Source?

Again, you know you can't back up these claims.

And I believe that most people who "enter illegally" are those who can not obtain the resources to do so through official channels. Full stop.

And given that the Justice Department reports that illegal immigrants commit less crimes than citizens on average , the data supports the belief that illegal immigrants are more likely to only commit the crime of crossing illegally. Which begs the question if we should allow an easier and more supported path for these otherwise innocent and impoverished people to come into the country legally.

But we have veered very far into your feelings at this point (which sadly the facts don't care about), and you keep making unsupported claims to emotion, so it's probably time for you to go to bed. Eh champ? There will still be human rights for you to violate in the morning.

edit: It's cute you dropped the victims of gang violence point when you realized your points would lead to more gang violence. It's tough being you huh?

Just kidding, you couldn't prove that claim even if you wanted too...

Of course I care about the victims of gang violence. Only a monster wouldn't. But many of the asylum seekers who's rights are being deprived are trying to escape gang violence, and are instead being sent right back to it. Many of those being deported are not gang members, but innocent people who lived in the US their whole lives and are being sent to countries or prisons where they will be subjected to gang violence.

Only when it's convenient for your point do you bother to suddenly discover your compassion. What a great way to play with an appeal to emotion to justify dismissing the right to due process.

Here is the difference between you and me, I believe even gang members deserve their day in court. That we should all try our best to ensure the innocent are protected.

We can't do that by just deporting people without due process. We will drop balls we could have caught, mistakenly send innocent people to jails they don't belong in, to countries where they will be subjected to violence.

If they are guilty of gang violence, then let them suffer the consequences of their actions. But don't let the government just throw out a "trust me bro, they were illegal gang members frfr".

Civil rights have to be for everyone, or they can be taken away from anyone.

Because the number is immaterial to the question at hand. It could be 1, or 100, or 1 million. It doesn't change the fact that trying to argue semantics over human rights is inherently inhumane. Nor does it change the fact that these are not just numbers on a spreadsheet.

But frankly, I know you know that. There was never any real value to you asking people for it.

The fact that you ignored my point about Trump's removal of legitimate ways to seek asylum, which undermines the validity of any dataset that could answer your question, is proof enough that you were never asking in good faith. Or do you reckon it was a coincidence that you didn't want a source for that bit?

Though you will have to submit a request to get the records. Shouldn't take too long.

You didn't answer my question btw...

A community, forged by a shared desire to see software and technology be free, open, and driven by passion.

With members who usually find their way here fleeing the profit driven enshittification that so often stifles this pursuit.

And for some unknown reason, they are mad at a company that pursues aggressive litigation against free and open passion projects that were the very embodiment of the community's shared values...

Well that's just a fucking mystery if I've ever seen one!

187,420 and counting. Did the inhumanity of your view change now that you have a number?

I'm assuming you are conveniently ignoring Trump's executive orders that severely limited options for seeking asylum and instead are asking people to search innumerable records to distract from the inhumanity of your position?

Can't deport asylum seekers if seeking asylum is illegal after all.

May those who find themselves with the power to judge your fate have the mercy and compassion you so clearly lack.

I dunno, if you can laugh at yourself, I think Johnny Bravo is far from the worst comparison someone could make about you.

Update: In a statement sent to PC Gamer on Monday, Wizards of the Coast said that the DMCA takedown notice was issued in error: "The Baldur's Village DMCA takedown was issued mistakenly—we are sorry about that. We are in the process of fixing that now so fans and the Stardew community can continue to enjoy this great mod!"

The following update was posted to the linked article about 30 min ago. Probably in response to the backlash, maybe out of the kindness of their hearts? Eitherway, sounds like they are walking back the decision.

It's an odd sort of evangelism. They almost never try to convince you Windows is good, just that everything else is worse.

Is what it is I guess. But at least Iron Pineapple won't be hurting for content anytime soon.

Completely agree. Elden Ring really is uniquely positioned to be "the game" to look at for game designers when seeing the advantages and disadvantages of the open world design. Compared to much of the rest of the industry, it really is the shining example of what an open world can be when the developers are passionate, competent, and truly wanting to make a genuinely great game, not just chasing trends.

 

Turns out my Emotional support Windows installation was just a crutch. But lo and behold, through the power of FOSS I am set free!
