As a non-American, I'm just wondering, why won't you help these people get legal citizenship status since it's clear as day most people want them in?

Why won't you protest against current citizenship rules, since it's clear you want them to be changed?

edit: I see it's just a simple "f** ice" and "you need to go" case. I'll show myself out

It’s not just a simple case it’s an extremely contentious issue the country is deeply divided on based on location and political leanings.

> since it's clear as day most people want them in?

Not sure how you concluded this. Particularly for unskilled labour.

  • It’s an easy conclusion to come to if your only view of the US comes from moderated online spaces and the news media.

  • Well if ICE deports illegal immigrants, and you're anti-ICE, then you do want those illegal immigrants? Or how is this supposed to work?

    • > if ICE deports illegal immigrants, and you're anti-ICE, then you do want immigrants?

      No. I’m anti-murder.

      This logic is like saying someone who objects to the Nazis is racist against Germans.
