I can't wait
. Working in immigration defense, yet being a firearms enthusiast allows me to see both sides of the picture. It's scary how easily people will jump to confirm their biases. One post on a right-leaning gun website spoke of how immigrants "get benefits, medical care, welfare etc. etc." when it is DECIDEDLY not so (unless you jump through a ton of hoops and are somehow eligible for some help--i.e. asylum).
Some of the undocument migrants I know are the hardest working, moral and upstanding people I know.
I wish this country wasn't so divisive and would actually collaborate to achieve greater ends.
