I think it sends a message. Stop breaking our laws and don't come here. I like that.

The cruelty is the point.

If this is good for immigrants who break the law, surely it's good for citizens who break the law.

This is an act that portends far worse in the future

I have warned for years the effect of dehumanizing "criminals". It leads to treating immigrants like dogs and will soon be used to justify even more heinous acts

This is what hate looks like.

The world is watching this nation and seeing human beings behaving like monsters.

Haitians misheard the news as, "Migrants at Ice jail in Miami made to eat dogs", and have been lining up around the block.

Pres Trump seems to be more concerned bout the optics than the outcome.

And the optics he seems to want to purvey is cruelty.

Torturing chickens is illegal.

But torturing people, now that's something Republicans love. Jesus would be proud.

Cruelty has always been the point.

When they kidnap an 82 year old green card holder, who has lived in the US for 50 years at an appointment to get a green card replaced and send him to a country he never had been to and tell his family he is dead, there is no other explanation.

These people are scum. Vile scum. They deserve all the bad things that come to them.

The people that cheer for this are no better than them either.

Bereft of compassion and moral character. They don't have any redeeming qualities other than someday they will assume room temperature.

Another crusade?!

Fed hotdogs on wet cement, and beatings from "guards" - anticipating cruelty is almost as effective as performing it.

ICE, as an organism has a weakness employing extremists.

Hair of the dog.

Sycophant casually leaves out where Jesus spoke of respecting the laws of a country or in his time both Jewish law and Roman law. If you don't like the laws of our country, change them. Until then (and to go a bit older school with the Babylonians) they will be treated as they have treated our citizens.

For everyone's benefit, please cite where Jesus spoke as you claim.

Sure TrueBlue this isn't hard ... Mark 12:17 " Render therefore to Caesar the things that are Caesar's, and to God the things that are God's. And they marveled at him." One must respect the rule of law, these folks decided to trample over and make a mockery of our laws.

Um, the point being made:

"The phrase "Give to Caesar what is Caesar's, and to God what is God's" means that while Christians should honor and obey the governing authorities, they also have a higher obligation to God and should prioritize their faith and moral duties. It acknowledges the legitimate role of the state while emphasizing the supremacy of God."

www.google.com

The point being made is that the higher obligation is to God, not to Government.

And more to the point, Jesus was committing a crime by saying that there were some things that did not belong to Caeser, who owned everything including the individual people.

That passage is specifically about taxation not about any other law. Start at 12:14, context clues matter (like the context where the pharisees and herodians specifically ask if they should pay)

They didn't expect this kind of treatment when they accepted their invitations to this country.

It's hard to tell whether you guys are being serious or just trolling for S&G; just like with many of the leftists on this board. It's weirdly naive to think that no one innocent would ever get caught up in this weird type of abu ghraib perversion, or that normalizing/accepting it could never come back to haunt you or someone you care about.
