Summary
Wisconsin resident Bradley Bartell voted for Trump’s promise to crack down on “criminal illegal immigrants,” but now his Peruvian wife Camila Muñoz has been detained by ICE.
Muñoz, from Peru, overstayed her visa but had applied for legal residency. On their way home from a honeymoon, immigration agents detained her at a Puerto Rico airport.
Despite no criminal record, she remains in a Louisiana detention center. Her case reflects ICE’s broadened enforcement that now includes documented immigrants.
Bartell, once supportive of stricter immigration policies, now questions the impact on families like his own.
Think of how stupid the average conservative is then remember half of them are stupider than that.
Scraping the barrel of humanity, and we let them vote…
What kind of democracy would it be if roughly half the citizens would not be allowed to vote because deemed too stupid? And on what criteria to judge that?
The problem has more to do with education and information (as in media), that many citizens are not being educated and informed to a level/quality allowing them to vote in their best interest.
Oh, I don’t disagree at all! I was making a joke, but seems like it fell through, lol
It’s hard to pickup sarcasm through text. Also, people have all kinds of opinions out here.
