More "everyone I don't agree with is a Nazi" allusions and comparisons.
I understand why it bothers you
Doesn't make it any less valid. You tell yourself whatever you have to to sleep at night - and get as angry as you need to in public
I'm good with it

Why don't the two of you go find another website to troll, instead of ruining every thread you post to with all your lies and misinformed information you try and pass off as being truth. I'm being dead serious. People have corrected you on misinformation you're spreading and you go to another thread and start spewing the same exact lies and misinformation. It's pathetic and ignorant as hell.

Please cite that law.
Asylum seekers, per international law MUST apply for asylum in the very first country they enter.
CONVENTION AND PROTOCOL RELATING TO THE STATUS OF REFUGEES
Article 31
REFUGEES UNLAWFULLY IN THE COUNTRY OF REFUGEE
1. The Contracting States shall not impose penalties, on account of their illegal entry or presence, on refugees who, coming directly from a territory where their life or freedom was threatened in the sense of article 1, enter or are present in their territory without authorization, provided they present themselves without delay to the authorities and show good cause for their illegal entry or presence.
Traversing several countries to get to the U.S., while refusing an offer of asylum by a country in which they are currently located, is not compliant with this article.
UN law is not US law.
But the U.S. is a signatory of the 1967 protocol in this case, which includes article 1 as stated above. So therefore, your comment is moot.
If the U.S. was not, then we could simply refuse access outright based upon a presidential EO.
Which came first 1967 or 1980?
The later law supersedes the earlier.
The presidential executive order must be lawful compliant with existing law otherwise a 9th circuit judge might just rule it out!
Please, provide a valid source (not Wikipedia) stating the 1980 agreement supersedes article 1....and that the U.S. is a signatory.
The US must necessarily be a signatory to its own acts and statutes.
... and the US is NOT a signatory to the 1967 UN protocol.
... and any applicable later revision of an earlier law supersedes that earlier law.
How much cognitive dissonance can you endure before comprehension rises in your eyes like the sun over a Pacific seascape?
Really....
States Parties to the 1951 Convention relating to the Status of Refugees and the 1967 Protocol
The united States is listed as of Nov 01, 1968.
They were at the convention. That's what it says.
Where's the signature?
Now, you are just being ridiculous and willfully ignorant.
This conversation is over if you fail to understand how International Agreements work.
Swim in your ignorance....and welcome one of these "asylum seeker" families, and their aunts, uncles, cousins, grandparents, etc... into your home now.
Put up or shut up...
With the Refugee Act of 1980, the U.S. brought the refugee definition into our domestic law. The refugee definition is found at section 101(a)(42) of the Immigration and Nationality Act (INA)

The lessons we should learn from history have to be repeated for every new generation.
So what your saying that Europe and America should keep its borders open for so called migrants? whom which the majority of them are all men? and criminals? yeah sounds like a great idea and what a great idea of comparing whats happening to WW.
The majority are men but I doubt that the majority are criminals.
Look at the Honduran crime rates for your answer sport...
I assure you a decent amount are fleeing the authorities rather than hardship. Your moral posturing doesn't work on us.Of course you'd pull the Hitler card...
Did you know that Hitler accused the Jews of all being criminals and sexual degenerates. He sent children and young mothers with babies to the gas chambers. Well he had to apply the final solution evenhandedly, didn't he?
Hitler also accused Jews of conspiring with other nations, rigging elections, and blowing up the Reichstag.
What's your point?
Do you not have a concept of national sovereignty?

Unfortunately I believe these invaders will be granted access across the border, with or without “asylum”, legally or illegally. There are too many people here (judges, politicians, socialists) who will make sure they’re seen as the great humanitarians who spited Trump and his followers and led the progressives to a great win for the world.
It saddens me to see people waving another country’s flag throwing rocks at our law enforcement agencies attempting to bypass the laws that govern the very land they want into to. It saddens me more that so many would willingly allow it to happen.
Preposterous statement, they will be vetted and processed...
Sure about that? The last time it was done you all made a huge stink about a fully furnished Walmart and caged children pics from 2014..

What is your vested interest in our immigration laws and procedures?
Why the hell do you care?
Mind your own business.
Edit:
Nevermind, you're part of the idiot duo that thinks Hitler comparisons in a policy discussion are appropriate.
