this is the problem with referring to people as illegals. it dehumanizes them, no one here would expect the same of their own children turning 18, in a similar situation. 'oh but i'd never bring my kids to a country illegally' right alongside 'so proud and lucky to be an american' and 'refugees should just stay where they are and fix their own countries' 

 

there's a reason behind the dehumanization:

People aren't illegal, actions are, but hey #NewRight and Bannon!

If you came here illegally, you are illegally here.  Fact!

Sure they are, they are here illegally.  That makes them illegal immigrants.

It is simply denying the premise that they have no fault in the matter.  Too many people have forgotten about personal responsibility.  You can make it as emotional as you want, but it doesn't change the FACT that they came here illegally.  It also doesn't change the FACT that their parents did this to them.  

doesn't change the FACT that daca was created to give immigrants who fit the 'no fault of their own' criteria a way to stay. "welcome them with open arms" sure, buddy.

The new sheriff doesn't like fun, or compassion. Strictly business here, please leave your shoes at the door.

It gives them a way to temporarily stay, which is exactly how Lord Barry explained it to you.

It also doesn't change the fact that your line of reasoning is tragically flawed, but please continue.

It's a super dooper plan to cover up for Bannon's remarks regards Catholics. 😅

I'm not familiar with that part of our history.  Can you explain further?  I'm willing to listen.

Certainly! What point in American history would you like me to start? 

 

Here are some good research starters:

 

*Chinese immigrants and the Transcontinental railroad

-and then the Chinese Exclusion Act immediately following the completion of the railroads 

 

*The Immigration Act of 1924

-and then The Mexican-American repatriation
