As I said, "half serious".

As I said, "half serious". The implication was those willing and able to take on such a journey might likely be good hard-working citizens, not that I wholly believe that - a one-shot feat doesn't equal morals & ethics nor longer-term endurance or useful contributions.

Wholly nonsense. There's

In reply to Half serious - if they can

Wholly nonsense. There's likely tens of millions who would hike a thousand or even a few thousand miles to get to America if that was the criterion for a work permit.

In reply to also then that made me think

Half serious - if they can hike 1000 miles, good candidates for work permits, no?

yeah, as far as the caravan,

In reply to also then that made me think

yeah, as far as the caravan, while coming from the same continent, I would thin it's no way Jose, not right now, you stay where you are unless you got the money to pay you got a negative covid test today and you have money for 7 days at a hotel

All Travelers to U.S. Will Need to Quarantine and Show Negative COVID Test Result

Anyone over the age of two planning on entering the U.S. after January 26 will need to be armed with a negative COVID test.

President Joe Biden signed a new executive order making a test prior to arrival in the United States from abroad, as well as a 7-day quarantine after arrival, mandatory. [....]

this is not the time for this, we're in a mess where the previous administration hid that enough vaccines weren't ordered, now we are delayed while more full citizens die. Unless they want to be be livein home health care workers willing to die too?

also then that made me think

In reply to Yeah, good point that some

also then that made me think about the current caravan. Peracles said his instinct would be to let them in. BUT who is going to pay for their COVID tests at the border, and care for those who test positive. I'd venture not that many American taxpayers would say: sure, and order 8,000 more vaccines while you're ordering some, Joe.

Yeah, good point that some

In reply to "Free them all" would be

Yeah, good point that some might Willie Horton it.

I rethunk it about the covid argument they are using too. In that it's not at all smart either if they are currently infected, if that is the case they need to be in quarantine, not "free". Epidemiologists don't care whether it was fair or not how you got infected, just that you did. Fair is for later for who survives.

Ok, move on, free and not inflected and not sick but with no papers. How the hell are they supposed to get health care in a pandemic without papers? In NYC, they are having a hard time with the homeless even though they are priority for vaccination. A lot of them don't carry around smartphones and sign up for health dept. texts, I suspect it might be the same situation with these detainees?

"Free them all" would be

In reply to NEW: A federal judge in Texas

"Free them all" would be political suicide. Whoever has fantasies of this should get a grip.

Trump judges would block it and it's Willie Horton MS-13 possibilities would lead Fox News for weeks.

NEW: A federal judge in Texas

In reply to SPLC has a campaign on to pressure Biden to free all ICE detainees

NEW: A federal judge in Texas temporarily blocked the Biden administration’s pause on deportations, delivering a blow to one of the president’s first immigration actions.

The court order stems from a lawsuit filed by Texas AG Ken Paxton. Per @priscialva: https://t.co/62JVLFmAKM

oops should throw in one

In reply to It's definitely smart of them

oops should throw in one recent shocker we had from the election, that there are many more from Hispanic-American citizen demographics, and not just from one or two groups, as many of us used tor presume, who like the "tough on immigration" stance

Geez . . .

Too bad there weren't any radicals painting the following on the walls in 1930 Germany and Poland.
