According to Pew Research, more foreigners make up the US population today than ever recorded. People here are allowed to question who is coming.


>People here are allowed to question

I don't get why you have to obfuscate like this. You aren't against limitations for questioning. You wont find any sensible person that is against immigration enforcement completely.

What you want is the ability for your side to carry out its will unobstructed by any legal process, because you fundamentally believe what they are doing is right, and the other side is evil.

Just say that instead of pretending that its about the law.


I will always find it weird that people who think the fact their consciousness randomly popped into existence through pure luck in a privileged country means that they deserve it more than someone who popped into existence somewhere else.

Even that aside, how does that give them the right to infringe on the rights and privacy of citizens?


Not sure about the "ever recorded" part - how far back are we talking? There were some pretty massive waves of illegal aliens flooding the East Coast back in the 1600s.


The United States didn't exist in the 1600s.


What even is a foreigner in a place like the USA?


The US is a country of immigrants. It was made by people coming from overseas. Never forget that.
