Well, before the comments section is bloated with anti-immigrant and xenophobe remarks, it’s all true. Suck it haters. I myself am undoc and I have more resources available to me through the various connections our movement and groups have made through our activism, time in school and working with other groups/campaigns for social justice. The fact of the matter is that not only are we all extremely well versed in our rights, but we have procedures in place ala “break glass in case of emergency.” Point is that we know how the system works because we are a part of it for better or worse. But at the same time it’s just as personal as it is political because we no longer live in constant fear of doing something wrong and getting arrested. Once that fear is gone through knowing our rights, we go on about our days just like anyone else. In fact, I talk to ICE agents all the time in Little Tokyo when they’re grabbing their java at starbucks. Nice people.

Yes, it’s true! I haven’t felt safer than this in a while. #out

As an older U.S. citizen, I get frightened for these kids, but I sure feel safer knowing I share my country with young people of such courage. May God bless them all.

Labeling anyone who opposes the Dream Act, or any other form of amnesty, “anti-immigrant and xenophobe,” simply reveals paucity of thought. It is as if there could not possibly be any valid opposition. Of course, people who rely on rational discourse know enough to reject such labeling out of hand, recognizing it for what it is: An attempt to brainwash the ignorant into believing that they have a RIGHT to be in this country unlawfully, and that only haters, racists, etc., seek to deny them their *rights.* And by labeling these people as “anti-immigrant” they seek to blur the line between a genuine, lawful immigrant and an illegal alien. Fortunately, most citizens do not fall for these cheap theatrics that lack any genuine merit. I am encouraging my Congressmen to vigorously take up on their challenge those who dare ICE to arrest them, and to follow through with deportation. Rule of law, national sovereignty, sustainable population growth and prudent use of resources all demand it, regardless of the illegal aliens’ skin tone or country of origin.

I do wish that illegal aliens and their advocates would put as much effort into fixing their broken countries as they put into breaking into and unlawfully remaining in the USA, which is NOT their country.

let me tell u a parable, let’s say you were born, and of course you have your biological father, then your mother leaves that man without your consent, but since your still young another man came into your life and raised you up and acted like a true father to you (you even learned call him, “dad”), now tell me who do you consider your father??? ur biological father(a man you don’t even know, who is a complete stranger to you) or the man that raised you up and treated you like a father? of course your going to say, “well the man who raised you up” exactly! the same thing goes for these young immigrants! they had the country were they were born, and their parents brought them to the united states at a young age without their consent because they’re children, then they grew up in the great lands of the united states and learned u.s history and pledged allegiance to the u.s flag, and know no other country than the united states of america! heck, some are willing to join the military and fight for this great country! now back to the parable, do you think the child has to be forced back and live with a man he doesn’t even know?? or better say take these kids back to a country they don’t even know?? sounds cruel, doesn’t it???

Im a 5th generation Mexican-American age 21 and im against illegal immigration, I think you illegals should go back where you came from, I speak spanglish and im proud of it and im in san antonio tx, we will never surrender, this is america

one thing im not illegal and i am not part of your hertiage, im an american not a wetback or mojao, LOS MOPEADORES is the real word for mop haaaaaaaa

You use a false analogy. The difference is that you did not force yourself, or you were not forced by someone else, upon the stepfather against his will and in violation of law. You did not demand this stepfather support you even though he did not want to do it. You did not use his resources against his will. False analogy. Seems cruel? Tell it to the illegal alien parents who made their children illegal aliens. Put the blame squarely where it belongs.
