It's like the recent stabbing in Boise, Idaho. When our own distressed college students, veterans, and assorted citizens are homeless why are foreigners being given housing, medical treatment, free schooling, jobs, and countless other benefits?
Foreign? Prove that migration only comes from other planets first. But don't fucking assume that everyone who comes here are violent.
"We need to keep violent people out"...... NO SHIT, but why should that include assuming the worst when the majority of humans are merely moving to where they think they can survive?
MOST MIGRANTS ARE NOT VIOLENT!
And if you want to really do your homework, most people whom commit violent acts ARE LEGAL CITIZENS, not migrants.
Just like most citizens of China are not violent, but most of China's prisoners are Chinese. Just like most Japanese are NOT violent but the majority of their prisoners are Japanese. MOST Americans ARE NOT VIOLENT but most of our prisoners are LEGAL CITIZENS.
It is bullshit to equate the few to the majority. Most humans worldwide do not seek violence. Most humans who migrate ANYWHERE to any country are simply trying to avoid violence and seek a better life.
So when you point out a fraction of a larger sample I say BULLSHIT! Treat individuals as such.
No, do not ask me to snoop on my Hispanic neighbors on both sides of me, whom have lived next to me for 11 years without one lick of trouble. In my 51 years I have run into far more trouble with my fellow Americans whom have legal status.
