[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Don’t be ridiculous. Of course Americans are upset about immigration. Parents don’t want their schools overcrowded from illegal immigration. [/quote]

And to the OP - the issue is ILLEGAL immigration.   :roll: [/quote]

Stop gaslighting. You don’t want any more brown or Black people, legal or not, in your neighborhood, town, county, state, or country. Stop using your kids as political pawns for your bigotry. Kids don’t have a problem with new or different kids, unless their parents force them to. I say this as someone in 3rd grade in the South when our school was desegregated and as parent of 3 children who benefited from very diverse public schools. You guys are saying the same shit as every bigot in history. [/quote]

I am a “brown” daughter of immigrants. I’m a Democrat and will be voting for Harris, but you’re being myopic if you think everyone concerned about the effects of the migrant crisis is concerned because they’re racist.

I live in NYC. The city is spending literally billions of dollars of taxpayer money on housing, feeding, and caring for migrants. NYC had to institute across the board cuts to all city programs and services to pay for this. The migrants are all over the subway and the sidewalks panhandling, often with children (who are not in school, and therefore may eventually become taxpayer liabilities as adults) in tow. And the kids who are in enrolled in school (as they should be) are consuming resources paid for by US citizen taxpayers, and because resources are finite, taking them from the children of US citizen taxpayers.

You might not personally care about this, but it’s insane for you not to realize or care that other people do. Maybe for the most hardened MAGA types it’s a question of racism, but not for everyone. Many Democrats are concerned too. And acting like this isn’t a problem is not going to help Democrats get elected.[/quote]
