Have a little empathy. Jose had no choice in his parents’ decision. Imagine how you would feel if you found out tomorrow that your parents committed fraud and your legal status was annulled?

Five Presidential elections ago, I was a senior in high school voting in my first election. In Alabama, they finally repealed a law banning interracial marriages, but about 1 in 3 voters choose to oppose the repeal. In my home State of California, we voted 3:2 to ban same-sex marriages, even though none had been…

The Obama administration banned the transfer of tracked armored vehicles, bayonets, and grenade launchers to police departments.

Unlawful entry into the US is not usually a crime. It is a civil offense. Also, even in the cases where it is charged as a crime, the average age of entry of a DACA recipient into the US is six years, meaning most are far too young to have mens rea, meaning that they could not be guilty of a criminal act by entering…

The average DACA recipient is 26 and arrived in the US at age 6, which means they have been living in the US as long as a new American-born adult. Unlike American citizens, they are required to stay out of trouble with the law and contribute to the US by doing something like going to college or joining the military.

Would you voluntarily get on a plane tomorrow if you learned you were not a citizen tonight? I doubt it. I think if you think that you would immediately return to your “birth” country you are probably not be truthful with yourself.

Discrimination based on someone’s immigration or citizenship status is prohibited by The Immigration and Nationality Act (INA), 8 U.S.C. § 1324.

Your response does not address my questions. Some children know they are not legal residents. Some children do not. At the end of the day, even if you knew all your life that you were not a lawful resident but from another country, I doubt it would change things much, because you were raised American.

It would generally be violation of State and Federal laws to fire someone who is legally allowed to work in the US due to their immigration status.

You did not even bother to read the article and understand the situation. These are people who are mostly children or young adults. For many, the United States is the only country they have ever known. Most of them had little to no choice in growing up in America. They have followed the instructions and guidance that…

 Maybe you should perform a thought experiment. What if you found out tomorrow that you were not a US citizen and that you were actually from Armenia? What do you think the appropriate response of the government would be to your illegal status? To immediately ship you back to Armenia, a country where you probably…

Do not forget his arteries are clogged with KFC.

It looks good in the window, but Hong Kong style duck is very fatty, like half fat.

Paul Krugman wrote an interesting article calling into question whether the pardon is constitutional. After all, the pardon power, while apparently absolute, was subject to the later revisions of the constitution, including the Bill of Rights.

Because if they were a muscular, handsome, 6'4" white guy with a 140 IQ and a six figure job, they wouldn’t need to use their whiteness to feel good about themselves.

Which is why I think, in most cases, it is counter-productive to call someone or something racist. It will instantly shift the debate from a substantive one like, whether Mexican immigrants are more likely to commit rape (like President Trump claimed) into a non-substantive one.

Those things seem like behaviors common to people who have no idea how to write a research paper.

Also illegal in many places except on a bicycle, motorcycle, or vehicle built before turn-signals were required.

Honorifics are not the same as history.

This pretty much sums up my observations and beliefs. Trump is a senile, old narcissist. The fact that he is somewhat cogent at times does not alter that he has about as much capacity for rational thought as the homeless person you ignore on your way to work that is warning everyone about the lizard people’s plots at…
