Message to the little girl worried mommy and daddy will be deported

I got all of those quotes from here:
What the Bible Says About How to Treat Refugees

Please do not quote scripture...

Why, afraid it'll become obvious that Jesus would want no part in the anti immigrant furor going around in the U.S.?

Anti-ILLEGAL Immigrant.

Laws are not necessarily ethical.

Jesus actually told people to follow the law,

Are you referring to the line "Render unto Caesar the things that are Caesar's, and unto God the things that are God's"?

Was reading about the entry on that passage in wikipedia, and came up with some text that essentially reflects my viewpoint on that:
**
Ammon Hennacy interpreted Matthew 22:21 slightly differently. He was on trial for civil disobedience and was asked by the judge to reconcile his tax resistance with Jesus' instructions. "I told him Caesar was getting too much around here and some one had to stand up for God." Elsewhere, he interpreted the story in this way:

[Jesus] was asked if He believed in paying taxes to Caesar. In those days different districts had different money and the Jews had to change their money into that of Rome, so Jesus asked, not for a Jewish coin, but for a coin with which tribute was paid, saying "Why tempt me?" Looking at the coin He asked whose image and superscription was there inscribed and was told that it was Caesar's. Those who tried to trick Him knew that if He said that taxes were to be paid to Caesar He would be attacked by the mobs who hated Caesar, and if He refused to pay taxes there would always be some traitor to turn Him in. His mission was not to fight Caesar as Barabbas had done, but it was to chase the moneychangers out of the Temple and to establish His own Church. Whether He winked as much as to say that any good Jew knew that Caesar did not deserve a thing as He said, "Render unto Caesar what is Caesar's and unto God what is God's," or not, no one knows.
…Despite what anyone says each of us has to decide for himself whether to put the emphasis upon pleasing Caesar or pleasing God. We may vary in our reasons for drawing the line here or there as to how much we render unto Caesar. **

No, I'm not referring to that passage. Perpetually confused as usual<3

All of my people came here legally via Ellis Island.

How fortunate that they were able to do so.

My Mom kissed the ground at JFK when her flight landed, even Christ himself would tell you to please go fuck yourself

I think that's one of the most denigrating interpretations of Jesus I've ever heard -.-. Fortunately, many are of a rather different view regarding the teachings of Jesus. Some quotes from the Bible...

"God Loves the Foreigner Residing Among You
He defends the cause of the fatherless and the widow, and loves the foreigner residing among you, giving them food and clothing. And you are to love those who are foreigners, for you yourselves were foreigners in Egypt. (Deuteronomy 10:18-19)"

Do Not Oppress a Foreigner
Do not oppress a foreigner; you yourselves know how it feels to be foreigners, because you were foreigners in Egypt. (Exodus 23:9)

Invite the Stranger In
For I was hungry and you gave me something to eat, I was thirsty and you gave me something to drink, I was a stranger and you invited me in, I needed clothes and you clothed me, I was sick and you looked after me, I was in prison and you came to visit me.’ (Matthew 25:25-36)

We Were All Baptized By One Spirit
Just as a body, though one, has many parts, but all its many parts form one body, so it is with Christ. For we were all baptized by one Spirit so as to form one body—whether Jews or Gentiles, slave or free—and we were all given the one Spirit to drink. Even so the body is not made up of one part but of many. (1 Corinthians 12:12-14)

Love Your Neighbor as Yourself
For the entire law is fulfilled in keeping this one command: “Love your neighbor as yourself." (Galatians 5:14)

Have Mercy on Your Neighbor
He asked Jesus, “And who is my neighbor?”

In reply Jesus said: “A man was going down from Jerusalem to Jericho, when he was attacked by robbers. They stripped him of his clothes, beat him and went away, leaving him half dead. A priest happened to be going down the same road, and when he saw the man, he passed by on the other side. So too, a Levite, when he came to the place and saw him, passed by on the other side. But a Samaritan, as he traveled, came where the man was; and when he saw him, he took pity on him. He went to him and bandaged his wounds, pouring on oil and wine. Then he put the man on his own donkey, brought him to an inn and took care of him. The next day he took out two denarii and gave them to the innkeeper. ‘Look after him,’ he said, ‘and when I return, I will reimburse you for any extra expense you may have.’

“Which of these three do you think was a neighbor to the man who fell into the hands of robbers?”

The expert in the law replied, “The one who had mercy on him.”

Jesus told him, “Go and do likewise." (Luke 10:29-37)

Anti-ILLEGAL Immigrant. Jesus actually told people to follow the law, so no, he would not support criminals. It's actually full retard to claim he would support people breaking the law. You shouldn't attempt to quote the Bible if you actually know nothing about it.

Ummmm... Jesus himself broke the law, in a YUUUGE way, by trying to overthrow the (Roman) government. Think about it.
Further, when his cousin John "the Baptist" started amassing an army before him, he supported John too.

Not sure where you're pulling this idea that Jesus was ever buddy-buddy with "the law".

It's okay to be wrong, you're rarely right, but I like you, anyway<3
1 Peter 2:13-17
"Be subject for the Lord's sake to every human institution, whether it be to the emperor as supreme, or to governors as sent by him to punish those who do evil and to praise those who do good. For this is the will of God, that by doing good you should put to silence the ignorance of foolish people. Live as people who are free, not using your freedom as a cover-up for evil, but living as servants of God. Honor everyone. Love the brotherhood. Fear God. Honor the emperor."
Because their first duty was to God, there were times when it was necessary, but followers of God were also supposed to be followers of the law.

Stop it. Just fucking stop it

Why? Are you allergic to the truth or something?

No, but you, as a Socialist, are.

Come on Pumpkin, you can do better than that. How about an actual example, you know, some evidence that I am "allergic to the truth"?

Do you believe in Sharia law too? Frank Herbert said it best:
"Law always chooses sides on the basis of enforcement power. Morality and legal niceties have little to do with it when the real question is: Who has the clout?"

I think the best rule is simply to do what you think is right as much as you can. I think as a general rule, it's best to work within the framework of existing laws, but only if those laws are just. To give a simple example: freeing slaves was once illegal, but it was -always- the right thing to do.

In other words, you're okay with murdering randoms as long as the murderer thinks it was just. I'll have to let all the disturbed people I meet know that you condone their actions.

I guess I worded the above a little to simplistically. There are laws that are ethical and there are laws that aren't. I'm sure you agree that Sharia Law has its flaws, no? Would you follow them to a T if you were in a country that had such laws? All I'm saying is that we should try to do what's right when possible. This doesn't mean we'll always know what choices are right, and if we are mentally disturbed, that would be even more true. But there is a lot to be said about following your conscience above all else. Here's a few lines that I think hammer my point in:

**
First they came for the Socialists, and I did not speak out—
Because I was not a Socialist.

Then they came for the Trade Unionists, and I did not speak out—
Because I was not a Trade Unionist.

Then they came for the Jews, and I did not speak out—
Because I was not a Jew.

Then they came for me—and there was no one left to speak for me.**

[bripat9643]

We're ALL immigrants, (except, perhaps the Native Americans, and they're only a few millennia Native, anyhow!), and to adopt the stance that those less fortunate have no right to the opportunities we all enjoy, is unChristian, at least.

No one as a right to immigrate to this country. Only a moron would entertain such a notion.

Checked out the comments to that link. Found this rather interesting one:
**According to the article, out of those 27505 people 20333 were immigration charges leaving only 7172 being charged for other criminal activities in 2014. If government and 3rd party estimates are correct than about 300,000 people came across the border illegally in 2014. That puts the statistical percentage of the criminal element in that group (outside of the immigration illegalities) at just over 2.39%.**

This one's even better ;-)...

 

[flacaltenn]

Well, the Kahns, just for one.
And all the illegals he systematically underpays to work on his building projects, Alicia Machado,....
Do you want more?

It's funny how Mr. Kahn was connected to the terrorist group the Muslim brotherhood....and that you are totally fuckimg clueless of that.....

Kahns dont deserve respect, they didnt earn respect. Their son? yes. them? no. only reason they had a son in the first place is because dad got drunk and tapped mom instead of the goat. Muslim couple shares a bed with a goat and sooner or later its bound to happen.

That's actually disgusting. And degrading and clueless also. Those folks are Americans. They might have poor choices in politics, but you don't deserve the freedom their son gave you to say those things. Because the KEY to freedom and liberty is TOLERANCE. If you're not tolerant of allowing OTHERS their freedom, then NOBODY gets any. No goats for you..

 

[flacaltenn]

go tell mommy and daddy it's wrong to break laws, and America is great, because in many places they'd be dead.





<sniff>

The little kids are Americans too. And deporting Mommy/Daddy for acts committed 25 or 40 years ago and leaving the kids here is not necessary at all. Most STAUNCH "deport them people" don't realize a simple truth. And that is that those KIDS are not gonna be leaf blowers, janitors, nurse's aides. They are gonna be the PROFESSIONALS, and LEADERS of America's future.

I worked with Mex-Americans in Silicon Valley. All the way from 1st gen to 6th or 7th gen. And they have contributed GREATLY to that region and it's economy. The problem is a government that REFUSES to document "guest workers" and temporary working arrangements. You don't fix this leaving ANY people "undocumented". Not required to give them full citizenship. But it IS REQUIRED to have CONTROL of the border to document and regulate immigration.

You are making scapegoats out of Granny/Pappa, when either the Repubs or the Dems could have FIXED this fucking problem in one week. By enforcing the EXISTING LAW that says nobody can hire UNdocumented workers. When you realize it was always that simple, kick yourself in the ass for being manipulated into hatred for those folks who have been here for 30 years.

It's a massive failure of govt. ON PURPOSE. Because of the political advantages of having this convenient source of temporary (one generation) cheap labor or questionable faithful voters.

Enforce the damn law. Make govt do it's PRIMARY CONSTITUTIONAL duties instead of design lightbulbs, whining about energy drinks and giving corporate handouts. THEN --- we can ALL be more "liberal" about immigration..

**According to the article, out of those 27505 people 20333 were immigration charges leaving only 7172 being charged for other criminal activities in 2014. If government and 3rd party estimates are correct than about 300,000 people came across the border illegally in 2014. That puts the statistical percentage of the criminal element in that group (outside of the immigration illegalities) at just over 2.39%.**

And this is not significant enough to put a stop to all this? We have enough problems with our own criminals yet alone invite more to come over.

Federal charges are for federal crimes. And did you ever ask yourself why Democrats voted down Kate's Law? The law would have imprisoned felon illegals who came back here after being deported. It would have also eliminated funding to cities that considered themselves sanctuary cities.
