It is fine to want to stop illegal immigration. If is not fine to lie about the reasons.
We have enough lawbreakers without importing more. Kick them all out.

I don't think that is a proven fact if you base it on adults only and even if it is. We have all we can handle just dealing with legals who commit crimes. We can not remove them from our country, but why should we have to deal with illegals as well, who have no right to be here? Remember studies are statistics, depending on where they come from are often very biased. They are usually done to push an agenda. Don't believe all you read even if it says what you want to hear.

Reason to oppose hordes of illegal immigrants?????


Wonder why they try to illegally cross the border, when if they apply for asylum at the fornt door , they get a hearing and families are not separated?????


Wonder why they don't seek asylum in Mx which is closer to their cultural norms.

Was he here on a green card, visa, etc.?

Or is he an illegal alien?

Did he walk across the border from Norway?
That was my question. Nowhere does the article say he is undocumented, just not a U.S. Citizen. Neither am I, but I am in the country legally.

He likely arrived via airplane. From Denmark is a guess.

Exactly. As a progressive, I'm also opposed to illegal immigration, but that is NOT because they are immigrants, but because I do not support completely open borders or "second class citizens" being exploited by corporations as a form of under the table indentured servitude. Immigrants in general are fine, however.

Of course, that is not what this is about with the far-right. They pretend to be angry only at "illegal immigrants," but a quick check regarding their actual beliefs makes it clear that they hate immigrants and minorities of almost any sort. It's all about MAWA with them.

We have plenty of native anarchists, and many of them support Trump and any far-right, destroy the nation viewpoint. Can we kick them out, too?

What really irritates the Trumpers no end is the fact that there are millions of children, grandchildren and great-grandchildren of illegal aliens in this country who are native born American citizens who no Supreme Court, no matter how right wing, will ever strip of their citizenship.

The law of supply and demand is impossible to appeal.
