Seriously, it's almost as though the US has a strong demand for labor, and Mexico and Central America have a supply, and that the US Government has refused to enact an immigration system that meets with this fact, and instead have used immigration as a wedge issue to get bigots and stupid people to the polls. It's really not that fucking hard to enact legislation that allows hardworking people to come here legally while keeping bad people out to the extent possible, but nope, CARAVANS and everything bad is because of brown, and HOW DARE I PRESS 1 FOR ENGLISH! Also, undocumented immigrants commit crimes at a far lower rate than natural born citizens and even legal immigrants. It's almost as though they're here to work and feed their families and not to commit crimes. Nah, that can't be, they speak a different language and are therefore evil.
