There’s a woman I went to school with who posted a status update about a year ago that she had finally fulfilled her lifelong dream, one that she had nurtured throughout her childhood in an incredibly poor African country. That dream? To go to a service at Lakewood fucking Church. The top of my head blew clear off

I can get behind the idea of removing people who have crossed the border illegally within the last year and don’t have a credible claim for asylum—provided that we dramatically increase the number of people who are allowed to immigrate legally, and remove other barriers to doing so. The Obama administration’s focus

Then be mad at her parents. They brought her here when she was a child and she had no more say in being here than you did. And honestly? I’d rather have her living in this country than you and the American Gestapo you love to carry water for.

I commend your use of English. By using the word ‘multiple’ instead of the actual number, or even the more precise ‘couple’, you imply a larger number of children than she actually has without actually lying. The aside (indicated by brackets) fails you a little; it is too obviously your prejudice showing. Try harder

god I can’t wait for you white bitter shitheads to become an actual minority.

Detaining or deporting people whose only crime is being here illegally is so ridiculous. I understand we have to enforce borders. And being here illegally isn’t a right, so if you commit a crime while here illegally, you gotta go. But what is accomplished by hassling or deporting people who are just here to work

Go fuck yourself

I hope your trailer burns to the ground with your children inside of it.

Trump convinced America that immigrant crime is worse than any other crime. Crime is crime. Oh look, Nazis.

Bah, I had forgotten that. Looks like I need to retake civics myself.

May not have been thinking clearly because though I went with this comment, what I really wanted to post was a self-indulgent rant about how an ICE officer spent 15 minutes berating a Frenchman in Immigration at the Houston Airport caused me to miss

According to her brother-in-law, the family contacted the Chicago-area ICE office, and were told: “When Trump came in, DACA doesn’t exist anymore.’”

Yup. She definitely looks threatening. Can’t have people doing dangerous things like “raising a family” or “living in Kentucky” here in the USA.

Tulsa area resident here. There was no way she was going to be convicted, here’s why:

You’re right. I can’t possibly know what it’s like to fear for my life simply for existing. I can’t argue that or do anything but validate how you feel (again).

I understand how you feel, but don’t give in to the temptation to continue the cycle. That random white person asking how you’re doing has a family just like you, had breakfast this morning and put their shoes on just like you, and just wants to get through the day, just like you.

I very stupidly allowed myself to believe that this time it was going to be different. That maybe the fact that there was a video of a man outnumbered 4 to 1 with a police helicopter circling overhead getting gunned down in cold blood would be enough for a weak sauce manslaughter conviction. Or maybe the same

better you than him - you chose an occupation that by its very nature places you in the path of danger on a daily basis, and one that requires you to protect and serve, and which may also require you to sacrifice yourself for the greater good of the community, the community you swore to defend.

Also, on top pf everything else she is apparently totally unqualified for her job:
