I have to agree with this one.  The folks I love the most dear speculate and live by that shit.  The shit they speculate because they're too old and lazy to pick up a phone and even Google something before they talk about it.  Because Google tells the truth.  Trust me.

Oh Yes! I love a Game of 'Selective Morality!"  Lessee, how many  Americans die every year from lack of health care? How many veterans have been dismissed and ignored by the Republicans?  Ooo, and how many American women die from poor hospital care from childbirth? No concern for the middle eastern moms and babes blown to bits by our bombs?
Oh yes, according to the 'Selective Moral Majority' only white fetuses matter. Already born, of any color, not so much.

Stop the Squirrel pointing. Its paper thin and tiresome. Especially while you conveniently delete context and other facts.
Answering with yet another squirrel pointing does not count as an intelligent rebuttal.  Or are you only good at misdirection and Hannity Insanity pull-string talking points?
 
Soooo, we let in more undocumented people who need all of these things also once they're here that the rest of us aren't getting?  I'm failing to see your point, actually.  I'm a veteran with PTSD but I have a job and insurance.  I wouldn't dare step foot into a VA medical center for anything even though I'm entitled to it.  If I can pay my way for it, I leave it for those who really need it who aren't getting it.

Oh and you were talking about a real estate salesman earlier ?  IIRC you've been talking about moving out of California.  I would suggest that you expedite that plan.  With your new governor and his sanctuary stuff and all that you might want to put your house up for sale while there are still buyers.  1 million people net have left California in that past decade.  The people who could afford your house are leaving in droves.  Being from there, a lot of people I know who I grew up with have had it and are making their plans to boogie, pronto.
 

Seriously man. 7 seconds  and the second (first one didn't have an obvious pretty picture) link on google:

How many have to die before you see a problem going on ?  What is your number ?
 

The point of what I posted: it is not the illegal immigrants that are the wave of terror in the nation. They are, comparatively, less worrisome. If you're just wanting to have a group of people to demonize, the answer is in front of you, if you're sincere:

Las Vegas Shooter:
Not an immigrant

Sandy Hook Shooter:
Not an immigrant.

Parkland Shooter:
Not an immigrant.

Charleston Church Shooter:
Not an immigrant.

Aurora Movie Theater Shooter:
Not an immigrant.

Gabby Giffords Shooter:
Not an immigrant.

 
No, these are the ones that were sensationalized by the media.  You don't hear about the craptastic numbers of people that suffer under the tarp, because they aren't news-worthy.  Media is socially driven now and if it isn't appetizing to the liberal masses, it isn't news.

ICE has a chart
that puts the number for all of 2017 (It's certainly too early for an official 2018 total) of 2028 homicides.

Of course, discerning and thoughtful people will immediately wonder what subset of that 2K were caused by people that entered illegally at the border and would've been stopped by a wall. The majority of our illegal aliens are VISA overstays, not murderous hordes from a caravan  that stormed the border.

So we're just assuming all those homicides are of American citizens? Seems a bit of a stretch.
