News
Welcome to the News community!
Rules:
1. Be civil
Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only. This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban. Do not respond to rule-breaking content; report it and move on.
2. All posts should contain a source (url) that is as reliable and unbiased as possible and must only contain one link.
Obvious biased sources will be removed at the mods’ discretion. Supporting links can be added in comments or posted separately but not to the post body. Sources may be checked for reliability using Wikipedia, MBFC, AdFontes, GroundNews, etc.
3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.
Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.
4. Post titles should be the same as the article used as source. Clickbait titles may be removed.
Posts which titles don’t match the source may be removed. If the site changed their headline, we may ask you to update the post title. Clickbait titles use hyperbolic language and do not accurately describe the article content. When necessary, post titles may be edited, clearly marked with [brackets], but may never be used to editorialize or comment on the content.
5. Only recent news is allowed.
Posts must be news from the most recent 30 days.
6. All posts must be news articles.
No opinion pieces, Listicles, editorials, videos, blogs, press releases, or celebrity gossip will be allowed. All posts will be judged on a case-by-case basis. Mods may use discretion to pre-approve videos or press releases from highly credible sources that provide unique, newsworthy content not available or possible in another format.
7. No duplicate posts.
If an article has already been posted, it will be removed. Different articles reporting on the same subject are permitted. If the post that matches your post is very old, we refer you to rule 5.
8. Misinformation is prohibited.
Misinformation / propaganda is strictly prohibited. Any comment or post containing or linking to misinformation will be removed. If you feel that your post has been removed in error, credible sources must be provided.
9. No link shorteners or news aggregators.
All posts must link to original article sources. You may include archival links in the post description. News aggregators such as Yahoo, Google, Hacker News, etc. should be avoided in favor of the original source link. Newswire services such as AP, Reuters, or AFP, are frequently republished and may be shared from other credible sources.
10. Don't copy entire article in your post body
For copyright reasons, you are not allowed to copy an entire article into your post body. This is an instance wide rule, that is strictly enforced in this community.

Maybe they could go after the real criminals then?
Immigration laws are civil, not criminal. Undocumented immigrants aren’t criminals.
you saying I'm misunderstanding something doesn't make it true.
As it stands there's 2 situation in which imigration could lead to criminal charges- one is re-entering after deportation. This really doesn't happen. The other is entering at a place or time not designated. This also really doesn't happen. (The people crossing the border are being "caught" by Border Patrol officers because they sit down and wait to be caught, and then invoke their right to seek asylum. something which is legal.)
neither of these are happening. Immigration court isn't even able to try a criminal case, because immigration law is not criminal law.
You got a source on that there bullshit?
Facebook doesn't qualify. neither does twitter. Nor does the 2 Pump Chump.
Here's mine. And some more. oh look, some more
You comfortable with how it's being enforced currently?
Up until it personally affects them, yes, they will be. Condescendingly judgemental pricks are always too short-sighted to ever imagine they'd possibly be subject to their own bullshit hatred.
Historically, those who have been anti-immigration (and almost always nativist) have found themselves on the backfoot of contemporary history; choked and fetted by their own irrational hatred. Oftentimes, they've served as phenomenal kindling to their own demise.
Just another bloated body to be sloughed off.
Based on their brief comment history, yes. Another day, another new account to block (not yours lol).
Then stop whining and sign up as a Brownshirt and tell them how it's done.
And there's always room in the top if you are good at brown nosing.
So what I infer from this comment is that you really want to but are somehow not able, because of age, geographical location, or being 3 racoons in a trenchcoat.
No one is illegal on stolen land.
That's an absurd extrapolation. These people are productive members of society, and homelessness is a solution handled by building housing.
The moral justification for upending people's lives or worse based on the circumstances of their birth and what paperwork they've been able to complete?
I don’t know, and yet ice constantly fucks it up
I have seen very little of the footage I’ve seen of ice through the media. What a weird assumption for you to make. I think they fuck it up because they’re constantly fucking it up.
