None of us are safe. Trump cited Operation Wetback as a model for his ethnic clensing, and they deported A LOT of American citizens with that round of ethnic clensing.
That’s pretty much what I tried to explain, but his concern is that they will not pay as much attention to details and just go after brown people. I don’t exactly blame him for thinking that :/
And he has a valid right to be concerned.
Us vs them mentality doesn’t think about nuance. Especially when the “them” is “Mexican” and when “Mexican” is anyone that has slightly darker skin, or speaks with a slight Spanish accent.
Well he’s a US citizen if he’s from PR so how could they deport him? If they’re going to deport all latinos I think people are going to riot.
Tell that to the Japanese Americans in 1942.
