I get that Texas is cool with illegal immigration now. Hopefully they get processed quickly, given temporary visas, and shipped back to Texas where they will then be legal and ready to work.

"We cannot allow buses with people needing our help to arrive without warning at any hour of day and night,” Adams said. “This not only prevents us from providing assistance in an orderly way, it puts those who have already suffered so much in danger.”
Guys, I don’t think he gets it yet.

No he doesn’t

Zero self awareness
PizzaMane@lemm.ee 8 months ago
No he probably does. Yall just can’t seem to understand that immigration should be allowed, but spread out.
Yall just straight up don’t want immigrants at all.

Who said they “don’t want immigrants at all”? I haven’t seen that argument made anywhere.
PizzaMane@lemm.ee 8 months ago
Then you don’t know how to read between the lines.
jimbolauski@lemm.ee 8 months ago
From your source
It doesn’t require reading between the lines but it seems like Trump is against illegal immigration. You do know there is a difference between immigration and illegal immigration don’t you?
Again who has said they “don’t want immigrants at all”?
wintermute_oregon@lemm.ee 8 months ago
Nobody. Liberals just like to skree. Trump has asked for more legal immigration. He is against illegal immigration.

We think it should be allowed, but 2.4 million illegals in 2023 alone is a bit much. And thats just the ones we know about. The US is 340 million people, more than likely more than 1% is here illegally.

So yes, we agree. Probably just a matter of where to draw the line. Personally it should be strict, and the first instance of a crime, including illegally immigrating, should result in deportation.

If we need the labor, we need to make it easier for people to come here to work. Personally I’m not sold we need the labor. As long as we have people on welfare, we have surplus labor.

So in other words, what I said is true.

Are you advocating for immigration in general, or illegal immigration specifically?
Avg@lemm.ee 8 months ago
No one is illegal, they are undocumented seeking asylum that is provided by US law.
OnlyTakesLs@sh.itjust.works 8 months ago
Common myth. The way you’re supposed to seek asylum is to apply at a border checkpoint or at an embassy. And asking for asylum after you get caught illegally immigrating is a separate act from illegally immigrating.
