[QUOTE"Max E. Pad, post: 4449100, member: 267088"]Conflating legal and illegal immigrants is a common tactic of the left, but now they have gone even further by combining criminal illegal immigrants with legal immigrants in an attempt to justify open borders.[/QUOTE] Isn't it amazing that the super intellectuals of the left are completely unable to distinguish between legal and illegal.
What a bunch of morons - thinking the U.S. chamber of commerce makes things up - oh yea . 200 cities and the police unions are in agreement on this. Arguing with a bunch of redneck idiots.

LOL, please post a link to the 200 cities and police unions that think we shouldnt deport illegals who commit crimes, id love to see where thats coming from. I can pretty much guarantee that if that number is true, 95% of it is in California and New York. The numbers are competely lopsided against YOU everywhere else, the overwhelming majority of americans believe criminals should be deported. Here is the numbers from a CNN article that was heavily anti Trump. A wide majority, nearly eight in 10, support deporting undocumented immigrants who have committed other crimes, however, an area Trump says is his focus. There has been a small uptick, nevertheless, in the share who say the government shouldn't be deporting those living in the US illegally who have been convicted of other crimes, from 15% to 19%. http://www.cnn.com/2017/03/17/politics/poll-oppose-trump-deportation-immigration-policy/
The Chamber of Commerce study is obviously biased. They want cheap labor. Any fool can see that illegals are a huge drain on communities. They negatively impact finances and quality of life. This study estimates costs of>$110 bill annually, with the majority of it borne at the state and local level. http://www.fairus.org/publications/...llegal-immigration-on-united-states-taxpayers This academic study estimates a net deficit, ie tax receipts minus costs, of some $54 bill a year due to illegal aliens. http://www.heritage.org/immigration...lawful-immigrants-and-amnesty-the-us-taxpayer The financial costs are staggering enough. The civic cost is even greater, as this article explains. http://www.hoover.org/research/civic-cost-illegal-immigration Illegal immigration inevitably leads to tribalism and disrespect for the law, two things that have been on display recently. It is compounded when authorities turn a blind eye to violations by illegals, ie no car insurance, building code violations, etc that would land a legal resident in hot water.
Well, well, well...this is called winning, again. Sorry losers, you had your fun. https://news.yahoo.com/court-rules-trump-administration-withhold-172409445.html
Excellent. Cut funds to California. There are no votes there anyway. Make an example of them then get to work on Washington state.
