    Rant incoming

    Krasnov and ice aren’t really limiting their activities to illegal immigration. That is one part of why your statistic is true. like 80% (number pulled out of my ass based on conversations I’ve had with immigration lawyers) of the people ice have (illegally) abducted in the last couple years are us citizens or foreign nationals with their paperwork in order. Legal immigrants, if you’ll forgive the term.

    If all you look at is the gross numbers, it was worse under Obama and Biden. The specific “crimes” the immigrants are committing by merely existing are civil, not criminal. Giving criminal punishment for civil infractions is draconian and obscene.

    I generally argue for a country to have as open borders and immigration as possible. Statesia is a country of immigrants (if your family immigrated here in the last 500 years, you an immigrant), and that is one of its major positives. Like, my favorite places to live are exurbs in the middle of farm country (you get a really good mix of rural and urban perspectives). New [and I wish I didn’t have to say this, but non-nazi] perspectives are always welcome. At least locally, if not nationally.
