Level-headed discussion on illegal immigration from a conservative

I’m right leaning but in the spirit of the recent post that blew up about eliminating divisiveness, I feel cautiously optimistic in admitting that 😂 So I wanted to see if we could have thoughtful discussion on illegal immigration.

So with that preamble, i’ll provide categories to see if/where we align on this topic, and I encourage nuanced discussion!

Do you support deporting..?

  1. Violent offending criminals

  2. The worst of the non-violent repeat criminals, i.e. smuggling / selling fentanyl, identity theft, child exploitation (i.e. pornography)

  3. Other non-violent criminals

  4. Those crossing the border illegally with no other criminal record.

  5. Do you support ending birthright citizenship?

  6. In general do you support having a “secure border”?

[Edit suggestion from /u/ThePakMaRa]

  1. Do you support immigration reform? How?

  2. Making the path to citizenship more attainable?
