Luz shares her apartment with her husband, also from Mexico and also undocumented. They met in America. He works in a bar. They have a young daughter who was born in America and is therefore a US citizen.
While you’re right, there’s still a big difference from legal immigrants who were granted temporary residence and illegal immigrants. The former were allowed into the country for a limited duration of time, but the latter weren’t allowed in the first place.
I agree with you that the country’s migration system needs an overhaul, however being impatient or dissatisfied with the current system is not an excuse to cross into the country illegally.
The process gets longer or shorter depending on the administration, but the general immigration rules have been more less the same. The only thing that I can think of that can apply to what you’re saying is the temporary protection program, but that’s a whole different subject.
Look at all the times things have changed. What do you think happens to the people that are established that no longer qualify and are part way through the process?
I mean the criticism you’re providing is fair imo, and I don’t necessarily disagree with wanting more clarity and consistency, however, I’m not referring to people who end up being illegal immigrants due to things out of their control like a change of legislation. I’m talking about people who intentionally chose to come illegally, especially those who do so because they’re not satisfied with the system.
I had an argument, you don’t. The reason for that is simple, you’re incapable of defending your views on their own merits so you results to these low level insults. In the end, it means nothing because you’re showing that you have nothing of value to say.

There’s people that qualified for a process, then that process was suspended/ eligibility is changed etc etc etc.
“Illegal immigrants” basically all start as legal migrants working through the paperwork.

But you can’t tell if you will be here illegally, because the rules are obtuse or change.

No. Immigration programs change.

That’s still mostly everybody.
I see you took your idiot pills this morning.
What a riveting argument
Yours wasn’t very good, and everyone else already told you what was wrong with it. Figured I’d keep it simple in case you had trouble following.

If thats what you have to tell yourself to feel better.
