DACA and advance parole (USA )

Poll - Total Votes: 15
she should have taken her kid with her before crossing back
no one should ever be put in the position she was put in .
illegals are illegals / she does not belong here until she legally does
I am not American and your country is so messed up to even have this situation
DACA should be given residency in most cases this is non-needed red tape
she is very brave and made a very difficult decision
this video made me cry (or tear up )
Other please elaborate

In the USA DACA (called dreamers) are illegal immigrants that came over to the USA with their family when they were young . Often before the age of 10.

Our government has gone back and forth on giving them legal residency in the USA or kicking the out as illegals.

The video below gives a personal story of a mom who left her legal son in the USA to go backto mexico to get the passport stamp giving her a better status with US immigration but does not guarantee of future deportation.

I kept this as neutral as possible not addressing party lines or ideologies. You are welcome to assert your party lines and ideologies in the comments.

May I ask what country you are from and your thoughts on this? the news source for the record is really neutral --just one mothers personal story of DACA and advance parole.

Illegal if they don't have to obey the law why should we wash it any of us which is still away with the law and do what we want to do that would be a very interesting Society wouldn't it

@KingofBones1 when you say obey the law,, i am guessing most of them did not realize at that age they were doing an illegal border crossing.

but i think what you are saying (and don't le me get your thoughts wrong) is that when they discovered, at whatever age they were undocumented they should have self-deported at that time and tried to go through the legal process of re-entereing the USA? Am i getting your thoughts correct?

or is more that the USA is not a home for DACA they should go back to where their family came from and stay there?

sidebar your analogy doesn't make any sense but that is ok-analogies may not be your thing:

to elaborate--we have all kinds of laws and we all breatk some of from time time--for example driving the speed limit or having too many drinks at a restaurant (public intoxication)

some laws are mild when there is an infraction small potatoes and some like bodily harm are extreme in terms of infraction. when you say "obey (all) laws given the diverity and sheer number of laws we have the analogy loses value until such time you compare it to specfic laws you think are on par with immigration law and immigration status.

@robertsnj there is fairness of Law and abuse of the system and it has gotten far past the point of being the latter

good to know that I can cross into mexico and rob a bank and get away with it because I wasn't "aware" that it was illegal... 🤔
