Child of an immigrant here. He was a professor. He created a department at his university that no one thought to create before that. He contributed to the education of an uncountable number of students. Quite a few of them wrote back to him over the years to tell him how much his classes meant to them.
Fuck anti-immigrant assholes. My dad probably did more than most of them to make this country better.

Yeah. You’re just fucking people. Hell a lot of you are Americans too. I went to college with a woman who became a citizen in high school, and her being a Muslim lady born in Egypt doesn’t make her any less of an American. She took the damned test and her family worked hard to get her here same as most of the rest of us’s families.
This anti immigrant bullshit is downright anti American.
Yeah. You’re just fucking people.
I don't even fuck people, I'm asexual.
Thanks for sharing the “infrahumanism” concept. I read up about it, and as a disabled person. it really struck a chord
As a ~~10th~~ 15th generation immigrant I agree.
(I can't math today)
My grandpa was an immigrant and I ain’t never met anyone as American as him. Family left a war torn country and he proceeded to marry a blonde woman from Appalachia
I love you, tho, bro. I know I have no more right to this land than anyone, as we are all guests on this spaceship.
Btw if you haven't already, watch gangs of new york. Us Americans are all the product of one immigrant or another. Doesn't matter where they were from.
No, it's running out due to hurricanes.
No, it’s running out due to ~~hurricanes~~ global fucking warming.
I thought that was obvious
Not to the people who buy this shit, to them it's God's anger from all teh gayz.
All that hot steamy gay sex they definitely never think about leads to global warming.
Well, steamy sex definitely gets me warmed up~
maybe I'm the cause of all the warming :O
Has anyone ever asked them if it's just the American guy god doesn't like. You would think he'd spread the love around a bit more.
It’s running out due to republicans not funding it.
It's had to increase several times over since the 80s, again because of global fucking warming.
True, but migrants may severely hinder fema if they run out of them. Who do people think rebuilds the places natural disasters destroy? It’s cheap Mexican, Caribbean, and South American laborers
Sir, this is a truth-free zone. We must all pretend that global warming is a shocking tragedy and not a self-inflicted comedy routine.
But... Don DeSantis and Don Trump said so!!!
