oh poor special snowflake...you are the only one who ever had to work for a living, and those of use who were born here just coast along and never experience hardship

There are organizations that provide legal representation for the undocumented, they are usually run by charitable organizations; they exist across the US in hundreds of municipalities that are not 'sanctuary cities'.

You seem to have a lot of animosity toward native born US citizens, why did you come to a Country when you have so much contempt for a majority of the population?

Really? I live in LA and thought you did as well.

Don't know how you missed the protests with HS kids walking out of classes for this exact reason. They were going to block freeways but the cops kept them off.

Many things wrong with this, you just don't walk out of class and they had it all wrong thinking Trump is going to deport them and their parents. That isn't going to happen.

But please don't say it doesn't exist. It was on all the local news channels.

I live in Sacramento, I have not seen or heard about undocumented people demonstrating or making demands in Northern California such as was claimed in ^ that post. In fact, when I google "Sacramento illegals protest" I can only find a few references to a protest in 2005 and 2006 and a few hits on a white nationalist demonstration where the protesters had rocks thrown at them. When I was in Reno I never saw, heard or read about any demonstrations or protests conducted by undocumented people.

Have they happened? I don't know, I don't follow events like that in the news so I can't really say... but I will say this. Of all the people in this nation who might demonstrate undocumented immigrants are probably the most likely to do so, they do not want to draw attention to themselves.

you don't follow the news, but you post as if you do? don't be a hypocrite, or be willingly blind to what's happening. who knows, you probably harbor one of those illegals yourself.

oh really? you probably have not read my other posts. again, you willingly turn a blind eye to things you don't/can't accept or just make an excuse of "oh i don't follow such news." or that you're just not literate enough and just end up twisting people's words to your limited/twisted perception.

i have even espoused overhaul of the h1b system (even though i did come in on h1) to favor YOU CITIZENS and not wanting illegals to have access to services that even CITIZENS CANNOT ACCESS/HAVE DIFFICULTY ACCESSING. now is that a mark of contempt of US CITIZENS?

i'm more against people who favor illegals over citizens. how ironic you yourself being a citizen would rather open the floodgates toward squatters and illegals than offering that assistance to your own fellow citizens.

Please try to avoid taking my words out of context.

of course, you only limit your search to sacramento, hence you did not find that article i posted which was in BERKELEY, CA, dated nov. 9, 2016, not a decade ago. again, just twisting/limiting your perception to however you want. heck you did not even read the article i posted. and then you say you don't really follow the news, but then you googled sacramento illegal protest?
