Thanks for posting this so I didn’t have to. I have been hearing so many people lately saying “just do it legally” in regards to immigration. Its pretty damn hard to become a citizen. My boyfriend is a DACA recipient and still the easiest way for him to get citizenship is if we got married, and that still can be a 3-5…

Yeah that pic makes me glad to live in a country where this sort of excellence and hard work is rewarded, do you have any idea how hard it is to get a 4.5 GPA?

Except it’s not fucking home for the vast majority of them, among myriad other reasons this comment is stupid.

Read up before creating a burner to chime in because you clearly don’t understand how this works for kids who were brought here.

Bitch I’m Puertorican which is a colony of the motherfucking United States and I’ll pay you money to take my flag away. Going somewhere new doesn’t take away your pride on where your coming from. Stop being an idiot.

Allowing anyone in is a slap in the face to everyone else who followed the law and spent time and money on the immigration process.

Let me guess; you’re either a Georgetown Republican who’s too cowardly to live in downtown DC where you might run into some actually minorities or you live in fucking Foggy Bottom because you’re a 19-year-old douchebag going to GW.

Here you have shown your ignorance. It is NIGH IMPOSSIBLE for someone who is undocumented for that long to apply for citizenship unless they first qualify for not only a nonimmigrant visa and a waiver of their underlying ineligibility. The U.S. is VERY MUCH preventing citizenship or legal visa acquisition. DACA was…

Yes, people who have lived their entire lives since infancy in the US and only speak English should definitely be forced to “go home” to a country they have no memory of through no fault of their own. Thank you for your wise input.

There is literally no way that an undocumented person can just “take a citizenship test” as if that’s just a thing people can do.

If my friend is deported, she will be sent to a country that she has no memory of ever seeing, since she was brought here as a baby. Her parents and siblings are all here. She would have no place to live, no way to support herself in a country that doesn’t have the best economy, and to live with what we consider “the…

He can’t read at all :)

Actually, it is exactly like the US is preventing that.

You keep posting that picture like it helps your argument. It really really really doesnt and at this point its a bit funny but mostly sad you cant really make that connection...

Don’t forget about the dismiss option for people who are OUTRAGED that a valedictorian earned a college scholarship.

So easy! No trouble!

The U.S IS home you shitbag.

Santos was brought to the US as a toddler, and has no memory of Zacatecas, Mexico, where she was born.

So, where do you think “home” is for a 20 year old who was brought to the United States 19 years ago?
