There's a HUGE difference between cheering deportations

Nice way of saying some people deserve humanity others don’t. Conditional morality. You’re acting like crossing an imaginary line is a cardinal offense. When it is typically done, when heavily weighed, to escape a worse situation. Legality or not, is it ethically or morally wrong to seek refuge? Everyone wants more “secure” borders but yeah I have a heart and a brain and not trashing rational caring parents making huge calculated risks to seek a better life.

The founders of America were undocumented migrants as well. Why is their situation any different ?

People who enter the country illegally typically end up being a financial drain on taxpayers.

Slave to money. Money is your God. Typical. We’re a rich prosperous nation. With better governance and financing we can afford it. Also, I rather go broke than leave someone untreated.

A man I knew waited in an emergency room for 8 1/2 hours while bleeding rectally because there were so many patients there.

Our citizen is great, and the greatest in the world but a piece of paper shouldn’t mean I get treated better medically. I’m sorry for your friend though.

And most of the money earned by illegals ends up getting wired back home while the illegal stays in the country and drains taxpayer funded services

So they don’t have the freedom of speech with their dollar? If illegals are getting kicked out, why are they cutting taypayer funded services. You do realize, that the core ethos of Republican idealogy is conservation and self. If they’re not going to give it to the illegals, theyre not going to give it to us legal citizens. They’ll find a way to save it or say it’s wasteful spending or how it’s not needed or how money doesn’t solve problems.

You’re right leaning, you should know all their dumb, manipulative, lying, greedy ways. You know those funds will never touch the US citizens. That’s not how trickle down economies or any conservative economic platform has ever worked in reality.

So yes, people cheer when they are deported.

Hilary was right. Most Americans INITIALLY didn’t care about the holocaust, were anti civil rights, anti gay right, pro Japanese internment camps. Why would I ever follow Americans when it came to human rights, initially? We typically get it right, but only after a period of being dead wrong. Here’s another case. I will be staying clear of any support of such inhumane treatment of humans.

What is the context that makes her comments no different from people cheering deportations?

People want sympathy but won’t extent it. And then call other people crazy for pointing it out. It’s almost as if the underlining sentiment is “some people deserve sympathy and others don’t”
