Why? Because the GOP propaganda machine pumps out misinformation about unauthorized immigrants 24x7 - misinformation that fuels the fear and anger of their gullible conservative base. Conveniently distracting them from their rape of the middle & working classes.
Wow. Just wow. I guess the statistic of 11 million illegal aliens in this country is a “made-up GOP statistic?” I guess the murder of Kate Steinle, Ronald deSilva, Drew Rosenberg, and countless others is just “misinformation?” I guess the numerous images of illegal aliens scaling our walls are simply “propaganda?"
Why do we care so much? For one, we have laws. Laws that are being ignored by the illegal aliens entering this country. Laws being ignored by the Democrats welcoming them in. And, laws being ignored by the Democratic politicians giving them sanctuary.
I care because our fiscal resources are limited. Every illegal alien who enters our country diverts resources from citizens who live here - in schools, in hospitals, and yes, in federal funding (these illegal alien children are eligible for free lunches AND a free education - almost always at a cost higher than that of citizens).
I care because some of these entering illegally are coming to do harm to our citizens. Some are gang members who have actually murdered and raped others. Some are drug runners who flood our country with illegal drugs.
So, yeah, I care. Illegal immigration lowers the quality of life for many here.
The question is why do you NOT care? Why do you NOT care about our laws and the well-being and safety of our citizens? What other laws do you believe are “optional?”
Out of curiosity, were you this concerned about laws the Bundys broke? What about Arpaio?
Do you always participate in whataboutism? Do you always have difficulty staying on topic?
No problem staying on topic. Answer the question. You said you care about our laws. So do I. I am wondering if you are as preoccupied with law-breaking of the Bundy's, for example. Or Arpaio. Or is this more about brown people breaking the law. It's pertinent to the conversation because so much of the propaganda of the Trump administration and their supporters is thinly veiled racism. The "caravan frenzy" is the latest example. I'm curious if you're as passionate about whites breaking our laws.
So answer the question.
Start a new thread. We are talking about illegal immigration here. The Bundys have nothing to do with that.
Stop being dense. The reasons I bring this up is that so many anti-immigration nonsense in this thread is based in supposed "rule of law" ... but only, it seems, when it pertains to brown people. I'll let your deflection stand as a response. Think we both know it's not the law you're so worried about.

My real estate taxes just assessed 6% higher. My home will not sell for more though. 70% of FfX county taxes go to schools and Health & Human services. Yes I pay. Dearly
You're inferring that illegal immigrants are consumers of most of this. Where is your evidence?
Not the pp. Former FCPS teacher here.
Check out the cost of ESOL services in schools. HUGE. Over 1/3 of the students in FCPS speak a language other than English at home. How many of these are here illegally? We don’t know because they don’t report - they don’t even ask when they are enrolled. They are not allowed to.
But, you can bet that a large number of these are illegal. When illegal aliens come here and they are not academically literate in their own language, they use a huge number of resources in this country.
Bullsh1t. Have you been to schools recently? There is a huge, LEGAL international presence in this area. Some may be unauthorized but the vast majority are here legally. Just because someone speaks another language and has a different complexion than you doesn’t make them unauthorized.
As pp pointed out, at least 1000 unaccompanied illegal aliens who entered the country a few years ago were settled in FC.
According to the agency, only Los Angeles, Miami, one border county in Texas and two counties near New York City have received more such children in the past seven months. Fairfax has recieved 1,023 children, Prince George’s has received 960 and Montgomery has received 816. The District has received about 200.

Much of the “international” presence in FC are children of diplomats and people working in DC. These children are not illiterate in their native language. Many of those entering illegally are illiterate, or the children of parents who have entered illegally. Of course, those children are citizens now. Another issue we need to address.
Don’t tell me these kids don’t impact the quality of education of other students.
