Why?
There are plenty of people who take the time and money to immigrate legally, but many of them are shafted by people who want to cut in line.
It being difficult doesn't excuse you for breaking the law.
hohoholy shit that was good.
It shows how fucked up the media is in this country ever since Billy boy deregulated the telecommunication industry in the 90's. They don't report the news anymore now they try to create it and warp how everyone thinks.
I was watching Megyn Kelly on Fox with my dad and she interviewed Mike Huckabee and good lord she tried to twist everything he said concerning David Duke and Donald Trump and put words into his mouth. It's no wonder Trump hates her now. It's no wonder he and a lot of people hates the media entirely.
We really are getting what we deserve this election.
You know... Trump is horrible but the media is doing a shit job at showing that. All they've been doing with all of this slander is make him look like he's being attacked.
People think he's being attacked and so dismiss legitimate shit. Kinda like how Benghazi gets dismissed as right wing nonsense.

Yes. Those are the people who have the time and money in the first place. What about the people who don't?

Than you can't enter the country? Why should a lack of money or time commitment allow you to bend the rules?
[QUOTE=thefreemann;49845989]Than you can't enter the country? Why should a lack of money or time commitment allow you to bend the rules?[/QUOTE]
Why should a lack of time or money preclude you from immigrating to a place where you have at least a chance of getting decent living conditions?
Obviously sneaking over the border is still illegal, I don't think anyone is contesting that. But maybe the law isn't [i]right[/i]. Maybe the law should change. Maybe the immigration process should be loosened up.

If opening the border was so staggeringly beneficial for the US it would already be.
The open borders in Europe have their advantages but it also makes immigration a logistical nightmare.
Besides, breaking the law because you think it shouldn't apply to you is retarded and entitled. While it can be a political gesture to purposefully break the law in order to attract attention to it (it happened before in the US), breaking the law and trying to get away with it is just law breaking and should be considered as such.

I'm not really sure why you quoted me. Your post seems completely irrelevant to mine.

I'm interested to hear why you think the immigration process should be eased besides "it's just not right".
[QUOTE=codemaster85;49840168]idk, his latest commercial is saying that all illegals should be kicked out of the country because one of them killed a black teenager. that's pretty fucking racist to basically stretch his point to say all illegals are a danger to the public.[/QUOTE]
Really really bad example. You can't really argue that illegal immigrants need to go since otherwise, there'd be absolutely no point in there being a distinction between legal or illegal immigration. Trump's just stating something obvious again.
On the other hand, did people already forget Trump's Muslim comment?
While not strictly concerning race, it still contradicted the freedom of choosing your religion, which is a much better basis for criticism

And you aren't going to say why it's a bad comparison?
[QUOTE=Pennywise;49840016]Holy shit, the [i]immediate[/i] downplaying of that guy right afterwards was goddamn surreal.
She basically went "Alright, we meant to have a white dude there, sorry about that."[/QUOTE]
She essentially admitted that they didn't cherry pick the person right
[QUOTE=gokiyono;49851705]And you aren't going to say why it's a bad comparison?[/QUOTE]
because theres a huge difference between sneaking into a country and working the cheapest labor job available to put food on the table for your family, and being wealthy enough to buy luxury goods. the people that steal luxury goods are just stealing for enjoyment. the illegal workers are working so they can [I]stay alive[/I]. if you dont understand the difference, i genuinely feel bad for you.
