Being here illegally isn't following the rules.
Many were here legally but then suddenly had their refugee status removed - for instance, the Haitian refugees. One day legal, the next revoked. Then there were those who were here legally, going through all the hoops, who got arrested during their immigration check-in. One was taken out just before their naturalization swearing in.

Too many people being mass deported were not here illegally but they had not yet become citizens.
They must prove he's a citizen.
Are you not aware that immigrants, temporary workers and tourists can be here without being citizens? Give this some thought, maybe.

I dont see many stories to back up your claims. Trump is deporting many people. Its not going to be perfect. And yes, im aware of that.

Obama faced the same criticism Trump is facing. He was accused of deporting people without due process or love

When are you going to criticize the world for having immigration laws?
Why would I?

I am not, contrary to your assumption, criticizing America for having immigration laws but for ignoring them selectively.
I have empathy for gay Christians who struggle with the flesh.
That wasn't my question which was, "In what way do you show your empathy for homosexual immigrants who vote Democratic?" You claim to have empathy, but how do you show it?
I have no love for politics though. I think its an ungodly thing.
Then why in the world are you posting in the specifically political section of the forum, letting the world know how much you despise those of a particular political party? Seems a bit.....

Im referring to the human race
So "all men" includes women....okay.

I dont see many stories to back up your claims.
If I posted links to many stories backing my claims, would you actually read them? I and others have posted tons of them in other threads but if you got them in this one, would you read them? They are easy enough to find, but I don't want to go to the trouble yet again if you are not going to bother.

Trump is deporting many people. Its not going to be perfect.
No one expects perfection but this is deliberate flouting of our laws and regulations.

And yes, im aware of that.
Then why state, "They must prove he's a citizen" as though only citizens are here legally?

First, so what if he did? Second, was the criticism of him the same or was it different?
He was accused of deporting people without due process or love
I don't recall that he flagrantly violated due process of deportees. Do you have any examples? Who specifically accused him of deporting without love?

Ok, they. They must prove he entered and stayed here legally. Should I show empathy to lawbreakers? If so then why not show it to trump who is accused of breaking the law?

Im trying to shed light on the evil of politics. Thats why im here. I would like to see Christians love each other instead of splitting up into rival political factions

Legal is questionable. Such as an illegal who claimed to have refugee status, but a standard check for outstanding warrants after a traffic violation that turned up one for removal that was several years old.
Just out and out revoking a legal status is not a matter of traffic violations. What I am talking about is factual legal status provided by the US and then based on a presidents racial preferences, revoking that status.

Ok, they.
Eh?
They must prove he entered and stayed here legally.
That doesn't seem to matter since even with a judge's order, he gets deported (then reimported).
Should I show empathy to lawbreakers?
That's up to you. What you should do depends on what you wish to accomplish.

My actual question to you did not concern lawbreaking but gay immigrants who vote for Democrats - which question you still have neglected to answer forthrightly.
If so then why not show it to trump who is accused of breaking the law?
Are you confused?

How should I feel empathy for doing evil and trying to justify it? If someone came here to save their life i understand but most are not here for that reason. They are here for the money

If this is your goal, then going on a diatribe on how much you dislike certain political persuasions may not be the best way.......Unless you're trying to say "Hey, don't be like me" because your words belie your stated intentions.
How should I feel empathy for doing evil and trying to justify it?
You claimed you had empathy. Whether you should or not is your determination.
If someone came here to save their life i understand but most are not here for that reason. They are here for the money
Wait, by someone coming here, you don't mean people posting in the politics forum but immigrants, right? This conversation is all over the place.

Some are here for their lives, some were brought as children, some came for a better quality of life, some are here to see and some are here for the money. The tourists are probably here for the experience.

I'd say nearly all the people here on work visas are here for the money as well as for the experience. Do you think money is evil somehow?
Do you see any love here?
:rolleyes: Yes, yes I do. If you do not, perhaps the lack is in you.
There is no true love in politics. Its hate masquerading as love
That is sad if that is true for you; I don't see you masquerading here. Many of us do have true love in politics. What we see is very often our own reflection. :eek:

The rabbi is not a "liberal", he's a Jewish teacher of Torah/Law. Jews wrote the Bible, so I'd guess they'ld have some expertise in understanding it's meaning?
Not necessarily.

You keep preaching divisions over mans politics if you wish. But others shouldn't act as if breaking the immigration law is an act of Gods love.
