They were sent back if they didnt have money, relatives, some kind of job prospect, or if they had tb or some other bad diseases.

We may be a nation of immigrants but we can no longer afford the luxury of allowing just anyone in. First, they must want to be Americans, not just Muslims who come here in an attempt to colonize and conquer America. Second they must agree to assimilate. Third, they must no on balance be here to consume more of our wealth than they contribute.

Look, if I wanted to live in Syria or Mexico I would have moved there long ago.

And of all people to whine about open borders. This person has 24x7 security, even when he goes jogging. I have seen the pictures.

Apples and oranges. The U.S. takes in more legal immigrants than the rest of the world combined. What has Zuckerberg’s panties in a twist are refugees, not immigrants.

Stop lying! We are not a nation of immigrants! It’s is an insult to generations of natural born and naturalize US citizen Americans. It is a lie, unless of course, you mean the actual act of being born makes us an immigrant. Then everyone in the world, included the aborted are immigrants from their mother’s womb.

We are NOT a nation of immigrants.

We are a nation of English and Dutch settlers.

The "nation of immigrants" meme is a lie and a myth.

Let me help you out, Mark.

We are a nation of LEGAL immigrants.

Imho, people should not make their millions until they are 30. Why? Because in a large number of cases it rots their brain because the maturity level approaches zero.

Mark Zuckerberg is not stupid.
He KNOWS Trump means ILLEGAL immigration, so he chooses to be deceptive.

We’re not staying silent any longer when we hear or read this violence to the English language, this shameless conflation.
It has gone on long enough.
We had the same challenge confronting “comprehensive immigration reform” ... amnesty.
If aliens are here legally, they may be immigrants.
If they are here illegally they are illegal aliens.

Get stuffed Marky Mark.

I disagree with the whole notion of the United States being a nation of immigrants. We are a nation of CITIZENS, natural born and naturalized. Permanent residents are here as guests as are visa holders and tourists but the nation is not made of these until the normalize their status. Until “immigrants” become citizens they can still be sent back to their home countries as they don’t have the right to be in the US. Only citizens have the right to be in the US, everyone else is here only as a courtesy and on sufferance.

Precisely put.
It is mind boggling to me that some on the left even think that alien felons residing here illegally have somehow ripened a `right’ to remain.
I have advocated for ten years for a complete moratorium on immigration until we sort out this mess left to us by 25 years of federal neglect—and eight years of affirmative lawbreaking by Obama.
DACA was a direct violation of federal immigration statutes.

In between suing his new neighbors in Hawaii and building a wall around the $100 million 700 acre purchase, Zuckerberg takes time out to lecture us on how to treat immigrants. Elitist, got to love how they keep on trying to control the narrative while doing whatever they want to whoever they want.

People “pen” posts on Facebook?

Just as they “film” with their cell phones.

And people make statements with TV cameras “rolling.”
