So I take it that your wife isn't too keen on illegal immigration either, Most legal immigrants aren't.
Now, this is why I would like to limit LEGAL immigration to asylees:
If you allow "family reunification" or "chained migration" you have a tendency to allow people who simply want to take advantage of the system. We see that here in the Chinese community, where husband and wife immigrate, then sponsor mom and set her up in their home, then (once the government stops looking at whether mom is being properly supported by spnosor, typically a little over three years) set "mom" up on welfare,even tho she's living in a milion dollar house and driving a mercedes. My chinese friends filled me in on that.
OTOH, if you allow only "the best and the brightest", then you are literally robbing other nations of THEIR best and brightest, causing a "brain drain". Then on top of that, like in any other sector immigrants will work for less. Quite often it's not that technical positions can't be filled by Americans who will do the job just as well if not better, it's just that companies don't want to spend $50,000 for an engineer when they could pay someone $9/hr to (say) write the Boeing 747 MAX software. (whichbtw is what happened). Why pay an American nurse $30,000 when you can pay a Philippina doctor $25,000 to do the same job?
I've probably conducted over 250 interviews for technical positions in my professional life, of both native and foreign-born. Maybe we had really good screening procedures bt I didn't see any overall difference in technical skill, altho I HAVE noticed that some Chinese women were super-hierarchy-conscious and tended to suck up to the boss (me) even as they were knifing their peers and underlings in the back. NOT a good trait!

I'm waiting for YOU to own up to YOUR cock-ups - outright lies, strawmanning, and snark. But I'm not holding my breath.
I'm just pointing out what a hypocritical, amoral fucktard you are.

@AOC
This just broke: a secret Facebook group of 9,500 CBP officers discussed making a GoFundMe for officers to harm myself & Rep. Escobar during our visit to CBP facilities & mocked migrant deaths. This isn’t about “a few bad eggs.” This is a violent culture.

I get so sick of these clowns acting like they think they're patriots, or that anyone is on board with their hate. They're traitors.

Inside the Secret Border Patrol Facebook Group Where Agents Joke About Migrant Deaths and Post Sexist Memes
The three-year-old group, which has roughly 9,500 members, shared derogatory comments about Latina lawmakers who plan to visit a controversial Texas detention facility on Monday, calling them “scum buckets” and “hoes.”

More from the report:
Created in August 2016, the Facebook group is called “I’m 10-15” and boasts roughly 9,500 members from across the country. (10-15 is Border Patrol code for “aliens in custody.”) The group described itself, in an online introduction, as a forum for “funny” and “serious” discussion about work with the patrol. “Remember you are never alone in this family,” the introduction said
ProPublica received images of several recent discussions in the 10-15 Facebook group and was able to link the participants in those online conversations to apparently legitimate Facebook profiles belonging to Border Patrol agents, including a supervisor based in El Paso, Texas, and an agent in Eagle Pass, Texas. ProPublica has so far been unable to reach the group members who made the postings.
ProPublica contacted three spokespeople for CBP in regard to the Facebook group and provided the names of three agents who appear to have participated in the online chats. CBP hasn’t yet responded.
The postings, in his view, reflect what “seems to be a pervasive culture of cruelty aimed at immigrants within CBP. This isn’t just a few rogue agents or ‘bad apples.’”
And in early 2018, federal investigators found a raft of disturbing and racist text messages sent by Border Patrol agents in southern Arizona after searching the phone of Matthew Bowen, an agent charged with running down a Guatemalan migrant with a Ford F-150 pickup truck. The texts, which were revealed in a court filing in federal court in Tucson, described migrants as “guats,” “wild ass shitbags,” “beaners” and “subhuman.” The messages included repeated discussions about burning the migrants up.

And about AOC
Members of the Border Patrol Facebook group were not enthused about the tour, noting that Ocasio-Cortez, a Democrat from Queens, had compared Border Patrol facilities to Nazi concentration camps. Escobar is a freshman Democrat representing El Paso.
One member encouraged Border Patrol agents to hurl a “burrito at these bitches.” Another, apparently a patrol supervisor, wrote, “Fuck the hoes.” “There should be no photo ops for these scum buckets,” posted a third member.
Perhaps the most disturbing posts target Ocasio-Cortez. One includes a photo illustration of her engaged in oral sex at an immigrant detention center. Text accompanying the image reads, “Lucky Illegal Immigrant Glory Hole Special Starring AOC.”
Another is a photo illustration of a smiling President Donald Trump forcing Ocasio-Cortez’s head toward his crotch. The agent who posted the image commented: “That’s right bitches. The masses have spoken and today democracy won.”
Time to bust out the guillotines and execute some Nazis.

In one exchange, group members responded with indifference and wisecracks to the post of a news story about a 16-year-old Guatemalan migrant who died in May while in custody at a Border Patrol station in Weslaco, Texas. One member posted a GIF of Elmo with the quote, “Oh well.” Another responded with an image and the words “If he dies, he dies.”

FWIW I don't doubt there are racist, sexist - let's include homophobic and xenophobic as well - agents and supervisory people. And whoever they are, if their actions ON THE JOB reflect that, they should be investigated, and if guilty, punished up to and including dismissal.
But I'd need to see more than 2, or 3, or a 'small number' of posts out of a group of 9,500 members (who undoubtedly have on average more than one post each) before I'd call it a 'pervasive culture'.
Or, if we're going to use ProPublica's metrics, we could call this site a terrorist nest because of the threats SECOND had made towards Trump. Per capita, we're far worse here.
And if democrats don't do anything different, how are they any better?

A refugee is a person outside his or her country of nationality who is unable or unwilling to return to his or her country of nationality because of persecution or a well-founded fear of persecution on account of race, religion, nationality, membership in a particular social group, or political opinion. An asylee is a person who meets the definition of refugee and is already present in the United States or is seeking admission at a port of entry. Refugees are required to apply for Lawful Permanent Resident (“green card”) status one year after being admitted, and asylees may apply for green card status one year after their grant of asylum.
(*BTW, I hope you've noticed there's no spot for economic refugees.)
Take that definition and change it to this "on account of ... political opinion."

You get stuck on the stupidest things, CEREALMUSH. Like the form of a statement rather than its content. Or the 'source' of news, rather than its veracity.

Has the US set limits? It's a simple YES/ NO question you SHOULD be able to answer to determine whether or not Signy speaks 'nonsense'.

When you think the SOLUTION to such enormous problems are a couple of pithy sentences on a forum, you lose all credibility.
When you lie like that, you lose whatever shred of believability you might have thought you had. And, when you try to refute a point with complete shit-ass made up snark, you don't.

Well, pismo inadvertantly implied a good question. Although not dealt with here, because another point was focused on.
How many Illegal Aliens have become successful, valuable US citizens that you/other citizens have benefitted from having in this country?
Other than the Kenyan #44, no Illegal Aliens have become President, right? Other than some Hollywoods folk and Rappers who have been deported, can anyboy name any Illegal Alien of any worth? Who has ever done any good? I cannot recall a single one from our history books.

"At the later news conference, Castro said word of the toilet incident surfaced as the Congressional delegation met with 15 to 20 migrant women — mostly mothers separated from their children — at Hondo Pass to discuss conditions at the facility.
"In fact, one of the women said that she was told by an agent to drink out of the toilet," he explained."
Claims were made by one woman.
I think the focus should be to determine if, in fact, clean drinking water is freely available to all detainees at all times. Because it's a serious health and safety item, that appears to me to be the most salient and important fact to determine. That should be able to be done by a simple inspection of the facilities. Either there are drinking water utilities wherever detainees are kept, and they're working, or not.
BTW, out of all the democratic candidates, Castro seemed extremely biased towards Hispanics and dismissive of everyone else. The only topic he expounded on, and with great passion, was whatever was related to Hispanics. As one example out of many, when asked why he was running for President, he said proudly: "“In fact, you know, my first visit after I announced my candidacy wasn’t to Iowa or New Hampshire. It was to San Juan, Puerto Rico ...”"
Way to stick it to the gringos, Mr. Castro.
