Either stay in your country or go through the proper channels. Or work as a field laborer for pennies on the dollar…sounds like there are a couple choices here, no one is forcing people to cross illegally.

In your rush to dunk on folks who have made a difficult decision at a low point in their likely quite difficult lives, you failed to actually read what you replied to. But I’m guessing your response is now “they are criminals so they have no rights, and so who cares about their humanity.”

Key word is decision here. Do decision and slavery go together? Should we let some slide and enforce on others?
So you didn’t read the meme still, or are we changing topics now? I’m interested to hear your defense of slavery.
First, riddle me this and I’ll decide whether to engage with you or not. Is breaking the law a choice? I’m not debating whether the laws are right or wrong.
Since there is literally no activity one can engage in without breaking some law or another in the US? No.
