Ya, its history reads like a fairytale. na fleabiscuit Dec 2018 #17

Oh for fuck's sake, knock it off. Jedi Guy Dec 2018 #34
Thou doth protest too much, methinks. SunSeeker Dec 2018 #66
Annnnnnnnnnnnnnd there you go again, twisting and smearing away. Jedi Guy Dec 2018 #67
Uh huh. You mad. SunSeeker Dec 2018 #70
Not particularly, no. Why would I be? Jedi Guy Dec 2018 #71

When the facts are in, if it is determined CBP was indeed negligent, I'll be happy to condemn them. Jedi Guy Dec 2018 #33
We have facts we can comment on now. You are just ignoring them. SunSeeker Dec 2018 #37
My entire point is that commenting and forming conclusions is premature. Jedi Guy Dec 2018 #40
Yet you conclude in the OP that CBP "did the best they could." SunSeeker Dec 2018 #49
Your emphasis there missed two key words: sounds like. Jedi Guy Dec 2018 #52
That is just silly. We have a right to comment on CBP just like you did. SunSeeker Dec 2018 #58
If you say so, SunSeeker. Jedi Guy Dec 2018 #60
I see you're resorting to sophistry. SunSeeker Dec 2018 #68
I see that you don't know what either of those words means. Jedi Guy Dec 2018 #76
LOL Project away. nt SunSeeker Dec 2018 #78
Jedi Guy: Your post is filled with rightwing talking points sharedvalues Dec 2018 #28
Is it really? Which ones are those, exactly? Jedi Guy Dec 2018 #35
You describe yourself as the self-appointed opinion police of progressive opinion on this site. SunSeeker Dec 2018 #38
LOL, you're a stitch, SunSeeker. Jedi Guy Dec 2018 #41
I see you think you are the only one who can decide when the "full facts" have emerged. SunSeeker Dec 2018 #44
If you're going to quote me, at least get it right. Jedi Guy Dec 2018 #46
You are projecting and being hypocritical. SunSeeker Dec 2018 #53
And there you go again, misrepresenting and twisting. Jedi Guy Dec 2018 #55
I see you are the typo police too. nt SunSeeker Dec 2018 #59
Yeah, I get paid double for catching typos. Jedi Guy Dec 2018 #61
I respect DU readers sharedvalues Dec 2018 #73
Nah, it doesn't work that way. Jedi Guy Dec 2018 #75
Much easier to push a narrative while cowering behind implication. LanternWaste Dec 2018 #84

Hmmm. An incarcerated father, in a position of total weakness, says his incarcerators... Honeycombe8 Dec 2018 #16
He was speaking to personnel from his country's consulate. He has no reason to lie to them. Jedi Guy Dec 2018 #23
To be fair, it's what was reported that got people upset. Honeycombe8 Dec 2018 #24
I didn't say everyone wants someone innocent to hang. Jedi Guy Dec 2018 #25
He was imprisoned. And your headline jumps to conclusions. sharedvalues Dec 2018 #30
So because he was imprisoned, it follows logically that he lied to an official from his consulate? Jedi Guy Dec 2018 #36
He is not free to leave. He is trying to get asylum. SunSeeker Dec 2018 #39
It's starting to become clear now, I think. Jedi Guy Dec 2018 #42
Most likely, the same one alleging... LanternWaste Dec 2018 #43
Was wondering when you'd show up, old friend. Jedi Guy Dec 2018 #47
Your attack on DUers is gratuitous. SunSeeker Dec 2018 #45
I'm sorry you think that an observation about people playing the Blame Game is "gratuitous." Jedi Guy Dec 2018 #48
I accept that your opinion is different. You are the one who can't accept others' opinions. SunSeeker Dec 2018 #51
I can absolutely accept that others' opinions differ, and I can absolutely comment on them. Jedi Guy Dec 2018 #54
You are the one getting "worked up" by people pointing out how wrong and hypocritical you are. SunSeeker Dec 2018 #62
If you say so, SunSeeker. Jedi Guy Dec 2018 #63
Yes, you are. SunSeeker Dec 2018 #69
Yes. He was imprisoned, so this is coercive. sharedvalues Dec 2018 #72

Is he still in custody? Squinch Dec 2018 #56
Per the article, he's at a migrant shelter in El Paso called Annunciation House. Jedi Guy Dec 2018 #57
But he's still a guy in a very vulnerable position whose arm could easily be twisted. Squinch Dec 2018 #64
I'd agree with you but for one fact. Jedi Guy Dec 2018 #65
Absolutely. Coercive situation. He's jailed sharedvalues Dec 2018 #74
