    Thanks for assuring me that when I got to Mexico next summer that it has to follow the Constitution. Again, I apologize for the sarcasm but hard to take so many Godwin's seriously. I'll ask the same question - who is persecuting the people of Honduras and is it for race, religion, nationality, membership of a particular social group, or political opinions? Do you think the caravan is made up of conservatives on an American college campus?

    So who is persecuting them and for what reasons listed: race, religion, nationality, membership of a particular social group, political opinions? Will Mexico persecute them for these reasons? https://www.uscis.gov/humanitarian/refugees-asylum/asylum Thanks for assuring us we have no one in the country illegally. I do apologize for the sarcasm, but it is hard to take anyone seriously that actually believes some of the national socialist emotion thrown around here.
  3. Exactly. I agree with the sentiment above that cops should be held to much higher standards, but that was an answer to a different question. While I get the outrage machine has to be fueled and funded, this should be considered different IMHO than a "police shooting." This is more akin to the cop in Addison that shot those kids for trying to break in his car (different scenario, but he was not on duty). However, the same "shoot first, ask later" mentality that too many cops have obviously was at play.
  4. I had heard that point in another discussion, which make sense. I'm not convinced the city should be liable, but that's a reasonable connection.

    Iceland has a point.
  6. Count me among those not surprised that those receiving government paychecks in D.C. and the Mensa roster share little overlap.

    It is not nonsense or bullshit when no one can really answer. Anyone intellectually honest knows that they're not actually seeking asylum as defined in our law, and it is a waste of our time and resources processing them. It feels odd on one hand we complain we need more funding for this, that, and the other, but we want to waste money processing a bunch of people who are not being persecuted? I liken it to the city of Dallas, which does not have money to fix potholes or provide key social services to the poor but can find $5M to remove an obscure statue in response to a special interest group. I mean if those are priorities, but I would rather spend money differently. In addition, we do not exactly have a great track record of processing and keeping track of illegal immigrants whether they entered legally or not. If they were truly seeking asylum, they would be tickled to stay in Mexico for the reasons many of described: weather, no national socialist mobs, and culture. The fact they are not underscores what is really going on. So why not have an honest conversation about it. The best solution for everyone seems to be for the caravans to settle in Mexico - still cannot get a clear answer why anyone objects to that.
  8. Anyone no drunk on identity politics emotional hysteria ... How does the fact she was off duty impact potential liability of the city? As a parallel, is it the fact she is a cop or a government employee change the situation as opposed to a private citizen? If she was a waitress at Hooters could the family sue the restaurant chain?

    Straw Man II: Electric Bugaloo. Scattershooting while wondering why accepting Mexican (#noracist) asylum is a bad idea? 1. Better climate (weather) ; 2. Better climate (political); 3. Better climate (cultural). Why is it a bad idea? Rather than emoting about national socialists I'm actually trying to explore solutions.

    The straw man defense! Sweet! I hope ousux employs it as well.

    According to many here, that is all it should take, and we should be obligated to accommodate. Feels like Singapore should start sending planes: its tropical, safe, and lacks the mobs of national socialists terrorizing all brown people daily like here. It meets all of the criteria.

    I hope Watson, Ingram, Ehlinger, and LJ have as much luck dodging ousux Saturday as you do. To my point earlier, many just prefer emotion, which is cool. No harm, no foul. I don't take it personal.

    So now asylum is about weather? Geez - you move goalposts more than the refs in the LSU-aggy game. You're still avoiding the obvious point that Mexico is much safer than the national socialist run U.S. where Trump mobs are killing brown, non-Christian, non-straight, non-males in the streets every day? So tell me why they should not accept the win-win-win of Mexican asylum? (BTW - your ad hom shows your true snowflake cred ... just call me a racist national socialist and get it over with Prof. Godwin)
  14. That's what I thought. Don't they inherently have to be some form of white male Christian oppression? I mean it might decide in the womb or after birth it should change. Why this patriarchal nazi oppression?
  15. This is where my head goes ... I fully support defending oneself. However, given she walked into the apartment - so I assume she was closer to the door - would not the right thing to do would be for her to step out of the apartment, into the lighted hall, and ... I don't know ... call the cops? Then she probably would have figured out she was in the wrong spot. Seems like on the fourth floor he was pretty confined and was not going to escape if she was worried about a robber taking her VCR.

    Whatever the Cowboys did last night should stop. They have great home uniforms - Jerruh needs to stop screwing with them.

    Wait - I thought America was full of racist national socialists killing and persecuting all non-white, non-straight, non-male, non-Christians? How could this possibly be safer than Mexico? They would face no persecution from Trump attack squads that continue to terrorize Americans daily. By your logic, they should be seeking asylum in Singapore.
  18. They key word here is "advocates." World is full of politically motivated junk science often promoted by scientists.

    Reasonably people can disagree, but it at least demonstrates the asylum argument is phony. They don't want asylum they want to come to the U.S. Better conversations start with honest and transparent conversations. I suspect part of the reason people do not trust each other politically is because of the disingenuous nature of the spin.

    This has always been a topic when facts and logic are not on one's side - appeal to emotion. Why discuss a complex issue in a rational way when you can just make hyperbolic ad homs agains anyone who disagrees with you? Much easier than actually engaging intellectually.

    It matters because ostensibly the story is "these people are seeking asylum." Mexico is offering asylum. If they simply stay in Mexico, everyone wins: the migrants receive the asylum they seek, Mexico receives productive citizens, and the U.S. does not face any risk that there is a bad person entering the country. Feels like a simple solution that meets everyone's needs.
  22. I agree. I did not mean to imply the court filings were unbiased and necessarily fact. However, I inferred (possibly incorrectly) that the poster was dismissing the fact there was a dispute based on an ad hom ("fake news") against the web site. Reading the court documents, it seems clear (I'm not a lawyer) that there is a dispute between the parents and that a significant portion of it involves whether to consider the child male or female. No value judgment on who is correct on that question, but the question does seem to be a legitimate court proceeding.
  23. Fair enough ... which might be the most frightening part of all. I think I might have felt better if he was a fake neurosurgeon.

    I fear I'm falling into the same trap. The Cloak Room was fun ... this place is snowflakes armed with neg rep that seem to bully any diverse opinions. (which at least helps explain why so many have hard-ons for national socialists)
  25. Felix - really ... you're such a snowflake that causes you to neg me? You need that outrage fix!
