Why are conservatives afraid of open borders and freedom of movement? Are all their excuses lies?

Is there something that allows them to ignore other people's rights?

people do not have the right to cross borders illegally, sorry but those who do it the right way are those you spit in the face of when you and others think people should be rewarded for breaking the law

@Torsten the right to seek asylum after entry is guaranteed under US law-. You just have vigilantes and denialism instead of rules.

@Roundandroundwego they are not seeking assylum. Besides, if they were, they should be staying in mexico.

Torsten · 36-40, M

@Roundandroundwego and there is a process to seek asylum. You can not just cross illegally

Roundandroundwego · 61-69

@MasterLee apprehension and detention of people crossing is illegal because the asylum right exists. That's US law. But you can have war if you prefer. Murka wins the mighty might contest.

@Roundandroundwego except this isn't asylum

Torsten · 36-40, M

@Roundandroundwego do you know people traffic women and children into countries or the amount of drugs smuggled in? laws are there for a reason

Roundandroundwego · 61-69

@Torsten one excuse after another! You don't need to be obcene to say"now" to human rights!

Torsten · 36-40, M

@Roundandroundwego its facts. You're just blind to them clearly. Breaking the law is not a human right

You obviously support human trafficking, and other criminal activity. You should invite them all to your home town, and even your home. @Roundandroundwego

Human rights don't go away when you lie about me in obscene ways. @Carissimi

Torsten · 36-40, M

@Roundandroundwego you never denied it though

Carissimi · F

@Roundandroundwego Then you should not disregard the human trafficking that goes on across our border, when you disregard criminal activity in your responses. It’s not a lie when you yourself seem to think it’s okay.
