> 2. Tolerance for those who are illegally present
I don't think this is true in any other country than USA, and it is only true in USA due to States not being allowed to enact their own immigration laws. California is very tolerant of illegal immigrants since according to them they are not really illegal.
In most countries it works like this: People arrive to a country, as soon as it is noticed that they are illegal they get contacted by authorities and they get to seek asylum etc. If they don't then they are not tolerated. If they do then during the asylum process they are not illegal any longer, and hence tolerated. As soon as a decision is made to deport them they are illegal if they stay and will not be tolerated no matter what they do.
- masonic 7y agoI don't think this is true in any other country than USA Are you unaware that a majority of refugee applicants in Sweden (for one example) are ultimately deported?
- username90 7y agoI am from Sweden, so yes I am aware how it works. Sweden doesn't tolerate undocumented immigrants. What happens is that people arrive, they get documented, then after a while they get either get deported or get allowed to stay. Having undocumented immigrants never makes sense ever in my opinion.
