You're viewing part of a thread.
That's a pretty sweet straw man you just built there.
Academic language does not shelter you from the consequences of your speech.
You seem to have misunderstood what I was arguing against. I've said nothing about inequality or difficulty of life anywhere. Merely that crossing borders illegally is illegal and wrong.
Fun fact: It's actually not illegal under international law if you are seeking refuge. Most countries are signatories to the Convention on Refugees.
The US is not, but it's really a minority on this issue.
Seeking refuge is needlessly vague. We have definitions and rules for a reason.
The Refugee Convention, which I was referring to, does have definitions and rules.
You can read them on the pdfs linked from this page if you like.
International law is still legislation, case law, and precedents; it's not a few "vague" terms.
