I came to this country in 1996 with a visa. It expired in 2002, I was only 6 in 1996. My parents brought me into this country. I am currently 22, 23 in just a few days. I did 2 years of JROTC in HS. After I graduated I wanted to continue ROTC in college but was told no because of status in this country. I said ok maybe I can join the Army since they accept immigrants. They do, but only legal immigrants. My parents never renewed the visas. Since a little kid I wanted to serve in the armed forces after seeing pictures of my uncle in the NAVY. My dreams were shattered so I said fukk it, I had to resort to a college degree.
You don't know my hatred towards some of these privileged fukks that are citizens of this country and all they have to show for is a stupid GED or a rap sheet.
So no, not all illegal immigrants are criminals same as not all black people are those stereotypes people parade around.
