Selena Gomez and Netflix Team Up for ‘Emotional’ Docu-Series on Illegal Immigrants
newbusters.org ^ | 9/18/2019 | Gabriel Hays

The series — streaming from Netflix October 2 — aims to both “illuminate and humanize the complex U.S. immigration system.” Variety added that it shows the “struggles many must endure in their quest to pursue the American dream.” Yes, it’s a dangerous and hard crime to commit. Maybe if we see how hard these folks work at making illegal crossings, risking their kids with potential human traffickers, among other crimes, we will sympathize better.

Gomez herself demands that we change our thinking on "immigrants." She claimed that the reason she “chose to produce this series” was that “the word immigrant has seemingly become a negative word.” Oh, sure, because this has always been about hatred for immigrants in general. But please, lie that conservatives hate all law-abiding immigrants in order to sour any of their policy proposals on the issue.

Gomez added, “My hope is that the series can shed light on what it’s like to live in this country as an undocumented immigrant firsthand, from the courageous people who have chosen to share their stories.”

And of course Hollywood could give a Rats Ass about all the Lives Lost, Havoc, Crime, and Expense to the citizenry.

How about a compelling documentary series on kids in the inner city or Appalachia or the New Mexico desert.

You know, actual citizens.

I’m all choked up already.

I have a heart. Go back to your own country and fight for a better life for your kids, even if it means with guns and risking your life.

Cut and running never solved anything.

Unless there’s a dem president. Or any R president besides Trump.

Chelsea Handler was busy convincing Middle America she was a minority and a virgin.

No Selena, the word IMMIGRANT is not a negative word but ILLEGAL IMMIGRANT is darling.

“risking their kids with potential human traffickers”

And we should have compassion for a parent that does this?

Hey idiot Gomez, there’s nothing negative about the word immigrant unless the word ILLEGAL precedes it.

Didn’t she just do an apology tour for her white privilege? And then return to her uber expensive digs for some uber expensive libations?

Narrow the international minimum wage gap by 5 percent a year by raising the minimum wages in lower income countries.

In 20 years no more income gap.

Yet another cute-as-a-button-dumb-as-a-rock celebrity. There must be a screening test to insure actresses have an IQ below 60 or something.
