People who natively speak English do not assume "children" means "adult children." Obviously everyone is "someone's child."

Citizen children have rights, illegal immigrants have rights. Nobody's rights are being violated when parents who chose to illegally immigrate are deported.

Be angry somewhere else. Nobody was talking about your rights or rights at all.





>Citizen children have rights, illegal immigrants have rights.

Finally, progress! Thank you. Just to clarify, does that mean you believe that all citizens, regardless of whether they're born in the US, the children of US citizen(s), as well as those who are naturalized all have the same rights?

What about non-citizens present (leaving aside diplomats here) in the US? Do you believe that they are under the authority of the US Constitution, US code and the laws of the state/local area where they are?

If so, do the First, Fourth, Fifth, Sixth and Seventh Amendments, as well as 8USC12[1] apply to those folks?

>Be angry somewhere else.

Who's angry? Not me. I wasn't angry before and I'm not angry now. What would give you that idea?

Or is that just more projection (straw man indeed!) from you?

>Nobody was talking about your rights or rights at all.

That's not really true. I was talking about my rights, as well as the rights of others.

If you don't wish to have this conversation, you're under no obligation to engage with me. I won't be insulted or "angry" either way. I'm sorry that my thought processes seem to get your hackles up. That certainly wasn't my intent.

Enjoy your day!
