I live in a US city whose population is 50% of Chinese origin. I go to Chinese markets where I am the only person not speaking Chinese. I do not complain nor even have the sense that I'm being made a minority. I also don't use terms such as "our own country". Do you know why? Because it's not my country any more than it is theirs. Just like the Spanish speakers at "your" Walmart, the vast majoity of these people are here LEGALLY. Many have called this country their home for decades and they don't owe you or I sh:t. If you feel uncomfortable having to look at different color skin or to hear a different language, their are plenty of places in this country you can move to. But be forewarned, eventually the whole country will become a melting pot, and stoopd-@$ Trump is not going to prevent that. So sorry to have to be the one to break the news, but the Great White Rapture is not coming.
I know liberals like you enjoy pretending that the U.S. has looked like San Francisco since 1776, but that is just not the reality. As late as the 1960s, this was a 90 percent or so white christian country. Same with Australia, New Zealand, and much of Europe.
Some people simply do not want to live in your cosmopolitan paradise, and have every right to vote in a manner that reflects that. That is why right wingers are winning all around the Western World. We do not feel the same cultural enrichment that you do. You need to accept this or you will continue to lose.
I’m just glad you stopped hiding behind it being about illegal immigration and finally admit it’s about America not being white enough.
But I can't support these lunatics bringing drag queen story hour to elementary schools
Democrats don't support bringing drag queen story hour to elementary schools, we support schools choosing what's best for themselves and if that's drag queen story hour, then so be it. I thought Republicans were supposed to be all about individual liberties and schools having choice.
allowing transgender conversions for kids under 18
Democrats don't support transgender conversions for kids under 18, we support parents and doctors choosing what's best for their children and their patients and if that's gender affirming care, then so be it. I thought Republicans were supposed to be all about individual liberties and personal freedoms.
allowing men in women's sports Democrats overwhelmingly do not support men in women's sports, a very small percentage of Americans of any political affiliation support this; 20% per the latest polls.
I can't support them for fighting to get VENEZUELAN GANG MEMBERS brought back into the United States. Democrats don't support bringing Venezuelan gang members into the United states, we support due process. You have no idea if those people are in fact gang members and without due process you, your friends and your relatives could be next. MAGAts are willfully stupid and don't understand context or nuance.
Two relevant quotes, ironically by 2 Martins, I don't expect you to "get it," that would require >60 IQ.
"First they came for the socialists, and I did not speak out—because I was not a socialist. Then they came for the trade unionists, and I did not speak out—because I was not a trade unionist. Then they came for the Jews, and I did not speak out—because I was not a Jew. Then they came for me—and there was no one left to speak for me. —Martin Niemöller
"Nothing in all the world is more dangerous than sincere ignorance and conscientious stupidity." —Martin Luther King Jr
The issue with the Venezuelan gang members isn’t whether Venezuelan gang members who have no right to be here should be deported. Of course they should.
The issue is due process. We are a nation built on that. We give it to murderers and rapists and don’t just let mob rule execute them the second we catch them.
We can take long enough to know who we are deporting and let them state a case for why they shouldn’t be. For most it should be a simple matter.
That’s a Republican value. That it is also a Democrat value doesn’t negate it.

If China was on track to becoming minority Han Chinese, or Kenya was on track to becoming minority African, I'm sure you would not take the same mocking tone to their concerned citizens. In fact, I would bet you would criticize the people moving there for gentrifying it.
White people are the only ones who must keep their borders wide open for the entire planet, or be called racists. Sorry, just not gonna play that game. I don't hate anyone, I enjoy visiting other countries and seeing their cultures, but every group of people has right to have a home that is their own.
I think Luis provides more to our country than the idiots texting operational war plans to reporters by accident.
I wish he could represent the US internationally, but I've always rooted for him as an honorary American. Dude was robbed of a medal in 2023, finishing 4th with now-banned doper Katir in 2nd. He's got a really fun racing style and always seems like a great guy in his interviews.
We need immigration reform, but DACA recipients (people brought here as children) have broad public support to remain in the US. We have much bigger problems to fix within the system.

It is about illegal immigration. Luis Grivalja arrived illegally. Foreign members of the Rift Valley Cowboys in Stillwater did not.
It's not about illegal immigration when your stance is also against legal immigrants that don't look the way you want them to and when you make comments like "A racist is someone who knows who they are"

I want the illegal Irish in Boston, NYC, SF, and LA deported too.
Not because I hate Irish, but because they are here illegally.
A racist is someone who knows who they are. The fans of Black Panther are racists - they know who they are and make no apologies.
A member of La Raza is a racist - they are proud to be brown.
I am a White man - I know who I am.
Racism is a good thing - it reflects a healthy self-identity.

Luis was brought into the country illegally but he was under the age of criminal responsibility. Under the law It is not possible for a 1-year old to commit a criminal act.
I have no problem deporting those individuals who knowingly broke the law. They understood the risk and were willing to take the chance.
But why send back an adult who has lived here continuously since they were a young.child if they have no criminal record and they are productive members of society. In some cases they may have no personal connection to the country of their birth and might not even speak the language.

Once he reached majority (18) it was his responsibility to either self-deport or apply for legal residency/citizenship.
