And the US absolutely is not respecting basic human rights. In fact, relative to the fact that the US has previously made significant effort to respect human rights, the current situation with respect to immigrant detainment and family separation (and intentional maltreatment of detainees) is worse than countries that have always oppressed or mistreated their people.
The US currently has no moral ground to preach from, and it should be ostracized until it collectively comes to its senses.

- blunte 7y agoI've lived most of my life in Texas. The Mexican immigrants here generally work as hard or harder than citizens, and they do hot dirty jobs that most Americans won't do. [edit] and the illegals work for less than legal pay because they have few options. They suck less from the government than the US citizens in the southern red states. I guarantee that the immigrants are not tearing the US apart.
