I’m glad they are going to a sanctuary city.
I see. Human trafficking is okay if it gets people you don't like out of your hair. Noted.
My understanding is that Chicago welcomes illegal immigrants. Why would you not want them to go to a place where they are welcomed?
Chicago welcomes women and children too, should I round up a bunch in my local area and forcibly transit them under false pretenses as a smug political stunt?
My understanding is it doesn't matter if the place you're being trafficked to welcomes you for it to be human trafficking.
But, again, you seem to think there are situations where human trafficking is acceptable, those situations apparently being 'I don't like those people.'
migrants are welcome in AMERICA, maybe you sure try acting like an American.
I’m glad all you fascists are outing yourselves for when the time comes ❤️
I clicked on your post history and all I can understand is that you’ve very angry about a lot of things. Do you live in a state that allows weed? You might try weed.
Rockford is not even remotely close to Chicago.
Yeah, but if you ask someone from Rockford where they're from they will say "Chicago."
Thats true of literally everyone that lives in areas surrounding a world famous city. Sanfran, LA, New york, DC, Orlando.
The fifteenth time you've explained the difference between bothel and seattle, you start to just say seattle since you're saying "its near seattle" to explain where it is anyways.
Yeah but Rockford is 100 miles away from Chicago. It's not even close to suburbs, its in a separate metropolitan statistical area from Chicago's massive zone. It's like saying you are from LA when you live in San Diego.
I live in NY and constantly have to try and explain, no, not the city, no where near the city, New York State has places like 8 hours away by car from NYC.
Texas: we could send them back to their country OR we could allow them in and send them to another state.
Therefore, Texas: illegal immigration is OK and we support it.
Also Texas: WAAAAA 😭😭😭😭
…because you and your ilk have repeatedly shown open hostility towards desperate people, and now there’s people who will show them compassion?
I’ll agree that immigration is broken and needs overhaul (especially for green cards & visas) but throwing a shit fit and using humans as political props is not helping.
Seriously, give them more! It's what those cities want!
