as someone who did immigrate legally i support this statement because what do you mean i could get stopped by ice and detained if i don’t have “proper” documentation on the spot and potentially accidentally deported and somehow the government will still find a way that they were in the right. (no i’m not kidding guys this is happening to ppl and no one is taking accountability)
We treat them equally if they’re here legally, and until I’m told otherwise, that’s wha I will assume they are. Now if I’m told they’re here illegally, then no they shouldn’t be here, so I wouldn’t be going there anyway to continue supporting their lifestyle of living here illegally. I treat legal immigrants with respect and kindness, I don’t pay illegals any mind bc they shouldn’t be here.
Don’t even bring up the “detained a 5-year-old” narrative — that’s pure spin. His father abandoned him to flee and stay here illegally. ICE stayed with the child, made sure he got proper care, and actually protected him. But somehow ICE is the villain? Meanwhile you’re fine defending a system that shelters criminals, traffickers, and repeat offenders before citizens and kids who actually need help. Make it make sense.
Were this any other administration, including his first one, I’d agree with you. But people are being murdered, citizens and legal immigrants are being deported (along with all of the deportations that happened even against judicial orders!), and all naturalization proceedings are on pause indefinitely, while he’s simultaneously trying to eliminate birth citizenship. Also, the consequences are only supposed to be deportation. There are many people dying in detention centers.
fake news my ass tell that to the ppl getting wrongfully stopped, detained, harassed, and accidentally deported. these are real ppl with real experiences who are trying to speak out about it. i’m not lying to you, you just need to get your head out of your ass and look around at what’s happening in our country.
Please stop being an ignorant, brainwashed sycophant. The percentage of deportations that have been legal immigrants was more than 10% last year for the first time ever. CITIZENS are being deported if they aren’t white and don’t have proof of citizenship on them when they encounter ICE. Please educate yourself using reliable sources instead of propaganda.
NONE OF US DID. But also, a family friend on his “approved pick up list” at school offered to take care of him as his dad was arrested, yet ICE insisted that they’d take better care of him. But don’t worry, it’s not like there are pedos in ICE. Oh wait, there have been more ICE “agents” arrested for that than illegal immigrants in the last 3 years. So yeah.
ice is shooting people in the streets. its not really the time to be defending them. yes residing in the US without documentation in illegal and there are consequences that you risk of course. doesnt suddenly mean that ice has complete immunity and free range to do what they’re doing. being able to admit flaws in a system is okay you don’t need to be reaching for excuses to try to save your beliefs.
Nope, from reading incident reports about some of the deaths, Noem’s comments about how “it’s unfortunate that some legal immigrants are being deported, but they clearly must’ve been doing something wrong to catch ICE’s eye”, and the BBC - because the best way to get real, unbiased news about US politics is to read an international news publication
