Did you think the 1939 Nazi rally in NYC was all a bunch of foreigners? Those were ordinary American citizens as well.
I would hope people are dividing themselves away from this hateful movement. I’m not trying to welcome this garbage into my country even though it’s already here.
So their opinion does not count? Only conservative opinions are worth listening to in their area of expertise?Typical liberals
It’s supposed to be divisive. I have no interest in uniting with these people and neither do any of them.Trump supporters at a Trump rally are a "hateful movement"? You are engaging in the divisive rhetoric you claim to have an issue with.
No, I'm suggesting that they are biased. You could make the same case about many politicians if you set out to do so.So their opinion does not count? Only conservative opinions are worth listening to in their area of expertise?
People educated in a field drawing conclusions from their vast experience in that subject? Sounds about right.Typical liberals
I don't know, and I'm not sure what the relevance of those things would be. This is specifically about immigration and for me this line of discussion is about how people manipulate the term "legally" to make some group of current immigrants look differently (morally, it would seem) relative to earlier groups. Did my ancestors come here legally in 1846, 1848, 1852, 1855, and 1871? I don't know. Probably. There doesn't seem to have been any significant immigration laws *to* violate. I'm not really interested in this example, nor have I spent any time looking it over.
Sociology is a "soft science", which means people can "shop for experts" who agree with them pretty easily.People educated in a field drawing conclusions from their vast experience in that subject? Sounds about right.
Every human being is biased. Unless you are claiming that their bias somehow interferes with their expertise I fail to see how that is relevant?No, I'm suggesting that they are biased. You could make the same case about many politicians if you set out to do so.

Much like economics...it's not hard for people to find a PhD that agrees with the thing they already wanted to believe.
In the case of what was being discussed above, you can find people with PhD's in history on either side of the 'Is Trump like Hitler' debate.
That's not the point of my example, so no, they aren't relevant.Parallels for how we treat other laws (that have gone from lax to strict) are relevant.
I don't know what example you speak of, but I haven't been finishing the reading of your posts when you start your divergence from the point.As that can cause people to think about how we handle laws and enforcement as a general rule, rather than looking through it myopically for a single hot-button issue for political convenience.
Despite you not being interested in the driver's license example, there are similarities.
People would certainly assign a level of "virtue" to the idea of playing by the rules and insisting "people should have to take a drivers exam and get licensed if they want to participate in the privilege of driving on public roads"
A defense of "Get off your moral high horse and quit acting like you're so great, your ancestors drove around in the Midwest all the time without a license back in the 1930's during a time when there weren't any driver's licenses laws to violate, so see, you're not any better than the person who's driving without a license" would be borderline laughable.
And we certainly wouldn't being viewing someone breaking the modern laws in a "softer" light based on historical enforcement levels.
If anything, quite the opposite.
Is there an answer to the riddle of how to tell an ordinary citizen from a Nazi? Planned Partenthood is basicly Nazi because it is based on ethnic purity. They want to eliminate all the non white babies out there.Comparing a rally filled with ordinary American citizens of all races to a Nazi rally IS divisive rhetoric.
Trump drinks water during his speeches. Who else did that?Every human being is biased. Unless you are claiming that their bias somehow interferes with their expertise I fail to see how that is relevant?
<Roll eyes> You have fun with that.Trump drinks water during his speeches. Who else did that?
Hitler
Is that an air of disdain here? Like being a history profession is inherently dismissable because apparently they are all liberals (which is simply demonstrably not true).Typical liberals
Or, people who weren't going to vote now are going to vote against him.Yeah, people who weren’t going to vote for him anyway
Welcome at the rallWho where there for completely different reasons. Jews, black people and gay people were all welcome at the Trump rally. These groups were not welcome by the Nazis.
He uses two hands though so that's different.Trump drinks water during his speeches. Who else did that?
Hitler
