A three-year extension means nothing if, on average, it takes eight years to negotiate the immigration process.

@Graylight but yet the democrats haven't in the years since the illegal action of Obama to start negation on daca
Graylight · 51-55, F
@Mountainlady16 are you talking about an executive order? Because if that's even legal, then Trump is guilty of illegal acts by a factor of 10 compared to Obama.
Mountainlady16 · 22-25, F
@Graylight executive orders aren't illegal but giving legal status to criminals are
Graylight · 51-55, F
@Mountainlady16 When did that ever happen?
Mountainlady16 · 22-25, F
@Graylight when Obama created daca

@Mountainlady16 The Constitution of the United States - you've heard of that? - grants certain rights to all undocumented immigrants. Children who are brought to this country by a parent commit no illegal act, therefore they are not criminals, therefore you're argument is inane. I'll let you look up that word on your own.

Incidentallly, In announcing DACA, Obama emphasized that it was a temporary policy. He did not issue an executive order. Rather, the policy was released by the Department of Homeland Security.

@Graylight the constitution grants rights to citizens of the US not criminals
Graylight · 51-55, F
@Mountainlady16 Well, that's okay then, because immigrants aren't legally considered criminals.

And yes, the Constitution does offer rights to "criminals."

@Graylight they have broken laws by being here without proper documentation when you break a law you have committed a crime. And multiple entrances and deportation evantually becomes a felony
Graylight · 51-55, F
@Mountainlady16 And treating people worse and worse eventually becomes murder. What's your point? We should convict and punish people for what they[i]might[/i] do? I'm quite sure you're this strict about those who defraud, neglect children and hurt animals.
Mountainlady16 · 22-25, F
@Graylight illegal entrance or over stay on a visa should be a felony the first time. That sure would curve these criminals but than your type wants them to cone
Graylight · 51-55, F
@Mountainlady16 How have they negatively impacted your life? Other than by being brown?
Mountainlady16 · 22-25, F
@Graylight let's see taking up housing, spaces in public schools and jobs
Mountainlady16 · 22-25, F
@Graylight illegal immigrants are part of why public school is so overcrowded a reason other than that they become practically liberal brainwashing camps my kids will never attend one
Graylight · 51-55, F

@Graylight every citizen is impacted by illegals
Graylight · 51-55, F
For the 3rd time...

How have you personally bern impacted by immigrants?
Mountainlady16 · 22-25, F
@Graylight every citizen of the US is impacted now if I gone to public school Id been impacted by the illegals in my school taking up room making the teachers have less time for each student. My kids do go to daycare on campus of my college were kids of illegals who are to lazy to speak English at home go. If my husbands boss wasn't very careful about hiring noncitizens by requiring proof like a birth certificate of citizenship in the US than he may not have a job. Illegals take jobs from actual citizens. They require special attention in school and daycare's cause their parents are to lazy to learn English and teach them

@Graylight but do I interact much with Mexicans and other minorities no I live in a majority white community. There is a trailer park which is mostly Mexican in our town but they mostly stick to themselves
Graylight · 51-55, F
@Mountainlady16 So you can't answer the question.
Mountainlady16 · 22-25, F
@Graylight I answered it that every citizen is impacted by illegals when they take a job, a house, a place in our public school system. Things that legal immigrants and citizens should only get.
Graylight · 51-55, F
@Mountainlady16 You are blind and willfully ignorant. We won't even touch your racism.
Mountainlady16 · 22-25, F
@Graylight why because I believe that illegals shouldn't be allowed anything but a plane trip back
