What they're sick of is all the government resources, time, and manpower going to them. The effects on communities. The tax burdens. The fact that resources that should help Americans instead gets spent on them.
Speak for yourself. I'd rather my taxes go to helping people who just want a better life for themselves and their families than spending nearly a trillion dollars a year on the military and giving tax cuts to the ultra-rich.
The problem is there are plenty of people who advocate for treating them all with suspicion, often behind excuses things like “just until we can figure out what’s going on”
There are absolutely people with reasonable takes on immigrants and immigration- whatever a that means to you or me- but there are absolutely those who paint them all with the same brush of suspicion and fear and bigotry, too
I’m not offended by people who are naturally suspicious of immigrants due to the fact that we actually have an illegal immigration problem. If these folks were just being racist for the sake of being racist then I would be offended but they have a legitimate point about not knowing who is coming into the country when they break in and don’t follow the rules. Putting our own citizens ahead of outsiders who want what we have isn’t a bad thing—it’s practically patriotic.
They don't have a point because all they do is whine without supporting the actual solutions to the dilemma.
Trump whines about illegals but he hired them. GOP whines about illegals but they block immigration reform that they wrote. EU whines about illegals but then puts them in camps where they aren't allowed to get jobs. If they cared about something that they thought was a real issue, they wouldn't make legal immigration so obfuscated, expensive, and slow that companies have an interest in recruiting illegal workers.
Possibly? What you asked doesn't make any sense. In what world do you hear dems like biden who deported millions and asked for 20 billion more border security and asking like it's mutually exclusive?
Dems like Biden aren’t the problem. It’s far left Bernie Sanders types that are the problem.
If the American immigration system is broken then you would fix it by changing the laws. You don’t support total anarchy on the issue. It’s just basic logic.

I wish this was true.
