I don't think you understan what this is about.  DACA protected the children of people who came here.  These are kids who may only know America, speak only English and have no connection to their parents country.  They pay taxes, they don't commit crimes (a key part of DACA) and are caught between a war that they were basically born into.  DACA reconsized the undue hardship placed on them and asked sought to protect them.  This has nothing to do with work visas.   They don't get entitlements like the rest of us but they do work and pay taxes... which honestly isn't fair anyway but who is counting.

I'm black and American and roundly rejecct what you said.   Most american's are actually the product of immigration and that is not fake.  America exists because of a war against England.   And the colony exist because of the people who were actually here were stamped out... you know, the real natives... Factually everyone either immigrated or was a slave.  In my case, it is slavery but that doesn't make me any less American than you.   

I understand it fine. Their parents crossed the border illegally with their children and lived here illegally for years without ever trying to become legal citizens. The parents should be deported and their kids should go with them. I don't believe in rewarding bad behavior whatsoever. They can easily live in canada or stay there while they apply for citizenship in the states. They are more than welcome to apply for citizenship to the US from the outside.

Colonization =/= Immigration ... 

The vast majority of american land didn't even have a claim of sovereignty. It's like this, just because a territory is inhabited doesn't mean that the territory is recognized as a seperate state ... 

Natives weren't killed because of violent conflicts, it's mostly cause of germs such as smallpox, measles, mumps and flu that their population declined that Americans were able to easily grow their land ... 

Of course slavery didn't make anyone less American at the time but that doesn't mean illegally crossing the border should make you American ... 

My contacts meaning my friends and relatives. I don't want to talk more bullshit with you anymore. I mean you said it yourself. You benefited from such. Clearly you think abusing the system is about as equal as it gets. And favoring a particular group of people is a just system when they themselves have set up a rule to be followed. What's worse is that you actually seem to not want anything done about preventing future abuses. It's ok to have socialistic sides in a goverment but to make it so that it is abusable is nothing short of stupidity.

Yeah. Laugh at us. I honestly feel stupid now that I see how people like you who in a way percieve us as some entitled son of a bitches who deserve no say in this.  Those sacrificed years to be away from relatives and unable to visit them. You people make it seem like you have the utmost right not to suffer.

And also thanks for skimming through my damn post.

I'm also done with this thread as I'm feeling way too much like a "feminist" now seeing as how victimized I feel with how people percieve this mess and the actions to be taken. Only the ironic thing is, the victimization is actually happening.

Good.

Maybe this will pressure congress to actually enact some meaningful immigration reform.

Trump was right to end DACA. It was an unconstitutional abuse of power for Obama to start it in the 1st place.

#fakehistory

People seem to forgot that a large majority of the people lived in non-slave states during the founding of the republic. 

2nd the US did not start slavery here. We were subjects of the British crown and they started it. I agree with the discription "birth defect" about slavery. It took about 70 years to fully ditch it. Which would be like from like from now to the beginning of the cold war. 

And lastly it is a bit ingenuous to judge our ancestors by our modern moral norms. Slavery had always been a thing since the begginning of humanity. It was not until the industrial revolution that people started to actually care on a wide scale about the practice. Why then? Because it was no longer the most economic method. Machines are our slaves now. Also if you think about it in 150 years I am sure our descendents will find something we do that to us is "normal" to be barbaric. Maybe abortion, maybe something else we probably don't know right now which is why we do it... same applies to them (our ancestors). 

Really? Hes a billionair, hes exactly what people strife in the US, this is America.

Let it go, all it takes to be american is getting citizenship and he knows the law doesn't support him one bit in this case ...
