![]() Illegal immigration is not much different. Not only for creating a legislative environment for housing to be ridiculously difficult to afford, but also for punishing people for not being able to afford it. They have nobody to blame for that but themselves. And in the same breath, they like to pretend it's the GOPs fault when the GOP has all of zero political influence in the areas of California with the highest homeless population. California for example has some of the worst laws for criminalizing homelessness of any state, and yet Democrats control California at ALL levels of its government. Let's look at a tangentially related topic: Democrats always talk about how we need to do more about helping the homeless, and yet they pass some of the toughest anti-homelessness laws that exist. But if you don't follow the process of the day you are illegal and subject to deportation.Įvery nation on earth has the right to control its border and know who is entering their territory and why, and to deny entry based on their government's policies.Īh, you have politics to promote, I understand your post now. Yes we should improve the process but that is something else entirely. There is a process, there is a line, there are ports of entry where it can all be done legally.

"Up until now, immigrant detainees have been exempt from the law, they said, because of an agreement between Eric H. Homeland security officials said the new initiative was permitted under the DNA Fingerprint Act of 2005. They warned that United States citizens, who are sometimes accidentally booked into immigration custody, could also be forced to hand over their private genetic information. The new rules would allow the government to collect DNA from children, as well as those who seek asylum at legal ports of entry and have not broken the law. Immigrant and privacy advocates said the move raised privacy concerns for an already vulnerable population that could face profiling or discrimination as a result of their personal data being shared among law enforcement authorities. ![]() The move would constitute a major expansion of the use of a database maintained by the F.B.I., which has been limited mainly to genetic data collected from people who have been arrested, charged or convicted in connection with serious crimes. Senior officials at the Department of Homeland Security said Wednesday that the Justice Department was developing a federal regulation that would give immigration officers the authority to collect DNA in detention facilities that are holding more than 40,000 people. An anonymous reader quotes a report from The New York Times: The Trump administration is moving to begin collecting DNA samples from hundreds of thousands of people booked into federal immigration custody each year for entry into a national criminal database, an immense expansion of the use of technology to enforce the nation's immigration laws.
