Allow him to stay? He has a criminal record. Are criminals now exempt from laws too?[/quote]

The appropriate response with all the Iraqis in this country who are not violent criminals would be to offer them temporary protected status. Anyone brought here as a child who has grown up here like this man should be offered a path to citizenship.

He was here illegally, and he's been committing crimes since 1998, when he was 13 or 14. Why should we offer him a path to citizenship? [/quote]

Because Iraq.[/quote]
What dies that mean? You'd think that an adult, knowing he is here illegally, would not draw more attention to himself by committing crimes against Americans. It said he's now 34, and his. Rimes date back 21 years - to 1998. So he was a criminal beginning at age 13. Why would we want to make someone like that a citizen! [/quote]

Petty crimes.  I think you have an overly rosy view of immigrants and citizens.  And Iraq.[/quote]

So the reward for coming here illegally and committing ‘petty’ crimes is to get citizenship?

The issue of whether someone can or cannot obtain insulin is not something to blame on Trump.  How is that Trump’s fault??  Over the top to lay blame there.[/quote]

Medical care is one reason that we allow illegal people to stay.

That must be shocking to you.  [/quote]
How many people from around the world would you like to cure?[/quote]

And don’t forget about the US citizens who can’t afford insulin.  Or the elderly who can’t afford their meds.  That is an entirely indifferent issue than illegal immigration.

I come from a country that has millions of people who can’t access basic health care.  I’ve gone on mission trips to provide healthcare in other countries.  And I believe that is important.

I do not think we should be letting all of those people come to the US illegally.[/quote]
