        Person A - I don’t think cars should have breaks or seat belts.

        Person B - I think that’s a bad idea for these reasons.

        You…

          but you didn’t provide reasons, you provided common hateful rhetoric tuned to convince people to favor terrorists (ICE) over their neighbors

            I provided hateful content? What hateful content. Pointing out that people need help, drugs and terrorists need to be stopped in no universe is hateful.

              @wpb@lemmy.world already explained that the root of these issues is not drugs and terrorists flowing into this country. you dismissed them as bait. i see no reason to engage with you as a good faith actor

                the root of these issues is not drugs and terrorists flowing into this country.

                The root of my issue with it, is, and criminals, and net tax recipients. Youre going to put words into my mouth that it’s because, as wpb said, the race of the people? Get out of here, you’re the bad actor.

          Ok, let’s indulge in your racist rhetoric a little bit. What you’re essentially claiming is that violent crime will go up if there are more immigrants. However, if you look at actual data, you’ll see that the number of violent crimes per capita for undocumented immigrants is much, much lower than for citizens. Reality just doesn’t line up with your BS. Facts don’t care about your feelings.
