Minnesota state representative admits she is in the US illegally during legislative debate

She is a US citizen.
 
it wasn't her though it was her parents

still - understand that when breaking laws are justified for one thing or by one group that anyone/everyone can break laws and self justify them too. Open that pandora's box, see where it goes
 
You just changing the topic that's just a different political issue

Like electing a convicted felon president?
 
Melania Trump and Elon Musk were also undocumented at one point in time
 
Not true at all


Very true

Housing prices show this.

Homes are expensive in New York city because people want to live there.

Alabama Housing is cheap because people don't want to live there. Very little demand means low prices.

High demand high prices

A lot of drivers dangerously exceeding the speed limit on America's roads.
 
There is a value to society for allowing humanitarian flexibility to the rule of law.

Think of the 1000s of times a day judges reduce punishment for those caught speeding. How they consider a defendants background before sentencing.
Wouldn't that be... as was in the case for both high profile examples given... have the offenders work through the legal system for legal residency? That's always been available.

Not true at all. Increased supply explains that.

illegally yes

if you could, would you reduce illegal driving by 90% ?

but you bring up another point - the millions of illegally here drivers who drive without licenses/insurance .... its a huge problem
 
A convicted felon has committed illegal acts, yes.

That’s what being a convicted felon means

I didn't know that - can you point me to it being illegal for someone with a record to run for office please ? (in this context)

For most illegals legal residency is not available.
 
that wasn't illegal was it ?
Do you think electing a convicted felon to the hoghest office in the land is appropriate.

Does that justify breaking laws?

Go ahead and break laws. Be a convicted felon. You can still be president.

A bigger danger than undocumented immigrants, for sure.

I’m not sure the supporter of a President taking bribes in plain site should be championing this statement too much.

Yah know man.

They seem so happy.

And I think to myself holy ****, should I become an ignorant, authoritarian dick sucking, hateful piece of shit person too?

I’m miserable because I know how all this ends…

Maybe I’d be happier the other way.
 

Good on Rep. Vang. Minnesota is fortunate to have her. Ms. Vang is lucky that ICE didn't hunt her down in a raid, ignore due process and man her off to Vietnam where life for her would likely be a nightmare much as it is for current illegals and those waiting for the naturalization process to begin.
