Strongly in favor of immigration and have had mostly positive experiences, but have had two significant negatives:

1. Car accident caused by immigrants driving very recklessly (passing on the shoulder at speed). No ID, no insurance, reeking of weed.

2. Fully 25% of my kid’s 1st grade class spoke virtually no English. Teacher flatly told us that 80% of her time was occupied by trying to get them up to speed, so she had no time for other kids’ needs.

Many, many more positives than negatives with immigrants, but think we should be honest about the need to dramatically overhaul the system. Unfortunately and as usual, Trump doing it in the very worst way possible.



I have never heard of putting children who don’t speak the language into a regular classroom. Schools have ESL classes.


Not at our elementary 7-8 years ago.

I’m literally repeating what the teacher told us verbatim.

No axe to grind. Believe immigration generally a positive, but have also seen some of the negatives.


What negatives?

You think all Americans are perfect??? 1/3 of this country supports PEDOPHILES and CON MEN and Criminal Triators!


Your caps lock is stuck.

Take your racist shit and shove it!

They bring billions of $ to our economy and pick your god dammed food.

How are you this stupid?

Illegals can't get SNAP.

Children, pregnant women can get WIC irrespective of status. I thought Rs were the party of family values and wanted to protect kids. Oh nevermind, I forgot they are now the Government of Pedos and Pedo protectors.

They also do pay taxes, and probably would happily pay income taxes to be legal. Additionally, the children may have been born here, which makes them Americans.

So, if they were legal but didn't speak English and get WIC, that would be ok?

You hurt me because of your staunch and stubborn refusal to consider actual facts instead of parroting Trump's fear-mongering and bigotry. Ignorant people like you hurt this country WAAAYYYY more than immigrants will, since most immigrants can't even vote.

How many have you taken to live with you in your house, personally?


I took one. I married her.

So, you got punished by an immigrant.


Vice versa, I think.

Screw off your god dammed family came here at some point too.

You are just a shitty person with zero brains.

I'm sorry the President of the US is a Pedo with all of his cabinet and you think immigrants are the problem?

You are sickening.

Violent crimes in this country are committed overwhelmingly by White Christian MALES the Trump administrations website.
Sexual crimes against children same.

Screw you

I am for immigration IF
New HS grads, new college grads, and moms leaving SAHM (back at entry level like a recent grad) are taken care of first.
