My son's mother's family is Hispanic. Grandma and Grandpa came to America in the 40s and followed the crops up and down the Central Valley of California before settling in Oxnard. They are very bigoted against the same undocumented immigrants that they arose from in the form of Grandma Josie and Grandpa Rey.

Bigotry against criminals who enslave our people and make them suffer is not a bigotry to be ashamed of, and it ain't got a thing to do with skin color.
Actually, several of them have done hard time in prison. They were born here and that didn't make them law-abiding. Your willingness to assume things you don't know about people you've never met is, uh, interesting. But see they are bad people .....Because that what the Republican narrative is....

So did the haitians in springfield. Fat load of good that did them, eh?
You're fucking ridiculous, and this is why you'll never be a real american, no matter how you got here. The simple thought of you wandering around pretending to be one of us makes me physically ill.

I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust.

I had a green card at one time. The paperwork was a pain, and the first time I didn't staple the pictures to the forms, so they lost them, and I had to start again.
When I got to the interview, people with various racial makeups were there with lawyers. I went in with my pale white skin and got an instant approval with no questions. Now, I did have a Ph.D. and a wife who was a U.S. citizen, but it seemed like they were overjoyed to have me, and not so much with the others.

I worked in the states multiple times getting a Work Visa is a pain in the ass. It's a complicated convoluted mess of a process where they constantly lose your information and then claim you didn't give it will take several ages to do the most simple of processes and will be as unhelpful as possible do I blame anyone for saying "screw this I'm tired of being dicked around" ......No
