Factually incorrect. Here is a better accounting of the what the Democrats favor when it comes to the border:

False again, and there is no credible evidence to support this assertion.

The damn republicans have fouled this up so much with their open borders policies. Look at the results - they refuse to even debate bipartisan legislation when sharing leadership, then they refuse to pass any legislation when they had all the power. Now this immigration mess has come back to haunt them - and they're stupid enough to think that we're going to believe it's anything other than a direct result of their open-border policy.
The current day Republican party: Refuses to pass immigration legislation, and every mass shooter since 2016 has been Republican.
Their rot is through and through. Nothing unpoisoned remains in the Republican party.

Not according to the laws of the U.S.A.. While Democrats may be in favor of open borders, they simply don't have the votes to change the status quo. If only Democrats could enable more illegal alien voting.

Here is another Trump operation that stands out for its ugliness. Again children are separated from their parents, ICE focuses on Hispanics, constitutional rights are violated, excessive force is being used. Check other media for more information.

Wondering who is going to do those menial jobs now, USAians are too good for that no ?

begging hard for a suspension? rather than dealing with the nonsense your colleague is posting.
Do you not agree with the facts I posted? Or do you agree that what this other person is saying is actually true and part of honest debate? its just trolling.

Turns out that Blacklabel is summarizing correctly.
80.9% of the people in US Federal prison are US Citizens, so 19.1% are not. August 3, 2019 data is here:
https://www.bop.gov/about/statistics/statistics_inmate_citizenship.jsp
But being a non-citizen doesn't mean the inmate is also illegally in the USA.
11.7% of federal inmates have Mexican citizenship which is the 2nd highest behind US citizens. The BoP doesn't publish illegal resident status that I found.
Blacklabel
then what is it when you intentionally dont tell the truth to troll others?
Do you condone this here?

Fake news - his real name was "Dave Smith", and he was from Kentucky. He's just been a deep undercover false flag plant.
Sure, if you want to bury your head in the sand and believe your right-wing fake-news deep-state MSM, sure, that's your choice.
The rest of us prefer not to be sheep.
Blacklabel
We also jail the violent ones. Aren’t like 20% of our incarcerated felons non citizens?
Blacklabel
no, we deport the violent ones over and over.
Lack of a wall, and Dem open borders policy (as well as this idea that illegals are some type of "brave and resolute people fleeing violence") allows them to come right back and commit more crimes.
I could give hundreds of examples of a multiple time deported illegal killing or committing crimes against US citizens.

Toasted ... they also show how to break multiple federal and state laws.
Every worker found to be illegally working in the USA should be deported and blocked from reentrance at least 10 yrs.
What would Japan do? Like we don't know.
Strangerland
Gotta put on a show, or you can't feign deniability when people question your fake news. The ones they deport are non-violent - they leave the violent ones as plants that they can use to rile up their base and get votes. It's fact, even if you want to bury your head in the sand.
Blacklabel
tell that to the people who were arrested by pretend ICE agents and are now on a pretend bus back to their country.
How could orange man do such a terrible thing today? does he not know its Charlize Theron's birthday? (the outrage!)
their presence is illegal. they can show those same qualities as they return home to help their country of origin improve and grow by their presence. They were making such a valuable contribution to America by their work in this chicken plant. I am sure chicken plants in their country are in need of their expertise and tax payments.

"These people", as you call them, show resolve, bravery and determination in coming to America.
It's not them who should be deported.
Strangerland
It's not "can't", it's "won't". We're talking the 'Pubs here, who are widely known as the Open Borders party. Since 2013, they've been both actively campaigning against immigration legislation, as well as refusing to pass any when they held all the power.
The stupid orange man and your teammates only want to pretend they want to do something about immigration, as that leads to votes. They actually want open borders, as more criminals means more crimes that they can use to rile up their voters and win more elections.
The Republicans are as anti-illegal immigration as they are fiscally conservative; which is to say they aren't.
Blacklabel
except that he just did exactly what his detractors said he wouldnt and couldnt do.
Liberals have an excuse for every day of the year why actions shouldnt be taken. Today was the day, it had no special meaning or reason not to do what was done.
Winning.
Blacklabel
stupid Orange Man cant do anything about illegal immigration. he is just talk, he wont do any of these "raids", no way we can deport all these people anyway, stupid Drumpf!
oops.
Watch the focus quickly change to Mississippi being a red state, any weak political affiliation that can be found for the people who own these businesses, oh my god, the price of chicken will go up now, stupid orange man! anything to distract. Promises made, promises kept. ]

700 people on a day where the PotUS is pretending to show compassion.
ICE needs disbanding, it is an inhuman and cruel set up.
