I believe they just changed the law....commit a crime...out you go...now.
In other words, they should have already been out of here.
Christians?? I doubt it.
It would bear some quiet investigation. Let’s send someone to check out what goes on, in their churches. If it isn’t even churches, then well sorry Charlie, we might have a soft spot for Christians but not for utter pretenders, and you won’t be in trouble if we send you back to a Muslim country.
No ex post facto law... that makes it odd.
Well if the crimes are all 20 years old, and they haven’t been a problem since, I don’t have a problem letting them remain.
But the article only says some of the crimes are old. And I don’t see where we have a moral obligation to let immigrants who are committing crimes in this country remain.
Living in their home countries didn’t kill them before they came here. And if it will kill them to go back, then maybe they should have thought about that before they committed crimes here.
I consider drug dealers/pushers to be the moral equivalent of murder.
It’s easy to moralize, harder to remember that God has a funny way of causing such moralizations to devolve on our own heads.
No, but I think owning a foreign car was.
And also you would tar the entirety of a group based on the characteristics of the group lumped together?
The problem with that is that there is no deterrent to committing crime except fear of deportation. Seems to me like they should have to serve the prison term and then be deported. That would be a better deterent than the worst that happens if you get caught is you get deported.
They’re actually being deported under the existing law at the time. OSIS
They can be sent to Kurdistan, where IIRC most remaining Iraqi Christians reside, and where they aren’t being persecuted.
The Kurds owe the US a great deal and no doubt something can be arranged.
Are they Christians? Or are they proven criminals simply looking for the best way to get asylum
I have met Chinese who have been coached to tell government interviewers they are Christians or members of Fa Lun Gong, and fear persecution if sent to China.
Nice.
Maybe Barack let them be in order to have a card to play.
Anyhow, the law also says we shouldn’t have any DACA, and yet Trump is doing it.

You know we have a God given responsibility to enact social justice.
You can’t shirk that.
These guys committed crimes, there is no reason to let them stay here.
I really don’t want to feed and clothe them for ten years. Get them out.
Send them to Europe
It isn’t just nice, it’s true.
Romans 13 emphasizes that the government should be bringing “the wrath of GOD.” When it brings men’s wrath, we get repercussions.
It’ll come. It’s still in the courts. One thing at a time.
The law may not have a fine enough attention to details to follow the intent of God.
What if they were pardoned?
