A quick point about DACA. Much ink and many tears have been spilled because that cold hearted troll Donald J. Trump, fulfilling a campaign promise, recently announced he would end DACA if Congress fails to pass a law to that effect (not exactly what Trump promised his base, who elected the President in no small part because of this unlawful act by Barack Obama.) But what exactly is so terrible here?

I would remind you that DACA stands for "Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals. Please notice the first word in that - deferred. That means set aside for a time, not eternal. According to According to the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Service:

https://www.uscis.gov/archive/consideration-deferred-action-childhood-arrivals-daca

"On June 15, 2012, the Secretary of Homeland Security announced that certain people who came to the United States as children and meet several guidelines may request consideration of deferred action for a period of two years, subject to renewal. They are also eligible for work authorization. Deferred action is a use of prosecutorial discretion to defer removal action against an individual for a certain period of time. Deferred action does not provide lawful status."

End excerpt.

You have to be under 31 years old to be a "child" who is eligible for DACA. And notice they won't help with parole (like if you just got out of prison) any longer.

Again, please notice the clearly temporary nature of this. And it was done not by act of Congress but by a circumconstituional act by President Barack Hussein Obama.

You are also allowed three "non-significant misdemeanors:

"A crime is considered a non-significant misdemeanor (maximum term of imprisonment is one year or less but greater than five days) if it:

Is not an offense of domestic violence; sexual abuse or exploitation; burglary; unlawful possession or use of a firearm; drug distribution or trafficking; or, driving under the influence; and
Is one for which the individual was sentenced to time in custody of 90 days or less."

End excerpt.

Meaning that in many places you will be allowed to plea bargain to avoid deportation. But don't carry a gun, even if you need one!

In the end this is a simple case of allowing people to come colonize the country. If enough come here under such a system we cannot stop them and wind up with millions of people who do not belong here, changing our culture, using our services, and stealing the American dream while those who seek to come here legally are out in the cold.

And is it somehow unfair to enforce the law? We do it when we send a child's father to prison, or when we seize a house for being purchased with drug money or what have you. Nobdoy thinks it unfair to the Forgotten Man whose children get bumped out because lawbreakers take their spots in schools or in jobs or when he has to pay for services given to colonizing aliens.

One in five people in America were foreign born. Think about that. America cannot afford to keep letting massive numbers of aliens in to settle. Nobody wants to hurt kids but a.these aren't kids in many cases and b.we can't solve the world's problems.

Obama did this to create a political machine and to fundamentally change the demographic of the United States. We cannot allow him to succeed on either count.

And it rewards the lawbreaking done by their parents not to mention it removed parental responsibility AND took away any incentive on the part of their home countries to reform. If we pass a law enshrining DACA we will tell the world we are fools, pidgeons to be plucked, and more will come. If you ever threw bread crumbs in a park you know pidgeons show up en masse to feed. We are feeding lawbreakers.

It's time we end this thing.
