DACA

How a government responds to that has to be a lot more sensitive than using "whatever the punishment is" because you're talking about uprooting and displacing people...possibly ruining their lives. Law has to consider the consequences of its own execution.

I've seen you before being pro-reparations from people who's family benefitted from owning slaves. So you are for them being accountable for the illegal (or legal) actions of people who are probably a good 3 generations down a family lineage, but not for someone being held accountable to the illegal immigration of their actual parents?
