They're always complaining about "injustice", or some thing not being "fair"?

Not a lead pipe cinch list, but a fairly good point of reference:
Cowardly.
Mendacious.
Unsure which bathroom to use.
Unsure of their own or others' gender.
Project their own biases onto those they oppose.
Unwilling to compete in any arena they can not control.
Acutely hypocritical and Machiavellian in their pursuit of political ends.

The point that needs to be made, Horowitz says, is that none of these "oppressed" are actually oppressed. Black people from Haiti and Hispanic people from Mexico are risking their lives to get into the US because they know that their opportunities are much greater here. There is no systemic oppression
Well, Horowitz is wrong. His argument is a fallacy. It's nonsense to say that there is no oppression here as evidenced by people trying to enter the country illegally. They may be more oppressed in their native country and the lesser of two evils is preferable.

By your logic Millionaires live in poverty. Because there are Billionaires. The "oppressed" people in America would be Kangs in Haiti.

Nope. I'm saying that his argument is not sound. He's equating the oppression in Haiti to oppression in the U.S. and using that to justify a faulty conclusion.
His argument is flawed much like the one below:
1) Organisms with wings can fly
2) Penguins have wings
3) Thus, penguins can fly

No, his argument is totally sound you just don't understand logic (by that ridiculous comparison).
I explained this in my last post but you might need something simpler. So pay very close attention.
1. Oppression exists in Haiti.
2. Oppression does not exist in the U.S.
3. In order to assert that oppression exists in the U.S. you must redefine 'oppression'.
4. Therefore, inequality in the U.S. becomes the new definition of 'oppression.'

No, I'm saying that his argument is invalid because it basically says that there is no oppression in the USA or illegals wouldn't be trying to get in.
E.g. Minor oppression in USA. Heavy oppression in their homeland. Less oppression is preferable.
His argument is garbage

Virtually, no there isn't.

Illegals entering this country is not evidence that no one is oppressed here. It's indicative of their belief that they will be better off here for any number of possible reasons
