Spoken like a true liberal.

I'm about as "liberal" as Attila the Hun. For the past twenty years the federal government and the general population has looked the other way as millions of folks have entered this country for jobs. That's because the employers, and you, needed their services. Now that the worm has turned, suddenly the federal government is building 2500 bed immigration detention facilities and everyone on FR is screaming "deport them all"....in the middle of this mess is a bunch of kids...no different from yours....who came here when they were 2 (or 4, or 6, etc) holding their momma's hand who are now 20 and just want a chance to become a regular person....they want a drivers license and a job. Many would join our military and fight for this country....you would deny them that chance. Back to "liberal"...I would change our immigration laws back to the 1964 version if I were in charge....European based immigration, and keep America a Western Culture....but these kids deserve a chance.

I’m not impressed with your “moderation”

They can be a regular person in Meh-Hee-Co, maybe they could even help to improve the standard of living in that God-Forsaken country, with the education they obtained here.

The only chance these kids need is a ticket back where they came from.

“who came here when they were 2 (or 4, or 6, etc)”

You sound as if you don’t realize that a 30-year-old who has been here for 5 years qualifies...which means they came here illegally when they were 25. That’s a child about like those 26-year-old kids that can remain on your insurance policy. Dems are ignoramuses.

I see that your account has been suspended, but I haven’t read far enough to know why. I am in agreement with you regarding this. Until recently, I had refused to recognize the plight of these children/teenagers who have only ever known the United States of America as home and who love this country as if they were truly American. I guess it hit me when I was singing the National Anthem at a basketball game. God works in mysterious ways. The morality of what WE have done to these people struck me hard.
