So... the fact that the people of PR got basically NOTHING to rebuild their island, which is a territory of the USA, basically a state.. Thats ok???
You're a sick fuck. Thats all that says about you... You're fucking sick in the head. You think that you should be held for YEARS as a CHILD for committing a crime which is not even a felony???? You're a fucking sicko.. You do know how illegal is it??? Is less than a simple assault in terms of severity. A misdemeanor. The fine is $50 to $250.
You think that they should be held, forever, and sexually abused??? Then have their parents thrown out and kept for the guards??? Dude.. you're a sick fuck. 20 bucks says you're a christian.
Here are crimes that have MORE of a penalty then entering the USA illegally.
These acts could land you up to six months in federal prison.
Trespassing on national forest lands
Maybe you like to go mountain biking on the Pacific Crest Trail? Or perhaps you enjoy snowmobiling in Yellowstone? Or do you just want to take a shortcut through one of the forests in northern Arizona that recently closed during fire season? The United States Code levies the same punishment for trespassing as it does for illegally crossing the border. That means whether you’re crossing the border illegally or going for a hike during the wrong season, under a “zero tolerance” policy, you’d be liable to pay an unspecified fine and/or serve up to six months in a federal prison.
Taking advantage of Smokey the Bear’s likeness
Perhaps you have dreams of making quirky, vintage-style Smokey the Bear T-shirts? It turns out that using Smokey the Bear’s likeness without permission from the federal government could land you in federal prison for up to six months and/or paying an unspecified fine. Also note that similar laws are on the book for unauthorized use of the Swiss flag, the 4-H club emblem, and the Red Cross insignia.
These could result in up to one year in prison.
Purchasing fireworks
Maybe you live in Delaware, New Jersey, Massachusetts, Vermont, Iowa, or Illinois, and you’re itching to get your hands on some fireworks. Or maybe you live in a state where rinky-dink fireworks are legal, but you covet the bigger and better ones sold one state over. With the Fourth of July holiday looming, keep in mind that you can get more jail time for transporting fireworks than entering the U.S. illegally: one year in prison — or paying an unspecified fine, or both.
Possession of marijuana
Maybe you live in a state where marijuana has been legalized for medical and/or recreational use. But possession of even small amounts of marijuana is still a federal misdemeanor and Jeff Sessions isn’t known for being pro-marijuana. In fact, he’s already paved the way for a crackdown by telling federal prosecutors they can use their discretion and go for the maximum penalty for a first-time offense: up to a year in jail and/or a minimum $1,000 fine. In fact, an Oregon teenager faced prosecution for possession of just one gram of marijuana in 2016. Though the federal charges were eventually dropped, one can imagine how things might have been different had the kind of “zero tolerance” policy that now characterizes immigration law characterized possession laws then.
Mailing dentures (yes, you read that right)
If you’re not a licensed dentist, it is illegal to mail dentures. And if you happen to be into DIY dentures, “taking of impressions or casts of the human mouth or teeth” or constructing your own dentures can also land you in federal prison for up to a year or paying a fine, or both.
Cutting down your own tree for Christmas
You can chop down your own Christmas tree from certain national lands, but if you forget to pick up a permit first, you’re committing a federal misdemeanor that can land you up to a year in prison and/or have you pay a fine. And you definitely can’t chop down your own Christmas tree in Southern California: the Angeles National Forest is off-limits and any DIY tree can have you paying a hefty fine and/or land you in prison for six months.
This could land you up to five years in federal prison.
Mailing your NCAA bracket
You cannot mail “any record, paraphernalia, ticket, certificate, bills, slip, token, paper, writing, or other device used” for “bookmaking; or wagering pools with respect to a sporting event.” In short, don’t mail your NCAA college basketball bracket. Or any record of your office’s Super Bowl pool. The United States Code finds this a more grievous offense than illegal entry and it is punishable by up to five years in prison and/or include a fine.
