“the word immigrant has seemingly become a negative word.”
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
They did that by conflating illegal aliens with immigrants.
I never use the word immigrant when talking about illegal aliens, it’s insulting to immigrants.
This will no doubt be as unbiased a piece of documentary journalism as “Triumph of the Will.”
Up to now, I was kind of a fan of Selena, and thought her pretty smart to not get involved in politics and racial issues.
No longer.
I’ve felt great since I discontinued Netflix.
Netflix, huh. The Clinton/Obama mouthpiece.
“Yes, it’s a dangerous and hard crime to commit.”
So is flying a jet into a tall building.
Guess what? DONT DO IT!
Even taking the politics out, a story about drug dealers and gang members on the border would be a heck of a lot more interesting to watch than someone who makes it across the border to clean rooms at a hotel. For this reason alone it will be a gigantic failure.
Build the wall and deport the invaders.
Or the conditions on some of the reservations.
Me to. The problem with them is their original stuff is hot or miss, more miss than anything. With more streaming services coming on line Netflix will have a lot of competition and will have to rely more on original content as other content will be on the other services.
I may end hopping around some to to see the offerings are, can’t take all of them and I don’t want to.
How come Americans who simply want their neighborhoods to resemble the country that they grew up in never get their own Emotional Docu-Series?
“the word immigrant has seemingly become a negative word.”
***************
Actually the term is “Illegal Alien”, not “Illegal Immigrant”.
The Left has created a newspeak term that destroys the idea of immigrating legally to conform to the norms of a country.
the Left omits the term “Alien” (belonging to a foreign country or nation.......a foreigner, especially one who is not a naturalized citizen of the country where they are living), and add substitute the word “Immigrant” (settler).
Immigrants per the US Citizenship Immigration Services definition must:
Support and defend the Constitution.
Stay informed of the issues affecting your community.
Participate in the democratic process.
Respect and obey federal, state, and local laws.
Respect the rights, beliefs, and opinions of others.
Participate in your local community.
Pay income and other taxes honestly, and on time, to federal, state, and local authorities.
Serve on a jury when called upon.
Defend the country if the need should arise.
Important: Once they enter the US illegally they are immediately in violation with the third item on the list.
“Respect and obey federal, state, and local laws.”
Hondurans that can pay $5,000 to a smuggler don’t deserve our sympathy.
We have many American citizens that can’t even pay $100 to see a doctor.
That $5,000 can buy a nail gun and air compressor, or a paint gun and air compressor. And a rechargeable circular saw and a rechargeable drill. And probably buy a car that runs too. I’m sure they could pool $10,000 and get a fairly nice used pickup truck.
These Honduran invaders are not poor. We should not let them steal the jobs and futures of American citizens who are struggling.
Hondurans can lay bricks, stone and blocks just as efficiently in Honduras as they could here. They can frame houses just as fast down there.
As a low income American, I have no sympathy for Central American invaders and never will.
If Senators Graham and Rubio think they are too well off, they can donate their excess funds to a food bank in Miami or DC, or send their excess funds to me, a Florida voter.
Hey Selena- hows about an ‘emotional’ documentary about the many many victims of illegals here in the US?
Crimes Committed by Illegal Immigrants
http://www.usillegalaliens.com/impacts_of_illegal_immigration_crime_summary.html
In recent Testimony of District Attorney John M. Morganelli before the House Subcommittee on immigration, Border, Security and Claims he stated:
“Unfortunately, the majority of illegal aliens who are here are engaged in criminal activity. Identity theft, use of fraudulent social security numbers and green cards, tax evasion, driving without licenses represent some of the crimes that are engaged in by the majority of illegal aliens on a daily basis merely to maintain and hide their illegal status.
In addition, violent crime and drug distribution and possession is also prevalent among illegal aliens. Over 25% of today’s federal prison population are illegal aliens. In some areas of the country, 12% of felonies, 25% of burglaries and 34% of thefts are committed by illegal aliens.”
•In Los Angeles, 95% of some 1,500 outstanding warrants for homicides are for illegal aliens. About 67% of the 17,000 outstanding fugitive felony warrants are for illegal aliens.
•There are currently over 400,000 unaccounted for illegal alien criminals with outstanding deportation orders. At least one fourth of these are hard core criminals.
•80,000 to 100,000 illegal aliens who have been convicted of serious crimes are walking the streets. Based on studies they will commit an average of 13 serious crimes per perpetrator.
•Illegal aliens are involved in criminal activities at a rate that is 2-5 times their representative proportion of the population.
•In 1980, our Federal and state facilities held fewer than 9,000 criminal aliens but at the end of 2003, approximately 267,000 illegal aliens were incarcerated in U.S. correctional facilities at a cost of about $6.8 billion per year.
•At least 4.5 million pounds of cocaine with a street value of at least $72 billion is smuggled across the southern border every year. ..
•56% of illegal aliens charged with a reentry offense had previously been convicted on at least 5 prior occasions.
•Illegal aliens charged with unlawful reentry had the most extensive criminal histories. 90% had been previously arrested. Of those with a prior arrest, 50% had been arrested for violent or drug-related felonies.
•Illegal aliens commit between 700,000 to 1,289,000 or more crimes per year.
•Illegal aliens commit at least 2,158 murders each year – a number that represents three times greater participation than their proportion of the population.
•Illegal alien sexual predators commit an estimated 130,909 sexual crimes each year.
•There may be as many as 240,000 illegal alien sex offenders circulating throughout America. Based on studies, they will commit an average of 8 sex crimes per perpetrator before being caught.
•Nearly 63% of illegal alien sex offenders had been deported on another offense prior to committing the sex crime.
•Only 2% of the illegal alien sex offenders in one study had no history of criminal behavior, beyond crossing the border illegally.
•In Operation Predator, ICE arrested and deported 6,085 illegal alien pedophiles. Some studies suggest each pedophile molests average of 148 children. If so, that could be as many as 900,580 victims.
•Nobody knows how big the Sex Slave problem is but it is enormous.
•The very brutal MS-13 gang has over 15,000 members and associates in at least 115 different cliques in 33 states.
•The overall financial impact of illegal alien crimes is estimated at between $14.4 and $81 billion or more per year. Factor in the crime as a result of the cocaine and other drugs being smuggled in and the number may reach $150 billion per year.
[[Congressman Steve King (R-IA) estimates that illegal alien drunk drivers kill 13 Americans every day — that’s a death toll of 4,745 per year.[4]
The 23 percent criminal traffic offenders figure is only part of the overall picture. According to the Center for Immigration Studies, another 23 percent, more than 43,000 illegal aliens, were convicted of drug offenses. The violent crime category of assault, robbery, sexual assault, and family offenses comes to 12 percent. The non-violent crime grouping of larceny, fraud, and burglary totaled seven percent, and on the list goes — equaling 100 percent of illegal aliens who have been through the criminal justice system and inflicted thousands to millions in cost per alien on the system, for issues having nothing to do with their illegal entry into the country]]

She’s probably a Leftist brain dead dolt, but I still see it as the Leftists capitalizing on an uninformed clueless person, ripe for being exploited at the expense of our nation. We have very reasoned immigration policies.
Is she capable of grasping that allowing Mexican nationals to flood our nation, is racist against all the other nationalities around the world that would like to come here, but can’t in the same numbers?
Probably? She was indoc’d early as a Disneyite so there is that. Would Walt be turning in his grave? I don’t know.
Netflix stinks.
Why yes, yes it does.
