It pisses me off that people are still saying they’re only going after people who are there illegally when that’s demonstrably false. I heard the guy in charge of ICE on CNN saying he thinks illegal immigration is wrong because it’s cutting in line in front of legal immigrants. Well then, why are they also arresting legal immigrants?
I was discussing the “immigration crisis” with some conservative friends and when I said “if you want to stop illegal migration, then we need to make legal immigration faster, cheaper, and easier.”
That simple suggestion infuriated them. It’s not about legality, it’s about xenophobia / racism.
“If you’re a legal immigrant you’re safe.”
This is what really infuriates me is that they fuck over anyone who is working to do the right thing within the system that has failed them.
