Us: We want to deport illegal immigrants.
Them: You want to deport immigrants!
Us: Didn’t you hear the “illegal” part?
Them: You want to deport immigrants!
It’s like the difference between a licensed radio station and a pirate that goes on air, possibly interferes with other stations, etc. It’s ILLEGAL. (In Boston one such station
that served the black community was embraced by politicians and the Boston Globe and ignored a $17k FCC fine. Finally they were thrown off the air. A low powered station, format unknown, will wind up on the frequency soon but at least it will be legally licensed unlike the lawbreakers.
I am an immigrant...
I have lived in America for 45 years and not been fearful for one moment that I might be deported...
I have never felt the need to “hide-in-the-shadows” nor an urge to march for any “immigrants rights” (what are they again ???)
as an immigrant I had most of the rights and protections of American citizens...
When I was naturalized in 1975 I gain only 2 further rights: to vote and to hold a government job...
