Not really migrants.

as the two were granted citizenship approximately four years ago.

They are immigrants who are citizens.

Sounds like they didn’t go to prison because of their age. Typically a 16 year old wouldn’t go to prison in the United States either.

Heck, if they are prominent in the church or on the football team the community will attack the girl in the US. The fact that the right will use something like this to make it about immigration, when in fact you can go to Texas and find that there are many cases of Christian's raping minors and getting away with it. Trump's spiritual advisor was recently found to have molested a 12 year old girl for years and still hasn't faced any jail time.

"Immigrant" and "migrant" are synonyms, what are you talking about?

You should be aware that in Sweden the far right party talks about "immigrants" "replacing you" even if they are born in sweden and even if the have only one parent from abroad. They are also a bit worried about third generation immigrants so... Yeah. Citizenship means nothing to these people.

Citizenship is a big deal in America. Europeans seem to view citizenship differently. I have one friend who is says I’m more American than me because I was born here. He was born here as well but grew up In the UK as his parents were here for work

He is a citizen just like me. He just realized he could become president.

Lol. Minority did bad thing. Up to the top of conservative you go! I wonder how much white/Christian crime is ever discussed here

Yes? The migrant is a victim of government policies. They should not be let in.

[–] Doom@ttrpg.network 0 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Didn't you just say it was over the prison sentence?

[–] Kaboom@reddthat.com 0 points 1 month ago (1 children)

In this particular instance, yes. Either way, its the state thats hurting everyone.

[–] Doom@ttrpg.network 0 points 1 month ago (2 children)

But the truth is that it's a prison sentence for a migrant that's what it is for you

[–] TexMexBazooka@lemm.ee 0 points 1 month ago

Flip flop 🩴

[–] Kaboom@reddthat.com -5 points 1 month ago

Its a pattern and it hurts other migrants by cultivating fear.

[–] Kaboom@reddthat.com -3 points 1 month ago

Only about rich ones, why?
