I'm saying that there is a difference between engaging in criminal activities and having a criminal record. A criminal record is a very specific thing, and when talking about that in any relation to law enforcement, like deportation, specifics matter.
It seems like people are simply more interested in flexing nuts and posturing in front of the media than they are in addressing the facts of the case.
Because while most people here are snickering and high-fiving each other on "owning da libs" or whatever, the rest of the nation and world looked at that and came to the conclusion that the Trump Administration either a) doesn't understand the difference between two very simple legal terms (scary, considering how powerful we are as a nation) or b) doesn't care what the difference is (perhaps even more concerning).
And of course, this being the public face of Q, which has gained all sorts of recent attention with Trump's second term, we have no telling how many people coming here to check us out, and we have Anons who feel like doubling down on ignorant arguments like the one above.
I don't know what the hell has happened in the last week or so, but it's like there's a very serious case of retardation going on.
I'm in the middle of some other conversations where people are asking if they should pay their income taxes in a few months because they saw where the House introduced some bill about income tax (apparently they think introducing a bill is the same as passing a law and that the new law will take effect in a few months time) and another conversation where someone seems to think other countries will pay tariffs to our government if we don't import as many goods from them as we used to.
Honestly, there's a severe case of The Stupids going around.

I already acknowledged your point in my post, so I'm not sure why you responded as though I hadn't.
The media's goal is to portray all illegal aliens as innocent victims of the big, bad Trump administration. Karoline's response put the focus back on the fact that all illegals are criminals. To have been technically perfect, she could have said, "What's more relevant is that all illegal aliens are criminals who have broken our immigration laws." But I think most reasonable people knew what she was saying, and informed people knew why.

You’re a difficult man, u/BakasEverywhere… and that’s a good thing. Iron sharpens iron and I enjoy your posts.
Details matter. Keep hammering.
