"Entering the country illegally is illegal" is restating the law. Such a statement would likely take on more meaning given the context in which it was said.
"Nobody has the right to ..." is your opinion.
- AnimalMuppet 6y agoWell, "nobody has the legal right to..." is restating. And to me, the "legal" is rather obviously implied.
- marshray 6y agoI don't agree the implication is obvious at all. Interpreting it that way make it a total truism - nonsensical unless interpreted within a greater context. And it looks to me that's just what the GP poster was trying to do - challenge others to argue with a truism while pretending that the context in which it was stated isn't relevant.
- cromka 6y agoINAL but it is your right to illegally cross the border of a Geneva convention signatory country and seek an asylum. So no, not the same.
