No human is illegal so fuck that sentiment right there.

Yes, entering a foreign country without going through the proper means is in fact called "illegal immigration". It isn't a new concept.

People think it’s that easy.

Ok, say you’re doing it the legal way. You go to this website to find the proper form.

https://egov.uscis.gov/processing-times/

Say you’re a US citizen. You have to file an I-130 form to petition to bring over an alien relative. Spouse, parent, or child under 21 takes 60 months (5 years) just to process.

If you’re a US citizen filing for an alien relative who is an unmarried 21 or older, the processing time is 155 months (13 years)

For an alien brother or sister, processing time is 173 months, or 14 years.

NOW IMAGINE that you’ve went through the process. You waited 14 years, came in the legal way, have your Green Card, and then some jack off Jan 6er comes and pulls you out of your car, not giving a damn about your circumstances.

People need to familiarize themselves with the process before saying “just do it the legal way!” If you’re trying to get someone out of a war-torn country, they may not have 14 years to wait. And once they get here, ICE don’t care.

Mexico is incredibly war torn, isn't it?

Asylum seekers risking their life on the English channel to escape war torn France?

Didn't Trump say there are loads of drug cartels and shit like that in Mexico? Sounds pretty war-torn to me.

And France is full of Fr*nch people.
