It's the left that wants uncontrolled immigration because most immigrants vote democrats. |
THIS ^^. The border, San Franciso, New York, Chicago... very unsettling. |
+1 One of the best speeches I can recall. Where's a Bill Clinton when we need one? DP |
Seriously?? All we hear from Democrats is how "racist" it is to want a secure border and illegal immigration to stop. Have you been living under a rock? |
“Immigration policy must protect U.S. workers against unfair competition from foreign workers, with an appropriately higher level of protection to the most vulnerable in our society” – June 28, 1995 "The Commission is particularly concerned about the impact of immigration on the most disadvantaged within our already resident society – inner city youth, racial and ethnic minorities, and recent immigrants who have not yet adjusted to life in the U.S.” – August 3, 1994 barbara jordan, when Democrats were moderate and focused on helping US workers. |
“The bill will not flood our cities with immigrants. It will not upset the ethnic mix of our society. It will not relax the standards of admission.” --Ted Kennedy, 1965 Immigration Bill (Hart-Celler) “This amnesty will give citizenship to only 1.1 to 1.3 million illegal aliens. We will secure the borders henceforth. We will never again bring forward another amnesty bill like this.”- Ted Kennedy on the 1986 Simpson-Mazzoli Bill |
Many LEGAL immigrants are voting Republican because they are (rightfully) extremely resentful of Democrats allowing ILLEGAL immigration to run rampant while they waited years to legally enter the country and become citizens. |
Can you imagine the outrage if these words were spoken today? Kennedy, Clinton, etc. would be labeled "racists" and "xenophobes." Democrats have got so far left since then, it's astounding. |
Lol, imagine if Barack Obama repeated his same speech in support of the Secure Fence Act and his support for more funding for detention centers, border agents, and a physical barrier....AOC's head would probably explode from being overwhelmed. Look at Obama:

What has happened to Democrats in the last decade? Why have they moved so far left, to the point of accusing anyone who is against illegal immigration of being “racists”? Juju |
Sorry, weird typo at the end ^^ |
Dianne Feinstein (D-CA) and Barbara Boxer (D-CA) on Immigration
|
So, what changed? 30 years ago prominent Democrats were very much in favor of enforcing our border. Those days are long gone. What happened? |
A lot of Democrat operatives became immigration activists who demanded easier access to asylum and basically open borders. The GOP has been almost exclusively about legal immigration. |
Agreed. And unlawfully. So, why should anyone follow the law? With criminals not being prosecuted and bad behavior being rewarded and excused, why should anyone follow the law? |
