Heat wave due to liberal hoax fake news climate change

True. But I think you're dealing in semantics. Have you ever gotten a parking ticket? Have you ever jaywalked? Did you ever underpay your taxes? Did you ever rip that tag off your pillow, the one that says cannot be removed under penalty of law? Did you ever get caught speeding?

Those are all criminal acts. I doubt, however, that you would consider anyone who commits them, yourself included, a criminal.

I realize that demonizing people who are trying to find a better life in the US is standard conservative bill of fare. One thing for sure, it never changes--fear and hatred of the "other."

Jerry, welcome to the Sink! You are a terrific partner for Tommie-poo: you're both servile Trump-lickers, your brains (to use the term very loosely) are echo chambers for conspiracy theories, and you both talk as though you've been repeatedly whacked over the head (which you may very well have).

Tommie-poo, you've found a kindred spirit. May the love between you and Jerry blossom and grow.

If this is true you could easily find an example to prove your point.  Only a Lyin' Lib would make up such a false story.

Kevin, as you know, my best friend in town is a black immigrant from Tanzania Africa.  How could this be since you claim that I hate blacks and immigrants?

You should check your facts before calling people stupid and uninformed.  To cross into Mexico Legally you need a Passport or a passport card.  And you Damn sure need one if you want to come back into the US. And if you stay more than 72 hours you need to register for a tourist card or a Visa. And if you drive across and plan on heading outside the Border zone... you car needs importation papers $.   

Ah, but it is just an infraction. It isn't even a misdemeanor. In terms of criminality it is on the same level as a parking ticket. You ever illegally park or drive 1 mph over the speed limit? Do you consider yourself a criminal for having done so?

NOPE. You need a passport or passport card to RETURN. I've crossed and returned over two dozen times. In no instance was any Mexican official even present at the entry point (which was usually a gate or turnstile of some sort), and I never had to present any identification or documentation.

As I said, things might be different now due to Covid restrictions, but in general, even if Mexican law mandates that you have a passport, they don't enforce it. Just go to any checkpoint where there's a lot of foot traffic, such as at San Ysidro, and you'll see all them filthy Americans flooding across the border, unchecked, while there's a long line in the other direction.

Go to any busy border crossing, like at San Ysidro (San Diego-Tijuana) or Brownsville, Texas, and you'll see hordes of Americans flooding across the border, completely unchecked by the authorities. Those American criminals and rapists pour into Mexico and run around taking Mexican jobs and defiling Mexican women. The Mexican officials do nothing about this onslaught of illegals. Obviously, they should meet the hordes with deadly force, by shooting across the border.

Sometimes these people brazenly buy a sombrero or have dinner in a cantina, cross back over the border, and do it all over again next week. If only Mexico were led by someone as wise and brave as Donald Trump! There would be no more filthy American illegals, that's for sure.

(I'm obviously talking pre-, and I hope post-, pandemic.)

Well Kevin, you can rip those tags off to your heart's content.  The levy is against the manufacture should they use recycled dirty nasty stuffing as was apparently happening some years back.  Tags now include something like "except by the consumer", since everybody was wondering "why can't I cut my tags off?"   (Though IMO you'd want to take the pillow AND tag back to the store if you thought it contained some of those prohibited stuffings, but that's another story.)

You aren't committing a "under penalty of law" once you've paid for your pillow or mattress.

Well, thank God. I was sure that when the Republicans, The Party of Law and Order, return to absolute power (which they will never relinquish this time), I would be tracked down and imprisoned for my violation of the pillow law, which I have committed many times over the years.

Now, for having blasphemed, such as having denied Donald Trump's divinity, that, I'll still have to worry about. The RepubliQ don't take kindly to heretics.

I do wonder, though, if the leniency you informed us about will still be the case once Mike Lindell gets appointed Minister of Pillows in Trump 2024's cabinet.
