Mexico to Peru, China to Egypt, Somalia to Nigeria. So why single out the US to complain about? Seems to me it's the people trying to oppress people and take their homelands who are complaining about people being oppressed.

over half of those illegals captured by ICE last week had criminal records. And those do not include jaywalking, they are assault and serious stuff.
Round em up and send em back to whatever crap hole they came from.
AND put the oakland mayor in chains too.
