Stuck in limbo, DACA recipients are consumed with fear and anxiety
The Mercury News ^ | 3/9/2018 | Tatiana Sanchez

The anxiety keeps coming in waves.

And right now, for Fernando Hernandez and the hundreds of thousands of young DACA recipients whose fate lies in the hands of a polarized Congress and a mercurial president, the despair is crashing in.

“It’s been weighing down on me,” said Hernandez, 28, of Santa Clara, whose mother crossed the border illegally with him when he was 5 and who now works as a lab technician at an LED company. “It feels like I don’t have an identity anymore, like I’m somebody’s plaything, somebody’s bargaining chip.”

So proud of their mexican heritage, yet consider living in their homeland a punishment worse than death.

Maybe they should return to the country they are a citizen of and ease their anxiety.
Take your human trafficking parents with you.

...Stuck in limbo, DACA recipients are consumed with fear and anxiety...

They should ask their parents why they did this to them.

Blame your mother, dude..... she brought you to a foreign country illegally and your “identity” has been screwed up by her.

So...these illegals came here or were brought here illegally. And, then Zero and 0bamunists crafted an anti-Constitutional executive overreach nicknamed DACA, and offered them a chance to stay, only requiring they follow a pathway to citizenship.
This they obviously chose not to do...
Trump arrives on the scene and reminds us that even Zero told us the damn thing was not proper, and he set a date certain for it to end. Of course, an activist judge or two threw up roadblocks. But, it remains true that the program is improper and not Constitutional.

Get Out You are all criminals. THAT is the resolution. Now, you can overcome your anxiety. Your path is certain. Start packing. Your bus leaves in an hour.

Exactly!

Why isn’t their home country their ‘safe space’, if they’re living here, ILLEGALLY, in ‘fear’.

Fear and anxiety of losing their FreeSh!t™ is all.

I hope so. We’ll see of there is a spike in anxiety medicine or drug use by the DACA dolts.

These people have social security cards. Of course I remember in Santa Ana in the early 1990’s illegals could buy an illegal card for $500.00. I wonder if same outfit that gave Soetero his fake card.

At the very least, or for a beginning, ICE should immediately deport the illegal aliens who started this mess, the F’n illegal, border jumping parents, and permanently banish them from ever entering the United States again.

I really feel their pain; especially for the ones waving the Mexican flags, flipping us the bird and yelling “he’s not MY president!” Gives me a warm, fuzzy feeling allover./S

“Recently, it hasn’t been so much about the fear,” she said. “It’s heartbreaking to see that the government you grew up with — the country you grew up with, these politicians — use you as a pawn, as a way to get what they need to get.”


Anyone relate to that?

Put an a-hole DACA colonist in every liberal’s home and see how they like it WITHOUT government welfare. Let them feel the f-ing “BURN”! My tolerance is stretched way too thin.
