I'm about to Facebook delete some people I genuinely like if
I hear any more deliberately ignorant anti-immigrant sentiment. (I know
that nobody is losing sleep or gnashing their teeth over this, but I hate
deleting people because I hate to give up on them.) There is plenty of accurate info out there
for anyone who isn't intellectually lazy. It takes less than five minutes
to find information about the myths surrounding immigration but some people
just can't be troubled with those pesky facts.
And deliberate ignorance is my biggest pet peeve. So if you are bothered by people who look and
speak different from you, please read the following. If you still don’t understand that immigrants
are humans, and just as important as you are, it will be my pleasure to not
have to see the hateful drivel you post any longer.
