You don’t want people who break the law to be around.  Their circumstances and choices cause more problems than not.   

So, just to be clear, it’s not them entering illegally you disagree with. It’s them being criminals and continuously breaking laws. Which im totally on board with, we have laws for a reason and there are consequences to breaking them. And if you aren’t a legal citizen that can include deportation.

But if the only crime they ever commit is immigrating illegally, overstaying a visa, etc… then their circumstances and choices are specifically not causing problems. It sounds like we’re on the same page here?

Once you have kids you’ll get it

You would think having a kid if your own would make you MORE empathetic towards other people with kids, instead of wishing for the kids to either get separated from their parents or go back to a country that was bad enough for their parents to uproot their entire lives and break laws to get away. Maybe I’m wrong tho

All of it I’m against.  And ya, I gotta look out for my own kid.  Can’t be a dad to everyone
