[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]As a legal immigrant I am totally supportive of the concept of ICE. Too many folks have taken advantage of this country and come here illegally. I came here for a better life from Europe and have worked hard and benefited from the opportunities and legal protections of the US. I don’t support illegal immigration and in general I think we need laws and penalties if you break those rules. We need to send all illegal immigrants home. I can’t understand people who opposes the concept of ICE. Don’t you care about your country? Already my area Silver Spring is becoming very Spanish and losing its American identity. I do however have a problem with things happening now. I fear if ICE is too aggressive then the next Democratic administration will open the borders and defund ICE. We will see big increases in immigration- and continue to see wages stagnate and public services to be over run. I know most immigrants are peaceful but we will also some small increases in crime. Trump knows many people want an immigration crack down and I support the concept. But we need targeted raids on known individuals and not street sweeps. It’s tragic anyone has gotten hurt. It’s all so sad and I hope Trump tones things down soon. But we need ICE and we need them to be professional and effective- not a bunch of cowboys. Long term it’s the Republican business owners who benefit most from illegal immigration- gives them cheap labor. Democrats need to side with Americans and not undercut the interests of poorer folks who are here legally. [b]As the Dems became a party for the rich elites they lost touch with poorer people and look down their noses anyone whose thinking does not conform to acceptable standards. If you care about American culture- hmm maybe you are racist. [/b] [/quote] Oh, is that why Trump also imports foreign workers, because he cares so much about the average American? Is that why Trump gave the rich huge tax cuts, and the Rs refuse to pass subsidies for ACA health insurance? Have you ever had to get private insurance? Probably not. It's ironic you mention "conformity". Look at the people who surround Trump. There's a MAGA look for women (ie, Bondi, Noem, etc.). Apparently, DC area plastic surgeons are doing MAGA looks surgeries. Rs actually are about conformity. They certainly don't want individual thought. Notice how MAGA will threaten anyone who doesn't have the MAGA Group think. IMO, you are racist. DC has a Chinatown. I suppose you don't like that either because the area has lost its "American identity" (ahem.. white).[/quote]
