Yes very true - my main issue is that IMO some could be a bit more compassionate, most just wanna make a better way of life for their families just like the ppl that came from Europe a long time ago.
I've seen both side and I've seen the poverty and desperation first hand and my first thought is to feel for ppl that have nothing like that but I also do understand that we have laws and they need to be followed.
I just get a bit defensive when I see the hate.
And I feel for those people I also feel for those in this country who are barely making ends meet right now. If people want to come here then do it by legal means. I like seeing people come over here on the work visa plan where people come they are paid a decent wage and at the end of the job they return home and for those who want to become citizens there is a path way to those ends.
If people want to change the requirements to become a citizen I'm fine with that as long as those coming are documented and pay their fair share like the rest of us
But the masses that enter into the US right now makes it very hard for cities and states who already are operating under tight budgets and having to make cuts that effect the tax paying citizens of those states and cities
