- rublev 9y agoillegal immigrants.
- ryanmarsh 9y agoIt seems that way. However if we really wanted to deny border crossing we would. It just isn't really a priority. The issue gets a lot of air time but do you think if it really was a national priority it would be so easy to cross? When I was a kid we used to cross the river into Mexico to go eat (on hunting trips near the border). We'd pay a guy to row us across and then back. It was a well known thing. People from both sides used it to go back and forth all the time. Guess what, now that guy in a row boat is an official US border patrol checkpoint. LOL The border is a big joke.
- ktta 9y ago>if we really wanted to deny border crossing we would. It just isn't really a priority. I doubt it. If you really wanted to deny border crossing, you'd have to allocate so much money to ICE that it would upend the federdal spending budget. It isn't feasible easily. That would make the current administration look stupider that it already is.

- sumedh 9y agoWhy is that a bad thing?
- ktta 9y agoBad or good is just perspective. I'm just saying the parent comment isn't so right anymore.
- sumedh 9y agoIts not a perspective, if you say illegal immigration is good then why bother making labels like legal and illegal.
- ktta 9y agodo you understand what you are even saying? There's so many things in play I don't even know if you're serious.
- sumedh 9y agoYou either support illegal immigration or you don't. Why is that so difficult to understand?
- ktta 9y agoWhat's difficult to understand is what you are trying to say. I never said if I was for or against illegal immigration. I replied to the parent comment claiming illegal immigration through southern border is purposeful. You are trying to make it out to be about stances. Good and Bad are definitely subjective. Illegal immigration is good for the illegal immigrant because they have better quality of life. Millions of Americans who voted for Trump seem to think it is bad. So it is definitely about perspective, and the reason we bother to make labels is because we live in a civil society where we follow rules, no matter if some people don't feel it is necessary.
- sumedh 9y ago> Illegal immigration is good for the illegal immigrant What kind of mental gymnastics are you doing. I am asking you, do you support illegal immigration, it's a yes or no question.
