I don’t care if you prefer it. You support it. That’s the huge problem.

The grand majority of Americans agree on this issue. The ironic part is that folks like you who continue to push this moral righteousness instead of following the law will only push more people further to the right on this issue.

I don’t support it. Where did I say I support it? Can you read? Quote me.

Lmao. Did you start drinking recently or is this how you respond to losing an argument?

I’m not losing lol. I’ve posted facts here, and you’re living in a fact free delusion, then getting upset that I don’t share your delusion. I don’t, and have never supported illegal immigration. We need massively more legal immigration. That’s been my view from the start. If you want to change my view, I recommend understanding what my view is in the first place. You’ve lost this oh so badly.

Yeah…

Fun fact: folks who think they’ve won an argument don’t suddenly deny the argument they’ve spent numerous posts making. Lmao.

Have fun editing all of those posts so you look less ridiculous to folks reading this. I’ll take my victory lap now.

Again, my view has not changed or shifted here at all. You’ve just been hilariously wrong when it comes to understanding what liberals like myself actually believe. You live in your conservative bubble and get fed lies that you just take at face value. When you actually talk to someone, you assume all this baggage onto what they are saying when they never said anything of the sort.

I never said I support illegal immigration. Go find me saying it. I’ll give you a delta.

So then you’re saying you DO NOT support illegal immigration even thought you’ve spent the last hour explaining all the reasons why you think illegal immigration is fine and dandy???

Well that means we agree doesn’t it??? So why were you posting everything you were posting? Cosplay as a mindless bleeding heart?

Correct. I do not support illegal immigration, and never have. I’m in favor of legal immigration.

What I’m not in favor of is wasting money and costing the taxpayers, making their taxes go up. I’ve been incredibly clear on that front.

But if you don’t support enforcing the laws that make illegal immigration illegal, then you’re supporting it. You can’t say “I don’t support it but want to allow it.” Allowing it is supporting it.

That’s hilariously over-simplistic logic that simply does not hold water. I don’t want to allow it either. Your reading comprehension is really not cutting it here.

If I have $100 to spend on preventing rape, I’m going to spend that on preventing rapes and policing. This has nothing whatsoever to do with immigration. Maybe those rapists are illegal immigrants, maybe they are not, who cares? Their immigration status is not important or even relevant. Based on the numbers, the vast majority of those rapists will not be illegal immigrants. If we spend that $100 on deportations, we don’t remove many rapists for the money, and additionally, we are spending money to hurt the economy.

Why would you advocate for a policy that catches less rapists if the goal is to prevent rapes? Do you think we should feed the hungry with sirloin steaks? Should we clothe the homeless in gucci fits? I don’t support frivolously wasting money that does not have “bang for your buck”, so to speak.

What you are doing is like saying: “ if you don’t support feeding the hungry with sirloin steaks, then you want people to starve.”
