Hey man, I know this is probably stressful for you and I don't want to be adding to that for you. I'd be willing to take this offline if you'd like but can you please not call me a liar, immigrant-hater, accuse me of being a ball of hatred or that I hate immigrants from the depths of my heart? I think you know all that isn't true and I think the readers can see through those accusations and it ultimately devalues your input to the discussion. (For the record I want an automatic green card for skilled immigrants and a higher bar for what counts as a skilled immigrant. I want a massive expansion of refugee immigration into the US. I want automatic green cards for unskilled immigration where they have created roots in the US)

You expressed in a comment, directed to me, that you wanted people like me kicked out of the United States, and that I was not "entitled" to be here. See: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=11313462 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=11313462 Honestly, there are no words more hateful than what you said, for an immigrant. I've been in the United States for 10 years now, since I was 17. It feels like home now, and my friends, my community, are all here now. To quote Justice Louis Brandeis, "[deportation] may result also in loss of both property and life; or of all that makes life worth living." You want to destroy my life. If I'm mistaken about you, and if you truly want to have a constructive private conversation about this; add your email to your profile, and I'll contact you.
