[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I live in Frederick County, where in a row of 10 townhomes, only one house is owned by native born Americans. Everyone else is an immigrant, myself included. I do not feel safe.[/quote]

You don't feel safe?

FOCUS fool

And move move to another country because you are not an American[/quote]

You're not an American. You're a traitor and a fascist. Go to Russia.

[/quote]
I second this. Fascist sympathizers and hateful f***s get out. You aren’t native anyway. [/quote]

So my family, one side of which has been here since the late 1600’s, and the other side, which has been here since the Clovis Period, isn’t “native” , but a guy who sneaked here 4 years ago from El Salvador is a “Maryland man”.

Do you understand how stupid you sound to regular people? [/quote]
My family was here in 1600s too. i have no problem with that el Salvadoran man if he’s not trying to terrorize the populace like ICE. Your family came for a. Better life and so did mine. And heads up our families “sneaked” in too. There were no laws back then, cowboy. This is a country of immigrants. Deal with it. [/quote]

If you go far back enough every country except countries in Africa is a country of immigrants. I don’t see your point.

I can see the frustration of many people who have had their relatives die in almost every war since the 1700s complain when their wages are undercut by migrants, their school system is overcrowded, affordability has plummeted, and they wait for hours in an emergency room because of people who have come here illegally. Being mildly annoyed would seem a natural reaction, no?[/quote]

Nah. They’ll just call them a racist. Or a fascist. Or a fascist racist. Or maybe a racist fascist.

Something like that. [/quote]

Did you get your little racist feelings hurt?

Guess what, when your "mild annoyance" at an emergency room wait is directed at the brown person waiting next to you, then [i]yes you are a racist[/i]. Your mild annoyance should be at the healthcare system, and the fact that it's not provided by your government. [/quote]

1) my skin is almost as brown as the brown person sitting next to me in the ER. And if that fellow brown person didn’t come here legally, then they need to be sent home.

2) it’s not the government’s responsibility to provide healthcare for me. Or you. Or anyone. Show me in any of the Articles of our Constitution where it’s the government’s job to provide healthcare. If you can make a case for it, I’ll listen. But I’ve the entire Constitution, and I don’t see it. But if you can cite something, I’m open to hearing it. [/quote]

A lot of people that are being detained as illegal, are NOT here illegally. It is legal, according to US law, to apply for asylum at the border. Case in point, 5 year Liam Ramos who was detained with his dad, even though they had entered the US at a port of entry and had an active asylum case. So they were not "illegal". Nevertheless, a five year old boy who was in the country legally is rotting away in a detention facility in Texas.

You can disagree with the asylum law. There's a thing called Congress and they can pass new immigration laws. They should try it some time. [/quote]

Many people agree that some people are inappropriately swept up. Many also agree that some people are here illegally. The issue is that many people were hearing from see only one of the other as an issue.[/quote]
