  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

I'm for proof that they are here legally with some form of ID or workers permit to keep this from happening to innocents.
Which means that you'll need ID as well.

So I need to carry my birth certificate, passport etc. on job sites from now on ? I guess I'll dig it up since I am a first generation Cuban with brown hair, brown skin and brown eyes. Repugnant.
Just do not be surprised when you are detained regardless of the ID you have on hand. I guess a little jail time only hurts for a while during and after the utterly humiliating and potentially physically harmful experience.

That might not be enough: Can Undocumented Immigrants Get a Driver’s License?

'...the District of Columbia and the following 16 states allow undocumented immigrants to obtain driver’s licenses:

  • California
  • Colorado
  • Connecticut
  • Delaware
  • Hawaii
  • Illinois
  • Maryland
  • Nevada
  • New Jersey
  • New Mexico
  • New York
  • Oregon
  • Utah
  • Vermont
  • Virginia
  • Washington

Wow, I've lived in seven of those states for more than 6 months. I wonder if there's a connection.

Reports of Navajo people being detained in immigration sweeps sparks concern from tribal leaders

“We now know that Navajo people and enrolled members of other tribes are being detained in Phoenix and other cities by ICE,” Navajo Nation Council Speaker Crystalyne Curley said during a committee meeting on Thursday. “The reports that we have received indicate that we need to coordinate an operation or some type of response to help our enrolled tribal members here on the Navajo Nation.”

On Thursday, Navajo tribal leaders reported that they have received calls and text messages from Navajo people living in urban areas who have been stopped, questioned or detained by ICE. Those reports sparked outrage among Navajo Nation Council members and prompted a detailed discussion of the topic during a Naabik’íyáti’ Committee meeting.

“These raids have sparked significant fear, especially among tribal members in urban areas who face challenges with documentation,” the Navajo Nation Council said in a press release. A verified number of the Navajo people who have been detained was not shared during the committee meeting.

Maria, what can I say? He told you wanted he wanted to do. It's why you voted for him. It's a bit late to now complain that he's doing it.

She has no problem with President Trump deporting illegals, just not her illegals.

I think just a drivers license will do .. the computer will immediately confirm your residence status. If they're smart they just scan your ID with Immigration phone and within seconds a result will be known.

....you grossly over estimate the data systems of ICE. I mean one would assume a drivers license will do....then again, 23 years after 9/11, we still don't have "Secure ID (aka Real ID)" deployed in all 50 states.

....and Trump is not happy with the current deportee numbers.....from this past weekend:

U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement officials have been directed by Trump officials to aggressively ramp up the number of people they arrest, from a few hundred per day to at least 1,200 to 1,500, because the president has been disappointed with the results of his mass deportation campaign so far, according to four people with knowledge of the briefings.

So now ICE has a quota....I can only imagine the quality of their "screening" will go up!

According to the DHS website, all states and territories are real ID compliant.

I am aware of other states as well, but that's what the government website says.

So if we have 12 million to deport then that should take about..(gets calculator out)...27 years.
