Miram You're not alone, many of us are getting outright attacked if we so mention the many cases of injustice happening. It's like they just shut you down no matter what you say, you can't talk to them. Even in the news, they were saying that most of the immigrants deported have no court records. There's even a site that documents every single case so far, you can read up on all of them.
And even if some did have records of arrests, it was mostly small stuff. So they're really widening the circle of who they target. I've argued until I was blue in the face and one thing is that you can't teach people awareness and that there's a lot of blame on others. One common thing I hear among anti immigrant people is that they blame immigrants for not getting benefits or hired at some job or another.
So basically immigrants are being scapegoated right now for whatever went wrong in people's lives. That's fairly common and I hear that a lot from them.
It poses the question; why should people like me care about the laws when other people don't care they are followed ,unless it's to hurt the vulnerable through them?
That's where I'm at now too.
There's many ways of tackling immigration but they chose the most violent route which is never okay. I kind of put it like this, I believe in due process and human rights, if my govt doesn't believe in that than they don't represent me. I'm not out trying to hurt others purposely but it does give me reason to be morally flexible if I ever had reason to. I believe in rights of others but that's kind of where I stop.
Trump's laws are different from my own, I can't say I believe in that.
