    I keep getting told that the "illegals" in my town somehow all at once -

    -don't pay any taxes

    -get a ton of money from the goverment

    -get paid a ton of money at the plant "they all" work at

    -collect welfare

    -do all of the crime

    -never get punished for doing all of the crime

    You forgot they're also criminal masterminds who smuggle in thousands of dollars in drugs over the border, kill hundreds of Americans without getting caught, are master engineers that build massive tunnel networks underground, and scam the government out of billions of dollars via welfare programs.

    Honestly I wish immigrants were the people conservatives think they are because they'd have an insane set of skills we could use.

    No matter where you are in the world, this anti-immigrant sentiment is the same.
