Discussion: Chris Christie: Let's Track Immigrants Like FedEx Packages

Discussion for article #239908

Christie went on to say that expired visa immigrants would be sent back boxed up in foam peanuts. Overnight.

Not even Christie is wrong all of the time. Losing track of people overstaying visas is a serious flaw in the system. Yet I fear the solution he wants is akin to tattooing UPC scanner codes on people’s foreheads and constant laser-scan-reading in the public sphere.

Christie: What? Herman Cain already used the 9-9-9 tax plan? Damn. Wait! The chip in my shoulder is sending me a message. Let’s track immigrants like …"

How you gonna track people, Christie? Are you proposing to put chips in them, like a pet dog or cat?

That’s where this conversation is going, but it’s not going to address the illegal border crossings that Trump is scare-mongering.

Well, I understand the points Christie is making here and I’m glad to see a Republican presidential candidate state that a large chunk of today’s undocumented folks actually came here legally. That said, what does he expect us to be able to lawfully do to track people well enough so we know exactly where they are at the time of visa expiration? – put tracking devices on them? – track their movement from municipality or state to state, etc., like, you know, checking people’s papers (everyone’s)? Fed Ex is good with tracking inanimate, papered objects. Humans aren’t inanimate.

Maybe Christie will flip Cain on his head and call this his 6-6-6 plan. The mark of the beast! Its either that or we chip people like a dog. Then I guess we set up scanners, or forehead bar code readers. You’ll be walking down a crowded street and look up and see a drone with 2 lasers. One will scan for illegal immigrants and the other will take them out

Well I have to take my hat off to him. He actually managed to grab part of the News cycle for himself from Trump. Way to go dude.

You’ve got to figure that at this point the Republicans have thought, “Fuck it, we’re never going to get the Hispanic vote in this lifetime, let’s just go all out and insult them and make the rubes who watch Fox happy.”

This reminds me of Rand Paul’s underground electronic fences along the border with Mexico. He could never explain how he intended to get the “illegals” to wear the little receivers on their collars, so they’d get a jolt if they tried to come across the border.

This makes sense in Baggerland.

And then supress the Latino vote by requiring photo IDs to vote (and making it very onerous to get said photo ID), cutting voting machines from voting stations in Latino neighborhoods (forcing them to wait longer to vote than they can afford to), etc.

Yeah boy!
Jam a chip under their skin at the border. Yeah, that’s the ticket!! One ting tho Chris. Who’s gonna make the chips? And how ya gonna pay for them and the training for ICE agents to jam those chips into their arms? An an why not chip citizens too?

Chips Beatty…chips under the skin. My dog and my 3 cats are so chipped so if they become lost we can find 'em. So…chip everyone, starting with Presidential contenders.

My late golden retriever had an implanted chip, but she had it so good here I knew she wouldn’t roam. But chips in immigrants brings a good idea to a whole new level
