"If a child is like 2, comes up here, and at 25 is sent back to Mexico, it will be a massive culture shock. I do feel for them. They grew up American. They aren't Americans, but you know what I mean."
but wait --
Wasn't there at least one amnesty given during that time? All you had to do was present some ID and proof you've been living here, and you were "in"?
I kinda feel for them, but this poor lady's parents didn't get anyone amnesty when it was offered...
Yes, there was an amnesty. I worry about kids more than adults. My methods are harsh btw. I think kids brought up here, can stay up here, freed for adoption. Parents have to go back to Mexico. They can take the kids with them. Or leave them. I don't want to punish kids. They are the innocent victims. If they have been living her most of their lives I don't want them to suffer in Mexico. The adults who come over though, need a ticket back and a fence to high to scale.
Yes, she didn't participate in the amnesty for some ridiculous reason. The rest of her family did. This one is bizare, but the law is the law.
