Honestly, I’m more concerned with homegrown terrorism than terrorist from other countries. I’m for stricter immigration laws not because I hate foreigners or think they are coming in to kill us and steal our jobs, but because I think we should be taking care of the people who are legal citizens first (which our country is not doing).

The migrants have been viewed as a horde, an invasion force but as far as we know they are not coming to murder us in the name of their twisted ideology, they are coming for opportunity, jobs, safety, welfare etc..



Both illegal aliens and terrorism pose a threat to our country but one could be described as a death by a thousand cuts while the other is generally a quick explosive death.



Which are you more concerned with or is there another worry on your mind such as an active shooter?
I’m not overly concerned about either. I’m not hysterical like cons are.

Illegal Immigration makes it easier for Terrorists to get into the country.

Nah, they don't know either. They learn the ropes from relatives already here.

Illegal immigrants/immigration/legal immigration.


"Legal" immigration should have ended when I was born, back in the early 80s. Politicians think they have some right to disobey Americans/American sovereignty and sign on to the Global government of United Nations and take demands from them or do what they have ordered us to do.

Most Americans are against even "legal" immigration anymore now, so that by default makes it illegal.


It is destroying the culture that made America what it is: European Christian culture.

I chose other because the terrorists will enter the country illegally probably through Mexico.
