If Egypt Had Our Immigration Policies in 0 AD.

Is This What We Want?

The story is here.  (In a nutshell, a 23 YO DACA recipient was sent to jail. No criminal record.)

I'd ask "Is this what we want?" But I know the answer. Most people will say "Of course not." But all my Trump friends, even the Christians (especially the Christians) will say "Hey, what part of illegal don't you understand?" Or "Obama did worse." Or hopefully they at least say "I don't like this, but I really like Trump's policies." Or something. Some may think, but won't say "She's a foreigner, we don't need her." Or "I'll bet Spanish is her first language." Or "She's brown, she doesn't belong here."

She was brought here when she was 10. (So of course it's her fault?) But she's here, high school diploma, working jobs, no criminal record. She pays taxes. But she didn't renew her DACA because she was scared that would draw attention to herself (can you blame her?)

(Not that it matters, but I would love for someone to just once ask Trump what DACA stands for. Guessing he doesn't know.)

You can think what you want, but this kind of crap makes me sick. I never thought Americans were like this. We're the "melting pot." We take your "tired, your pour, your huddled masses, yearning to be free." But not any more. And it turns out, it's not just Trump, it's many of my friends too.

I'm sure you all realize, though, that if Egypt had immigration policies like we do, Herod would have killed Jesus before he was 2. (And yes, I know that God would have protected him. But apparently He doesn't protect this woman.) Sorry if that makes you uncomfortable, but it's true.

And of course, this is just one of hundreds. It's not isolated. This is what we get from having Stephen Miller, a white supremacist, telling Trump what to do. Honestly, on his own, I don't think Trump would do this. But he's really too wishy-washy to come up with his own policies. So he does whatever is cruelest I guess. Honestly, I'm not sure what his standards are. I know empathy and common sense don't make the cut.

Yeah, but I'm just a libtard snowflake. What do I know?
