The unbounded arrogance of America’s illegal aliens and their allies
American Thinker ^ | 21 Dec, 2024 | Andrea Widburg

They think immigrating to America is a right. It isn’t.

For a couple of days now, I’ve had a video sitting in my inbox about a huge pro-illegal alien protest in Los Angeles. On the one hand, it shows that illegal aliens and their supporters are worried about Trump’s administration, as they should be. But on the other hand, what’s so striking about the video is the sense of entitlement. As far as the illegal aliens and their leftist allies are concerned, coming to America is a right. It isn’t, and the Supreme Court has said so in no uncertain terms—terms that deserve to be committed to memory.

What struck me most about the video was the illegal alien woman saying, “my own rights are at risk.” Indeed, that’s the entire tone of the pro-illegal immigration protests, whether they’re demanding sanctuary cities, opposing deportation, or facilitating illegal aliens. Illegal aliens, they insist, have the right to be in America.

But the reality is that there is no right for someone to come to America. In 1950, in a case that was much more sympathetic than anything happening today as illegal aliens strut across our open border, the Supreme Court established that there is no right to immigrate to America.

In United States ex. rel. Knauff v. Shaughnessy, the Supreme Court was called upon to determine whether “the United States [may] exclude without hearing, solely upon a finding by the Attorney General that her admission would be prejudicial to the interests of the United States, the alien wife of a citizen who had served honorably in the armed forces of the United States during World War II.”

Is your country yours or is it theirs?

Democrats have decided it’s theirs for the taking. What are we going to do about it?

They have all the rights that were accrued to them at birth in the country where they were born. If their human rights guaranteed to them are insufficient, it is their right, nay, their responsibility to assert those rights to their own despotic sh!thole authoritarian governments. They must fight for their own freedom, not assume some foreign country will provide them for them. Freedom is hard work.

Just what we need - more military age males who will drive illegally while drunk, drive cars with no insurance or registration, and deal in drugs.

Don’t forget their enablers. The ones that tricked us into bringing this garbage into western civilization. Unfortunately there is nowhere for these enablers to go if this place is ruined by the turd wold invaders.

I spent $10,000 and a year and a half getting my wife her Green Card the old fashioned way. They can all KISS MY ASS on the way home.
