Let’s just call them immigrants or undocumented. “Illegal” just makes them sound like rapists and murderers.
I would watch that ngl

also, being undocumented isn’t illegal. existing isn’t a crime.

Yes it is. Holy fuck.

Yeah a lot of people don’t realize that being in the U.S without like asylum status or a green card, work visa, whatever. … Yeah it’s not illegal.
You can get in some trouble in the form of deportation and restricted from coming back.
But on the books. It’s not illegal.
Thats what the magas don’t get either. “Well they shouldn’t have been here illegally”
They weren’t. No one is here illegally because they are no laws against it. Just regulations.
This is also why it actually is illegal to arrest them and put them in prisons or long term camps just for being undocumented. That’s kidnapping and illegal imprisonment.

The meme drag pedophiles so hard, you barely notice that it dehumanizes immigrants to the same degree.

I agree, this is basically an attack at many individuals.
Atleast, the meme mentions “sex offenders” which is more accurate than pedophilia.

Does the President get to use the Secret Service, because that seems unfair

Would it be in bad taste if I, an american citizen since birth, dressed up as mexican and helped?

Every participating undocumented immigrant can enlist the help of a US citizen in a Phone A Friend style team up.

Just leave your ID at home and pretend you don’t know English. What are they gonna do, background check you?
