Our immigration system is racist?

Immigration from Mexico is 2.5 times that of all Europe.

Immigration from one country, Mexico, is 2.5 times that of many countries combined.

I've taken the figures from the above table at cis.org and graphed them.

Note the sharp increase in immigration from Mexico and how that differs from all other regions' increase. Note also the sharp decline in immigration from Europe while all other regions have increased.

Our immigration system disproportionately favors Mexican ethnicity. But that's not enough for Mexicans. In 2010 roughly 58% of illegal aliens were Mexican. (“As of March 2010, 11.2 million unauthorized immigrants were living in the United States” Then see Figure 2 at http://www.pewhispanic.org/2011/02/01/ii-current-estimates-and-trends/)

Shivani is an America hating idiot.

It’s the opposite. The Democrats should be joining Trump on immigration if they want to win.

“Shivani is an America hating idiot.”

You are far too kind. I had to quit reading when I reached this part of the propaganda:

“Most Americans who have no direct experience with the immigration system are easily misled by xenophobic claims that often sound commonsensical, such as the (false) notion that immigrants drive down wages and make those who are native-born lose their jobs.”
