    there are perfectly legal methods of obtaining a valid visa or other immigration documentation.

    Extremely difficult legal methods that rarely work out, especially if you’re poor and not from Europe.

    You might as well just say, “only rich people should be allowed to emigrate.”

        Okay, what does that have to do with anything I said? Is she poor? I doubt it.

          they’re not rich - they’ve got 5 kids and they’re not from Europe. I was just refuting your point because you’re wrong. accept it

                How am I deflecting? I was talking about immigration, not citizenship.
