The fact that the US has negligently allowed you to squat on its land instead of evicting you immediately like Canada might doesn't mean you shouldn't think long-term. NightMareBunny posted... when a president threatens to deport people who are being punished for being brought here illegally as children...people who likely do not speak anything except English and as such will be an outcast in the world they get deported to The claim about only speaking English is exaggerated since, even among legal immigrant families, most keep (and use) their native tongue. Even among SECOND-generation immigrants (ie, the ones who were *born* here rather than immigrating like these kids did), 85% speak at least some Spanish at home http://www.migrationpolicy.org/article/bilingualism-persists-english-still-dominates Among second-generation Hispanics, 92 percent speak English well or very well, even though 85 percent speak at least some Spanish at home. Eleven percent of Mexican second-generation children speak only English at home, compared to five percent in the first generation. However, for Puerto Ricans and Cubans, two other large Hispanic groups, over one-fourth of the second-generation are English monolinguals at 29 and 27 percent, respectively. NightMareBunny posted... you cannot just ignore it and go back to the paperwork on this case that won't help anyone because by the time you have enough evidence the lives you were seeking to protect won't be there anymore The problem was ignoring that they were illegally here in the first place. They should have been expelled much sooner. Think of this as trying to fix a mistake, though. NightMareBunny posted...
