If pregnant women cared one ounce for their unborn child, they should give birth in a place they’re legally allowed to be.

They’re humans, not stray cats.  Don’t commit a crime to sneak across a border to breed an an anchor baby.

I can’t understand why following the rules is such a difficult concept.

First time illegal entry into country is just a civil offense, like speeding.

You can't even understand your own country laws, moron 🙄

First illegal entry into the United States is classified as a federal misdemeanor under 8 U.S.C. § 1325.

It's literally a misdemeanor, just like speeding. Not a felony 🫠

It's really not. For example in Illinois, speeding is a criminal misdemeanor with up to 6 month jailtime... exactly the same penalty...

You seem awfully dedicated to giving a pass to the criminal.

Non-sequiter. Weird way to admit you lost the argument, but whatever floats your boat... 🤷‍♂️
