Dems in 15 States Sue Over Trump DACA Action [semi-satire]
Semi-News/Semi-Satire ^ | 10 Sep 2017 | John Semmens

Democrat Attorney-Generals in 15 states plus the District of Columbia have filed suit against President Trump for his executive action overturning former President Obama's executive decree on Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA). Trump justified his countering executive decree by pointing out that Obama lacked the authority to unilaterally modify US immigration law. Trump's decree goes into effect in six months—a time span giving Congress the opportunity to handle the issue in a legal and constitutional fashion.

Nonetheless, the suing AGs described Trump's action as "illegal" and "unfair." New York Attorney General Eric Schneiderman cast Trump's argument that only Congress can enact laws as "putting adherence to the law ahead of human decency. Whether President Obama had the legal right to enact DACA isn't as important as whether it was the right thing to do. We're hoping that the court will see past the legalities and confirm the fundamental justice of the DACA decree. These childhood immigrants are blameless. They have become accustomed to living in the United States. They shouldn't be punished for the crimes committed by their parents."

Schneiderman brushed aside the possibility that the suit may be premature since Congress may actually pass a law within the six-month grace period allowed by Trump's executive action. "No person's fate should be held hostage to a contingency that Congress will take timely measures to deal with an issue," he asserted. "We have all seen how little Congress has accomplished over the past eight months. It would be foolish to count on this body to respond in an expeditious manner to the artificial deadline imposed by President Trump."

For his part, Trump further muddled the issue by tweeting that he "may revisit the issue should Congress fail to act." This is the same rationale used by Obama when he stepped outside the bounds of his authority to institute the DACA program.

In related news, Chicago Mayor Rahm Emmauel slammed Trump's DACA move and declared "our City will always remain a safe haven for those pursued by immigration authorities. The same is not the case for Mr. Trump himself. He is barred from entering and police have orders to use whatever force is required to see that he stays away."

I don’t get it.

Obummer ILLEGALLY writes a new law, by means of Executive Order. He said he couldn’t legally do it, then he did it anyway.

Trump gives Congress six months to pass such a law, if they want it badly enough, or else he will drop the hammer on the illegal law.

Now we see over a dozen states suing to KEEP the illegal law.

Wait ... the law was never passed and therefore doesn’t exist, yet these states are suing to keep it? Doesn’t anybody read the Constitution anymore? Doesn’t anybody ENFORCE the Constitution?

Amazing. Parents send their kids away unaccompanied. I can only see this if they are wanna be gang bangers. They are in essence flushing their toilet.

Parents of illegals send their kids across the border unaccompanied.

Exactly. Is this not child abuse....and neglect?

===========================================

To hear them whine, the DACA QUACKERS aren't responsible for being in our country illegally....it was "someone else" that dragged them here kicking and screaming. Oh wait...it was their illegal alien parents.

The parents deliberately put their children in harm's way and subjected them to "onerous racist laws" and possible physical harm in a country "they say" is teeming w/ "xenophobic, hate-filled people, that demonstrate bias and animus toward latinos."

The parents willfully ignored their responsibilities......they foisted their young helpless children on a "despotic, racist state" and expected others (US taxpayers) to medicate, school, feed, clothe and shelter their children.

Rampant child neglect is apparent here....neglect is a form of child abuse.
