everyone calm down,
1) we all know there is not gonna be any mass deportations of undocumented immigrants
It should. It sucks, but a line has to be drawn. A significant fraction shouldn't feel comfortable just evading the law.
2) most undocumented immigrants are reasonable and want a chance to succeed in this country, which sometimes requires college and university.
Congrats. You're a human. You know who also wants success? Every one else.
3) "I immigrated here legally, why can't they?" this old argument fails to mention one thing. it's expensive to immigrate here and it could take more than a decade to get permission.
I already advocate reform for LEGAL immigration including revamping how the lotto is carried out and different classifications for types if immigration.
4) "its an invasion!" . . well if the U.S. didn't have a history of opening the gates from time to time when it needs cheap labor from across the border, it would'nt have this problem. not to mention the large number of
businesses and corporations that turn a blind eye to UI.
At no point did I ever condone businesses abusing illegal labor.
But we can't address the demand issue without curbing the supply.
And the "supply" keeps trying to use emotional tricks to evade accountability for their actions.
Does citizenship mean anything anymore?
4) "they took our joobz" . . if you were replaced by an UI, rethink your future! when they passed those anti U.I. laws in georgia back in 2011, a lot of farmers complained that they were losing millions in produce because they
were having a hard time keeping legal white and black workers, fast forward to today, U.I. are back to work, because Georgia realized no one except U.I. farm workers are willing to work harvesting produce.
I have friends and family members who worked those "shytty" jobs to put their families in better positions and to give them valuable entry level work experience.
And this isn't just farm hands and burger flippers.
We're talking about nurses:
Illegal immigrant nurses can now be licensed in California | allnurses
We're talking about fukkign INVESTMENT bankers
Bruh if a latino woman got this job, they easily could have interviewed a black candidate for this. Thats a fukking FACT.
5) thankfully most black people are cool with Mexicans (at least where im from) they're smart enough not to fall for that Trump BS.
This ain't about Trump. This is about justice and equality.
