What do you think about the riots/protests in the US?

Do laws matter? What is new about immigration that now makes it ok to do so illegally?

I've sponsored several people into the US legally. They don't have much empathy for those who never tried to get legal status or to even learn English.

Arresting people at a courthouse or at a school is wrong.

@Crazywaterspring it is amazing how many immigrants develop the "life boat syndrome." No one one my boat, it might capsize!

@samueltyler2 Not always. One of the people I petitioned has their citizenship and is bringing over a few relatives.

@Crazywaterspring Yesterday they caught some guys preparing molto cocktails, they were illegals.

@Steve42 if anyone is caught in a violent outbreak, they are appropriately dealt with, using legal US procedures, with constitutional protections.

@samueltyler2 Where does it say anywhere that foreign nationals are mentioned in the Constitution?

@Steve42 what are you now trying to speak about? If you are trying to push the nonsense that a non-US citizen is not protected by the US constitution, I suggest that you either have forgotten that subject from your schooling, or played hookie that day!

@Steve42 They are, not in the context you mention, but part of having a society of laws is that they apply to everyone in terms of basic rights.

And @samueltyler2 is correct--this is a LONG legal precedent.

Would you like to be treated like garbage by the laws of every other country when you visit there? lol
