How the media mislabels and distorts the discussion on illegal immigration

[letswastemoney]

In nearly every headline, illegal immigrants are simply called "immigrants." It gives the impression they're all in the same category.

Let's use the made up headlines below as a broad example.

President Trump deports illegal immigrants back to their home country

It doesn't too bad in that headline. They already did something wrong in the first place by crossing the border without permission, so he corrected the issue.

President Trump deports immigrants back to their home country

Now it sounds like he's bullying people. It's a small thing, but I know how easy it is to manipulate headlines searching for an emotional response.

Also, some here have argued that illegal immigrants don't commit as much crime, but that's not the argument a lot of Trump supporters are making. We simply are fed up with people not coming in here by going through the process. Most reasonable people just want immigrants or any kind of visitor to get the right paperwork and come here legally. I'm not sure how that is racist.

Lastly, some argue that they only take the jobs Americans don't want, but I know that's not true. And even if it was, they still take up resources.

Are they going to have kids? Those kids are going to take up spots in schools and colleges, contributing to the overcrowding problem present in many campuses. A couple of them even find ways to get scholarships.

That's just one example. There will never be a Democrat candidate who will speak up against illegal immigration, so I have to support Trump.

The MO of the left is lie, lie, lie.
Keep telling it over and over and over.

Like Bush's tax cuts for the wealthy - totally a lie.
But it was repeated over and over.

The strategy is we know 47% of us are idiots and takers.
They are not smart enough to recognize the Big Lie that is the DNC.

The press is so closely tied in to the dems that they might even control it.

Actually it's a boxed trifecta between the democrats, elements within the intelligence community, and leftist media.
